Thomas Thenfer and Town Hall.

This new building on Main street, opposite the
scenery and portion of the seats being all that
remains unfinished. When these are done the
Hail will be fully prepared for the use of those
/" Knights of the sock and buskin" who design to
" strut a brief hour upon the stage" for the
amusement of our citizens and the improvement
of their own finances. We doubt very much
whether any other mountain town in the State
can boast of as good building devoted to the
purposes for which this is designed.
The main building is one hundred feet in length
by forty in width, with ceiling twenty-three
feet in hight, and is constructed of the most du-
rable and substantial material The stage, forty
by twenty feet, with drop curtain twenty one
feet in width, is admirably arranged with all the
modern improvements to facilitate the manage
ment Of, and give effect to scenery, lights cur
tains, &c. Under the stage are large, airy dress
ing rooms for performers. In front are placed
comfortable seats, gradually raised they recede
from the STAGE capable of accommodating eight
hundred persons without the slightest incOnve-
nience or crowding. A Above this is the gallery,
extending across the house, which will hold two
hundred persons more. Here, as below, the seats
are raised, and very comfortable A few private
boxes are to be fitted up nearer the stage. The
seats on the lower floor are arranged that they
can be removed at short notice, leaving an open
Hall, forty by eighty feet, sufficiently large for
balls, dancing assemblies, promenade concerts,
&c. The building is painted neatly, both inside
and out. and from either view presents fine
appearance. The design and finish of the pro-
scenium struck us as being particularly good.
Mr.. Jos. Delavan, an experienced artist, is now
busily engaged in completing the scenery and
stage fixtures. The entire cost of the structure
is estimated at not far from $4,000.
Mr.. Charles Thomas, the architect and proprie-
tor, has shown commendable enterprise aud pub
lie spirit in the constructio of this much needed
Hall, and we hope our citizens will acknowledge
their appreciation Of his experiment by making
it q successful one.

THE LEGIsLATURE.-Tb great combination of
talent, who claim to represent the interests of the
State, has agreed to adjourn on the goth instant,
which their constituents will be glad to learn.
The business transacted by them might, reasona-
bly,, have been finished in at least two thirds of
the time, and an expenditure Of thousands of
dollars saved the State. This is what comes of
sending representatives who, to use the phrase
applied to many of them, are good for nothing
elsen 1t is mat ter of much doubt in our minds
whether men who are "unft Tor anything else"
are capable of making good legislators.

TRINITY JOURNAL.
wenvervI.Ie, Saturday, May is, 1861.

Our MAIs-We supposed, last week, in speak
ing of the non-r receipt of mails below Sacramento,
that the occurrence was accidental, and that the
like would not occur again. But we were mis-
taken. We learn that Mr.. Weller, the Postmaster
at San Francisco, is now sending the Trinity mail
by way of Petaluma and Humboldt Bay, and
consequently it is on the road for two or three
weeks. We have heard presumed reason for
this being that of venting his ire on par
tisan enemies in this way. We do not credit the
report, however, as Mr.. Weller has always been
known as a prompt and efficient officer, and we
believe this is the first instance in which we have
ever heard Mr.. Weller blamed for inattention,
aud We believe that if the facts of the case were
known to him he would make an immediate
change Our mail facilities, to say the most, are
not as good as our wants require, and we should
have it through the Sacramento valley, direct.
The mail-carrier between Humboldt Bay and thi 5
place is not compelled by his contract to carry
more than twenty-five pounds on Thursday he
arrived here with pack mule loaded with two
hundred pounds Of mail matter, for which be is
entitled to extra pay, and will receive it. 1t is
not our wish to find fault with any one without
just and sufficient cause, but this state of things
is uubearable, and our interests require that our
mail should reach US by the most expeditions
route, and that is through the Sacramento valley
TO Shasta VIII the Postmaster at San Francisco
