An Outrage.

The people of the whole Pacific coast, as
we'll as their friends living elsewhere. have
been outraged by the act of the Post Office
Department in arbitrarily suspending all
mail communication between Sacramento
and Portland, a distance Of six hundrad
and fifty miles-a route that for years has
had daily mail upon which at least one
hundred and fifty thousand people have de-
pendet, for their communications with the
outside world. In this route the whole peo-
pie of California, Oregon, Washington and
Idaho are directly interested-a people who
have never said No when called upon for
help-a people who hardly needed to be ask
ed to do their duty to the Government, but
have always been in advance eff drafts on her
loyalty-a people who. havingonc mail route
ask that it may bo continued, rather than
arbitrarily taken from them without even
saying by your leave. The act shows such
contempt for the rights and wishes of a great
people-a people who are pouring wealth
into the lap of the Government, and since
1S4S have been doing the same thing, are
certainly not going to submit to the spas
modic dictation of an official clothed with a
brief authority.
If We are not mistaken, the press Of the
coast will. in due time, create such ringng 2
in the ears of that official as to produce the
desired change. Meanwhile we must do the
best we can iander circumstances that have
deranged all business channels, rely on our
selves, Wells. Fargo & Co.'s Express. and
the justice of our cause.
There is, it seems, paitry difference be-
tween the Stage Company and the Depart.
ment of S75, 900 in greenbacks. The compa-
ny have done the work for years at a loss,
but have faithfully fulfilled their contracts.
They built roads. in the FIRST place, to estab.
lish the route, where previously it was sup
posed to be only passable for the eagle and
other high flying birds, strong of wing and
Indifferent as to the altitude attained. This
they have done at great expense, and to the
advantage of all the citizens of the Pacific
slope--a people who, in a months time,
have, in the Governments need. made vol
untary contributions for its support greatly
in advance of the paltry difference between
the Department and the Stage Company.

The Reporter of the Herald i'm the
Stnte Semate.

Yesterday afternoon the principal time OF the
State Senate was taken up in reference to the
reports made for the HERALD and the Brewer
Legislative reports. A word of personal expia-
nation is made upon our part In Justification oil
ourself and the reports that have appeared in the
HERALD. /, is an old-time dodge Of men OF
mediocre talent-men who are fuller OF impas-
soned defamation than plain and pointed ar
gument-to attack reporters and lay all the re
sponsiblities for inaccuracies ofreports upon the
reporter himself. never supposing. from the mar
row-mindedness of their own construction. that
the taking of synopsis reports of proceedings Is
attended with great Inconvenience, as well as
difficulty, and the impossibility of making an
accurate report. and especially so to an ine1Pe-
rienccd reporter. We make no profession
of being a. competent and correct a
reporter as q "short hand but we do claim
that we have never willfully misrepresented
any gentleman in all our reporting, and neither
have We ever. on any occasion. 50 far forgot the
duties of our station to descend to personal
attack on any man, even be he one OF the las
sembled wisdom of the State We confess
our inability to report a speaker rerbatin, and
arrange their figures aud tropes in as system
atical and engaging g manner as they are gen
orally presented. and il that iattering JUNCTION
has found its way 10 the soul OF the gentleman
from Rush." we abjure him TO dispel il. Mis-
cradle ineficisncies and inaccuracies may oc-
cur. but we discIsim any willful misrepresenta-
tons of any member on our part, and would
take il as q personal favor If gentlemen would
them out, aud We will with pleasure
make the proper correction. On tue whole,
We have known some reporters with as much
ability to discharge the duties of their profession,
a. q certain class of men. who by some unhappy
accident. became entrusted. in part. with the
legislation Of the State. We may be excluded
from the door OF the Senate a. a reporter. as IL
appeared to Us yesterday one Senator was lit
tie anxious 70 see done. but in that event we
shsll exercise our Democratic prerogative. and
take up our place in the lobby. along with other
plebeians The business of attacking reporters
may be. in lieu of Others. good subject on
which TO drill the oraiorical powers of aspiring
declaimers; but doubt II any other advantage
will ever be derived from such essays. We
have the columns of the Herald. the gentle
man from Rush" the floor OF the Senate. and II
We are attacked in an unjust manner again.
We shall most assureily take advantage OF our
position.
