A HINT TO TIE PosTMAsTERs-- City Postal
Wdgon.-The city postmaster here, by per-
mission of the Post Office Department, has
purchased and put into the letter.carrier
service carriage, constructed for the pur-
pose, drawn by one horse, which it IS be-
lieved will materially increase the efficiency
Of the carriers department. The whole
outfit is in excellent taste, and attracts
much attention. The carriage is con-
structed with separate compartments for
letters which are taken from the Office
for delivery and returned to the Office for
mailing, with separate compartments
for books and documents and on each
side receptacle in which the public may
deposit letters to be mailed or for local de-
livery. 1t is designed more particularly
for collecting and delivering the letters and
documents for the hotels and other estab-
lishments having heavy mails, but has
also, seats for the accommodation Of a few
carriers, who can ride to and from the
more distant districts. Though to some
extent an experiment, it promises to be

REVENUE Reform Coal AND SALT
There was meeting last night of the prom
ment to discuss the probable complexion
OF the Ways and Means Committee. Quite
a number of leading Republican and Dem
ocratic members attended. 1t was con-
coded that if the Senate concurred in the
House resolution to adjourn, no commit
tees would be appointed before December,
but ifthere was session it was determined
to press joint resolution for the repeal Of
the duty on coal and salt. The meeting
seemed entirely confident that no high-tariff
man would he appointed chairman Of Ways
and Means.- Washington telegram.

THE PRESIDENTIAL Question: ashtng-
ton, March 5.-Many of the new Demo-
cratic members Of the House have already
been earnestly talking Of their preferences
for certain gentlemen as presidential candi-
dates. but the more discreet among the old
members deprecate the agitation of the
question at this time as calculated to pro-
duce such conflict Of feelings as will injure
the prospects of the party.

A VERY INTERESTING FEATURE.-After
all, the most important feature Of the new
House was the solid front which the Demo-
cratic side presented with its ninety.four
votes, two of It's members being absent.
and with four States unrepresented. While
in Il full House this side will lack some
thirty votes or more Of q majority, it never
theleSs breaks up the two-thirds rule under
Weld this with such great reluctance that
they attempted, in the very last hours Of
the old session, to so amend the rules as to
give majority of the House the same
power as two-thirds. Mr.. Brooks and
others declared that they would resist that
attempt to outrage the minority ''to the
very borders of revolution" whereupon
the movers of the amendment retreated.-

MIR. Trumbuli hoped the bill repeating the
tariff on coal would not be laid aside. If

defeat this bill by talking against time, the

Mr.. Tickers was happy to inform Mr..

was not confined to the Democrats. A
prominent Republican Senator had q
speech now ready to be delivered against
1t. He Mr., Vickers] was perfectly willing
