that there Is no existing appropriation for the
payment or those, IL any, who may be entitled
to the additional compensatiou.n

THE New POSTAL REGULATIONS ON
NEwsPAPERs.-P -Postmaster-G General Cres-
well has directed that the new regula-
tions on newspapers sent by mail be stric-
ly enforced. No name or memorandum
can be made on newspaper inside of
the wrapper on which the address is writ
ten. 1t is barely permissible to mark an
article with pen or pencil. More than
this subjects the paper to letter postage,
and the violator of the law to fine. No
printed card, handbill or advertisement,
no written notice, letter or slip of any
kind whatever must be folded in the pa
per. To do any of these things is to vio-
late the law. Printed slips pasted on
the outsid, OF folded in papers and period
icals, soliciting notices, are also viola
tons of the law. Senders Of transient pa
pers can send bundles of printed matter
by weight on transient postage charges,
but must not send any written matter in
such bundles.

Resolved, That it shall be the duty of

tees of this State to call Primary Elections

ty Committees shall make the apportion-
ment of said delegates to each voting

lican votes polled in the district at the
last State election.
2. One delegate for fraction of any
number of such votes above l is and under

to be elected in the whole county not to
exceed the apportionment herein made.

be:
|. That the person offering to vote is

we would call the attention of all parties.
The request is simple, and compliance

in the mails and the establishment of
many new Post Offices throughout the
country, this Department finds it neces-
sary, in order to facilitate the distribution
and to secure a speedy transmission of
the mails, particularly over the trunk
lines Of railroads, to request of the pub
lie, that in all cases the name of the

State, be superscribed upon letters, circu-
lars newspapers, and ALL other matter to

BECOMING FAMOUS Assemblyman
Luttrell, of Siskiyou, who made the ac-
quaintaince of many of our citizens as
the travelling agent for the Sacramento
Reporter, has attained considerable noto-
riety throughout the State as an industri-
Gus talker and legislator. The Sacra-
mento Union seems to have selected Mr..
Luttrell as its particular mouthpiece in
the Legislature and putfs him according
ly. Other journals, the San Francisco
Chronicle and Yreka Jou1nat in partic-
lar, incline strongly the other way and
seldom miss an opportunity to pay "Jay
Kay" their especial compliments in n
way not at all hattering. But now comes
the Ireka Union, the organ of the Sski-
you Democracy, and cruelty attacks him
in the rear as follows "The Sacramen-
to Record has raised the ire of our longi-
tudinal Assemblymau by its harsh criti-
cism of his speech upon the reduction of
railroad freights and fares, the paternity
of which speech the Record was cruel
enough to ascribe to literary gentleman
of Sacramento, who, in his more conviv-
ial moments has been heard TO make pa
thetlc illusions TO a "big black dog"
The idea that this gentleman ever wrote
our Assemblyman's speech on this or
any other subject, is indeed "preposter-
GUS" as the former would say. lie is
the author of the Jumping Frog of CAL
ayeras," which Mark Twain feloniously
appropriated several years ago, and also
of several other humorous productions.
But he did not write j. ks speech, for
what little coin we can raise. Luttrell is
very often hasty in arriving at conclu-
sions, but his ideas are always his own.
So on the 10Th ult., Mr.. Luttrell arose to
question of privilege and gave the Rec
ord piece of his mind. We fear that
our mountain howitzer carries too much
powder for most of those fellows down
there" 1t is our opinion that Luttrell
will be either abused into office or ridi-
culed out % it altogether. There are
those who ascendcd the ladder of political
pfeierment in this State with a much
poorer start than he has now. Luttrell

The TRINITY RoUTE.-We learn that
the proprietor of the Trinity Valley road,
says the Yreka Journal, of the 18th,
has commenced working on it between
ocott and Trinity mountains, towards
making 1t in good order for Summer
travel. Work will also be shortly com
menced on Trinity mountain, where the
snow will soon disappear, and if the
weather remains pleasant for counle of
weeks an effort will be made to open the
Scott mountain portion Of the road os
the snow is loose and will disappear earli-
er than usual, since there has been no
travel over it this Winter to pack the
snow as hard as ice on tho road. 1t is
confidently anticipated that the road will
be open for travel by the 18th of April.
