New Mail Locks and Keys.

New mail locks have been provided for the mail bags by the Post Office Department at Washington. The keys of the new locks have been forwarded to every Postmaster on the coast, accompanied with letter of in- structions. These instructions direct that the keys must never be exposed to public ob- servation; neither must they be suffered to pass, even for moment, into the hands of any one not sworn officer of the Department. Each mail key bears a distinct number of its own stamped upon it, and every Postmaster is required to make record of the date of re- ceipt and number of the stamp borne by the key. Detective keys or locks are to be re- turned to the contract office Persons guilty of stealing. forging or counterfeiting these locks or keys shall be deemed guilty of a fel- ony, and. on conviction thereof, be imprisoned for period not exceeding ten years. In the course of few weeks, the new locks will arrive and be brought into use, when the old locks will be forwarded to the Department at Washington.-Los Angeles Daily Netes

We have received Executive Documents No. II, consisting of letters of the Secretary of War transmitting to Congress papers rela- tive to and recommending the construction of Government line of telegraph from San Diego, California, ria Fort Yuma and Mari copa Wells, to Prescott and Tucson, Arizona
 A perusa of the papers show that care ful investigation of the country has been made on the routes named, and estimates made of the probable cost of constructing the line by soldiers under citizens accustom- ed to the work.
 The information reported by different off cers gives the entire length of the proposed line as G29 miles, and the estimated cost as S50,3ll, for which sum an appropriation Is asked of Congress.
 Deputy Quartermaster-G General R. c. Tyler estimates that the amount would be saved to Government in one year by the Quartermas- ter's Department alone. Such a state of affairs must show Congress plainly the policy of at once making the appropriation as an economical measure.
 Jas Gamble, Superintendent of Western Union Telegraph Company, estimated that his Company would construct and equip the line at cost of $l50,000 The proposition, if the line is constructed, is to get redwood poles from California for that portion between Fort Yuma and San Diego; to use willow and cottonwood poles, from the banks of the Colorado, for the portion in the Gila valley, ard pine from the mountains near Prescott for that portion north of the Gila.
 For the benefit of all parties concerned in Arizona affairs, it is to be hoped that the line of telegraph proposed may te constructed without delay.

Senate being present, was loudly called
for. and responded in q brief but very forci-
BILE speech. Mr.. Mcconnell is again the
nominee of this Senatorial District for re-
election to the position which he has SO
faithfully and ably filled for the last two
years. So far as we are aware he is the
only one of the Republican members of the
last Senate who is nominated for re-elec-
ton, and we are quite sure that we could
have made no better selection from our
District. When elected, which he will
be on the day of election, he
will on account of his experience
both in the House and Senate, be recog-
nized as one of the leaders of the Republi-
can delegation, and in him we have one
who will be ready and more than willing
to oppose any act which may come up,
either directly or indirectly to legalize the
TOrbett issue of Tennessee Bank money,
and all measures of that class which are
likely to come up in the next Legislature.
We understand from Mr.. Mcconnell
that it is his intention to spend the time,
from this time until the election i'll the
upper counties of the district, and we be-
speak for him full turn out of the voters
wherever he goes, for he is an able speaker,
and we assure all that they will be amply
repaid for going to hear him.

From BlOunt County!

MARYvILLE, Oct. -, 1872.
EDITORS CHRONICLE: Pursuant to a
notice given through your paper, and
written notices posted up in our town,
quite a respectable audience assembled in
the court house, OH Thursday night last, to
listen 20 an address from A. J. Kicks, Esq,
one of the Electors for the State at large
on the Grant and Wilson ticket. Mr..
Kicks was introduced by Hon. NJ. l.. Nc
Connell, and delivered one of the ablest
and most eloquent speeches to which it has
been the good fortune of our people to lis
ten for many a day. He most ably de-
Tended, and thoroughly vindicated the ad-
ministration of President Grant in every
respect, and ventilated the newfangled
coalition of s0rehead Republicans and
Democrats at Baltimore, to try to beat
Grant in the most searching and satisfac-
tory manner. In short, we think his
speech here on that occasion is having a
good effect, and on the fifth of November,
Blount will give a good round majority
for Grant and Wilson, and the entire Re-
publican ticket. AT the close of Capt.
Kicks speech, Capt. S. P. Rowan was
called upon, but excused himself on ac-
count of the lateness of the hour.
Hon. NJ. l.. Mcconnell, our present able
and efficient Representative in the State
