The Chean Postage BiII.

The lower house of Congress has passed the
Cheap Postage bill reported not long ago from
letter postage to two cents for each half
ounce or fraction thereof, declares magazine
and newspaper manuscripts to belong to the
third class of mailable matter, fixes the post
age on daily newspapers at fifteen cents per
quarter, and requires prepayment of postage
on all printed matter, or mailable matter, OF
the second class, except on weekly newspapers
within the counties where they are printed or
published, which will pass through the mails
free, as heretofore. AS it originally came
from the committee, the bill restricted the
newspaper franking privilege to "weekly
newspapers with the respective counties
printed and published" The words &c actually
and wholly which would seem to have been
inserted for the purpose of discriminating
partly in the cities by " auxiliary" establish
ments, and partly at the place of publication,
were very properly stricken out. Country
publishers who print their newspapers ac-
tually and wholly" in their own Offices have q
right to their own opinion of country
insides," or "country outsides," of course,
but Congress has no right to force their opin-
choose to subscribe and pay for papers printed
on the auxiliary plan, they have perfect
right to do SO, and publishers have a
perfect right to supply the demand for papers
of this description. 1t is not for Congress to
inquire of publishers where they have their
printing done. They may have it done in
their garrets or in their cellars, or they may
pay. others for doing it a thousand miles away,
hpthey please. Congress has nothing to do
with the business. Chicago Times.
Our Chicago contemporary takes a
correct and sensible view of this matter.
He might have gone a step further, how
ever, and added that it was bit of i'm
pertinence, to say the least, on the part
of certain members of Congress to at
tempt to defile our national statute books
with such a manifestly unjust piece OF
class legislation-a piece of Legislation
more in keeping with the barbarism OF
the dark ages than with the liberal and
enlightened sentiment of the present
century. It is matter with which Con-
gress nor any other Legislative body has
no sort of concern, and in meddling with
which they are stepping wholly beyond
the pale of their legal prerogative. II
Congress possesses the legal right to
dictate to the publisher the mode, man
ner and place for the execution of the
mechanical work of his paper, it pos
sesses an equal right to enact that ht
shall use straw paper instead of rag
paper that he shall use large type in
stead of small type that he shall use {
bad quality of ink instead of gooC
quality; that he shall use hand press
instead of steam press and altogether
that he shall furnish his patrons with al
inferior paper, instead of a good, reada
BILE sheet. For, in reality, the out
rageous discrimination attempted woulC
! have amounted to this, and nothing less

Eighty-fve Miles of Solid Ice on Laka
Michigan.

The 1fiJeOaatkee Wisconsin of the 11th
has the following The propeller City
of Fremont left for Grand Haven for the
third time last night, but was compelled
to return after having penetrated the ice
belt distance of only fourteen miles.
During the high westerly winds of last
week the ice was never at any time out
of sight of land. AT this point since
then it has constantly been added to, so
that now it once more fills the bay. In
view of all the facts that can be ascer-
tanned we have no hesitation in saying
that Lake Michigan, at this point, where
its width is 85 miles, is now entirely
bridged over with ice, varying in thick
ness from one to twelve feet. Never
before within the memory of the oldest
living inhabitant has it been known to
occur. It will require high southerly
wind of at least weeks duration to
break up and drive the formidable belt
toward the lower end of the lake, and
enable the steamers of the Engleman
line to cross. In the meantime the
Manistee and Messenger remain in the
condition reported last week, off White
hal, and receiving occasional supplies of
food from shore.

HOW 1T HAPPENED.
By JOHN HAY.

I pray thee pardon me, Elsie,
And smile that frown away
That dims the light of your lovely face
As q thunder cloud the day.
really could not help it
Before thought twas done
And those great gray eyes flashed bright and cold,
Like an icicle in the sun.
was thinking of the summers,
When we were boys and girls,
And wandering in the blossoming woods,
And the gay winds romped with your curls,
And you seemed to me the same little girl
kissed in the alder-path.
kissed the little girls lips, and alas
have reused a womans wrath.
There is not SO much to pardon
For why were your lips SO red
The blonde hair fell in shower of gold
From the proud, provoking head,
And the beauty that flashed from the splendid eyes
And played round the tender mouth,
Rushed over my soul like warm, sweet wind
That blows from the fragrant south.
And where, after all, is the harm done?
] believe we were made to be gay,
And all of youth not given to love
Is vainly squandered away,
And strewn through Hfe's low labors,
Like gold in the desert sands,
Are loves swift kisses and sighs and vows,
And the clasp of clinging hands.
And when you are old and lonely,
In memory'a magic shrine
You will see ON your thin and wasting hands,
Like gems, these kisses of mine.
And when you muse at evening
At the sound of some vanished name,
The ghost of my kisses shall touch your lips,
And hndle your heart to flame.
