The local officers and agents of the De-
partment will be instructed to cause all
transient printed matter, foreign or do
nestle, to be fully prepaid. Letters not
prepaid by stamps, or those having post
age stamps such as used prior to 1861,
are sent to the dead letter office; and cor
respondence once delivered from a post
office, must be stamped before remailing.
All documents from the several depart
ments of Government, after June 30th,
1873, will require special stamps, pre-
pared and furnished by the General
Postoffice at Washington, and all such
documents must be prepaid. The post
age stamps used "prior to 1861" having
almost entirely disappeared from use no
difficulty will result from this section of
the law. Newspapers, not regularly sent
from publishers and dealers, also circu-
lars dropped into the office, must be pre-
paid at the rate of one cent for two
ounces, and an additional rate for surplus
weight periodicals, such as books, mag
%azines, ETC., weighing over two ounces,
are charged two cents. The law is not
materially changed except as affecting
newspaper exchanges, which were for
merly allowed to go free, but must, by
the new order Of things, be prepaid. Our
wise men, at Washington, might well
have allowed the old rule to obtain in
this latter particular.

benefit of all really valuable mining

in mining circles.

TERRIBLE DISASTER IN ILLINoIs.-A
telegraph dispatch, dated May 4th, gives
an account of a terrible disaster, result
ing in a great loss of life, at Dixon, ILL
nois. The baptism rite was being ad-
ministered to a number of converts to a
Baptist church, at a point on Rock river,
just below a bridge. About 200 persons,
with a large percentage of women and
children, were assembled on the bridge,
which suddenly gave way, precipitating
its living freight into the river below.
Many were wounded and crushed by the
falling timbers, and numbers drowned.
The general estimate of the number lost
is, at latest accounts, in the neighbor-
hood of 80 or 100.

According to notice in another column
the County Commissioners will assume
charge of the City government onthe LIST
day of June next. On that day, all the
books and papers of the City Trustees
will be transferred to the Commissioners,
and the County officials, such as Sheriff,
Assessor, County Clerk and District At
torney, be intrusted with the duties al
lotted them in the Act. The outgoing
City Trustees, with the Marshal and APP
pointees, have faithfully performed the
duties of their position during the short
period they have held Office, and the
community are satisfied they have en-
deavored to dispose of the charges devol-
wing upon them economically and faith
fully. The new state of affairs will bring
additional cares and responsibilities upon
the incoming officials, with but slight ad-
ditional remuneration. Time, of course,
will prove the efficacy of the change from
the old order of things, and will demon
strate whether anything is gained by it.
