Newspaper Postage.

The misunderstanding relative to the
action of the last session OF Congress
as regards newspaper postage Is general.
The old law read as follows:
Sec. 159. That on newspapers and
other periodicals sent from known
Office Of publication to regular sub
scribers, the postage shall be paid be-
fore delivery, for not less than one
quarter, nor more than one year which
payment may be made either at the
office of mailing or delivery, commenc-
ing at any time.
The amendment to the old law finally
settled upon by Congress was attached
to an appropriation bill approved March
8, 1873, and was as follows:
Provided, That all laws and parts OF
laws permitting the transmission by
mail Of any free matter whatever be
and the same hereby are repealed from
and after June 80, 1873.
By this amendment newspapers were
cut off from the privilege Of sending
papers free in the county, and all eI.
changes between newspaper offices must
1t is still left optional with news,
papers or their subscribers to prepay
the postage. One or the other must
prepay it, either quarterly or yearly in
advance, at the old rates-five cents pei
quarter for weekly papers. 1t is Lot
obligatory upon publishers OF papers
to prepay the postage under the law
which goes into effect June 3Oth any
more than it is now.

The Peach Crop.

Some time ago house-keepers were
led to believe that the peach trees in
the different States had been 80 seri-
ously affected by the frost that the
peach crop would not be large enough
to furnish them with anything like a
decent supply this season. Subsequent.
ly well-known tree culturist announced
that most of the States would have no
crop at all. A third story now comes,
to the effect that "the peacn-growers
and traders OF the Delaware and Chesa-
peake Peninsula have held meeting,
and have arrived at the conclusion that
another market than New York must be
found" The immediate cause OF this
determination has, it appears, to be at
tributed to the fact that last year "the
New York market was so glutted with
peaches that growers and traders be-
came convinced that it would be unsafe
to trust it any longer" Philadelphia,
Baltimore, Boston, and other cities, are
in future to be the points of destination
for the peach product of Delaware. 1t
will be observed that nothing further is
said on the subject of "short CROP" SO
that, all things considered, we think
that the house-keepers have no cause
for alarm on this point.

An Odd WOOing.

The Milly Sisters are the mulatto girls
who are grown together, like the Siamese
Twins, and whom nature has endowed
with fair voices and very fine musical
ear. After being exhibited in this coun-
try, they have been starring it in Ger
many, and they are now in Berlin.
They have there found an admirer, o
Russian Baron Merger, q man of con-
siderable wealth, who has, by an in
sane freak, fallen in love with one OF
them.
The Milly Sisters stop at the Hotelde
Rome, the most fashionable caravansery
in Berlin but live in the strictest re-
tirement. They never 60 out in the
daytime, and they receive absolutely no
visitors except their agent, Frederick
Hunt, of Cincinnati. Consequently,
when the oddly enamored Baron Won
Merger sent his card up to the two sis
ters with an urgent request to be per-
mitted to make their acquaintance, he
was politely informed that that was i'm
possible. He next sent q handsome
diamond ring to the one whom he was
enamored of, describing her in an ac-
companying note accurately enough for
the two sisters to know which of them
the present was destined for. But they
sent the ring back, too, and an effort
of the Baron to obtain an introduction
to the object of his passion behind the
scenes at the Victoria Theatre, where
the Milly Sisters are singing, proved
eoually unsuccessful,
The baron ascertained that the sisters
were anxious to appear during the i'm
pending universal Exposition at Vien-
ma; and that they had found it difficult
to obtain an engagement there. He
wrote to the manager of the Leopold
Stadt Theatre in Vienna, and offered to
pay their compensation out of his own
pocket. The manager did not hesitate
to accept so temptinga an offer. He sent
Baron Won Merger at once formal con-
tract for q two-months' engagement.
The baron communicated this to the
agent of the Milly Sisters, and on the
following day he was introduced to
them, and the contract with the Vienna
manager was signed. Since that time
the two sisters have appeared every day
in the baron's sumptuous carriage in
the Thiergarten Park. The crazy fel-
low has repeatedly declared in public
that he will marry the object Of his ad-
miration.

Libel Law in Pennsylvania.

The Philadelphia Telegram says, a
writer or publisher in Pennsylvania who
undertakes to discuss the doings of
public officials is entirely Mt the mercy
of any judge who may happen to be on
the bench, and any twelve men who
may happen to beput into the jury-box,
in case exception is taken to his utter
ances by the person or persons criti-
cized. Unfortunately Judges are some
times uenal, and are oftener prejudiced,
while, especially in cases in which
prominent politicians are interested,
the .jury-bor is frequently packed with
men who go into it with their minds
already made up with regard to the YER
dict to be rendered. The present status
of the law of libel is, therefore, most
unjust ard most injurious to the public
interests. No matter how outrageous
may be the conduct of man in public
station, the newspapers cannot de-
nounce him without risking libel suit;
and that justice does not always rule in
the issue of such suits is fact too we'll
known to need demonstration. In the
matter of libel, journalists do not ask
for any other privileges than are granted
to other citizens, but they do ask that
it shall be allowable to prove, as a JUS
tification, the truths of an alleged libel,
and that it Was published from proper
motives and in the public interests, and
not from private spite.

A California Zephyr.

Joseph johnson, for a long time a
school teacher in Sacramento, Califor-
mia, now lives on large ranch in Sur
prise Valley, in Siskivou county, near
Eaglesville. On the night of Jan. 6
last, he, with his wife, was sitting by a
roaring stove in the lower room to their
story and half house, and listening
with serenity to the storm that was
roaring along the valley on the outside.
Two boys, brothers of Mrs. johnson,
were snugly abed up stairs.
Suddenly, John and his wife heard q
sound Of wilder tempest than had
been blowing all the night. 1t was like
the hoarse roar of the ocean on q lee
shore, and increased with frightful
speed. With presentiment of coming
evil, johnson grasped his wife in his
arms, and ut that very moment the
whirlwind swooped down on the build
ing. 1t lifted it high in the air, car
ried it many feet, turned it completely
upside down, and threw its roof to the
ground with an awful crash. The cell.
ing fell on the roof, the boys being
saved from death only by the bed, now
turned bottom up. Mr.. Johnson and
his wife lit on their heads among the
debris on the roof.
The floor was torn ont and blown
many rods away, one wall was torn out
and blown forty yards one way, and an
other sixty yards in an exactly opposite
direction. A can of coal oil was burst,
and spoiled the winters provisions.
The fire from the stove fell into trunk
and burned the clothing and papers
therein. In fact, the house and its
contents were an utter wreck, and that
all should escape unhurt except Mr..
Johnson, whose left hand was very bad
ly burned in keeping the stove off his
wife, is miraculous.
The frightened people e1tricated
themselves from the ruins, and through
the awful tempest felt their way to q
neighbor's. The next dny the wind
having abaited, the residents turned to
and Temporarily rebuilt the broken
house. Mr.. Johnson took account OF
stock, and found that of household
furniture wherewith to commence the
winter anew, the hurricane had left him
unbroken three teacups and lamp
chimney.

Wouldn't Marry for Life.

Albert Knight, graduate OF the Nor
NAL School of Albany, N. Y, was to
have been married to one of Malta's
Saratoga county, fairest daughters,
and withal woman of some pecuniary
means. as well as of unblemished repu-
tation. The guests were all assembled.
The would-be bride and bridegroom
were decked in their gayest attire for
the occasion, and the Rev. NJ. Webster
of Jonesville, just arrived to put on the
finishing touch to the nuptlal knot,
when Mr.. Knight wished q private in
terview with the minister. The inter
view being granted, he refused to be
married unless Mr.. Webster would leave
off the part of the ceremony where IT
reads. "as long as you doth live.
For, says Mr.. Knight, the laws OF the
State grant divorce for certain reasons,
and do not know as I can live with
her all my life, and I do not want to
take VOWS upon myself that 1 might not
be able to fulfill. Mr.. Webster replied
that he was not there MS lawyer. He
had come only in an ecclesiastical way,
and if he wished to be married he would
marry him according to the rules of the
church. Whereupon Mr.. Knight enter
ed into a logical discussion of the sub
ject, until the divine, becoming dis:
gusted, sought the woman's mother and
informed her that Knight did not wish
to marry her daughter, and left for
home. The tired guests then sat down
to what was to have been the bridal
feast, which had been kept waiting
during the long discussion.
