Senator Sherman in the Senate Tues
day managed to have an amendment
put on the Post Office Appropriation
bill, requiring publishers of newspapers
to prepay postage on their circulation
sent through the mail at the rate of four
cents per pound. The highest rate the
Postnaster-General recommended was
cent and half per pound. The only
explanation for this extraordinary course
is the exceeding great anxiety of Sena-
tors to get even with the newspapers.
Not content to provide the day previ-
Gus a bill to persecute them in the
courts, they now propose to levy an ex-
orbitant tax upon their circulation.
They do not provide either that this
proposed law shall not take effect until
a certain time in the future, but by fail
ing 10 fix any time the law will take
effect from its passage. Thus for six
months of the present year the news
papers will have to pay four cents per
pound ON the bulk of their mail edition,
without any prospect of recovering the
same from their subscribers.

A dullness somewhat resembling that
which reigns during the middle of the
heated period was observable today on
Third street, and prices generally show
slight weakness. Rumors, however,
may be quoted active, and as they were
issued from both sides of the speculation
may be said to have equalized each
other. Among those most prominent
was one to the effect that the committee
appointed by the last meeting of the
stockholders of the Penns ylvania Rail
rold Company to investigate the affairs
of the company, appIaiSe its properties,
franchises, and leases, would make "a
report during thecoming week. Perhaps
nothing of more Importance to the cred
it of the company nameG could occurr
at this time, as actual facts are sorely
needed to restore the confidence which
some time ago was lost in that stock.
The intention on the part of the present
managers to recognize its affairs and
conduct the business on the most econ
omisal plans meets with the unqualified
approval of the shareholders, and if the
committee is able to show a uniform
system of improvements. together with
valuable assets, for the large amour is
expended by the company, the commu-
nifty will feel that its confidence in the
road and its managers has not been mis-.
placed.
There was rather more demand for
money to-day, but the rates remain
about the same as last Quoted, Call
loans rules at A to 8 per cent. Prime
mercantile paper ranges 5 10 6 per cent.
per annum.
The stock market was rather unsettled
aud prices ruled heavy during the great
er part of the day.

Pennsylvania Railroad sold largely at
495s to 403s, slight decline; Reading at
81, 10 change; Lehigh Valley at 81, no

The markets generally have been dull
during the past week, and rrices of most

INDUCED in drinking freely of ice water,
and one Danish girl, 10 years of age,
died in consequence of this imprudence,
aud several others were seriously i'll.
For short time the emigl ants thought
that they had been poisoned, and great
excitement prevailed among them.
THE HOT SPELL.
This year has teen remarka lie in its
weather statistics. The month of May
was the chillest and June was the hot
test month we have had for many a
year. The thermometer reached 90 de-
grres on the 9th inst, and much suffer
ing was experienced by the brute crea-
tion, several horses falling dead on the
street. While other places have been
visited with copious and refreshing
showers, our city has not been favored
by the clerk of the weather with any
immediate relief, and the extreme heat
still continues with us.
THE PUBLIC BUILDINGS.
On July 4th, the corner stone of our
new public buildings at Broad and Mar
ket streets will be laid with Impressive
ceremonies. Hon. Deninmin Harris
Brewater will deliver an Grafton on the
occasion, and the ceremonies will be
principally those of the Masonic Order.
When will our people be informed that
the corner stone of the Centennial will
be laid?
