THE NEW PusIAGE LAW.
All Publications to be Delivered Free IN the
County Where Published.

On and after the lst day Of this month
all publications circulate free IN the mails
within the county where published This
is different from the old law. Under the
old law only Weeklies were delivered free
Of postage. Under the present law, Dai-
lies, Semi-W eeklies, Tri-W eeklies Week
lies, in fact all publications, from a Daily
to Quarterly, are carried and delivered
free of postage within the county where
published. And if subscriber lives in
the county where the periodical is publish
ed he gets it free Of postage though the
post office where he receives his mail may
be in an adjoining county. Those OF our
subscribers who have paid postage on The
WEEKLY or THE DAILY ARGUS for the
present quarter are entitled to have the
amount refunded to them.
THIRD-CLASS MAIL MATTER.
Under the new law there is now a uni.
formity in all matter other than letters and
newspapers, as third class, limited to four
pounds, at one cent for each two ounces OF
fraction thereof This permits the send
ing Of any sort of merchandise Except
liquids and poisons) through the mails at
the rate of one cent for each two ounces,
or eight cents per pound, provided the
packages are even four pounds in
weight Heretofore a package Of such
matter was limited to twelve ounces. This
is very important regulation. 1t will be
likely to revoutionize the transportation OF
small packages and vastly increase the
number going through the mails because
of its cheapness. 1t should be noted, how
ever, that such packages are at the sender S
risk, as they cannot be registered unless
letter postage ttwenty-six cents per pound J
is paid. And it should also be noted that
nothing can be sent as third class mail mat.
ter unless the full postage is paid Other
matter, as formerly, must be forwarded if
one rate has been paid and the balance
due will be collected when delivered, as
heretofore But not sowith this new third
class matter-the postage must be paid in
full or it cannot be forwarded.
The salaries of all Postmasters whose
salaries are less than 81 900 are to be regu-
lated az follows:
They are to haye all the box rents, with
commissions on other postal revenues at
their offices at the rate Of sixty per centum
On the first one hundred dollars or
less per quarter; fifty per centum on
the next three hundred or less per quar-
ter forty per centum on the excess above
four hundred dollars per quarter; the
same to be ascertained and allowed by the
Auditor in the settlement of the quarterly
accounts IF surh poStmastera
On the first Of January next nothing
Except in the county of publication will
90 into the mails unless the postage shall
shall first be paid. Publishers must pay
d cent. pound on everything they pub
lish-except to subscribers who live in the
county,

{. H. MCtOEMiCK, Chairman
We find the above in the Chicago Tij-
Lu,e. We shall not attend. We sent our
opinion to Mr.. Mccormick in The ARGUS
of the 9Th He can present that as our
view Of the case.
The Oquawka Spectator thinks that
there is no need Of straight Democrat,
Convention. 1t says:
Should the defunct Democratic State
Committee call a convention to put anoth
er ticket in the field we do not believe that
any considerable portion Of the old Demo
cratic party would give it countenance.
And yet We see few heretofore influential
journals who, only year ago, were strong
ly enlisted in the great Reform movement,
now ciamorous for a straight Democratic
Convention. In this, we consider their
course highly reprchensible, now that the
State Reform Convention has fairly and
squarely put a Reform ticket in the field. ~
The Alcdo Banner says:
I'VE are not in favor of having Il Dem
ocralic Convention. Democrats in Con
gress have been about as deep in the mud
as the Republicans in the mirc, and could
not agree any better than the lndepend-
ents.
"Of course, all rampant Republicans
want straight Convention, since they can
then use the old copperhead argument :
but we think that the Anti Monopolists of
Mercer couty, Democrat, Liberal, or what
not, expect to stand by the Independent
ticket so far as they can approve of it, and
care little for party name
