The Constltutonality OF the new Liquor
Tax Law has been raised in Detroit by an in
Junction restraining the County officers from
collecting the tax assessed against the Liquor
sellers. An early decision by the Supreme
for the present, at least. II this law is held to
he constitutional, it is certain that the dealars
will have to pay the tax or quit the business.
They will also have to give bonds for good
behavior. that they will not sell liquors to
minors nor 70 common drunkards," which
will be another good thing in the liquor bust
ness. 1t will compel some men to keep COM
paratively sober.

an article OF twenty-three and half colum ms,
in which it says that everything contained in
the limos is I" boiled down" and condensed to
the smallest possible space. The article was
an original one prepared in the Editorial rooms
of that paper. Taking that as a specimen of
the;f "boiling down" one would naturally con-
cIude Chat their condensation was an eongation
instead OF a shortening Of relation.

ACCIDENT TO THE MAIL.-The mail
coach running between Virginia and
Dayton had the mifortune to break
an axletree at Gold Hill on Friday
morning, and in consequence the
mail for Silver City and Dayton was
somewhat delayed for that day. No
team could be procured at Gold Hill
to carry the mail, and as Uncle
Samuel is somewhat particular as to
the custody Of the mailbags, our
friend Dallas had to make the best of
Il bad mishap. and patiently wait for
repairs to the wagon. 1t may not be
generally known, but the contract for
this mail route only calls FOR six trips
per week, and the contractor is
giving the towns of Dayton and Sill
yer City daily mail pure,y as an
accommodation. This "bars any
comments derogatorv to a remissness
in duty in not furnishing Silver City
with the mail GA time ON Friday.
| We are mt loss 10 know why Silver
! City and Dayton should not be
granted daily mail service by the
Government. MS the business OF the
two towns imperatively demand that
amount OF favors from the Govern
ment. In this connection, we MAY
!. be allowed tn suggest that re-
arrangement of the running time of
mail coaches so that the daily de-
parturc of mail and express matter
from tins city to Virginia should be
de,aved until six O'Clock in the even
ing, would he a great convenience to
the merchants. mill men and citizens
of this vicinity. The departure, as
now fixed at 3 80 p. N. causes serious
Inconvenience in sending statements
and business letters from the various
mining companies and merchants,
doing business in this city, to their
correspondents, and if there is pos
sibility of lettering the facilities for
communication, it should be accom-
plishcd at once.

of ore at the Brunsw ick awaiting the
complete Of repairs, and we hope
that this latest and important pur-
chase OF the ..kings of the Com
