of motion. The steady stroke, the rise and fall
of the body, the rhythmic sweep of the oar,
the perfect unity of the crew. made the entry
of the Yale crew of the epochs of the day. The
six oars moved like one, and dare say each heart
beat like sixty. Dartmouth was last though not

THE BOATS RECEIVE TIE WORD
The gathering was worth review. The half

the physical development of the American college.
The muscles stood out full and firm as iron, and
the beauty of their tanned backs and shoulders was
enough to convince that flesh color ought
to be bronze In each boat the six heads

Mail Service.

New YORK, July IA curious case in
volving the constitutionality of the amended
postage law has been brought in the u S. Cir.
cult Court for this district A gentleman offered
book for mail transmission to Philadelphia
from this city. postage at old rates being affixed.
Being refused he applies for "a mandamus tc
compel the postmaster to receive the package.
The argument of applicant is that the suudry
civil appropriation bill into which the amend
ment increasing the rate on third class mai
matter was inserted was not bill for raising
the revenue; that the amendment did provide
ways aud means for raising revenue; that the
Senate has no constitutional authority to pro-
vide measures for that purpose, that being the
sole prerogative Of the House; and that the
postal amendment having originated with the
Senate and grated on bill which was not one
for revenue purpose is unconstitutional.
