The Changes In Our Postage.

In 1902 the first Postage act was passed
in this country. Every separate sheet Of
paper, large or small, without reference
to weight, wns considered letter, and
two or three small pieces in one envelope
paid double or treble postage. The low.
est rate was six cents to places within
thirty miles, eight cents to places within
sixty miles, ten to places within one hun.
dred miles, and so on up to places within
four hundred and fifty miles, the postage
then being twenty-five cents. In 1850 a
new law was passed changing the rates.
The lowest rate was eight cents, and the
lowest distance was forty miles. In 1916
the minimum rates we're again reduced
to six cents and the distance to thirty
miles, only five rates being established.
Eighteen and one.hnlf cents carried four
hundred miles, and for longer distance
twenty-five cents were charged. These
rates continued until 1915 when the first
material reduction took place Five cents
became the postage Of letters carried q
distance Of leS5 than three hundred miles
and ten cents for a greater distance. At
the same time the drop.letter system was
introduced, the postage on such being
fixed at two cents. 1915 the half ounce
weight was made the standard instead Of
the number Of sheets. In 1851 the single
rate was made three cents for all distances
under three thousand miles, and six cents
for greater distances, II prepaid, this be.
ing the first inhucement held out to pre-.
pay postage. Unpaid letters we're charg.
ed five and ten cents, according to. dis.
lance. In 1855 prepayment was required,
the rate "a TO distance remaining the
same. 1868 the present rate ofthree cents,
prepaid for all distances, was established.

American Sheet Iron in England.

There is now being shown in BirmiHg-
ham district an extraordinary specimen
Of iron.making in the United states, 1t
is a portion Of sheet Of very thin IRON
SO thin that, though It's surface dimen-
sions are 4 inches by 81 inches, yet its
weight is only 8! grains apOthecaries'
weight. The breath Of the nostrils will
drive it away almost as il it were the
cinder Of burnt paper, The thinness is
itself very surprising, but the extraOr-
binary part OF the matter Is that the iron
has been made from what the Ameri-
cans term "muck bar"-obtained from
banks pudding furnace at Pitts
burgh without being rewOrked. Thus
an extreme thinness Of iron, which it is
almost impossible to secure from the
very best materials worked and re-
worked many times over in the usual
way, has been got from iron in the state
Of crudeness in which II was found upon
leaving mechanical pudding furnace.
1t Is assumed that the iron has been made
from the ordinary district pigs, and the
specimen Is deemed to demonstrate the
great value Of machine pudding rs prac.
ticed by the producers Of the iron. And
the specimen has an important CONNER
cal Us we'll a. scientific significance.
There il To the English irOn.makers the
disagreeable inference that il crude iron
can be worked to such foil a. il de

ness, but still Of thinness that
brings them to the narrowest gauge
embraced in the sheets generally
made in that country, and which realize
very high prices, should be produced by
the United Stptes iron masters at figures
much below those at which alone latens
and button iron, for instance, can be
made in England that the Americans
must be in a position to successfully
compete with the British iron master for
those kinds In his home market. Men in
the trade who have seen the specimen
are expressing the belief that the Amer.
lean should be able to compete with the
English maker in the Antipodean, Colo.

Of labor, agricultural and manufacturing,
and the cost Of subsistence for a series Of
years, and also an array Of special sta.

the conclusions drawn by Mr.. Young
from a careful study Of the elaborate sta.
tistics is interesting:
"In some Of the larger cities Of our
Eastern coast, where the labor supply Is

receiving constant additions from the
ranks Of emigrants who lack the means
OF advancing farther intc the country,
there is at times considerable complaint
Of the want OF adequate employment,
and in such places there is occasionally
some deprivation and suffering among
the poor. In the city Of New York, oW.
ing to its great extent and the lack Of
adequate communication between its
commercial center and It's suburbs, large
numbers OF working people, in order to
be conveniently near to their places Of
employment are compelled TO live in
crowded tenement houses, under condi-
tons which are favorable TO neither
health, comfort nor decency.
"In some Of the manufacturing towns
and villages OF New England, particularly
the seats OF the textile industries, the
dwellings Of the poor are represented to
be in sanitary condition that is lar from
satisfactory. Such conditions are, how
ever, quite exceptional, and the masses
OF working people throughout the coun'
try occupy comfortable homes, enjoy an
abundance Of good food and comfortable
clothing, with opportunities for good
common school education for their child
rem, and possess a degree Of personal in
dependence not enjoyed on large scale
by any other laboring population on the
face Of the globe.
Y"This statement is true not only in re-
gard to the workmen Of the rich agri.
cultural regions Of our vast interior and
the prosperous manufacturing towns
with which those regions are dotted

bears the unpoetic name "door.knob.'

The Trial OfE.B. Wards VIII.

l have been attending the great Ward
will trial here for the past ten days as a
witness. The court room is constantly
crowded by ladies. The interest is as
great, comparatively speaking, as the in
terest In the Beecher trial for Brooklyn.
Theo. Romeyne opened the case in a
speech occupying whole day. He pro-
posed to show that the family from
which Ward descended inherited insanity,
that every branch of his immediate ances
tors had insane members, and that Capt
Ward was predisposed to insanity. That
in early life he was an atheist, and took
pains to denou nee all religion; that he
finally became spiritualist, and pur-
sued it so intempe rately that 1t became q
delusion to him that he had two shocks
OF appoplexy previous 10 the one that
KILLED him instantly, January I'd, 1875.
nat after the second shock Wards brain
was SO impaired that at times he was on
some subjects out of his mind that the
VIII produced In Court was not in fact
4he will of Ward, but was the will of

Close upon the accounts of Stsnley's
travels and discoveries in the hitherto
unknown wIlds Of Africa comes the
return of the British steamer Pandora
from the Arctic regions, and fu II ac-
count is forwarded by the cable of her
adventurous voyage in search of the
remains of Sir John Franklin and for a
possible Northwest Passage. The Pan
dora was extremely successful in avoid
ing the frozen dangers of the polar seas
and pushing safely into waters never be-
fore navigated unless by the Erebus and
Terror, of Franklin's expedition, but in
the attempt to push through Bellot's
Strait the steamer encountered solid
ice, and Capt. Young, her commander,
perceiving no advantage to be gained by
going into winter quarters, conclud ed to
put back tor England, where the ship
has arrived.

billions. Pennsylvania will have little
heart to attempt 10 carry out her designs
without the support of her fellow labor
ers in this State, and comparatively sin
gle-handed. The rebuke here admins
tered will teli with powerful effect-upOn
the State elections that are to follow, and
give character and complexion to the
general election of next year. The re
'fiecton viii NOT be pleasant one, that
the defeat of Gov. Allen has irreparably;
damaged the prospects of number Of
Presidential aspirants, who committed
themselves to the initiation folly. The
financial ideas embraced in their creed
will not, probably. soon be accepted by
the people of the country. They will not
settle down upon the plan proposed by
our disappointed and defeated friends
that there shall be no demonstration hav
ing for its object a return TO specie ba-
sis. The situation imposed by the ne
cessities of the case, has been accepted
uneomplainingly for years, but the peo-
pie have been thinking that better. day
was coming, when old times should be
inaugurated, when paper dollar should
be backed and f1anked by gold or silver
one; when conVertibility should give
the paper dollar preference, because of
its convenience. Neither Allen nor Pen
dleton, Hendricks or Thurman stand
ghost of chance for nomination in '76.
Possibly something may be done this
winter to heal the division of the ranks,
and mitigate the aspenties OF wounds in
fiicted. Unless This be done the Democ-
racy Will be in sorry plight to take til e
field next year. And it may occur to the
Democracy of Ohio, when the excitem ent
is over and reason again prevails, that
their defeat is cIief1y due TO listening to
bad advisers TO revive a financial heresY
that slaughtered Pendleton in 1868. They
may come to understand how, had they
stuck to the. theory of hard money, and
not patched their platform with the
shreds of ancient Whiggery, they might
have carried the State for Allen in spite
of the discreditable and scandalous con
duct of the last Democratic Legisla ture,
and continued their hold upon power,
and perhaps have had the pleasure of
taking the relns of the general Govern
ment.

Fourteen years ago, when the very ex-
istence of the Republic was imperiled in
the eyes of the world by the certainty
that the disunion scheme would be at
tempted, it was no easy thing for the
United States Government TO borrow
money. The frs loan of $18,0OO,OO0 net
ted but little over $16.OOO,OOO, the bal
ance being the commissions exacted for
the negotiation, amounting to II per cent
of the whole. Fourteen years later,
when the stability of the Republic is
demonstrated beyond question, loan of
$780, 100000, the aggr egate amount of
the "new Fives," is effected at cost of
$2,255, 600, or two-ffths OF per cent.
