messenger" service, distinguished
from the general or through routes,
by the omission of any fixed sched-
ule of arrivals and departures. The
Zephyr, the authorized carrier on this
route, may have tho mail to suit her
convenience. She has run since the
service begun on her old schedule,
which was adopted without reference
to postal convenience or expedition.
A letter written here Saturday morn
ing reaches Port Townsend Monday
evening, and the return mail is like
wise deprived of the close connection
which the old service invariably af-
forded. 1t is, in no sense, q "res-
toration" of the service formerly ac-

Tenino and Tacoma. The people
must try again, if they would have

that purpose.

and which, but for bis assassination,
he would have in a generous spirit

Is That So ?--If the T'ibune's esti-
mate regarding the cost of working
the coal mines of this Territory is
correct, it will remove very gener-
al impression that such property is
Utterly q bonanza. That journal
says: Including Chehalis and
Bellingham bay, it is safe to estimate
the hard cash spent in opening coal
mines in Washington Territory and
IN Vancouver Island, securing means
of transportation, ETC., at two mil
lion two hundred thousand dollars
in the past ten years-a SUM that all
the profits of those years and all the
probable profits of the next ten years
will barely equal. Only three of the
dozen or more mines partially or
entirely developed in that time are
now being worked. and to do any
thing with new mines will require
an outlay of capital but little less in
the future than has been required
in the past. The experience in the
case of most coal mines on the Paci-
fic coast has been that they are
very poor property.

In SusPENsE.-A London dispatch
of the 18th inst. afirms that the
Powers are apparently as far as ever
from an understanding regarding
the settlement of the terms of peace.
England firmly insists that the peace
treaty be received in regard to all
points, while Russia as firmly as
serts that nothing but certain main
provisions shall be passed upon by
the Congress of the Grant Powers.
Austria will cast her full strength
with England in any event. The
situation is that of a powder-mine
which a spark may turn into q gen.
eral upheaval.
