A GREAT INCONVENIENCE.

One of Erring Brother Keys new
postal regulations prohibits the mail
agents on postal cars from delivering
mail matter at points on the railroad
where there are no postoffices. Now
Nevada is a country of magnificent dis
tances and there are stretches of country
along the Central Pacific Railroad where
postoffices are thirty or forty miles
apart Before Key got the idea in his
head that mail routes were not estab-
ltshedrfor the convenience of the public,
but to give him OPPORTUNITY to dis
play his authority and ignorance, let
tiers and papers addressed to persons at
stations and side tracks, where there is
no postotiice We're thrown off by the
mail agents, who are generally gentle
manly and accommodating. Now they
are prohibited from doing SO, under
penalty of mourning the displeasure of
the Postoffce Department, and papers
addressed to subscribers at Rose Greek
or Raspberry, if put in the postoffice
here or in the postal car attached to the
train, are taken through to Mill City,
eighteen miles beyond Rose. Greek.
From Golconda to Battle Mountain it is
thirty-eight miles and there is no post
office between those places. Under
Keys instructions papers addressed to
subscribers at Iron Point, ten miles
east of Golconda, and to Stone House,
wenty-two miles east of Golconda, are
taken to Battle Mountain, sixteen miles
east of Stone, House. A. subscriber
writes us from Moline, Elko Gouaty,
station on the Railroad, where there is
no postoffice, that since Keys new
order went into effect, he has to 90 to
Elko, thirteen miles east. for his mail,
which before was thrown off az the sido
track by the clerks on the postal cars
This is a great Inconvenience to persons
who are obliged to reside at remote
places on the railroad, but it is the
order of the man who became Repub-
lican for office, and is now at the head
of the Postoffice Department, will
our Republican contemporaries, as they
alone have influence with the repent
ant rebel, denounce this outrage on the
public and request him to modify this
unjust order?

for some days, that Governor'Tilden in

National Democracy, defending the

he is not candidate for Presidential

for the nomination to be Randall. This
report, whether it be true or not, is
credited by many Democrats in Wash

The Bodie Standard deserves niche
III the Temple Of Fame for.its bold ut
terance on politics. 1t is radical Re
publican journal, yet it has the indie
pendence to admit that the slavery
question, which divided the Republican
apd Democratic parties, has beer. set
tied by the war, aud that to-day "there
is absolutely nothing dividing them,
except the spoils of office" Il is sell
dom that partisan journal makes such
candid admission, bnt the fact is APP
parent nevertheless. On almost. every
issue made in Congress parties are di-
vided, except when the issue has some
bearing on the spoils Of Office. Repub-
leans as well as Democrats are opposed
to bayonets at the polls; but the party
in power are in,fagor of the measure be-
cause the leaders believe it would
prolong their lease Of Office, and give
them opportunity to share the spoils of
Office. The same is true of the law au-
thorizing Federal marshals to make ar
rests at the polls. The party in power
expects to be benefited by the Act,
and for that reason favors it, as the
narshals are its political friends, and
are appointed by the Administrator
II the Democrats had control of the
Government, it is not improbable that
the positions Of the parties OH the bay
onet and marshals laws would be re-
versed. On the financial and Chinese
questions both parties are divided,
though large majority of the Demo
ecrats, and only small minority of tine
Republicans in Congress, are in favor
of the double standard and the suppress
sion Of Chinese immigration. On issues
involving the spoils of office, however,
the dividing line between the parties is
we'll defined, and the "dear people :"
are led to believe that Republicanism
and Democracy, which are almost
meaningless party names, embody all
that is good and bad in government
affairs, when, in reality, the "spoi,s of
. office " is the great principle which di-
vides them.

A Remarkable Musical Instrument.
THE ORGAN FOR MRS. STEWARDS CATH.
EDRAL AT GARDEN CITY. LONG
ISDAND. s-.ta...t

The new organ building by Mr.. Hilborn
L. Roosevelt for the Cathedral at Gardel
City, L. l.. will rank among the larges
and several respects will be one OF the mos
remarkable in the world. 1t will BE- place.
in four different parts Of the Cathedral
The main body Of the instrument vii
stand in the chancel. and the orennist viii
dit there. At the west end Of the building
Tin tower directly behind large stained
glass window, is room in which part
Of the organ will be placed and connected
with the chancel by electricity, like the
organ built by Mr.. Roosevelt in Grace
Church, New York. The window will be
opened and closed by electricity controlled
by the organist from the chancel, thereby
making fine crescendo and diminuendo
effects with the organ in the tower. Over
the ceiling, about the centre of the build.
ing, gill be placed another part of the in
| stFument called the echo organ, which is
to be played from the chancel by electrici-
ty. Underneath the chancel, in the chapel
situated there, is a part of the organ which
is arranged so that it can be played in the
chapel as well as from the chancel. Lastly
the large chimes which hang in the tower
will be connected with the chancel by cleo
tricity, 50 that the organist can play them
from the keys Of the organ. The bellows
will be operated by hydraulic engines, and
the organlst can, by simply turning on the
water, have the whole instrument, includ-
ing the chimes, at his command. Though
this will be mammoth instrument, and
Notwithstanding the great distance be-
tween many of its parts, the pressure nee
essary to play on the keys will be nogreat-
er than is used in playing upon piano.
This is due to the use Of electricity. pneu-
MATES and hydraulics, which combined.
render it possible and practicable to con-
struct such an instrument.
There will be four vox humans (similar
in construction to the celebrated one in
Freiburg); one of these will be in the
chancel, one in the tower, another over
the ceiling, and a fourth one in the chapel
beneath the chancel. All of these will be
under the control Of the organist in the
chancel, and will be capable of crescendo
and diminuend0 effects. Certainly some
beautiful and extraordinary combinations
