If all that is said about it is true, the
Faure process, whereby the electric fluid
can be stored up for future use, promises
to remove one Of the most serious obsta-
cles to the general utilization Of electricity
as an illuminating agent. One of the
greatest defects inherent to the systems
now in operation is that the light must
be continuously produced. There is no
accumulation of the illuminating medium
upon which it is possible to fall back in
case the process of manufacture were
accidentally suspended. The machine
which generates the electricity must be
constantly at work. If through the slip
ping of a belt or the arrangement of a
lever it is brought to a stand-still. though
for a moment only. the light is simultan-
eously extinguished. This is a grave OBJ
lection to the electric light, but it is one
that can be readily removed if all that is
claimed by the new process can be prac.
tically realized.

coon COUNSEL.

A prominent Eastern physician has
related that he was consulted by two
oonsumptives as to the propriety of
marrying. They were both weakly in
constitution. but intellectually brilliant.
and their tastes were harmonious. They
loved each other ardently, and could not
be happy apart. He counseled them to
marry, and they did so. They lived
together most pleasantly for about a
dozen years. and died at about the same
time. According to the physical school
of thinkers, they should have remained
single, each dragging out the twelve
years in solitary discomfort. Of course
there can be no general rule for cases in
which disease exists; each instance must
be judged on its own merits,

ST. PETERSBURG, June 16.-The Agence

Bulgaria by Russia and Austria, and says
these, like other Powers, have nothing so

TWO-CENT POSTAGE Nor FAR
HEE

1t is possible, says the New York
Mail. that President Gariield's first term
will not end before Postmaster General
James is ready to propose a reduction OF
letter postage from three to two cents.
We have repeatedly suggested that the
result of the economy he is introducing
into his Department will be a reduction
of the rate of postage, and it is not rash
to predict that he will give the country
two-cent postage in 1854, if not before
that time. Look at the facts in figures.
Here, side by side, are the receipts and
the deficit Of the Department for the last
fiscal year:
Receipts. $50, iol. S2o
Deficit. .............. ............. 2.7s6.3il
Mr.. James has already effected a saw
ing OF more than tlree-quarters OF a
million dollars a year in the Department,
although he has been at work but three
months. 1t is probable that he will
double the amount before the end of the
year, so that the annual deficit of the
Department will not be more than a
million or a million and a half dollars.
II he succeeds in making such a saving,
he should hesitate no longer about pro-
posing two-cent postage for letters. The
loss to the Department the first year
from such a change could not exceed the
amount Of his savings, and it is probable
that the adoption of the two-cent rate
would ultimately increase, rather than
diminish, the receipts OF the Department.
When the postal card was introduced
many predicted that it would increase
the annual deficit of the Department.
On the contrary, it increased the aggre-
gate receipts. A contract has just been
made for the manufacture of postal cards
. enough, when placed end to end, to reach
around the globe six and a half times,
and vet more tbree-cent stamps are used
than ever before. Cheaper postage will
increase the communication Of people
through the post, and two-cent postage
will be in order as o as Mr.. James can
double his reduction Of the annual deficit
of his Department. 1t would be in order
now were it not better to prepare public
sentiment for the change by a year or
two Of his economy of administration.
