WASHINGTON. ID. C., January 6, 1881. !
At the request of the General Superin-
tendent If ulwav Mail Service. the Post
master. General desires TO impress upon the
management Of all railway companies the
importance OF substituting safety heaters for
all other stoves now in Use in railway post
Office cars or route-agent>' apartments. Safe
" heaters are required by the Department to
be placed in oil new pOsial-caIs and upon
those undergoing repairs, ana II railway
companies would make their use universal
il would in cise OF accident prove very adj
yautageou> 10 both the companies ana the
Department. a. by using them the occur
renee OF fires in railway po>tal-cars would
be almost absolutely prevented, The railroad
property would thereby be preserved. and
The probability OF the destruction OF mails
by fire be reduced OIhe minimum.
Recent railway accidents have demon
srrated the absolute necessity Of placing
saws. axes. ard hatcher in each mail'car
or mail anariment, and railway companies
are urgently requested to supply these I'M
plements a. speedily as possible.

CINCINNATI, January S.-The icei> moving
in the Ohio river from Pomeroy 10 North
Bend. The steamer General Lttlle was cut
down tins morning and sunk in seven feet
OF water at the Covngton landing mere.
She is valued at $4,000, and may prove a
total los. The Eldorado ~ Portsmouth l.
damaged "a the extent OF 900. There
il no insurance against such losses. Al
noon il was known that a large destruction
of empty coal-barges attended The breakup
OF the ice in the Ohio river. The number
lost is said to be fifty. Their value is about
81 900 making the total loss 100000.
The owners of the bal ges bad taken extra
ordinary care TO secure them by cables, and
their loss was unexpected. The want OF
such barges in the case Of coal flse IN
Ohio is more than their worth.
