Chenn Postage.

The question Of q cheaper rate Of
postage 10 pressing itself en- commercial
and legislative attention more and more
every year. There is, to be sure, no
country in the world where letter can
be sent 30 great distance for so small
q sum but this 10 not Q fair way OF
looking at the matter. In the first
place, there 10 no other country 90 large,
with q writing, commercial population,
whose needs, enterprise, success, re-
quire the almost hourly use of the Post
Office and the telegraph. In the second,
the growth, development, and almost
the safety, Of the nation depend upon
the facility and rapldity OF iDtercom
mHuication between all ito component
parts. The item of postage Is q heavy
oGe in the expenses of all our CONNER
clal houses. 1t is in certain sense, Q
form of taxation, and any step that can
be taken in the direction of lesssning il
is desirable and would be for the benefit
OF the whole people. The recent re.
forms In the management this branch
of the public service show that q good
deal OF work Of this nature remains Il
be doRe In that department. If the
policy Of Mr.. James 10 steadily carried
out there can be no doubt that the pro
posed reduction which Ii provided ful
In bill by Mr.. Anderson can bA pru
IDENTIFY made, il not at present, within
very few years.

has had his influence. A female bur-
glaI has turned up in the person Of .
very pretty and well educated young
woman, in Fredonia, N. Y, who
claims that she va inspired to COM
init burglary. ln the absence of q
gentleman and his family, she had
gone to the residence with young
man, much her junior, and robbed II
Of silk dresses, china sets and other
valuables to the amount Of $1,000.
Both parties we're arrested and the
stolen articles found in their homes.
They confessed the crime. The
woman, like Guiteau, charged her
crime to the inspiration Of the Lord,
and The young man to the seduction
of the woman. The devil seems to
have gotten the better Of these people,
and to escape all censure for his IN
fluence over them, just as he has cap.

s'P.otsolIon" 20 Buildlnr stone

As an example of how the tariff
works We will instance the case of our
sister city, San Diego. There is no
building stone within reach of her in
American territory, but just across
the Mexican border, within q few
miles of her, easily reached by vessels,
is an island containing q vast quarry
of most excellent brown freestons,
which could be laid down where need
ed at triniBg cost. In the other ex-
treme of our country, nearly 4,O0C
miles away, the little State of Vermont
has some marble quarries, and in
order to protect these Vermont quar-,
ries against the importation of Italian
marble, in order to force the users OF
this material in the East to support a
few men in bad business, San Diego il
prevented by prohibitory tariff from
using most excellent building ma
terial that lies at her very doors. -Sar

pears from the dispatch from SAn
Francisco, which we publish else.
where, that Mr.. Sargeant's "Dessrl
Land Act" has created great excite
ment in that State, where he was the
means of enabling ring of Gland
grabbers" to secure thousands OF
acres of the best lands for 25 cents al
acre, before the people living near the
lands said to be "desert" were aware
OF its passage. Sargeant's agents
seem to have been already prepared
to buy up the lands as soon as the ac
passed Congress.

1t requires a good
many warnings to make men careful.
The accident that resulted in the
death of several persons and the seri-
ous injury to seventy or eighty others
at shanesville, Ohio, on saturda,
evening is terrible warning, but not
more terrible than several other such
accidents which occurred during 1881
Societies should never take such risks
