A MONSTER MOUNTAIN OF CLAY
IN MONTANA.

We rolled onward through the midst
of tho grotesQue and picturesque buttes
for hours: and their broken, Jagged walls
and towering peaks stood out against the
clear sky. on either side to the line OF the
horizon. Suddenly, on our left, broad
strech Of beautiful grassy valley appeared,
sweeping away about d mile, gently curv-
ing upwards to the very base of one of
the grandest and l,rgest butteS Of ALL
which rises abruptly from the level plain
to a height of nearly 500 feet. This mon
ster mound stretches along parallel with
the railroad tor long distance It's spine
is broken by one large embrasure or pass
separating a small portion of it from the
main body. Its BALI and barren heights
are bIeached by the awful wintry tenn
pests, and on its SCARED and rugged bosom
is inscribed the epitaph of departed ages.
To il great cycles are but days, and cen
turtles but swift hours Of time. But even
how, among the "hills, Tock-rihbed and
ancient as the sun, and the wales stretch
ing in pensive Quietness between" the
joyful voice Of man and the busy hum of
labor awake the torpid echoes of the past,
which erst knew ~ sound but natures
wild. This monster clay mountain stands
on the verv border of Dakota, and marks
the line of Montana This is the great

BENDING LETTERS For Two CENTS :
President Arthur recommends that letter
postage be reduced to two cents Tie
statistic of the Postal Department and
the sentiment of the whole country are
favorable TO the immediate adoption OF
his suggestion The surplus revenue OF
the department this year is S. 1874, 30S. 81
and thu estimated surplus for next year
is SO, 929, 34502. The rapid growth III
the receipts of the department, together
with increased economy, has changed the
10000, 900 deficit OF 1866 into a nearly
$4 100000 surplus in 1882, and it is be-
lieved that little, if any, deficit would re-
suit from a.reduction Of postage to 2 cents.
When postal cards were introduced 1t was
feared that the receipts of the department
would be reduced, but, on the contrary,
they have2increased at the rate OF more
than 81 ,000, 600 a year. Cheaper letter
postage would greatly increase cowespon-
dence, and with faithful and efficient
management of the service, might ultl-
matey increase, rather than diminish,
the annual revenue Of tho Postal Depart
