lost and wandered to the bank of the
great Father Of waters, and to mark
their loute painted Il pole with pork
berries and stuck it in the ground. That
gave the place the name OF red stick.
But you know history is not always
reliable. Red stick is just too huge to
talk about, well, something like Lon
don, England. Now to come down to
plain facts there Is not town IN this
State but what is larger than Boston.
My dear Sir, there are towers IN many
places SO tall that you can't see the top
of them. These are supposed to have
been constructed by some OF the early
descendants of the Pilgrim Fathers. No
body ever attempts to 60 to the top or
any Of these towers. One man from the
Hub said he could go to the top of one
of their towers. That was years ago.
He has never come back. Its generally
supposed he starved to death. Those
old pilgrims done wonders. Their
marks are left all over this country.
These marks are generally written

know if this is Il ''timbered country"
Yes! but it was originally destitute of
timber. The same party that planted
Red Stick had a piece OF the old May
flower. They carried it as a relic, but
lost it, and to-day the entire State is
covered with dense forest that sprout
ed from that one splinter OF the May
flower. We sell ship timber nowaday
from the old stock Of the Maytlower.

is if we ''have any large lakes" Good

of our lakes. Then he asks IF the soils

Cheap Letter Postage.

The feasibility of reducing letter postage
has been discussed for a long time, and Mr..
Blaine's proposition for two cent rate was
received with general approval as soon as
made. The chief obstacle in the way has
been the annual deficit in the postal de-
partment, a deficit heretofore too large,
it was thought, TO be overcome by the in
crease of business which cheap postage
would bring about. The department is,
however, now nearly selfsupporting, the
cutting-down of the Star routes having
placed it close to a paying basis. The only
heavy burden upon 1t now is the transporta-
ton of merchandise that does not
properly belong to the department, and that
is paid for by letter-writers. This can and
should be left to the common carriers. The
Postmaster General has advised the House
Post Office Committee that the transporta-
ton of merchandise in the mails ought to
be dispensed with. as it is carried on at a
heavy loss. Now there is no good reason
why the Government should transport
merchandise at loss, if it should transport
it at all. 1t not disseminating intelligence
by SO doing On the contrary, it is making
the receipts from letters and printed matter
pay for good part of the freight business.
1t has thus become a tax upon the very
thing for which cheap postage is demanded.
By regulating the merchandise charges SO
as to make that department self-supporting,
it is not likely that 2-cent letter postage
would create deficiency,

1t may not be generally known to lands
men, bat all sailors are aware that, with a
strong and steady favoring wind, it is posi-
BILE for sailing vessel to equal the speed of
an Atlantic steamship. Mr.. Benjamin, in
his article on 1.-THE Evolution of the Ameri-
can Yacht in the forthcoming July Centu-
ry, compares the time made by some sailing
ships twenty and thirty years ago with that
of the fastest steamers of to-day. In one of
the recent "fastest passages ever made by
the Alaska her greatest run was 4l9 miles
in twenty-four hours. Before 1850, the ship
James Baines, built by Donald Mckay, ran
APO miles in twenty-four hours. The ship
Red Jacket, built at Rockland, Maiue, ran
$3.50 miles in seven days, or 325 miles per
diem for week. The Flying Cloud, Nc
Kay's most celebrated ship, once made 374
knots, or 433 miles, in twenty-four hours
and twenty-five minutes, equal to 17.17 miles
per hour. The difficulty sailing-yessels ex-
perience in competing with craft whose mo-
tive power is steam lies, not in the ability of
the ships, but in the fact that the wind is
unsteady.

The inclination of the American people
for practical knowledge is well exemplified
by the remarkable sale in this country of cy-
clopadias and other digests of information.
; The publication of the first edition of APP
pleton's ''American Cyclop@dia'' was begun
in 1857, and of the revised edition in 1873.
The entire aggregate number of volumes
printed has been one million four hundred
and fifty-nine thousand five hundred and fif-
ty Il ,459, 500, making an average, there be-
ing sixteen volumesdo set; of ninety-one
thousand two hundred and twenty-five sets.
This is certainly very remarkable sale of a
work of the magnitude and cost of the
american Cyclopadia." If we add to this
the sale of the Index and Annual volumes,
the number is increased to 1,722, $50. A
careful estimate of the sales, in different
styles of binding, shows that the public
have expended for this Cyclop@dia, includ-
ing the Annual volumes, over ten million
dollars
