End OF the g MusseI Slough" Controversy

End OF the /" Mussel Slough" Controversy.
WASHINGTON, December 7th.-The judg.
ments of the Circuit Court of California in
favor of the railroad company in the Mussel
Slough cases have been affirmed by the Su'
preme Court of the United States, thus end
ing forever that controversy in favor of the
Southern Pacific Railroad Company.
Postal Telegraphy.
WASHINGTON, December 7th.-The postal
telegraph question is likely to come up in
several forms at the present session of Con.
gress. The bill of Senator Edmunds has
been supplemented by one of Senator Hill,
the latter being an elaborate scheme for the
absorption of the present lines of telegraph
by the United States Government. On Mon.
day, Sumner of California will introduce q
bill on the same subject into the House, he
having for many years studied the problem
of postal telegraphy. Sumner hopes to force
his bill on the attention of the House. 1t
has already received some notice from mem.
bers. Those from the South, notably Ran
dolph and Tucker from Virginia, object to the
measure on the ground that its tendency is
toward paternal government, but all have
agreed to give the bill their attention.
Summers bill proceeds on the theory that q
postal telegraph should be part of the
Postoffi e Department, and provides for
the appointment of Fourth Assist
ant Postmaster-General, who shall be
an electrician, and who shall take
charge of the new service. The details
of service are left to the Postmaster Cen
eral. Bonds to the amount of S25, 600, 600.
bearing 8 per cent, in denominations not
exceeding $50, to run for thirty years but re-
deemahle i'll twenty, are to be issued to CON-
struct the new lines of telegraph under the
supervision of the Postmaster General The
bill provides that work shall commence at
certain points in the country simultane ously.
On the Pacific coast those points are Port
land, Yreka, Sacramento, San Francisco. Los
Angeles and San Diego, thus making a com
piete coast line The whole system is to be
opened fifty miles at a time. and any commu-
nifty desiring to connect with the lines first
built may do so, and their lines, if built as
required by the Postmaster. General, may be
accepted by him and paid for. Summers
maximum rates on these lines is 10 cents for
the first ten words, and cents for each addi-
tional ten words. His maximum press rate,
uniform all over the country, is 20 cents per
100 words. In the transmission of letters,
the use of stamps, the rights of correspond
ence, secrecy, etc., the bill is similar to that
of Senator Hill. The low bond is designed
to place the loan in the hands of the people
Of the country.

Speaker CarIisIe's Views on the Tarin
Question.

BALTIMORE. December 7th The Sun this
morning publishes the following authorized
statement of Carlisle's views on the tariff
question Carlisle knows the present law is
not reform of the old law therefore he f1-
vors It's revision. believing that at least the
reduction of 20 per cent. recommended by
the Tariff Commissioners should be made,
and that the increased rates of duty, by
which the promised objects of the bill of last
season were perverted, should be reformed
He says it is the duty of this Congress to
fulfill the broken promises of the last, aud
there is no clsmor against the needed action
except from those who succeeded in reaping
undue advantage from the last revision.

PERSECUTION.


Tire Ryno Journal gives the follow
ing account of the Kinkead and Crock
IT Indictment, which everybody who
knows either of these gentlemen re
CARDS as persecution rather shan pros
ecution:
The Grand jury came into Court
Yesterday afternoon and presented true
brfls against Jas. ii. Kinkead L. L..
Crockett and l.. b. Batchelder, being
what is known as the Savings Bank
cases, found by the last Grand
Jury, the Indictment being dism &sed
and the cases re.submitte@ to the pres
ent Jury. Rumor has it that the bills
were first ignored by vote of six 10
eleven, but they were brought up
again, and the next vote stood twelve
to five. The general impression and
sentiment of the community was
aga inst the finding of bills, but the
Grand Jury having but one side of the
case, felt it to be its bounden duty to
indict the parties, and the matter will
now have to be settled in the regular
wap. Mr.. Crockett has been IN town
for the hast three days, and was anxious
to be heard but no opportunity was
afforded him i'm the Star Chamber.
