bered that in 1868, when free delivery
was first established by law, the uni

tiers was one cent, and so it remained
until 1872, when in those cities where
carrier service was established it was
increased in order to defray the expense
of such service.

INDIAN RELATIONS.

From the report of the Secretary OF
War it will be seen that in only a
single instance has there been any dis
turbance of the quiet condition of our
Indian tribes-a raid from Mexico to
Arizona by small party Of Indians,
which was pursued by General Crook
into the mountain regions from which
it had come. 1t is confidently hoped
that serious outbreaks will not again
occur and that the Indian tribes which
have for so many years disturbed the
West will hereafter remain in peace

Origin Of the Term "John Bull"

DR.. John Bull was the first Gresham
Professor of music, and organist and
composer to Queen Elizabeth John,
like a true Englishman, travelled for
Improvement; and having heard of
famous musician at ST. Omers, he plac-
ed himself under him as a novice. But
a circumstance soon convinced the
master that he was inferior to the
scholar The musician showed John
song which he had composed in forty
parts! telling him at the same time
that he defed all the world to produce
person capable of adding another part
to his composition. Bull desired to be
left alone, and to be INDUCED for a
short time with pen and ink. In less
than three hours be added forty parts
more to the song, upon which the
Frenchman was so surprised that he
swore, in great ecstacy, he must be
either the deUu or John Bull which
has ever since been proverbial in En-

In the interval which must elapse
before the effects of the act of March 3,
1888, can be definitely ascertained a
portion at least of the surplus revenues
may be wisely applied to the long neg

and providing coast defenses for the
protection of our harbors.
