The Postage Reduction.

| The law for the reduction Of postage
| from three &c two cents for every letter
weighing not more than half-an ounce,
went into effect yesterday and now we
have the cheapest postage that was
ever known In this country. This
makes the third time in the history OF
The nation that postage has been re-
duced Up to 1915 the rates OF
postage varied az cording to distance and
he weight of the letter. The postage
Tor common letter sent distance OF
thirty niles was six cents, and twenty
five cents for over four hundred miles.
In 1916 another change was made and
letters were carried any distance I'M
der three hundred miles for five cents
aud tor any greater distance ten cents
aud these rates could either be paid in
advance by the sender OF after the re.
ception of the letter by the receiver.
During the first fifty years Of the fedo-
raj postal service it was always the
rule never TO let the expenditures of any
year exceed the receipts, and even after
1888 when the introduction of railroads
had offered the temptation of great ex-
penditure, the deficiencies were.tritling
in amount to what they are now. There
nj ,ul h.,
thar cheap postage was an aid to educa,
ton bat 1t was merely a question Of
dollars aud cents.
Up % l845 the rates arranged
according to distance were in force but
in that year the first reduction in
rates was made and the postal system
materially simpliied. Under three
hundred miles the rate was five cents
and over that it was ten cents. Under
this revision the revenue fell off con
sidersbly, but there was only one year
in which there was deficiency. The
next reduction occurred in 1851 when
the rate vas fixed at three cents for
all distances under three thousand
miles. This practically took in the
whole of the United States, as there
was no point distant more than three
thousand miles from the other.
1t was not, however, until 1855 that
postage stamps came into general use.
Having departed from the old conserva'
live COURSE, deficiencies in the post Office
department followed year after yeah.
Railroads came into general use, the
western country opened up, post offices
were needed everywhere new post
routes had to be established that did not
pay,and it is not surprising that def
c!enCies were the order Of the day.
These deficiencies reached a maximum
in 1860 when ten and half mil.
lioas bad to be raised by general taxa
ZION to meet the deficiency. Every year
until 1865 was marked by defcien cy
varying n amount, but in that year
there was small surplus and now in
1888 we have another reduction of post
a edown to two cents. With tue rapid
increase in population, with the increas.
ed general intelligence Of the people, it
is natural to believe that there will he
no considerable deficiency in the future,
and now with postage on sealed lett ers
reduced to two cents and postal cards at
one cent nobody can complain Of
the great expense of letter writing.

Mr.. PARTRIDGE, who testified before
the Senate sub. committee on labor is
level headed and no ways backward in
calling things by the right name. He
says that two thousand of the three
thousand members of the Produce Ex
change of New York, of which he is a
member, are gamblers and the law OF
supply and demand had nothing what
ever to do with their speculations. The
only remedy,as Mr.. Partridge says, is u
make it penal offence for any man,
company or monopoly, to sell wheat or
any other article he did not control.
Mr. Partridge would even go farther
and make it penal offence to buy he
necessaries of life and hold them for
speculation. 1t is difficult to say how
this can be prevented, but no doubt
much could be done to stop wholesale
gambling in breadstuti's. The small re
'a!l dealers generally pursue a legiti-
mate business, but these men who 60
into the market and buy up crop be
tore il is harvested and sell it before it j.
garered, Is,as Mr. Partridge says, moth
ing but gambling. These are the men
who need restraining by law and should
be treated as nothing more than com
mon gamblers.

About a Mule.

The very first lesson installed into a
young blacksmith's mind is "pluck";
he mustn't show the "white feather
even in the presence of a mules hind
feet. Nevertheless, it won't do to be
too reckless in the proximity of a mules
hind feet, and said proximity is any
where behind the ears, as William r.
Phillips found a few days ago in shoe
ing pair belonging to John G. Bailey
at Fairbanks smithery. Standing un-
der the mules name he lifted up one of
its fore feet and the next second his
eyes were filed with stars while the
hind foot was blowing q furrOw from
the front to the back of his head. The
Smiths none of them were afraid of the
animal--the profession would not allow
that-but that mule could "kiek even
with its ears" and Mr.. Fairbanks not
wishing to run any risks with his work
men whose services are especially
needed, built himself set of Stocks,
and a mule which has thunder and
lightning both in his feet is swung from
the ground while q smith at each foot
shoes him in the space of few min
utes. Josh Billings said he would not
like TO go to mules funeral unless he
could hgo a good ways around in
'front.'" but Mr.. Fairbanks proposes by
his new contriyapoe Va gyQid funerals
at his place of business.

Where to Gun and Fish.

Perhaps the most practical convenient
and complete publication on cunning and
fishing and their various auxiliaries ever
printed, is the one recently issued by the
Passenger Department of the Philadelphia,
Wilmington and Baltimore Railroad Com
pany. Practical in that it not only informs in
concise terms where the severalkinds ofgame
fish and birds may be sought to best ad-
vantage, but how to reach such places in
the cheapest and most expeditions manner,
including not only the rail but, where nee
essary, the stage and wagon lines, with cost.
Convenient in being reduced to pocket
sze and in the arrangement of the matter
under different heads, so that the reader in
search of advice regarding a certain fish,
duck, or bird will find it in a special chap
ter describing its haunts, habits, rnd pecu-
liarities.
Complete from the fact that it takes in
the entire Peninsula, which contains Del
aware and the eastern shores of Maryland
and Virginia, from Chesapeake to the
Atlantic coast. The kinds and cost of bait
proper and legal seasons of the year, cost OF
| wagon or other transportation location OF
principal hotels and boarding houses, and
| all information, such as those unacquainteC
with the country would like to know before
leaving home for such trip, have beer
carefully examined into and noted.
The book is prOfusely illustrated will
cuts of fish and birds and also contains
splendid map of this territory.

Advantages OF Education .

At banquet given by President Conrad,
OF the City Council Of Wilmington, on FRI
day night last, among tn sc present to par
take in the feast was William Clayton,
bailiff, who being called on for a speech re-
spOnded in humorous manner, among
other things saying: Council had been a
great instructor in common sense to him, it
had been his school house. In learning he
had advanced SO rapidly that his former
associates don't get onto his cOnversa-
tiOn. Council had lifted him up and put
him on his feet, and he meant to stay there;
being mortal like some of the members he
would like to be reelected. He spoke of
President Conrad as having done much
good work among his people in educational
matters, just what his race needed to raise
it up"
William Clayton is n native Of this
county and when quite boy was inden-
tured to Mrs Cowgirl, who resided on q
farm near COwgilrs Corner. AT her death
she requested that Mrs. George w. Cum
Minis should take William, who was then
about fifteen years old and provide for him
when he was to be free. During the time
he lived at Woodlawn," Mrs. Cummins
and Mrs. DeHney, her mother, took quite
! an interest in him and, as is the custom
with the Quaker denominations, taught him
| TO read and write and instilled in him those
| good traits of character so peculiarily char
| acteristic of the Society of Friends. He
went to Wilmington from here, and was
employed to take charge Of steam engine
in mandatory and without any previous
knowledge or experience, proved himself
to be quite efficient and gave entire salts
faction to his employer, whose confidence
and good opinion he had carried. From
the field of honest toll he has drifted int
the mazy labyrinth of politics and judging
from his remarks, William has proved
himself an apt sahdlap He Ia q man of as
pifation and ambition and readily learn
the twists and turnsof politicians. /" hav
an axe togrind," he significantly remarked
and being mortal like some Of the mem
bers he would like to be reelected"
would seem that he is learning the ways Q
the politicians, the keenest eye being al
ways in the direction of the Offices.

The Landing Brick and Tile
Ward.

A visit yesterday to the Brick Yard
of Abel S. Riggs and the Tile Yard of
VIM. M. Bell showed them to be places
whose industries bear an important

boss worker particular satisfaction.
His hands are at work on another, at
the rate of 7 500 day and will burn
again in two or three weeks. He is
selling his first stock very fast.
Mr.. Bells Tile Yard which we have
frequently previously alluded to, has
perhaps never before been buster than
this Spring. The demand is every
where, and almost daily large loads of
them pass through the town on the
way to the depot for shipment. They
have made and sold from this yard
over 100000 of tiles. Mr.. CosgrifI
had just finished making the third or
fourth kiln for this season, and with
his gang of eight or nine men was set.
