In 1879 daring miner, Edward Schief-
felin. penetrated Southeastern Arizona
and brought out the news of good ore and
plenty of it. His sole capital was $3.50,
but to-day he is millionaire. His spirit
is, however, unsubdued, and. signing like
Alexander, for other worlds to conquer,
he has sailed to the Arctic, and has there
discovered rich diggings on the head
waters of the Yukon River. Alaska will
receive thorough exploration this sum-
mer. AS soon as the country is released
from the icy embrace of winter, the adj
venturOus miners and prOspectOrs will
strike a bee line for the new country.
Rock of almost fabulous wealth is eX-
hibited in this city, coming from Alaska,
and stories are told of lodges 100 feet wide
full of free gold, Who knows but Hum
bOldt's prophecy, that i'll the North the
great matriX of gold is to be found, may
be verified? Certain it is that the mines
of Siberia have yielded an average of $22,-
1000 a year for the last seventy years,
and theiI product is greater now than

The Rennhlican Predicament in Ohio.

WdShiR0tOn Special TO baltimore Sun, 18th.
At the time when the Democrats of
Ohio nominated General Ewing for Gov
ernor of that State there was a strong sem
timent that Senator Thurman was the
man 20 win with. The Judge had, how
ever, positively declined to think of such
a thing, and, of course. it can never be
known whether the Democrats would
have been more successful with him than
with Ewing. Now the Republicans Of
Ohio appear to he in the same predicas
ment as the Democrats were at the period
referred to- Many of them say that Sena-
tor John Sherman is the candidate for Gov
ernOr with whom they may have some
hope of Feeaptnring the State from the
Democracy. But Mr.. sherman, following
the example of Thurman, has mtimated
a declination in advance of the prOHered
honor. Among the prominent Republi-
cans of Ohio who are insisting upon Mr..
Sherman's candidacy is the gentleman
VINO headed the nine insVhorGinates from
Ohio at the Chicago convention who pos
ifivelY refused to vote for sherman. He
now wants Sherman nominated for Gov
ernor. so that if elected he can be brought
forward III 1854 as the only available Re-
publican candidate for President. If
sherman should be nominated for Cover
nor and will accept, it Is suggested that
his personal friend Rush X. Sloane, be
nut on the ticket for Lieutenant Cover
nor. Mr.. Sloane in 1872 ran on the
Greeley ticket for Congress against the
nresent Governor of Ohio, Charles Foster,
and Mr.. Sherman would not canvass the
district in opposition to him because OF
their friendship.

England has never had an express
system such as the United States en-
joys. Therefore the government par
GELS post. which was put in operation
the first of August, is hailed as a
great convenience. The local rail-
ways have, up to this time. been charg
ing what they pleased for carrying
parcels. changing their tariff frequent
ly and without good reason. In most
cases these roads were monopolleS,
and so could not be reached by their
patrons in any movement for redress.
The Government parcels post has
limit of weight. which is seven pounds
with a limit of dimensions. Parcels
three feet six inches in length, nor
more than six feet when length and
and girth are measured. You could
thus send disc of any substance if
it did not weigh over seven pounds,
providing it were three feet six inche s
across and two feet six inches thick.
The package has to be handed in at the
postofiice. and, if correct as TO weight
and bulk, has stamp affixed, and goes
on its way at charge of threepence
for one pound, sixpence for three
pounds, nine pence for five pounds,
and the maximum of one shilling for
seven pounds. In forwarding books
the new parcels post works adyantag-
eously to the sender, the postage being
