WILMINGTON. MONDAY. JAN. 22.
Cheap Postage.

The United States Senate did a good
thing, on Saturday, In changing the date for
the reduction Of general letter postage from
January, 1884, to the first Of July next, as
the proposed reform can be effected as
readily in ak months Is Il year, and the
people be largely the gamers thereby.
The reduction Of general letter postage
from three 10 two cents is measure that
should pass Congress without the slightest
opposition, and even a wholesale reduction
10 penny postage would not be q bad idea.
Experience has proven that q reduction In
postage serves TO stimulate the use Of the
mails 10 an amount more than sufficient 70
cover the figures Of the reduction, so that
the government is not the loser by the trans-
action.
Bat aside from all questions Of profit and
loss, it is the duty of the government TO pro
vide the people with good postal facilities at
the lowest possible cost. Trueit is desirable
that the post office department be made
self-sustainiBg, but II should never be re-
garded az a money making machine, even
for the benefit Of the people. Every dollar
realized over and above the expenses OF the
service thould be returned to the people
through the medium Of cheaper postage,
that the poorest citizens can use the mails
freely and without stint.
At present the post Office department is
not making mint of money, nor Is it prov
ing Il sink-hole for the wealth of the people.
But its revenues are steadily increasing, and
to the reduction of postal rates during the
past few years this gratifying increase is
credited. With letter postage a: two cents
thousands of additional letters would be
sent through the mails, and We have not the
slightest doubt that at the end Of a year &
trial the revenues Of the department would
show an increase, despite the reduction 0!
one-third in the ratee Of postage.
Rowland Hlll's introduction of the "penny
''post" system In England was laughed al
as chimerical idea, and even in this coun.
try the establishment OF uAiiorm rate fol
letter postage, regardless of distance, was
at FIRST, bitterly opposed as a measure Of eX
trayagauce and q burden upon the people
Both experiments proved brilliantly success
iul, and no man need now fear to adYocat t.
reduction Of postage to the lowest rat
consistent with the cost Of mail service anC
delivery. Every penny taken oG the rate
is added to an increased business, ant
through the encouragement thus afforded
the mails are used SO largely that the total
reduction Is soon met and easily overcome
BY all means let the postal rates be reduces
and let the reduction take effect as soon a
possible

CIrr CoUNcn did not make much bead
way with the new charter, on Saturday
night, and there is but little prospect that
its movements Will be accelerated at future
meetings, as a reconsideration Of action
taken on Saturday night ls promised at the
next session. At this rate it win take at
least six weeks 70 get through with the
bulky document, and if the delay IA 70 be
still further aggravated by pro
I0ngei and useless discussions the
Legislature win get away from Dover be-
fore the charter is passed upon by the City
Council. It was a fatal mistake to delay
the preparation Of the charter in the first
place, as there Is no earthly reason why It
should not have been ready for presentation
to Council by the first Of December. Had
this been the case It might have been passed
upon by this highly hypercritical body
by the middle Of February, and
thus allowed the Legislature some
time for investigation and intelligent
action. We await the result Of to-night's
session Of Council with considerable interest,
and sincerely hope there will be a disposition
manifested By majority Of the members
to choke OF all useless discussion and con
tinue the important work In an intelligent
and business like manner.

THE Morntfsg Heps was In error, as u-ual,
in charging Senator Cooper's bill in relation
10 the old county buildings at New Castle
as an attempt to grab" this property for
tie benefit of his city. In truth the contrary
was his object, as the abandonment of these
buildings by the county caused them to re-
vert TO the people Of New Castle, and Senator
Cooper's bill places their title in such shape
that they can be used by the county for
public purposes whenever it is SO desired.
Meanwhile, the trustees TO be appointed can
keep the buildings in repair and good order.
The .}eps owes Senator Cooper an ample
apology but i IL very doubtful if it will be
honest enough to make the amende honor

IN Truth, one VOC doth tread upon
" another's heels, SO fast they come" ard
the Newhsll House disaster is scarcely out
of mind before other frightful holacausts
are reported. Yesterdays news was un-
usually prolific, and included the sinking
of the steamer Cimbria with a loss Of life
that may reach three hundred, horrible
railroad accident In California by which
twenty persons we're crushed and burned
70 death, and powder explosion IN the
same State which sent number of China
men to eternity. Such frightIully rapid
recurrence Of horrors is appalling, and one
naturally wonders what next will happen
to shock the public mind aud awaken The
sympathy Of the world at the extent OF the
suffering occasioued.

ONCE ~ great while an "honest con.
'fession" innocently comes from unexpected
sources, and the .Neus made a very impor-
tant one this morning In the announcement
that "despite the industry and energy Of the
" asaessors there are hundreds of men con
:. stantly unassessed. The floating popula,
g tion Of the city is so large that no two
" men, nor even four, can keep pace with
SIT" Heretofore the burden of the Nsus'
complaint has been that Democratic ASSESS
ors assessed too many Democrats and re-
fused TO assess many Republicans person
ally known to them, but now that the cleo
tlon is over it blurts out the real truth.

TlIR PROPOSITION Of the Levy Courts
Legislative Committee to divide the city of
Wilmington into four assessment districts
is very sensible one, though perhaps three
districts would answer the purpose better
BY this means the work Of assessment would
not only be facilitated but It's thorough
efficiency assured, as four, or even
three men, assigned to smaller districts,
could naturally make more complete as
sessment than The TWO officials who are now
