MISTAKES OVER NEW POSTAL CHANGES.
The changes in postage which went into
effect on the first instant, have occasioned
quite number of mistakes from those who
had not clearly understood the new rates.
The letter postage is two cents for every
letter of an ounce weight or less. The old
rate was two cents for each half ounce or
less, and the increased weight allowed,
which is just double, led to the impression
that if two cents would carry an ounce, one
cent would carry half-ounce letter. Con-
sequcntly number of letters were received
at the postotlice each with one-cent stamp
on it. They will of course be held for post
age, and the writer's by going to the postof-
flee and putting on another one.cent stamp
can have them forwarded.

so this CITY, have seat in a petition to the
Virginia Midland and the Alexandria and
fredericksburg Railway Companies, asking
them to cooperate and place llagman at

occurred there. The approaches TO the
railroad tracks on each side are in cut

it could be done at small expense to each
road. The petition bore the signatures Ct
about two hundred persons, including most
Of the medical profession Of our city.

A Verv Slight Loss of Stock.

Hon. Alb. Galloway dropped in to tell
US about the condition Of stock. Tho
loss of cattle in the past ssvers winter
will not exceed 2 per cent. in the Boise
valley. 1t is not as great as in the or
binary mild winters. Mr.. Galloway
made six trips to the Snake river and
saw but one dead COW. He accounts for
this by two causes. When the heavy
snow fell all the stockmen in the valley
gathered up what cattle could be found
and the rest was beyond the limit OF the
snow. Before the first storm the grass
had taken good growth and the freezs
kept it; unlike other springs, there have
been no cold rains and summer started
in with a whoop. Hence, despite the
snow, stock finds all tho feed it wants.
The Oregon Horse and Land (Mr.
Blewitt's) company loses 1000 out OF
1000 on the Oregon ranges. Or the
company's four bands in Owyhee there
is no loss. Tom Glenn and other small
raisers in Oregon sustain heavier losses
than Mr.. Blewitt's company.
