An APPEAL representative called

said that there was no cause, in his

He continued: To-day we re-

were simply official letters, which
always follow and substantiate the
dispatches. About three weeks
ago a dispatch was received stating
that the appropriation for the Mint
at Carson was exhausted, and that
we were to purchase no more silver
bullion except partings from gold
bullion until further notice. The
dispatches we're published in the

\ Hs office Romance.

On one occasion gentlemanly
looking person expressed a fear
that he had enclosed two letters in
wornc envelopes, and that all his
prospects in life depended on his
having his letters back and correct
ing his mistake, inasmuch as they
revealed plans which he had
adopted. to save two mercantile
houses in the same line of business
whose interests claSheo at every
point. A similar blunder occurred
in IA more delicate affair, when a
young lady was most urgent to have
her letter returned, as she had ac-
cepted the wrong offer of marriage
The local Postmaster was unable to
resist her earnest entreaties, and
thus prevented a painful eatastro-
phe, But a whole romance might
be written on the following incl
dent: A young lady who had been
engaged to prosperous young
manufacturer, was informed, a few
days before the marriage was fixed
for, that the firm was insolvent.
Not a moment was to be lost, and
a letter was written and posted,
breaking the engagement; when,
within two hours, it was discovered
that the the report was entirely
unfounded. The report continues:
"The daughter and her parents
rushed to the Postofice, and no
words can describe the scene-the
appeals, the tears, the wringing OF
hands, the united entreaties Of the
family to have the fatal letter re-
stored, but alasl all was in vain; the
rule admitted Of no exception.
