WAsuINGroN, Sept. Gov. John
schuyler Crosby, who was first assistant
postmaster-general under the last admin
istration, and who had just come from a
visit under the same roof with Mr.. Blaine,
| with whom he has long been on personal
friendly relations, said to-day, 81 saw II
good deal of Mr.. Blaine this summer, and
found him In better health than for the
past five years. He is strong and hearty,
and his presidential defeat had
no effect upon his health, although
the disappointment was keen and deeply
| felt. His book occupies his whole atten-
ton now, aud he has no thoughts forany-
thing else. He works upon IL daily, de-
voting about three hours every morning
TO his writing. He has only about zoo
printed pages to prepare TO complete thc
work. Under his systematic methods lie
is enabled TO write ten OF these pages IN
n day. and In less than two months IN,
whole work will be off his hands. H'
rides and drives about the country
n rood deal, and continued
open-air exercise has kept him in prime
condition.

The attack of the dismissed post Office
clerk, Mr.. Moses Bradshaw, on the Third
Assistant Postmaster General meets a cold
reception. General Hazen's course is in
dorsed by the Postmaster General and also
by the last Congress. Since he came into
Office years ago the expenditures Of his
branch show a steady proportionate reduo-
tion. In 1877 they were 2.6 per cent. of the
total expenditures for postal service. To-
day they are but l.s per cent. The number
of postage stamps, envelopes. etc., used has
increased more than one hundred per cent
since 1877, while the total cost for the same
has been but slightly increased. The cost
per thousand for postage stamps has de-
creased over 81 per cent; for postal cards
over Go per cent; for stamped envelopes
and wrappers over % per cent, and for
registered packages, ETC., over As per cent.
In the last year the cost for stamps per
thousand has been reduced over % per cent. :,
and in the last nine years more than so per
cent. Against such facts as these Bradshaw
will find II difficult to kick.

not forget during the holiday recess, that a

wide expanse they patrol. They ought not
to wait until perhaps one of their own num-

fact that the force needs to be increased.

Is its laudable anxiety to crush out polygamy In
Utah. Congress should be careful not to break down
the rules OF evidence which time and custom have
proved essential to criminal procedure Is there any
thing in the necessity Of the case which demands
one rule OF evidence in prosecutions for polygamy,
and another rule 10 other criminal cases7 II So,
then the Judiciary Committee Of the Senate may,
perhaps, be justified in recommending that the law
full wife of any Mormon may be compelled to testify
against him, even though the offense be that Of
oigamy or plural marriage. II there is any case in
which the lawful wife should not be required to
testify against the husband, this one think, is the

There is too much attention given to the
question of where the projected City Post
Office should be erected, and too little to the
public necessity which requires better local
facilities for handling the mails. If our citi-

in their efforts to prevail upon Congress to
appropriate the necessary sum for the site and
building, by an earnest effort, we should
have some hope of an early settlement of the
question. By all means let US try to secure
the appropriation now, and reserve the wran-
gle over the locality for the building for after
consideration.
