be paid in advance, either at the mail

We're repealed by anact of June, 1874,
which went into force Jan. 1, 1875,
The rate of postage on mail matter of

for every two ounces or fraction there
OF. The law of March 5. 1875, made
the rate cent for every ounce or frac-

laws the letter postage was 8 cents for
each %half-ounce or fraction thereof; on
local and drop letters in free delivery
offices, cents for every half.ounce or

The Bloody CANYON.

A correspondent of The San Fran
CISCO Chronicle who has been exploring
the Sierras IN the vicinity of the Yose-
mite thus describes the .sbloody can
yon' which lies about forty miles
from the valley. Toward evening we
neared the head of the bloody canyon
at what is known us the Mono pass.
Never before had we gazed on such a
scene of ~barrenness and utter desola-
ton as that which was now open be-
fore US. Being so near night the effect
was doubly enhanced. To the west
the sun was yet an hour high and was
tinging here and there the snow-cov-
cred granite with blood-red spots,
while the shadow intervals were Of the
color of blued steel, but to the east and
below us it was to all intents and pur-
poses night. An occasional sparkle at
II feet, very far below, denotes the
presence of a lake, and the mufied
roar and hiss also told of waterfalls,
probably cascades in the outlets of the
various lakes, which, from description,
we know existed in this canyon, but
now could not see,
The canyon is the usual V-shaped
gorge Of all the California CANYONS.
But this n is a giant among pvgmies,
The northern slope is at least 5000
feet deep, and the southern one fully
1000 feet in depth. And we find from
sketches made at the time that the
angle of the slopes is as sharp as go or
20 degrees, with many perpendicular
faces of 800 or 1000 feet. Now, in.
this evening light, the top of the great
cliffs was Of a deep purple-red, with
black.purple shadows; the face to the
north was a series of great ridges,
running vertically in parallel lines to
the slant of the rock, and each ridge
notched and broken up into a series of
saw-llke indentations. The shadows
OF the Sierra wcSe projected below far
out on to the brok>a plain, but ceased
at the foot of a misunderstanding
mountain on the edge of Mono lake.
The lake and the distance we're in a
beautiful rosy light where the sun
struck the ground beyond the shadows.
The general effect was grand beyond
description.

In a R%eading-Room.

/ suppose there IS an immense
amount of misery in some lives. There
is some in all. The other day, early
in the morning, n friend of mine went
into the reading-room of the free IL
brary to look at a paper. 1t was en-
gagged. He went back to work, and
worked on until lunch time, when he
walked into the library once more.
The same nan sat there read
ing the same paper. He thought
it was curious, but he did
not disturb him. He went in again at
3 o'clock. The same man sat in the
same place reading the same paper.
He walked up behind him and took a
look. The paper was upside down.
There is a chance for speculation over
what condition that mans mind was
in. The successful man of business
would naturally say that he was lazy
and lacked energy, and would despisc
him. 1t is SO easy to believe because
you make money easily, everybody
ought to be able to do it. l am a be-
lever in luck. l have seen "a great
many men whose abilities were far be-
You'd the average. whose energy was
~unceasing, struggle, and fight, and
work, and-fall. I have seen men in
seedy clothes, poor and hungry. starv-
ing half the time, upon whom their
successful fellows looked with con-
tempt, who were purely the victims of
bad luck. They are men who never
complain. If you meet a man who
whines over his condition and his luck
you may set him down as entirely at
fault himself. But the charity of this
world takes no account of tempera-
ment, of physical conditions, or of
mental eccentricities. Some people
are broken all to pieces by shocks that
would hardly affect others. Some peo-
pie will break where others only bend.
