Something New,

The new stamped letter sheet soon
to be issued by the p~ost-ofice depart
ment promises to be a great conven-
fence to the public. 1t is a letter
sheet and envelope combined, a per-
forated line running around the sheet
with the narrow spaces outside over
spread with mucilage, SO that the
sheet may be folded and securely
fastened. The letter, when ready for
mailing, resembles the style in use
before envelopes were invented. This
the government stamps in loose
sheets and collectively in pads, and it
will be put on sale soon at some of
the leading post-offices throughout
the country. AS it can be produced
at a very low figure, and affords the
same security that an envelope does,
1t Is expected to take the place, to a
considerable extent, Of the postal
card.

after Connella had made proof, the
bank purchased from HIM, received
information from Washington Tues
day, that Secretary lamar had re-

teen days after the date of entry.
The claimant had established actual
residence as a squatter August IA.
1883, eleven months and twenty-one
days before making proof. On July
3, 1885, Commissioner Sparks over
ruled the decision of the local officers
on the ground; first, that the proof
was premature, as claimants entry
should have been on record six
months before proof was offered; and
second, that the proof was insufficient

On the 5th of March, 1886, the sec
rotary of the interior, on appeal, re-

the first point, that residence for six
months after entry is not in all cases

A CELESTIAL COMPLAINT.

The Chinese Minister at Washington Conn
plains of the Discourtesy Extended to His
Successor.
WASHINGTON, April S.-The Chinese
Minister at Washington has made formal
complaint 10 the Secretary of State in re-
gsid to the treatment of his successor at
San Francisco at the hands of the United
States customs officers. He bases his ac-
ton on information received from the Chi
nese Consul General at San Francisco, who,
it is understood, alleges that the new Min
lister and his suite were subjected TO UNI
usual and unnecessary annoyances and dis
cOurteses on their arrival at that
port. The Secretary of State re-
ferred the matter to the Acting Secretary
of the Treasury, who, yesterday afternoon,
teegraphed to the Collector of Customs at
San Francisco for a statement of the con-
duct of his officers in the matter. Some
surprise is expressed at the Treasury De-
partmcnt that the landing of the Minister
should have been attended by any delay or
| embarrassment in view of the fact that the
