LETTER CARRIERS HAPPY.
Their Bill Passed - Hereafter to Work
Only Eight Hours.

The letter carriers of Richmond were
made happy yesterday All the letter
carriers in the several cities OF the L nion
perfected organizations two years ago
and others since TO urge Congress TO
enact a law by which the arduous work
OF the letter carriers would be alleyiated
somewhat What they wanted was Il
very simple proposition, viz, that they be
required to tramp the city delivering mail
to the ci;y's inhabitants not more than
eight hours per day. A bill was intro
duced in Congress by Hon. ; : Cox,
providing for this. II passed the House
by large majority aud then went to the
Senate.
The Senate tackled on al amendment
that the hours of service in each city be
regulated by the Postmaster General
The amendment was finally rejected and
the bill in It's original shape was passed
by the Senate yesterday, and this it is
that makes the carriers happy. They are
hard-working deserving men and have a
right to be joyful.

tie day before and the case presented 10
the jury by counsel on either side.
The first witness was Colonel II. T.
Hubbard, the plaintiff He detailed at
length the transactions he had had with
Mr.. J Thompson Brown. Spats between
counsel on points of law and evidence,
and repeated objections to testimony at
tempted TO be brought out enliyened the

spectators present
Colonel Hubaid was on the stand
from 10 o'clock until l:15, when a recess
was taken until 280 at which hour the
court rcasscmbled when he again went
on the stand and the fearful cross exami-
