Parcels by Mail.

The government of 1.-THE United
States. and the people of the Ueited
States boast of the popular form of
their institutions above all other
countries, when in truth we are far
behind many monarchial countries,
in some respects. We are almost
alone in being without the postal
system, and our rates on merchan.
disc are among the highest of any of
tie largest and most advanced ma
tions. The same cause which has
placed the government on the side Of
monopolies in every instance when
their interest and that Of the public
have met in competition must be
looked for to find the power which
has shaped the legislation. The ex-
tortionat express companies have
had more influence i'm Congress than
the people and have constantly
fought every move to lower the rates
of postage on merchandise of every
description, and have put forth their
efforts to entirely exclude this class
of matter from the mails. These
companies have thus far succeeded
in preventing a postal package law
from being passed, and will stave off
all efforts to release the public from
their extortionate grasp by cheaper
postage and greater facilities through
the mails,

Where log Cabins Flourish.

A party of American gentlemen, who
had been camping out on an island in the
great Lake Nipissing, Canada, last summer,
were returning in sail boat and were yet
seyen miles from port when the sun went
down, and with it the sailing breeze.
A discouraging situation, truly.
"Never mind, I can row you there inside
of two hours" said the guide who had
charge of the party, as their murmurs arose.
"Why, man, it is seyen miles, there are
four of us in this heavy boat-its big job
you undertake" said one.
"No matter, hav done the likes before
and can do it again." cheerfully replied the
broad-shouldered Irishman, as he slowed
away the sail and bent to the oars. He
was splendid oarsman and the boat was
soon under headway again.
"Whst would / not give to enjoy your
health and strength" remarked the Pro.
fessor.
"Yes, I am pretty healthy. and though ]

piled the guide "But only three years age
