From Fairbank.

IA young lady recently penned a few words to the PRosPECroR, giving her version of the cause of the delay in receiving the mails from Bisbee. The initial "W" was placed at the bottom of the communication. The postmaster at Fairbank was blamed for the delay. The postmaster of course did not know that the writer of the communication was lady or he would not have penned the choice literary production which, at his re- quest, the PRosrEcToR reproduces in print.

HILL TALKS,

| ALBANY-Senator Hill appeared be- fore the convention and thanked the delegates for their support. Contin- uing MT, Hill said:
 "The sherman silver law now trans forms the federal coinage power of silver and gold into an instrure ent for the gradual expulsion of our gold for the establishment of an exclusive basis and for the permanent reduction of every American dollar by thirty per cent or more below the level of its true valne, during the whole period of our free bi-metallic coinage from 1872 to 1883. Shall such law stand?
 "There has been no such legisla- ton for freem.n since Cromwell called the law Of England "tortuous and ungodly tumble" SILVER PLANKs. ALBANY-We steadfastly adhere to the principles oi E sound finance. We are against the coinage of any silver dollar which is not of the intrinsic value oi every other dollar of the Uni |
 ted States. We, therefore, denounce the new Sherman silver law under which one-tenth of our gold stock has been exported and all our silver out put is damned up at home, as a false pretense and actual hindrance o: re- turn to free bimetallic coinage and as tending to produce change from one kind of monometallism to another. We therefore unite with friends of honest money, ever stigmatisiRg the Sherman progressive silver basis law as no solution of the gold and silver question.
