Acting POstmaster-General Jones has
made an important decision affirming
the right of postmasters to withhold from
delivery newspapers and publications
which they may consider libelOus or 9th
erwise obnOxions, according to the law
defining unavailable matter. The de-
cision was based on the action of the
postmaster at Davenport, Ia, who re-
fused to deliver from his Office copies of
a Kansas City publication, which he con-
sidered libelOus and obscene. A post
master cannot, in advance, decide that
he will not receive for mailing, Or refuse
to deliver copies of publications, but
must base his decision on an actual ex-
animation of an edition or issue.

On account of the large amount OF
mail matter that passes between this and
foreign countries, it would seem that
there should be some steps taken to reduce
the amount exacted for postage. Thous-
ands of people that arrive on our shores
are in very limited circumstances, and
to pay the postage makes it very burden
some. To transport letter to England
il costs five cents, and to many other
countries more. We think that the
amount should be reduced One-half. II a
letter is mailed to a point in England,
nay two cents for it, and let the two
countries divide it. If the postage is six
cents to any country place a three-cent
stamp upon the envelope and let the
United States have one cent and foreign
countries the balance. By this plan the
volume of mail matter would be largely
increased and the burden of expense
greatly lightened upon those who are
only possessed of limited means.

A majority of the speeches delivered at
Chickamauga, September 10 and 20 by
the Southern orators were very smooth
and touching, but occasionally one of
the Howell-Cobb school would spring up
and proclaim that their cause was just
and that they were merely OverpOwered.
The question arises, whether much good
is brought about by inviting these ex-
brigadiers to speak on public occasions.
The States right doctrine is still para,
mount in their minds, and as the seed
was sOwn many years ago, it has taken
deep root and is now hard to dislOdge.

Some parties made application to the
managers Of the Cotton Exchange exhi-

said such an exhibition was unlawful,

Dallas, Texas, great fair is soon to be
held and prize-fght between two men
is advertised to take place, and the au'
thorities claim no laws exist in the bOOI

Rheumatism Cured.

Rheumatism is caused by Tactic acid in
the blood attacking the fibrOus tissues of
the joints. Keep your blood pure and
healthy and you will not have rheuma-
tism. Hoods Sarsaparilla gives the
blood vitality and richness, and tones the
whole body; neutralizes the acidity of the
blood and thus cures rheumatism.
