Word has been received from Wash
ington that the mail contract fol
carrying the mails between jackson
and Plymouth, which was awarded tc
r. Sutton, has been cancelled. This
is the route that has heretofore beer
in the hands of Steiner for several
years. AS a mail route it is to bt
discontinued, as other changes made
in mail lines render this particular
one no longer necessary. The railIoac
service will include between jackson
and Amador City, and the stage lint
from Carbondale to Plymouth VII
answer for the north end of the coun
ty. The gap for the accommodation
of Drytown, between Drytown and th'
Central house, will probably b
br1dged by a separate contract. Th
new schedule will take effect mex
month. Steiner will continue to rul
his stage line as of yore. We presume
however, that the opposition line o
Sutton Will not materialize now tha
the mail contract has been Cancelled.
