TO THE GRADUATE.

Astoria is one of ten thousand COM
munities that is about to send forth
into the world of work and enterprise,
its group of graduates, who in time,
must take up the ministration of the
affairs Of the world. They are the sure
inheritors of all their fathers stand for,
and to them the nation looks for the
quality and quantity of its best servi-
tors in the stupendous realm of its safe
conduct through the years to come.
The professions, society, the trades, the
arts, and sciences, all rely upon the
hosts of young people now entering the
arena of national activity, to supply the
brains, the character, the energy, the
stimulous, the splendid successes. that
contribute to its glorious permanence;
and the Astorian hopes to see the day,
and record the news, of the preeminenee
of some, or all, of this city's complement
of new blood, now put forth, in the
eventual progress and place of the coun-
try. Faith and honor, courage and pru
dence, loyalty, and the resolution that
is inseparable from good citizenship, are
the elements that make for the glad
fruition of the years, and to each, and
all, of those about to enter upon this
high estate, we wish an abundance of
everything that will afford them the
fullest and best realization of supreme
success in whatsoever walk of life may
be theirs. The family, the school, the
city, the state, that sends them forth,
all indulge the same dear hope, cherish
the same proud ambition, and will, se
verally, contribute to its accomplish
ment.

TELEGRAPH, OR MAIL.

There is a nasty howl going up from
San Francisco. about the telegraph com
panies, who, it is alleged took in mil
lions of dollars for telegraph tolls during
the awful disaster in that city last
April, and instead of sending them
through by wire, for which the regular
rates were charged the senders, des-
patched them by way of the United
States mails, thus making an enormous
profit, and causing a wholesale delay in
their transmission. We simply do not
believe it. There may have been de-
tached cases of this sort, where the
mails Were really the most effective in
composing the delivery of messages;
but that the Western Union, or the
Postal, at a season of that sort, delib.
erately entered upon a scheme SO rank,
SO easily unmasked, so foreign to the
spirit of their business, is not to be
taken at one credulous gulp. In the first
place, it was not twenty-four hours
after the outbreak of the terrible condi-
tions at San Francisco, before the com
panies were practically refusing all
business, except upon the plain and un-
derstandable basis, that if the messages
were taken it was at the sender's risk
of detention and delivery. That the
vast bulk Of the business was sent to its
destination, or as near to it as was pos
sibie, by wire,is the safest and most rea.
sonable conclusion; and that it was des-
patched over the final reach of its route
by due course of mail in many instances,
was done in the employment of the most
expeditions means of delivery. There
are two sides to this story, and we ven
ture the conclusion that when all is un-
derstood, the companies will be, not only
acquitted of such an astounding breach
