The new plaa will be put into operation early ia the com ing year. Last October a circular waa issued by the department, asVing the Inventor of the country to exercise their wit in devising a suitable letter box for attaching to each citizen' door in every town and city in the Union. It was explained that the ob ject waa to aave the postman's time in waiting for an answer to the bell, and to render the delivery of mail a con venient to the recipient a possible. Bequiremeot was made that the re ceptacle should be cheap, neat in ap pearance, simple of operation, swore a gain it thtevea.and so constructed that iu oontrnU should be protected against- rain, aleet, mow and dust Tnrthermore, the mail waa not to be aoceesible at the eatae time to the postman and the recipient. In re sponse to this advertisement 400 model were submitted, but none of them Were deemed aalisfactory, and so a second circular, to similar effect, was sent ouL Ten hundred aod thirty-fire model rewarded this fecond appeal, aod among the number several de aign were thought deserving of com mendation by the commissi appoint ed for judging the competition. Only ms. however, was actually recom mended, and thia pattern will un doubtedly receive the official approval of the postmaster general.

Thkbi ia not another city in this Ut ao comfortably situated in every particular a ia St. Helen. We have three round-trip steamers daily to Portland and three trains, beeidea several other a teamen including those that carry the mail, in fact we have transportation facilities nnequaled by any city in the Ute outside pf Fort- land. The fnll length fcl uoiumou county i abundantly supplied with transportation lines, so that at almost any hour of the day or night our citi aan may board a steamboat or rail road train and hie themselves away to m. market at either end of the route- Portland or Astoria. If you have pro duce for the market you can board a steamer in the morning, lke it to the .rVt and return home the same dev. making 100 mile of travel, if you aUrt from Eainier.and allow you four or five hours in Portland.

The president and hi official advisors formed what might b aptly called a "nappy family" at the last cabinet meeting, and there was ample cans for happiness on the part o( the men whe socHrol and shape the policy of the present administration, which promises to occupy a proud portion in the eiatory or onr country, particularly that portion treating of tlx enlargement and ex tension of A nieriran commerce with foreign conu tries. Although the efflcM announce ment cannot yet be made, it is known that a reciprocity agreement has been mad with Ucrmeny that will either allow Amer ican wheat to enter that country free of duty or admit ail American grain at a merely nominal duty, hn'l that goo newer i-amcularlj when it is estimated that Germany, on acconnt of her short crop, will want at iesst 100.000.000 bushels of our surplus wheat this year. There waa also another raas for rejokiixa at the cabinet meeting. Minister Porter, who represents the Coiled States at Rome. Italy, has succeeded in svtiine the luliaa government to follow the lead of tiermanv and Denmark and agree te remove alt re- strictivos upon the importation of Ameri can pork. No wonder Secretary Rusk's kindly face bearaa these days, lie aecepted the agricultural portfolio because he be ne red that be could be ol service to the farmers of the country, and be is justly pmud to be a saember of an administration which has already don aaor tor American farmers then any single administration in the history of the country. Reciprocity has extended and will continue to extend our commerce, while the meat inspection law, the passage uf which waa largely due to the personal effort of Secretary Busk, is nobly doing its part towards enriching the Atuer lean farmer. The democrat hire been unusually un fortunate ia their Vecent misstatements. Everybody remembers toe announcement made with a great flourish of trumpets ia democratic newspapers about the time that Hoa. Frederick Donglaae resigned as United 6tste minister to Hsvti, to the effect that Mr. Douglas waa very much down on the administration, and that be proposed lead ing a revolt among the colored voters against if r. Harrison'a renominstion. Of course nobody who knew Mr. Douglas placed toe slightest credence in the story at the time it was started, and now, for the benefit of those who do not know him , k can be stated that he made the most affect ive denial possible, In a lectors here this week, by announcing himself as being in favor of a second term for Mr. Harrison. The loss of the United Ktates steamer. Dispatch, which fue some years has been known as the "president's boat," removes a veasei that has long been called by sailors Jonah," because of Uia many accidents which have happened te her. It is proba ble that she would hsve been condemned soon B she had not been wrecked. Secretary Tracy and Comiataadcr Folder, chief of the bureau of ordnance of the navy, paid an official visit to the Bethlehem Iron Works at Bethlehem, Peon., thia week) in order to inspect the forging of the steel that is being used to make the new guns for our aavy gun which experts pronounce to be the best of their class in the world. The secretary expresses himself as being pleased with what he saw. Thisia the first week of the October term of the supreme court, bat all the big cases have been postponed until next month. owing to the absence of Chief Justice Ful ler and the illness of Justices Gray and Bradley. The president broke the record this week while receiving- the members of the Ep worth Lescue by shskinr hands with 7u0 people in twenty-three minute. It is understood thst the vacancy in the court of etaim will be filled before the court meet for the fail term, which it will do on the last Monday in thia month, and there is an impression among those usually well Informed thst ex-BepresentaUve Thorn peon, of Ohio, will receive the ap pointment. Mr. Hatford, the president's private see retary, who has been quite ill, ia now im proving, though not yet able to resume his duties. lie is sadly missed when absent from the White house, particularly by the newspaper men, who alwaya find him ready to extend sll the courtesies in his power to them and to tell them anything which be may properly tell.
