Nineteen thousand eight hundred
dollars a year was the sum paid for
mail service in Nevada over a route
w hich is thus described by an inspector
who investigated the cam) and made a
report of the facts U the department :
"During the whole journey of nearly
200 miles the only living creatures I
saw, except at two stations were seveu
sage hens, one coyote, two jack-rabbits,
a few larks and a few chipmunks or
ground-squirrels." The contract for
this" service was let originally to a stage
driver for Hilmer fc (Salisbury for $5,
900 and when he failed to execute it
was awarded to his employers for $10,
700, and they obtained an order for
expediting, which made a fat thing of
it Of course the service has been dis-
' continued.
Old Style-New Style.
The exact length of a' year is 3G5J
days, lacking about 11 minutes. In
correcting the calendar, nearly 2000
years ago, Julius CR'sar reckoned it at
365$ days, and mado every fourth year
consist of 366 days. This is an excess
of 45 minutes in four years; and this
error being discovered, Pope Gregory
XIII ordained another correction to
take place in 1268. He ordered that
the dates should be altered so that the
fixed feasts of the church should take
the dates they would have had if there
lyid been no error, from , the time of
tho Council of Nice A D.,325. The
error amounted to ten days, so Christ
mas day, 1581, was celebrated on the
15th of December, but it was called as
liefore, the 25th, that is ten days
were omitted. England did not adopt
this change until 1752; it was ordered
that the third-day of February should
be called the fourtonth, thus omitting
eleven days. Washington was bom
February 11, 1732, O. &; to adjust it
to new style, his birthday is put on
the 22nd, for the day that would have
been on 11th of February would that
year and thereafter be called tho 22(1.
Another change was also made in
Brittain and her colonies' with the new
style. The beginning of tho year was
changed from the 25th of March to the
1st of January, so that 1751 lost its
January, February, and twenty-four
days of March, and thoy were counted
as tho first part of th year 1752, new
style, or the last part of 1751 lost its
January, February, and twenty-four
days of March, and they wero countod
as the first part of the year 1752, new
style, or the last part of 1751, oldstyle,
and so with any dates previous to
March 25th, if given in new style and
old style the year will diller.
Russia has not yet made tho chango,
and now, tho error is twelve days, so
that they in Russia celebrate Christmas
twelve days after the other European
ecu ntrieR. S. F. Post

There is nothing manly, my dear
boy in making light of women. For
your mother's sake, honor the sex.
Never us a lady's name in an im
proper place, or at any improper place,
or in mixed company. Never make
assertions about her that you think are
untrue, allusions that you feel she her
self would blush to hear. When you
meet with men who do not scruple to
make use of a woman's name in a reck
less and unprincipled manner, shun
them, for they are the worst members
of the community men lost to every
sense of honor, every feeling of human
ity. Many a good and worthy wo
man's character has been forever
broken and htr heart broken by a lie,
concocted by an unprincipled villain
but U'lieved by people of good princi
cles who are always too ready to be
lieve slander or condemn imprudence
and crime. The smallest thing derog
atory to a womans character will fly on
the wings of the wind, and magnify as
it circulates, until its weight crushes
the poor, unconscious victim. Remem
ber this if you are tempted to repeat
it or listen to a scandalous lie.
Referring to the statement in yester
day's Oregonian concerning the prola
blu formation of a new channel through
the middle Rands, Capt. Geo. Flavel of
Astoria said to a reporter of this paper
that a good channel for small deep
water vessels had existed for six months
or more. There was alout sixteen feet
at low water, and his pilots had towed
in several vessels through, notably - the
City of York. He thinks it prolable
that within a year, with proper scrap
ing, this will lie the best channel since
1841. The bar is less than 800 feet
wide, and on either side the depth of
water is from six to eight fathoms, ac
cording to soundings by his tugs.
Width of the channel is not less than
1,000 feet Should the channel deejien
as expected, it will give a better en
trance than the present, because tli. re
will be but one shoal to cross: now
there are two, the liar proper and the
cut-oft It will be safe to sail in with
favorable winds, because the liability

Revenue and protection aosdfuUljr '
exclude each other. They ha noth
ing in common except that they have
lieen combined by law. The? pecplo of
the United States submitted to taxa-'
tion, becauso they thought it nrnwry
for revenue, and the protectionists
seized the opportunity to load the truly
productive industries of the country
with heavy burdens which give the'
government not one cent of revenue.'
Any tax which acU protective
keeps imports ovt and they produce no'
rovenuo,v Hence, protection a4 reve-'
nue exclude each other. The torf then'
Mis on the people, but the revrnu all'
goes to the protected producer?
In 1877 the imports of eoppef were'
$20 in value and they paid $11.50 in'
duty. The tax was therefore 38 J per
cent ad valorem, and" was prohibitory,'
and the tax to thai amount paid by
the peoplo to the American copper'
miners, who have the richest and most'
accessible mines in the world, produced
not a cent of revenue. The imports of
copper manufactures were $80,000, and
tho revenue $30,000) or 37 J per cent
which shows that the tat was almost
prohibitory, but also that the tariff
was a dead loss to the copper and"
brass manufactures. K the copper
and brass manufactures could hold the
market with les protection than the'
raw material, the eoald hold it with-'
out any, if the raw material were free,
and the system only cripples' them trt
machinery and other supplies.'' If pro-'
tccted infants ever cpuie 6t age these
two ought to be considered near it
Rare We Revenue Tariff t
Every man in any degree familiar
with our present tariff and its opera
tion knows that it is weighted with'
anolamies at once absurd and fraudu
lent. Many articles upon the list are'
protected by prohibitive duties whiclV
take countless millions of dollars an
nually out of the prukets of Amerieaw'
consumers for tho sole benefit of favor-'
ed monopolies that do not employ, all'
told, a hundred workingiueil;
By way of example' rici is subject
at present to a duty of 85 per cent
Diamonds pay only 10 per dent Now,'
will anybody fell us how the country
would be ruined if the poor man's rice
pudding was reduced to half its pres-'
ent cost, and the rich man's brilliant
soltaire made somewhat dearer!
The duty on fine laces is only 35 per
cent; tho duty on the poor man's blan
ket is 100 per cunt; making it cost him'
just twice its market value for th -
sake of a few radical mill-owners in'
Rhode Island and Massachusetts who'
employ but a few hundred "hands,"

Noting the announcement that flie
Southern Pacific railroad' is making
preparations to carry wheat' front Cal-'

ter in the San Francisco Bulletin;
thinks wheat will ere long be' car
ried from San Francisco to New Of-'
leans or Galveston 2200 mileif for'
$4 38$ per ton, terminal charges $1.20
and thence by steamer to Liverpool for
$5 28, making 810.96$ per ton in alf.
The estimate by rail i protabfy fro'

high. But it itf certain' that the'Soutb
