Following is a synopsis of circular sent out by the sujierintendent of the Dead letter Ollice under date of Septem ber 1st, lS'.H): Over six million pieces of mail matter are sent annually to the Dead Letter Otlico by reason of incoriect, illegible, or deficient address, insufficient postage, insecure inclosing, whereby matter mailed becomes separated from the en vcloaj or wrapper, or the failure to be railed for or delivered to the person ad diossed. This ia a daily average of over twenty thousand pieces. Of these tho greater portion are not culled for at the pct ollice to which they are directed, or in case of free delivery offices, the addressees cannot be found, notwithstanding ever known means is resorted to on the part of the postal otli ciula to oiled delivery. Mutter sent to the Dead Letter ollice, which cannot be delivered to the person addressed, is required to be opened in its treatment tor the purpose ol return to the sender, and if the name and address of the sender be not shown or cannot be ascertained from the contents, and it contains no valuable inclosure, it must be destroyed, letters opened and found to contain any inclosure of obvious value are en tered upon proper records, anu oi sucp, those which do not disclose sutlioient in formation to enable them to be returned are tiled, subjoct to reclamation upon proian application and ldenliucatiou. Lettors which contain no inclosure of obvious value are not recorded. l'ackagos and parcels are recorded, and where they do not disclose the name and address of the owner are tiled ; i not culled lor or claimed within two years they are disposed of at public auc tion and the proceeds converted into the Unietd States Treasury.

The new comer will ask why were not these boundless facilities not earlier mil. ized? It was because of spume popul. tlon In the country, and the proia-rty was principally owned by parlies in New York, who came in poaaeaaion ,y chunot and did not realise the immense value of the proM!rtics in the luture. Vt itli commendable enterprise and the good of his adopted home ut heart Mr. E. L. Easthan, with a syndicate of lo cal capitalists secured control of ull the properties on both sides of the river thus maiding them to offer capilalisti who desired to build uuuiuhictories and mills, the most liberal inducements They secured complete control of the ba sin, lea ks, etc., on laah ciilea of the river, ami through their liberal noliev extensive factories and mills have been erected. The inducements this company ollercd, taking into consideration the nutiirul commercial advantages, could uui. ise iinpiicateii anyw Here, To all inanufuctors they give free water power for ten yeurs, and after that oxuet a reasonable rental to laj de termined by impartial arbitration; also to give the land necessary at a nom inal yearly rental, practically without limit as to time. As the most desirable sites for fuctorieis were on the solid rock foundation between the river and canal the cost of development of power was small. As a result there are now five large and a number of small manufac tories either completed or under way. One great advantage of the great Will amette Falls over all other wuter powers of the country is tbat ice never interferes with the water wheels as in the East, and the cheapest water power in the world can be used continuously through all the seasons of the year. Another point in its favor is the nearness lo the ocean and Portland, where llie largest vessels of tho world anchor.
