It is pcuciMlly known thit the do
mestic Muuey Oidcr branch of the Post
oliico Department has heretofore been
conducted at a loss of upward of a hun
dred thousand dollars a year, and that
a new law increuinn the rates was
passed by Congress at its last iessiou, to
go iuto effect on the fiiit of July.
Fally ssven-eihw of the ur'Urf7 orders
u-susl are i.r sums under ten dollars,
which at present oust only five e-3uls,
while it costs the Guveruiueut tcvuu
cents aud a fraetiou toissuj un order
Uuder the new law the rates wiil he teu
cents for any sum up to filtera dollars;
over fifteen do'lars aud uc t txct-edin;;
thirty dollars, liftceu cents; over thirty
dolluis and not exu 'eding forty do'.lafti,
twetity cents: over fotty dollars u'-d not
exceeding fifty dollars, twenty-five cent.-,.
This increase of rates, it is estimated,
will iucreaic the revenu.s in about the
B ime ratio as it has heretofore deeiet?cd,
without inflicting hardship cu those
usin;; this biaueh ol tho service. Ar

was drowned yesterday at Lccytown,

that it is the custom to put extra meu
on a creek piece to help run it over the
dam, and the extra men jump off at I he
'round rock," a short distance below
and go back to help out other pieces
This was Hoy's position, ami in jump
ing cfi a piece yesterday, ho either mis
calculated the di.ilauce, or did not make
allofftiiiec for the rapid motion of the
rait; at uny rate ho jumped too far and
went over thc.rok into the water into a
sort of whirlpojl, formed by the water
tubbing ihrcugh tho cavities of the
locks. He came up three times, and
then went down and was sccu no more.
Up to the time we go to piess his body
has not beeu recovered. We under
stand that his mother and titicr, who
live at or near 'I ylereburg, were de
pendent upon him, and bis death will
prove a sad loss to them. He aa a
brother-in-law of Geo. Walters, one of
the firm for whom he was working, and
was about thirty years of age.

the trains on the Uuiin Pacific Bailroad
hits dually become bo high that travel is
entirely suspended between Laramie

Matistics from tho lumbering point
i f Manistee, Michigan, give the supply
Of logs and lumber at that port lor ( 4
lOiiilug season. The new cut of logs
amount to U3,C.O0,000 feet, aud adding
the stock leftover, tho supply of logs
and lumber for 1875 is about 185,001),
000 feet, against 215,000,000 feet las!
spring. Of the new cut, 25,000,001)
feet of logs, mid prehaps more are ol
too giod quality to bo sawed into di
mension stuff, havi'ig been cut high liv
in the stream where the forests ltd
nt been denuded of their best trees.
This statement is important, inasmuch
s it shows that Mituistee, which is by
far tho large-t manufacturing point oi
dimension stuff on the kke, w ill have a
much smaller supply cf this slass vt
lumber than usual; and the inference is
drawu by dealers that joists, scanning,
and like qualities, will bring higher
prices this season than iu the recent
past, iu consequence of this shortage.
Washington, April 15. The Presi

the redemption agency of the Treasury
ind rijecltl, but instead ot buiug
signed by the President of the bank, as
that gentleman supposed, Loth of ihe
signatures are fictitious. The names of
me officers of the baok are George N.
Jones, Cashier, and George Kipley,
President. The names upon the stolen
notes are P. J. Smith, Cashier end E.
A. Bates, President. It is supposed
that the thieves signed these notes with
fictitous tames for the purpose of avoid
ing the penalties of lorgery.
