CIIEAI' 1'UBTAGE ,
The innuguratiou of cheap postage on
Tuesday in the United Stites by time
opomtinn of limo now postal law , invites
attention to trio growth of time 1)ostflice
business 1m this country , and the history
of its establishment. For several years
after the first sottlomemite in Now Eug
laud and Virginia , mo stub an official a.s
the post master was known. Nine years
after the sottleaont of Boston , time general -
oral court appointed one moan to recoiw'o
all mho loLtos at his house , and to deliverer
or send thum to time parson to whoa they
were addressed , receiving one penny for
oaclm letter for his trouble. The first
mail , wlmich was n monthly ono , was
established bolwcet Now York nod Boston -
ton iii 1072 , and in 1083 11'illiam Penn
started im l'hiladolphia time first post.
oflico , which was time gernm of time
colonial system , It was Ifenjnniin Frank ,
lie who made time postoflico self-suslnimm-
ing and secured a rovemo of $15,000 the
year before the omlbreak of Limo rcvolu-
t ion ,
Ouo of time first acts of time Federal
govorimimtt after its organization im 1789
was to organize a postoflico systea. TIme
first law fixed time rata of post'mgo at 8
euuGi for less llmnm 10 miles ; 10 cants for
ices than 00 smiles ; 12 comts for less tlmti
160 utiles ; 17 cotta for under 300 miles ;
20 cells for less than 600 miles , and 25
cents for all distancus exceeding 600
mniies. Thorn were no envelopes , 'l'hu
letters wore required to ho written on
one piece of paper , or time rate was
was doubled. The postage could be paid
by time nemmder or receiver , but letters
were seldom Iprepnid. Time mails were
carried imi stage coaches or on horseback.
In 1810 the first change was nmdo im
this law and a new schedule of 9 cents
for 30 miles , 10 for 80,12 far 160 , 18
for 300 and 25 for 400 miles went into
operation amid existed until 1815. The
success of ltowland Hill's postage ro-
fornm inn Emgiand induced Congress in
1846 to nmako ammtlmor change. 'rho
schedule of 1815 fixed Limo rate of asingie
letter for any distance under 600 miles
at five seta , amid for any further dis
tance at ten cents. The vast oxtouahon
of territory in consequence of tim
acquisition of 'Texims , Ness Mexico and
California entailed adclitioal expense ,
amid it was feared , lint time postoflico do-
par tnont could nut ho nmado to pay its
oxpeisesnt that rate. In 1861 an effort
was nmdo to raise time rate , but it ro-
suited im a further reduction to 3 cents
for all distances under 3,000 miles , and
a cents for mere than 3,000 ; if Limo letter
was not prepaid time postngo.was ti coots.
It was mint until 1853 tlmt time systen of
a umiiform rate of 3 cents for the haalf
ounce letter , for all distances in Limo
United States , was adopted. Phis is , iii
fret , time Itowlaud hill system , which effected -
fected such a , ; 'tat amid bemieticemmt clangu

In 1872 mho free delivery syatcmn wits
inaugeaatod mid later time postal card was
introduced. Time last atop , a tnmiforut
2-cent letter rate , is now aceonplislwd.
What effect Limo reductiom of the postage -
ago will , have upon time revenues of time
dopartoient it is impossible as yet to
estimate. The probabilities are that
enough aclditiomal letters and sealed circulars -
culars will be sent to nearly make up for
time reduction in time rate. Between a

the difference is so slight that it is roasoo-

32,000 . m'I ' these figures arc ill
in favor of tine tlepublieams until we
come to tine fact that the Democrats car-
nod time Sato at time last election by

last year was 20,000 less , ham Foster received -
ceived four years ago , 68,000 less than
were cast for Garfield tltreo years ago ,
and only 4,000 more than Fester received
in 1881.
Seven hundred and tweimtyfivo thousand -
sand votes were cast in Ohio in 1881 , the
largest veto of the State. From 700,000
to 716,000 will be castthis year. This vote
will be cast , because , first , at is tleyear
before the Presidential canpaign , and
Ohio has not yet lost her keynote com-
cert ; second , time peculiar circuntstitmces

with nearly 300 candidates for seats tearing -
ing up time political sail , will be fruitful
of results in ballots ; fifth , the
onorgics of the campaign managers on
both sides are bent , not to creating
showy parades or mmitking mmuch noise at
Limo hustings , but to perfecting organization -
tion to get out the vote ; sixthmi and rather
moro unport'uit them any ether reason , is
the excitement over tine proposed liquor

it would not ho surprising if tine total

homo of bothm candidates , and one's pop ,
ttlarity will probably affect the other's.
'r'ime figures m the table , 0,600 , are rather
above than below time probability. llr nt-
ilton gave Foster 4,500 plurality in 1881 ,
and time next year jumped to time extreme
10,700 Denmocratic plurality , Timis

It would seeum hardly possible for the
Doom 'cents to capture the Legislature by
overconming suclm a preponderance. But
there arc twemntythueo mnembe s fromm time

Republicans , who are likely to be sump.
pbumted by democrats , time only doubtful
comity being Cuyahoga , with , eight nmeuo-
hers ,
.rime . Democrats arc certain to elect forty -
ty nine umumsnbers of the House without
Cuyahoga , witlm a chance for tom more inn
doubtful counties , and if they elect their
otlht candidates in Cuyalmogu will surely
control tine body. Of the thirty-three
nieumbera of tire Serrate time Deomiocrata
are grotty certainn to elect sixteen , with

'l'ime conclusion of time whnie matter is
thltt the Republicans will elect Foraker
10x1 time greater portion of the state ticket

that the Deutocrats will obtain control of
