On tho 5th of next April there will ba a total eclipse of the sun. This information contains nothing remarkable. An eclipse in no novelty in itself, and the date of its occurrence may be learned from an almanac. But something out of the com- ' thing to remedy the imposition. In addition to the above changet the franking system was partially restored.

An amendment was smuggled through tho late Congress doubling the rate on the above named articles. This was done in tho interest of certain Express Companies and its effects on newspapers was not thoroughly understood by many of the Members or it would not havo have been passed. Tha Postmaster General knew nothing of this scheme But ho had heard that just at the close of Congress it had been slipped in by the fifth committee of Conference, aud it was possible it had passed. Yesterday Mr. Cannon received word that this infamous trick had been successful, and the amendment had passed, with, the bill, without being understood by tho hurried members. How much good this will bring to the persons who intrigued to effect it, remains to bo seen. But we do not think there will be much fretting oyer it by the mtn who servo this Territory as legislators; they labor not for money, but for the people's good. The dirty trick of the political tricksters who smuggled it through is, however, nono the less reprehcusible. 1, vwu. !.,, A thi. v. - To-da- v 1 extra-judici- .....
