MailH to CHimi ?nul Jupuii.
The only responso t?> ihc cull i>f tito Postmaster
Oonoral for mail service between Sim Francisco
nn?l China: Sandwich vfa Islands, authorized by
Act approved February 17, 1865, came from the
Pacific Mail Steamship Company, ami was accept
ed by the Department. The compensation there
for Is #500,000 por annum ft? tlio perfornianco of
twelve round trips between San Francisco und
Hong Kong (China), touching at Honolulu, in the
Sandwich Islands, und Kanagawa, in Japan. Tlio
company uro to build for the service four first
cliiHH American eiilc-wheol steamships; of from
8800 to lono tiins burdens oaeb, Government mea
surement, to be constructed of the best materials
nnd after the moat approved modo), with all the
modern improvements adapte?! to sea-going
steamships of the first class. The first steamer
to leave San Francisco with the mails for Japan
and China on or before the first of January, 181J7,
and the term of contract to bo ten years from date
ot sailing of first steamer from the port.
This is one of the most important events of the
day, and inaugurates a new era in the commerce
of our country. With this line of steamships regu
larly established, and the completion of the Pa
cific railway, which will now become an absolute
necessity, we become the masters of commerce,
and Now York becomes tlio great commercial em
porium of the world. Foreseeing these results as
accruing from the establishment of such n line of
steamships as was contracted for to-day, Postmas
ter-General Dominion, in his report to Congress"
last winter, suggested its importance, and an act
was thereupon patted authorizing the Postmaster
General to contract for the mail service above set
forth. Remarking upon this groat enterprise, the
Postmaster-General says:
"There are other ocean routes besides the one to
lirnzil, which can be safely and profitably occupied
by American lineB of mail steamers; among which
the route between San Francisco, Japan and Chi
fla, at present, unoccupied by foreign mail packets.
is, perhaps, the most important in a commercial
point of viow, and may bo made available in secu
ring to us a largo participation in the commerce of
the East, the greater portion of which is now en
joyed by Great Britain through her mail BtoamBliip
connections via Suez in tho Indian Ocean and
China Seas. The central position of the United
States between Eastern Asia and Western Europe,
affording routes but little longer, if any, than
those now traversed between these distant regions,
aided by the superior expedition of railway trans
portation between tho Atlantic and Pacific coasts,
will furnish euch facilities as will make their adop
tion a practical necessity for the commercial inter
' course between Europe and the populous countries
of Eastern Asia.
"These considerations, and others which will
readily suggest themselves, render it important
that the Pacific routes, properly belonging to us,
should bo occupied by American mail steunuirs,
the profit? of which, with the addition of a small
subsidy for the mail service, would justify the es
tablishment of one or more steamship lines which
would be remunerative to tho proprietors."

Mr. H. T. Helmboxd?Dear .Sir: In regard to
the question asked me aH to my opinion about
Jittchu, I would say that I have used and sold the
article in various forma for tho past thirty years.
I do not think there is any form or preparation of
, it I have not used or known to bo used, in the va
rious tlisea ses wlierc mich medicate agent would
be indicated. You arc aware, as well as myself,
that it lias been extensively employed in the vari
ous diseases of the bladder ami kidneys, und the
reputation it has acquired in my judgment is war
ranted by the facts.
I Lav?; scon and used, as befttro stated, every
form of Jiuchu?the powdered leave?, the simple
decoction, tincture, finid extracts,?ami I am n?ii
cognizant of anypreparation of that plant al all
equal t?iyours. Twelve years' experience ought, I
think, to giro me the right to judjjo of its merits,
an?l without pr?judice or partiality I give yours
precedence over all others. 1 do not value a thing
according to its bulk; if I did other liitrluts would
out-do yours; but 1 hold to the doctrine that bulk
and quantity do not make up value? if thoy did a
copper cent would bo worth more than a gold dol
lar.
I value your 13u?;ku for its effect on patients. I
have cured with it, and eecn cured with it, more
diseases of the bladder and kidneys than I have
ever Hccn cured with any other Ihichu, or any
other-proprietary compound of whatever name.
Respectfully yours, &C,

Sr.iuous Stabiiixo Afftiay in Mobile.?Yester
day morning, in the office of tho Battlo House,
Mobile, Colonel Charles Forsyth, son of the Mayor
of Mobile, stabbed and cut Signor De Veyga, for
merly of General Maury's staff. The assault oc
curred in this wise : Forsyth accused De Veyga of
?educing his (Forsytes) wife, whereupon De
Veyga slapped Forsyth in the face, when Forsyth
stabbed ami eut De Veyga so scveroly that he is
not expected to recover. Mr. Do Veyga is a native
and citizen of Havana. He served for some tim?\
however, on the staff of Major-General Maury
while that officer waB in command of Mobile. He
bad just returned from Havana.?Mobile News.
The New York Post, in referring to the Greeley
Weed controversy, is not delicate in its compari
sons. It says, "two Btout and frowzy viragos
abusing each other in the street, do not make a
delectable (jight for respectable men or women;
indeed, tho spectaclo it; one to make a decent man
. binsh that he belongs to the same species with
them. Yet the flaming eyes, the nasty words, the
1 matted locks and ragged clothing, tlio whole as
nt of rage and fury nave a charm for the more
ital part of mankind, who cry on the combat
' ants, and are tlio Inore delighted the fiercer their
Tage and the more damaging their brows. "The
sutlers and camp-followers of Grant's army might
as well claim to nave led it. as these fellows claim
. to have led the nation. Thoy marched witli it?
that is true?but thev often grumbled at the Gen
eral, and their chief occupation was to pick up the
crumbs that were dropped by the fighting men.''

Mr. Charles W. Mixon, of Menton, Chowan County, N. C, writes to Mr. Bockovcr:
In regard to Mapes' Phosphate it worked admirably for me, the product being fully equal if not siinerior to

seemed to retain its color and pods much better, and no symptom of rust was ever seen where it was aonliVd?all
