The original of our yard measure and pound the British standards of weights and are scaled or walled up in the sides of the house of parliament of London. The cavity in the wall in which these precious standards arc preserved somewhat resembles a tomb, and can bo opened only by tearing away the wall. The two articies which are therein so safely eased are both of metal. The yard measure is of bronze, in the shape of a bar, thirty-eight inches in length, thirty-six sections, or one yard, having been marked oS upon it with some finely scaled instrument. The weight stuudard is a cube of platinum, weighing exactly sixteen ounces.

Weighty as it is, it is scarcely more than an inch in extent on either fcidc, and, if sold for the metal there is in it, would bring nearly two hundred dollars. Once every twenty years the walls inclosing these standards are torn nway for the purpose of removing tho two pieces pf metal and comparing their length and weight with the official standards in use by the bureau of weights and measures. These comparisons are made under the supervision of the president of the London board of trade, and several other officials appointed by the different branches of the queen's government. Extremely delicate and elaborate apparatus for making these comparisons are used, and if the units in use by the bureau referred to have been changed, or deviate in tho least from the standards with which they were compared twenty years before, they are immediately changed, so as to conform with the original bronze and platinum types. The ceremony of "comparing the standards" was last made iu April, 1892.

After the comparisocs had been made and no variations detected they were again walled up with the understanding that they would not again be disturbed until April, Louis Republic.

Con- RATES OF POSTAGE. Great Rcclnctlnni E.Tected During Recent The reduction in the rate of postage to cents has been gradual in the Dnited States.

The rates made May 1, 1310, were as. follows: Less than 30 miles, 0 cents; over 30 and not over S(J miles, 10 cents; over SO and not over 150 miles, 12X cents; over If.Oand over 400 miles, over 400, miles, 25 cents. These'rat-es continued'. until July 1, period of more than twenty-nine years when a sweeping 1 reduction was made to li. atid 10 cents, as follows: Under 300 miles, 5 cents; over 300 miles, 10 cents.

Drop local letters, 2 cents. It is remarkable that, this great reduction in postage only'caused a small falling off in revenue, and this for one year mainly. Here came the first provision noted for "drop 1 and the "single letter" was defined to be one an ounce. Previously one sheet of not over one ounce avoirdupois-was single, but two pieces of paper, however small, made double rate, three triple; and soon. This great reduction of rates in 1S45 was believed to bu largely; due to the persistent efforts of Lysander Spoooer, of lioston, to carry the mail iu opposition to the government, and at thr low rate of iivo cents, between Huston, Sew York.

Philadelphia and Baltimore. Mr. Spooner took the ground that the government no "constitutional right" to forbid the carrying of mails by private parties. Although this quH's'tiou is believed never to htivebeen legally decided; Mr. Spooner was driven out-of business, but forced theentering wedge for cheap postage.

It was not because cheap postage would benefit the people that it came, but because the government afraid of private competition. By the act of March 3, 1S51, the three- cent rato was established, not exceeding 3,000 miles if prepaid; but unpaid, five cents; any greater distance, double rates. l.iy the act of March, 1SG3, the rate for "domestic letters' 1 was fixed at three cents, anj distance if prepaid by btamps, and double rate if otherwise. March 3, 1SG3, "drop letters" were reduced to one cent per half ounce (made one ounce in 1SS5), prepaid, except that at free-delivery offices two cents was to be charged. The free-delivery system was established by act of March 3, 1S73.

Postage was reduced October 1, 1SS3, to two cents per half ounce, chiefly through the efforts of Congressman Bingham, of Philadelphia. This was increased to one ounce July 1, 1SS3. Postage stamps were first authorized March 3, 1S47, and stamped envelopes August 30, 18, i2. Postal cards were first issued May J. 1S73, with sales the first year of 01,000,000.

Postal notes were issued October 3, Golden Days. DISCOLORED LOBSTERS. The Itonult of PunlclnR Thnm Out of tho The cause of the discoloration of canned lobsters is being inquired into both in Canada and the United States, It is noted, that the increase in discolored tins has come about since nder- sizcd lobster packing has teen resorted to, and illegal packing in and August, as such discoloration was almost unknown a few years ago, when 7 mature lobsters were canned and put up in the proper season. Suggestions of possible onuses of the discoloration arc: (1) Packing; in close season when the weather is warm. (-) Bad and imperfect scaling by fishermen.

(3) Use of some, new chemical in sealing up, inferior tin bought by small packers. The investigations, however, do not warrant the acceptance of either or all of these as the explanation, but there is every evidence that the cause of mischief is in the meat itself, the contents of the tin. The true cause, doubtless, is chemical, and due to the condition of the lobster when living. Chemical tests have shown the presence of ammonia and sulphur in the blackened tins, and these chemical matters are precisely those richly present in undersized lobsters, soft-shelled lobsters and lobsters actually in breeding or pairing condition. Taking this view, to overcome the evil complained of it is necessary: (1) to prevent the capture of pairing lobsters in the fall.

(2) To prohibit soft- shelled lobsters, which are especially plentiful iu the fall, the females shedding immediately after their eggs are hatched, in order to be freed from the empty capsules and the masses of fibrous" thre'ails. (3) To prevent the capture of very small lobsters, five to eight or nine inches lonp flesh unusually rich soft-shelled in all months of the year, and September are the chief months for moltiog. Further, while berried lobsters require protection, the report says that lobsters in that condition are not likely to blacken the cans; is probably in prime condition. The annual loss owing to blackened cans is said to be half a million dollars. Gazette.
