The Australian Mail.

Tbe San Francisco " Chrouicle" says

Robert J. Cieightou goes East by the oveiland trata to-day as Commissioner from New Zealand to negotiate wiik the United States Postal Department and tbe Pacific Mail Company for a quicker postal .ervice between the Australian colonies and England, via San Francisco. The Board of Trade of Sua Francisco and the Legislature of California havo joiotly re ported in favour of this service; and when it is stated that the letters originating in tbis country during ihe last three montbs of 1882—a low average—and carried by the Australian mail steamers free of cost, num ber 47,584, while 124,752 newspapers and periodicals weie despatched by the samj set vice, its commercial importance will be understood. The contract will expire in November next, und as New South Wales is lukewarm in tt.e matter, the continuance of tbe service depends upon New Zealand, ihe United States Postal Department charges neatly $103,000 a year railroad freights for the inclos d British and Aus tralian mail crossing the continent, and has its own mail carried over 7,000 miles back and forward by the colonits for noth ing, besides leaving tbe overland transit en tirely at the discretion of the railroads. On a lecent occasion the PeonsylvaaioJ' entral switched oil" the Australian mail car ai Hittsburg aud detained the steamer at San Francisco tvrenty»four hours. There is no redress for this ueglcct, although the Go vernment charges height, but, uultss the ser vice be eilieiently peifotmed in future tbe colonies will uot pay §475.000 dollars a yeai for the mere sake of (ending thi ir mail and p isseuger travel across thiß continenr. As it now stands, pussc uyns from San Francisco can re»ch New York about twelve hours in advance of the regular mail train. This is a discrimination, against the business of the coast which is of very serious iii port. sThe "colonies insist upon rapid transit and v reasonable contribution towards the ocean service by the United Stites as a conditiou of its continuance. For pottal purpose?,|the eastern route, via Suez, is rnoie advantageous to tbe Aus tralian colonies. It will therefore be seen that Mr' Creigbtou's mission is of great im pottance to this coast.

Changes in the Book of Common Prayer.

NiW York, April 7.—The committee on the enrichment of the Book of Common Prayer, appointed by the General Conven lionof tbe Protestaut npis'copal Church in this city during October, 1880, has been In session at Gr.oe Hou-e since Wednesday, and has at last completed its deliberations. The committee consisted of seven bishops, seven priests and seven laymen, and meet ings have been held at various times and places during the last three years. The committee made 'various alterations in the liturgy of the church to comply With the re quirements of tbe present geneiation, and the advancement of the Work and needs of the church. < For the past'few years many changes in the liturgy have been suggested at various conventions, but1 none'_ were adopted, and ut the' list convention' a vigoioiis effort-was made to have the liturgy altered in one particular,: and to allow the priests tb use prayers not id the prayer books to suit special occasions. But. both plans were defeated. The present commit tee was appointed to make such changes iv the liturgy as will remove the objections'to the present one, which were becoming almost universal. The deliberati _s of the committee are kept a profound secret, aud Will not be divulged' to' the public' until Bishop Williams, of Cincinnati, chairman, sees fit to make a public statement of the proposed changes. ~ ', 'A

The prisoners were kept i-eparate, and the officers succeeded in making two of them think that the third had confessed, which was the fact, and thrre was' sufficient ground to lead everybody to*believe, beyond doubt, that the right men had been arrested.
