•"•Subscribers failing to receive their papers promptly will please report the same to the NEWS office, by Message Box, postal card, or otherwise. Until our routes are thoroughly organized, some failures may be expected, but we hope to soon have our delivery perfect.

Mituati«in» Hunted and Help Wanted. The DAILY NEWS will print advertisements of persons wanting work or situations, and of those needing help of any kind, without charge—such advertisements not to exceed 80 words. This is proposed because it is l»elieved it will aid many who need and desire work, and we cordially invite all interested to avail themselves of the means offered. It must be remembered that letters through the mail are not delivered to initial* only. If initials are used, the letter should be directed tc the care of some individual, firm, or postoftlce box, and If for city delivery, the postage is two cents. The DAILY NEWS has boxes at the oftice for the reception of letters addressed to its care, ant! such letters will be delivered only to the advertiser holding a check for the box number.

A NEW IDEA.

The Daily News Call Boxes and Messengers. To facilitate the collection of city news, as well as to place advertising patrons in close connection with the office, the publishers have placed Call Boxes at different points throughout the city, each of which will be visited several times during the day, from 7 o'clock A till 2:00 by the Messenger Boys of the DAILY NEWS. These Boxes have been put up for the purpose of affording a place of deposit for information of local news, and we cordially invite any person who has knowledge of any matter of public interest, happening in his or her vicinity to write out the facts and drop it in one of our Boxes. Attached to each Box will be found tablets of paper. Bign your name to your communication, for the knowledge of the editor only, as a guarantee of good faith on your part. Hrf inrixt on this items not signed by. a known responsible name are of the value of waste paper, and will be treated accordingly. The advertising patrons of the DAILY NEWS will also find these Boxes a convenience, as they can drop their favors therein, and thereby save walk to the office.

Communications, orders for the DAILY NEWS by carrier or mail, advertising copy, or information of any kind intended to reach the office, can be handed to the DAILY NEWS Messenger Boys, as they pass to and fro through the streets. They will be known by their blue caps with DAILY NEWS in white letters on the front, and Message Pouches of light-colorcd leather. The names of our Messenger Boys are: GEOUOK M. KKS and WILLIAM I. POWER. They are, while on duty for the DAILY NEWS, and wearing the badge of the paper, its accredited representatives, and we trust they will, in their business relations, merit the commendation of our patrons, as well as ourselves, for attention to their duties.

The EVENING NEWS got a big scoop on the Gazette, on Wednesday. It contained the full proceedings of the Crawfordsville convention, while the Gazette didn't have a word. This is a clear "git away" with the Gazette, because it enjoys all the press dispatch facilities, while the NEWS has to pay commercial rates for its special dispatches.—Courier.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 27 —Senator Randolph called up the Fitz John Porter case to-aav. He deplored the attenpt to make the discussion a partisan one, and said it would not succeed, as he had assurance lrom a number of Republicans that they would support his bill. He spoke in high terms of the honor and fairness of Generals Scofield, Terry and Getty, and said the latter had written him that he felt like asking General Porter's pardon for believing for seventeen years that he had been a traitor to his countrj'.

Indianapolis Journal, 28th: H. W. Hibbard, general freight agent of the Vandalia road, is to be in the city to-day on special business. The officers of this road claim that they have to a great measure been lookers on in the suicidal cutting business westward, and if the present mode of doing West-bound business is to be carried on this company now proposes to take a hand. That some of the roads running West from Indianapolis have been cutting deeply on the published passenger and freight tariff is susceptible of proof, and present indications are that considerable difficulty will be experienced in toning rates up again. —A day or two ago Mr Thomas Milliner sold some grain at Scotland, a small town in Edgar county, Bis., and therefor drew $205 and returned to his home in the country. About 9 o'clock at night two masked men, who had doubtless been advised of the money Mr M. had received that day, entered his residence, and demanded the money of Mrs Milliner. She was frightened, and told the men that her husband had gone to McKee's, who is a neighbor. After searching the house and finding no money, the desperadoes departed for McKee's, and near the gate they were met by John McClure, who had started home. Supposing him to be Milliner, they attacked him, and as he got away from them, they shot him, but not fatally. After this they laid hold of Milliner. McKee came outside the door, and the ruffians drove him back with pointed revolvers, and secured the money from Milliner and fled. The detectives are on a trail that promises a, speedy capture of the robbers.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 27.—The unemployed held another meeting at the Sand Lot this afternoon, and were addressed by Mayor Kallocli, who ttld them that, while their grievances are real, and iheir talk, for the most part, sensible,. yet the continuation of such gatherings only afforded an opportunity for the utterance of illtimed expressions likely to retard rather than advance the object in view that a judicious committee would be appointed, with whom he would freely confer, and to whom he would report the progress, if any, made in the way of relief. In the meantime, the meetings had better be discontinued, subject to the call of the committee. This was satisfactory, and wo more meetings will be held for the present.

To-day the seat of war has been removed from this city to the Assembly Chamber at Sacramento, where it assumes a serio-comic aspect.

This was referred to a special committee, who, after hearing evidence, decided to report that Kearney had been guilty of an attempt to intimidate Adams.

Besides this, there was a very lively passage ill the Assembly, to-day. over another matter. A few days ago Maybell, Workingmen's member of the Assembly, from San Francisco, telegraphed to Kearney: "We hear you are erecting a gallows 011 the Sand Lot. There is more need of erecting a gallows in Sacramento come up immediately bring some hemp." The telegram found its way into the Senate Chamber to-day. A resolution was introduced to inquire into the matter, in the course of which a very lively discussion ensued, during which Braunhart. Workingman, from San Francisco, fiatly refused to obey the order of the Speaker and sit down, and was brought to the bitr of the House and suspended for three days. Subsequently, when the Kearney question came up. firaunhart appeared oh the floor and demanded the right to vote, and the Speaker ordered him removed us an intruder.
