The Virginia (Nev.) Unterpri.se says: ' ' Some printers of tliis city are contemplating the fitting up of a small printing office wliich can be moved from place to place on whecls, as are the traveling photograph galleries. They intend making their start in California, and will travel throngh the small towns where there are no papers published and no printing offices. Once they are anchored in a towrj, they will send thoir ' devil ' flying about the place with all the latest news of the neighborhood and the advertisements of the business men. They will print Cfirds, bill-heads, circulara, and all else required, and when they have supplied the wants of a town in the printing line they will give some ranchman or livery-stable keeper il big' puff and an acrostio on the name of his favorite daughter to hitch to fcheir office and to haul them to the next town, where the devil wili again be set flying about, and where the ' bugle blast of freedom' will again be heard. Thus they will go from town to town, remaining from a week to a month or two in a place, making money and friends wherever they go, and having a jolly good time at all the balls, parties, weddings and funeral s. Their little paper wili be called the Postal Card." _ _____
