GREAT EXCITEMENT AMONG THE WAR
DEPARTMENT Employees Washington
correspondent of the N. Y Tribune, says:
Great excitement was occasioned among
the War Department employees, yesterday,
by the promulgation of an order requiring
the discharge, with 80 days furlougb, from
the 18th inst, OF all General Service clerks
and others not authorized by law. The effect
of this order, ii carried out, ii is said, would
be virtual suspension of the business of the
Department, as it discharges nearly 600
clerks, seven'eighIhs of whom have served
in the army. One branch OF the Adiulant
Generals office employs 144 clerks. BY the
execution of the order this Bureau would
retain but Two clerks-not sufficient num-
ber to open the morning mail. The order,
Tor the most part, discharges the only friends
of the Administration in that Department,
leaving the old clerks who have secured
permanent appointments by service OF ten
years and upward, and dIscharging those
who really transact the business of the
office

TIE WeatAer-Nearly all day of Satur-
day last, heavy storm of rain, accom-
panied with very high wind from the
southeast, prevailed in this vicinity. A
slight fall Of snow occurred on Monday and
Tuesday.
ErhiJition.-C Considering the condition of
the weather on Saturday night last, the
entertainment of singing and reading, by
the children of Miss Reedy's school, in the
Mechanics Hall, was quite we'll attended,
and gave satisfaction.
Re,igious.-The extra services in the NJ.
+. Church here closed, for the present, Oh
Sunday night. They will probably be
resumed Oh watch-night. Some eight per-
sons united with the church on probation,
on Sunday.
Fay II. Purdy, the great revivalist, is to
visit this church some time during the
present winter, to assist the pastor for
few days A Feast of Tabernacles is
anticipated.
Surprise Visit-The members and friends
u Illc L. ShuIti, III liiio iV"h, oi 1885
Thursday evening, made descent upon
the Parsonage, and loaded the tables, and
crowded the rooms, with provisions and
other articles, to the utter astonishment
and unbounded delight of the Pastors
family. The supply consisted of poultry,
hams, pork, beef, lard, sausage, flour, corn,
vegetables, groceries, fruit, bread, cakes,
pies, butter, mincs-meat, confectionery,
preserves, fish, and glassware, together
with dead rabbit, stuffed with green
backs. The whole affair was under the
management of the Ladies' Mite Society
of the church, and reflected great credit
on their thoughtfulness and kindness.
Concert-We understand that Mr.. James
Crawford, tho leader of the NJ. E. Church
Choir, is making arrangements to give
popular concert, in the church, at an carly
day.
Tdcation.-Miss Lizzie Reedy has closed
her select school till the first week in Jan
uary next.
That Purenaent.-Our earnest desire for
the completion of the brick pavement on
the principal street of our village, is doomed
to disappointment for this Winter. No
doubt it will be consummated next Spring.

Letter from Zion.

ZION, Nd, Dec. %, 1869.
About year since, the undersigned took
the place of the popular merchant, Mr.
Jas. L. Carhart, not without some misgiv-
ings in regard to the success of the trade,
notwithstanding his long experience in
mercantile life. But under the blessing of
kind Providence, the business has cx
ceeded our expectations, and our health is
very greatly improved.
Business men have their particular views
and modes of conducting the same one
making leader of some particular article,
while another aims at uniformity in profits.
We think the latter the correct principle,
and leave an intelligent and enlightened
community to judge hew far it is carried
out, and to what extent they will sustain
it.
Our location has been made pleasant and
home-like, by the renewal of many old
friendships and the formations Of new ones
and we think it reasonable to hope that the
social and business relations shall continue
mutually pleasant and profitable.
For the liberal patronage thus far extend
ed, we tender our sincere thanks F.; ant
state that our facilities and advantages fol
doing business, being improved, we expec
to be able to do even better for our custo
mers, than we have done heretofore. N.
efforts will be spared to add to the alread!
high reputation of the store, so that all viii
be compelled to admit that it is one of thu
best and cheapest in the county
In conclusion We tender to all who ma.
read this letter, the compliments of thu
season, GA merry Christmas and a happ.
New Year -
Respectfully, yours, &C.,
STEPHEN B. FORD.

Ex-SECRETARY STANToN.-The nomina-
ton of ex-Secretary Stanton to be Associ-
ate Justice of the Supreme Court, was sent
to the Senate on Wednesday last. That
body, duly appeciating the character and
reputation Of the great statesman, paid
him the compliment Of confirming him
forthwith without referring his nomination
to any committee, and the only negative
votes were Messrs. Ross of Kansas, Fowler
of Tenne see, and nine Democratic Sena-
tors, one of the Democratic Sena' ors being
absent or not voting. The vote stood II,
all Democrats with the two exceptions
named.
The estimates for the expenses of the

The Committee on the Judiciary has
not yet reported to the Senate its action
upon the nomination of Attorney General

or on the Circuit Judges. A despatch from
the Washington Agent of the Associate

Butler and Bingham had another tilt

in which these Congressional warriors dealt
each other some heavy personal blows. 1t

one would have supposed, if they should
get within arms length of each other,
there would be rough and tumble fight.
But few minutes after Butler concluded
his speech he was at the desk of Bingham,
where these two Pickwickian gents engaged
in five minutes small talk, pleasant and
agreeable, apparently.
