Hon. c. G. Bowen received his par.
don on Saturday afternoon, through the
Marshal of the District, and was released
from Jail.
General Sherman leaves Washington
in day or two, to take his family to
Vermont to spend the summer. The gen.
eral will not himself be there much of the
time, since he will be obliged to travel
extensively in Connecticut on the duties
of his office.
1t is understood that the Ku-Klux
investigating committee will take recess
from about the goth of the present month
till September. Judge Poland has de-
mont at that time, and the other members
will undoubtedly agree to a recess unless
important business should arise to detain
them.
DR.. G. F. Macdonald, Superintend-
ent of the Postal Money Order System of
the United States, who is now in London
for the purpose of arranging money
order system between this country and
Great Britain, writes to the Post Office
Department that he is meeting with sue
cess and will probably conclude his bust
ness in few days when he will leave for
Berlin to make like arrangements with
the postal authorities of the German EN-
pire.

this fiscal year is technically no easy mat
ter. A double set of accounts will have
to be opened, and an increase of clerks

the law is to be strictly carried out
