The ABusEp WoMAN.-People Who'll speak
disparagingly OF mothersin-law do not always
speak the truth. They are invaluable at this
season Of the year. BY a little planning they
can DO made TO arrive Just when the stoves are
to be moved, the carpets shaken, the pantry
cleaned and the halls scrubbed, and by little
more planning they can be made to put
shouider 10 the wheel. There are great many
domestic scenes worthy of the artists brush,
but nothing looks 30 pleasant and home-like
in the month of June to man coming up the
fiower-burdened path as the sight OF his mother
in-law carrying out stove or gracefully orna-
menting the ceiling with whitewash brush.
AS he looks upon the scene his heart grows lar
ger, mist Gomez before his eyes, and ne feels
as il he could whip a ten-acre lot full OF those
fellows who sniff at the old lady.-Exchange.

THE proposition to tax church property is
becoming an important theme for consideration.
The Constitutional Convention of Ohio proposes
no longer to exempt church property from bear
ing its share of public burdens. About one
tenth Of the church property IN the United
States is in that State. the total amount in 1870
being over 1854, 100000.

SECRETARY BELKNAP,s CIRCULAR.


The circular Of the Secretary Of War to the
heads VI bureaus in his Department. which
will be found In another column, is another
OF those practical measures In the direction
OF reform which have characterized the ad.
miulstration Of that Department during the
last three or four years. II Is an excellent
beginning for the new administration, and
will, we are certain, be commended by the
people without distinction Of party. The Sec
rotary calls attention to the fact that 1t Is a
positive Violation Of law to expend money In
excess Of that appropriated for any purpose
whatever, and that no Que eau legally bind
the Government for the performance Of any
contract or expenditure not contemplated by
tho acts Of Congress.
The evil complained Of by the Secretary Is
about as old as the Government itself. Pre-
vious to 1869 II very seldom happened
that Government officials having control over
the expenditures Of money have confined
themselves Within the limits prescribed In the
appropriations. During tho last administra-
tion, however, nearly oil the Departments Of
the Government have, at the end OF every
fiscal year, turned into tho Treasury large
Gums Of money, which, owing TO careful and
prudent management, had not been expended.
The War Department itself has, II We are
not mistaken, more than once distinguished
itself in this respect during the last four
years. There are, Of course, occasions
when tho interests Of the Government de-
mand IN extra expenditure, and when head
OF bureaus arc compelled to exceed the ap-
propriatlOns nj their dispotal. But, as a
general rule CYigcnCicg Of this rharactcr are
IN these days Of peace, extremely rare. Sec
retary Belknap Is evidently determined that,
II he can help II, there shall be no deficiency
bills next December from his Department.
In this respect be has set an example 10
Government officials generally which they
will do well u initiate.

Philadelphia has ., 600 manufacturers and work
shops, IN which are employed ", ,ii2 jOuneymen
and only $500 apprentices, and OF these latter
perhaps not more than one In twenty regularly
lndenturcd. Al the same time II Is stated that
there are about 5000 boys and youths, between
the ages OF ID and 81, In the city, who are with
out useful employment.
This Is startling statement. II challenges
the special attention Of every man interested In
the future Of the rising generation, aud In the
prosperity Of the SKILLED professions OF our
country. As has been stated on number OF
occasions, the large majority OF our skilled work
men are from foreign countries.
II Is safe to assert that not more than one In
I'VE Of the regular jOumeymen employed In
American workshops and factories are OF Amen-
can birth, and under the present system the dis
parity must daily become greater aud greater,

tCmcULAH.l WAR DKRARINNsT,
wAsnISdTos CIIY, March II, isiai
The Secretary Of War has observed with
much dissatisfaction the large amounts asked
for deficiencies during tho last session Of
Congress by seyeral Of the bureaus Of the
War Department.
When Congress gives the annual appropri-
ations for the Department, 1t Is the obvious
intent Of that body, expressly declared IN the
seventh section OF tho act Of July l2, 1870,
that no more money than that appropriated
shall be spent, or that the Government shall
be involved IN any contract for the future
payment Of money In excess Of such appro-
priations." II is therefore O palpable viO-
latlon of that law when any head Of bureau
does involve the Government in the manner
tpeclhed In that law. Every head OF bureau
shall take care to 70 distribute and economise
tho appropriations intrusted 10 his charge
that the Government shall not be so Involved.
Tho expenditures must be kept within the
appropriations,
