About four months ago we had semi-offcial
information from Washington that the apprO-
priations for deficiencies which Congress
would be asked to make at the present session
would be greatly in excess of those for any
previous year since the beginning of Presi-
dent Grants Administration. This assurance
we are now willing to believe, and we should
have no difficulty in believing it if the state
ment had read "since the beginning of
" President Washingtons Administration"
We have taken the pains to foot up the totals
OF the several official monthly statements
OF the payments from the Treasury by war
rants" since the commencement of the cur
rent fiscal year. We find the grand total to
be no less than s120,9lOilO 81 for the seven
months, and very grand total it is. The
same rate for the whole year would give an
aggregate of S206.075,0O4 exclusive of all nav.
ments for interest on the Public Debt. The
grand total for the seven months is made nm
of the following monthly aggregates:

Thus far the British election returns show
Se Conservative gains. AS the vote now
stands, after more than two-thirds of the total
number of members have been elected, the
Conservatives have majority of 30. This
may possibly be reduced by returns yet to be
received from Scotland and Ireland; but the
fact of Mr.. Gladstone's defeat will still re-
main. The Premier seems TO have but one

was current in London this morning that he
has adopted this course is unfounded, 1t prob
ably only precedes the actual event by few

The House having failed TO get from Mr.
Watts, the Commissioner of Agriculture, Mr..
Marshs paper on irrigation. the Senate yester-
day began to exercise its powers of persuasion
on the old gentleman. Mr.. Morrill, of Yer
mont introduced resolution calling for the
document in the name of the Senate, which
was passed. Should this be refused, it is in
4imated that Congress will refuse an appropr-
alton for the Agricultural Department. If it
comes 70 that, members of Congress and Cab

The Senate Guardianship OF the District
Investigating Committee goes begging. MI
Ffelinghuysen had too much to do, MIR. COnk-
hing was too much occupied. and Mr.. Morton
was too busy with other matters to attend 10
it: and Yesterday, Mr.. Morrill, of Maine, who
was the last appointed, respectfully declined
having anything to do with 1T. Whereupoh
Mr.. Sherman, who promised last Fall that an
investigation should be had before Shepherd
sbould be confirmed as Governor, moved to
reconsider the concurrent vote raising the
Committee, which motion is now pending.
Would it be unkind to say that this treatment
of the subject has very suspicious appearance
Now that the Hoosac Tunnel is about COM
pleted, the interesting question arises IN the

seems the Troy and Greenfield Railroad Com
pany has a right of redemption under which
it is not certain whether it may not pay the
100000 it borrowed of the State originally
and take the tunnel upon which the State has
expended $10,OO0,0O0 or $12.OOO,OO. ZINE
letter of our Boston correspondent on the
third page gives the facts in the case. Besides
this question there are the problems of pro-
hibition and the relations Of labor and capital
the taxing of church property, the rights OF
street railway companies, and the functions OIL
the State Railroad Directors, which the heavy
wise men of Massachusetts, are putting their
intellectual weight on with great energy. The
feeling in favor of resembling the resolutions
unanimous.
