Retrenchment in the Civil Service.

In compliance with Congressional
action, between six and seven hun
dred male and female employees
were discharged from the Govern
ment Departments in Washington
on the 1st day of July. The in
creased amount of business in all the
Departments, caused by the late pro-
tracted war, necessarily augmented
the clerical force to more than quad
ripple its former maximum and for
years after active war operations
had ceased there was very little
abatement in the amount of work
devolving upon and requiring
prompt attention in each division of
the Government. With the lapse Of
time, however, the amount of labor
required began to diminish, and for
some time past yearly reductions
have been made in the number of
clerks employed. The last session
Of Congress, in an earnest spirit of
economy and retrenchment, author
lied . thorough examination into
the operations Of each Department,
with d view TO further reductions in
the clerical force to the lowest num-
Der consistent with the actual neces-
stiles Of tho work, This resulted in
the removals indicated, nearly one
half Of the number being female en-
ployees in the Engraving and Print
ing and other divisions of the Treas
urv. Each of those discharged re-
ceived cash payment equal to two
months salary; yet the removal of
dependent widows, not o few of
them with children supported wholly
by tho monthly earnings of the
mother, will result in many cases,
it is feared, in painful solicitude and
actual distress. Il is hoped that the
heals Of Departments have di5erimi-
mated as much as possible in favor of
those cases, aud allowed the politi-
cal axe to fall only whore the blow
would be least felt. Male employees
Of industrious habits who have re-
ceived their discharge will find no
serious difficulty in turning their at
tention to other profitable employ
ments.

The New Postal Law-Its Probable
Effects
From the New York Post, July n.


We have already called attention to
the new postal law, and to the fact
that the amount of merchandise, sam
pies, ETC., which can be carried for
less than letter postage, has been in
creased from twelve ounces to four
pounds, and that the latter quantity
can now be carried for but thirty-two
cents. On inquiry at the Post Office
to day it was found that the new pro.
visions had not yet affected the bulk
of mail matter to an appreciate ex-
tent, but it was thought that a consd
cradle change would be perceptible
when the public became familiar with
the increased privileges.
Even under the old law, it was said,
the quantity of matter sent for less
than letter postage was much greater
than generally supposed. One firm
in this city, for instance, makes a
great quantity of uppers for patent
leather boots and sends them through
tho mail to shoe dealers in all parts of
the country, a pair of uppers just com
ing within the old limit as to weight.
Now, it is supposed, with the reduc-
ton in postage, this business will be
corresponingly increased as will that
of the large millinery establishments
which now fill small orders through
the mails for ribbons, laces, ETC., from
different parts of tho Union. There
is nothing now to hinder the latter
from sending dress patterns in the
same way, if customers are willing to
take the risk of loss in transit.
A dealer in musical Instruments Wis
tied the Post Office today to obtain
information in regard to the law, aud
became satisfied that he could forward
by mail at a cheap rate nearly all the
articles in his stock of goods.
1t has also been suggested that tea
dealers could do profitable business
by mailing packages of not more than
four pounds in weight to customers in
country towns, who would thereby |
obtain their tea at rate much less
than is usually charged by village |
while the city dealer |
would secure his usual price.
If the cost of postage were the only
hing to be considered, tailors might |
ind no obstacle in mailing whole suits |
Of clothes, but nothing can now be |
on which letter postage is
1ot paid, and the risk of loss, it is
'aid, will probably prevent the trans
mission of many valuable articles in
his manner. An experienced officer
n the Post Office to-day spoke of this
Is q defect in the law, saying that he
hought the fee of five cents for every
egistration would be sufficient to de-
ray the expenses of the increased
lerical labor.

BURNING CHICAGO
ANOTHER TERRIBLE FIRE +!
A Mile of Mansions Ablaze at

ENORMOUS LOSS OF PROPERTY AND

men are thus far futile to check its
progress. Buildings are being blown
up, and the whule force of the city
fire department is on the spot with
every me ans available for fighting
fire. This fire started this afternoon
at 4:30, on Fourth Avenue, near 18th
street. In South Chicago it ran north
and northeast through 4th avenue,
Sd avenue, State street, and two
blocks on Wabash avenue, and a
large number of houses on the east
err portion of the street. 1t took
the postoffice, several churches and
d large number of blocks. The num-
Der is not attainable at present.
The principal lines of the Western
Union Telegraph Company running
east, and running through the State
have all been burnt-some forty
wires; but as the lines on Canal st.
are out of all possible danger, there
will be no interruption of telegraphic
communication.
All the police force are on the
ground to prevent stealing. The
fremen are working like heroes. =

PREDATORY Prattie-2Oth Annual Commence
ment Bxercises-Ch0ice Entertainment-A
Great Multltude-W0Odland Scenes Maud
Muller the Second.

AMONG THE Moss Roses, July TO-,
1874.-When one is comfortably rusti-
eating among the pine, and the spring
chickens, and the bees, and the COM
cts, and the Maud MuIlers, and the
mosquitoes, one doesn't feel at all
like writing up commencement exer-
cies. | may say that under such
soothing circumstances one is posi-
lively inclined to "sGur on" COM
mencement exercises-to take coun'
sci with himself and pass resolutions
to the effect that commencement in
general are a nuisance. But-when
one is advertised to do q certain
thing, one must do certain thing,
you know, however much he may
feel like loafng and inviting his soul
in green pastures and beside the still
waters, his cup running over with
butter-milk, his hair full of chintz
bugs and hay seed Then it must be
admitted that st. Clara Commence
ment is a healthy exception to such
things in general, and the reporter
who wouldn't do it up under any cir
cumstances, can be safely set down
as little better than the wicked. 1t
is good, exceeding good, this:
Feel of grass beneath the foot;
To lie in buttercups and clover bloom,
TeRants in common with the bees,
And watch the white clouds drift thro' CULTS of trees.
but it is also good, exceeding good,
to hear music and singing and speak
ing. to look at several scores of I'M
commonly pretty girls in lump, to
Ito have on limp shirt collar and
to be out of breath.
Well, then, it was Thursday, July
9th, and great was the crowd and hot
was the day. The mound and all
the sylvan scenery adjacent wore a
holiday look, as if it had been wash
ed and shampooed up for this special
occasion, and was quite conscious OF
being Just about the handsomest
hunk of real estate anywhe ere in the
valley of the northern Mississippi.
Every body observed this, and i'm
parted the information as precious
secret to his neighbor. And that's
the only reason | have for saying
anything about it here.
The exercises began at the usual
hour and in the usual way. The
good taste of the Sisters was display
ed in the decorations and sdornments
of the stage, no less than in tho sim
pie and becoming robes of the pupils
Nothing was overdone, but golden
mean seemed to have been attained
in everything. From the entrance
march to the finale, the programme
was certainly as good as need be,
though some complained that it com
prised too much music altogether.
Now | hold that in this matter of
making up q programme she accom-
plished and discriminating Sisters of
St. Clara are the best judges possible.
aud I'd rather abide by their say so
on the subject than by that Of all the

Judge Davis Advises the People to
go Slow.

When the United States court had
announced its decision on the railroad
cases, on the 4th inst, Judge Davis
spoke as follows:
"In view of the decision just rend
cred, we trust it will not be considered
out of the line of our duty to make a
suggestion concerning this litigation,
to the counsel for the defendants.
1t is manifest that the questions in
volved are grave ones, and that the
courts of last resort will ultimately
have to pass on them. 1t is equally
manifest that a speedy decision, in
which all parties are vitality interested,
can not be obtained unless there is
harmony of action on the part of both
the compliments and defendants. In
the meantime, while this litigation is
in progress, would it not be better for
the defendants, as far as lies in their
power, to have prosecutions for penal
tiles suspended? These prosecutions
are not required to settle rights; They
are attended with great expense, and
if enforced while an effort is making
i'll good faith to test the validity of
this legislation must cause serious ir-
ritation, and cannot be, rs it seems to
us, productive of any good result

s-B The Canadians have become
alarmed at the discovery that FIVE
hundred thousand of their population
have left the Dominion for the United
States during the last quarter Of CEN
fury. Quebec figures it out that if
she could only induce her children to
return it would place her at the head
OF the confederacy. To that end lib
eral legislation has been recommended;
in other words, they are to be offered
free passes to Montreal, land grants,
and money to buy seed. Quebec will
have to offer something more substan-
tial than rocks and seeds. If she
wants to do respectable thing let
her offer tickets to Montreal and re-
turn. The union of the two countries
under one flag, and the consequent
flow Of enterprise and capital to the
colonies, (new States,) is the only
thing that win bring back the absent
population.
