Twelve or fifteen more clerks Of the Pen

at the beginning Of the fiscal year were rem
dered Imperative by lack of appropriation
for the support Of the office, and were male
only after careful and thorough investing
ton into the comparative dtness-physical,
moral and meutal-Of the clerks. The fifty
employees having the lowest average were of
course selected for discharge, and it Will be
readily understood that in the last discharge
the unfortunate clerks were displaced to Sc
cure vacancies for the same number of per

efficient in the bureau. No argument is ne

accomplished by the late civil service board
for their best efforts were continually
thwarted by politicians, and competitive
examinations were I'm many cases a mere
farce, having no weight in the appointment
or promotion of employees. but a change that
will secure greater efficiency in the service
and place good clerks beyond the reach of
politicians. II members Of Congress would
follow the example OF Judge Kelley aa1 pos
itively refuse To hunt offices for their con-
stituents the civil service would be vastly

The French Assembly and the British
Parliament have given their official sane
ton to the scheme to tunnel the English
channel. The fact that the promoters OF the
project ask no aid from either the French or
British government will appear almost in
applicable 10 Americans since IL has become
customary for the directors of almost every
enterprise in this country requiring Con-
gresSional authorization to put in a modest
request for a subsidy in the shape of money,
lands, or some other valuable consideration.
on the plea that the contamination of their
schemes will promote the interests of the
public. The originatOrs OF the plan to tunnel
the channel are Frenchmen of wealth, said
to be backed by the French Northern Rail
way company, while a cooperating society
has been organized in England. Dover and
Calais Will probably be selected as the term
inal points, as the distance between them is
only twenty miles. The movers in the en-
terprlse have pledged themselves to spend
100000 francs iii preliminary tests on the
English and French coasts. IT. as is gener-
ally believed, a deep stratum Of chalk forms
the bed of the channel between the points
named the plan OF a tunnel is thought feast
bic, and should the existence of this stratum
be couclUSively demonstrated there ought 10
lie no great difficulty in securing enough cap
ital on 10th sides Of the channel TO complete
the submarine railway. AS yet 10 one has
attempted To give anything like an estimate
of the cost OF carrying out such a stupe ndous
undertaking.

Orange Judd, of the american Agrictlftuis,,
In letter TO the New York T'iJuHe. says he
has spent $500, 600 in advertising. and is well
satisfied with the result. His first expert
ment in advertising, which cost him s2t.5o.
resulted in his receiving 226 subscribers on
the day the advertisement appeared, and
more came in within the next few days. He
says his experience taught him that if he
wanted 10 move crowd with a big rock. he
would hurl 1t at them, and not throw ii out
in bits Of pebble or sand. From that day to
this me has never been afraid to advertise
largely and bOldly-the only limit being the
time he could devote to preparing good,
truthful advertisements and TO selecting me-
diums-the latter a work of no little diff
fculty. His success in business, he says,
has been abundaDtly satisfactory to him
self and. he trusts, to his patrons also.

The impression which prevails TO some ex-
tent that the assessed value OF taxable prop.
erty IN this District, according To the recent
assessment, will not exceed S-5,GOoOl0 is
doubtless based on statements male bv the
Washington correspondents OF New York
anu other papers inimical 10 the recent and
present District governments. Tue clerks in
the Office OF the Superintendent OF Assess
ments and Taxes have been closely engage,,
since the close of the late assessment in
making up new set of numerical books.
and until that work is completed il is I'M
possible 70 say what the assessed value OF
property here will be. The impress ion OF
those who have the best opportunities OF
judging, is that the footing up will reach
$500 900 or so ,Oo0,OJ. The rate OF tax, i,
will be remembered, is one and half per
cent.

That is rather a good joke on the Indian
captiyes in Florida, the refusal of their
wives TO join them. The big chiefs who
are in limbo for indulging in the diversion
ofmurdering-the whites made piteous ap.
peal for their duSky mates and little ones.
and the army officer in charge indOrsed their
request favorably. Gen. Sheridan, in for
warding the request, said the talk of the
Chiefs about their wives and children was
'.mere Indian twaddle, but, nevertheless, (the
General had just taken a wife, be it remem-
bered,) he would recommend that their re-
quest be granted since they would never rest
until they had them" The requisite orier
for the removal OF the wives and children
from the Indian territory to Florida was
issued, but row Agent HawOrth telegraphs
that the Sioux and COmanche women are
unwilling To 90, and wants 10 know if h
must fOrcibly remove them. Perhaps de-
spairing Of their husbands release, they
have made other domestic arrangements
The question the government must now de-
eide is shall they be forced 10 90 in COM
piiance with the request of husbands No. 1?

IL Is probable that the District Commits
sioners Will soon take up for consideration
the subject of repairing Pennsylvania ave-

Should they determine 10 take any action in
the premises, the work will be necessarily
limited To patching up the worst places, and
possibly The extending OF the concrete pave
ment On the north side, between 10th and 18th
streets, IN which case the work will be given
out TO the lowest responsible bidder. The
questions as 10 their power. and the means OF
the District TO DO this work, must however.

pany in Pennsylvania has just paid that sum
for the transportation OF the amount OF coal

shipment Of the kind ever made by rail to
