WASHINGTON Oct. 1.-The open letter Of Chas.
IL Ham, ex-Appraser at Chicago, to Score
tary Brstow, has reached here. The Treasury
officials find it significant only for its perversons of
fact. notable instance is the statement respect
ing the report of Special Agent Yale. That re-
port was not a special report upon the APP
praiser. Ii was not ordered to be made by
Secretary Bristow. 1t has not yet been
seen by him. Agent Hale, under a letter of
instructions from Bluford Wilson. Solicitor of the
Treasury of the date of July 80, instructed to
visit nine different ports and to examine and report
upon the operations OF the interior bonded importation
act 81 July f. 1870, known asthe Immediate Trans
portation act. This letter rccted that representa-
tons of grave irregularities practiced under this act
had been made TO the Treasury Department by
Special Treasury Agent Mills, by the firm of H. ID.
Bakcr & Co. of New-NOrk, aud by Eastern news
pspers Agent Hale was instructed first to begin
With ports where the goods landed-Baltmorc,
Philadelphia, New-York, and BoStOn-and then TO
trace the goods TO Cincinnati Louisville, st. Louis,
Detroit and Chicago and 10 make a separate report
upon each If these cities.
If Agent Hale was detailed to investigate the case
of Mr. Ham, his letter Of instructions of very
comprehensive character He was sent West in the
routine course of special agency business and 1t
appears that Secretary Brlstow uncOnccrncd
rs to the socitude of Mr.. Ham that he did not
know the investigation proceeding. Agent
Hale made a general report upon the Immediate
Transportation act, and special report upon each
of the nine cities in only one of.which there was an
Appraiser. namely Mr. Ham.
In the general report, Mr.. Hale finds that the sys-
TEN il working admirably; that it is of great hene-
fit to the West that customs officers generally are
Efficient and honest and that the Irregularities are
both mimportant and are not tainted with fraud.
The general report contains several recommended
tions the adoption of which would better secure the
payment of revenue upon goods which are in transit
10 the interior II Is very probable that Secretary
Bristow prefers 10 make these recommends
lions public i'm his annual report. and not
through the newspapers. The reports OF
these special agents are not intended
for publication but are designed solely for the pri-
vate information Of the Department. The special
report upon Chicago is rather significant, for the
absence of reference to Mr.. Ham, Shic the exam
iner Merritt, is mentioned efficient officer.
The examiner has long been regarded as practically
The Appraiser. The Collectors Office and the Ell
cheney Of Deputy Collector Hill are commended.
Very little of Mr. Ham is there in this report upon

The Right Not TO Smoke.

Seth Hunt, Esq, well known citizen Of
northampton, Mass, and treasurer of the
Connecticut River Railroad, in a recent letter
concerning the rights of smokers and non
smokers, writes
Spurgeon smokes and says there is no
sin in it, He has right to smoke but there
are multitudes Of others (and am one of
them) who do not smoke, who hate the prac-
tice, who are sickened by it. They have a
right not to smoke; and yet Mr.. Sturgeon
and his fellow-smokers force others to breathe
their smoke, whether it is offensive or not.
Mr.. Sturgeon may think it necessary to take
medicine. He has the right TO do so but
he should not compel those around him to
swallow poison, every time he does. There
Is the rub, in this smoking custom The
rights OF non-smokers are, as general rule
invaded by those who smoke.

A Word Of Comfort.


"Send me word to comfort me for the
death of my baby" writes broken-hearted
mother TO me.
My dear friend | might tell you that
there are thousands of chldless mothers all
over the land, who, like you, are looking for
comfort here and there, and find none; but
that would not help you. | might tell you,
too, that if you knew all the sorrowful his
tories that have been told me by tongue and
pen, for many years, you would be glad that
your baby has gone where there is no more
pain; but that would not cause you to shed
one tear the less, or keep you from telling
that your sorrow was harder than theirs.

this affection; but your vision is so dimmed,
that time only can enable you to see it. 1t

cheek close to the grass upon my baby s
grave lest she should be lonely without me,
though knew she was not there. And yet
| have tried to thank Him who took her so
early, that the storms of life which after
wards overlook me, did not burst over her
little head. So, as | say, | shall not reason
with you now, for that were worse than use
less. only reach out my woman's hand
and clasp yours in sympathy, although we
never may meet in this world
But one thing | know, that in the other
world your baby and mine will know us,
their mothers, else God were not God. By
the strong love that came with them, this
must be we could not be so cruelty Knocked
if this were TO be the end.
Now, do not sit down and brood over your
grief, if you can help it. DO not close your
blinds and shut out the sunshine. Let il
warm you, though your baby is cold. You
would rather have felt its little warm clasp
even for that brief time, than not to have
known the bliss of motherhood, would you

you the misty land it used to be. You see

sic, and one little voice your mothers's ear

And so, with my love, leave you.

And Cider, Too.


Here are some suggestions ON cider-drink-
ing that are worth pondering
The tendency, from cider down through
beer to ardent spirits, is just as natural as
the tendency of water TO run down hill.
Appetite is an insidious thing; give II an
inch, and it will take a rod. Appetite is
never quiescent; it grows by what II feeds
on, and is never satiated until it lays its
victim in the grave.
Suppose the excessive drinking of cider is
not, as it will in very many cases be, followed
by an appetite for ardent spirits it produces
a diseased action Of the digestive organs, re-
sembling dyspepsia, only ten-fold worse a
sort Of hypochondriasis, in which "the
times are unprecedently hard the world is
all going TO destruction" and other vagaries
OF an equally cheering and stimulating nature.
Many man, respected, and of high stand
ing in church and society, has renegade sons,
whose ruin might be traced to an appetite
for ardent spirits engendered by the cider
barrel. This appetite is not natural appe-
tite; it Is an acquired appetite. Every pa
rent in becoming such, assumes a response
bility from which he cannot escape; and is
