TONS In no year since the var thus early il
the season has he seen such activity displayed,
or so much ground already prepared for the

ground broken up it is gratifying to see 4 great
deal of new fencing and the erection OF new
houses and stabliug, which are certainly healthy
Indications. Many farmers are now engaged
in sowing oats, and corn. planting will begin as

SOUTHERN MAI. CONTRACTORS. Congress
at its last session passed au aci providing for
the paymcut Of persons who were contractors
fer carrying the mails in those States that en-
gagged 10 The war for the period between their
last settlement aud before said States engaged
in war ayaiost the United States The Sixth
Auditor is at loss to know what construction
is to be put upon the phrase before said States
engaged ia war against the United States. .
Accepting the term war Is covered by rebel,
lion, the question arises whether, AZ lii some OF
the States aggressive acts preceded the la;-
sage Of the ordinance Of sGccaSIDu, and IN others
the ordinance preceded any overt acI, the one
or the other should be accepted rs !ha date,
and also whether, the ordinance being nu!iiv,
it had the effect to place the State in Il c3ndl
ton Of war against the United States. al ser
vice 10 these States was discontinued by the
Postmaster General on the 3lst Of May, 1861,
and service up to that time has been certified
by the Post Office Department TO This class o!
claimants to the amount Of $500, 900, aud it
was doubtless upon this data that Congress APP
propriatcd the 1915 900, Or SO much thereof as
may be necessary, 10 pay the claims. There is
also proviso in the bill that where any pOrtun
Of the service was paid for by the late ConIed
eracy it shall be deducted, and another qucs-
ton arises as 10 how the evidence Of such pay
ment shall be obtained. On the breaking cut
Of the war the Conttderacy assumed all the
mail routes in the South, aud it is known that
the service on many Of the routes was contin.
ucd aud paid for as long as The funds to pay
with held out. The Washington Republican
says: The several questions arising under the
act have been referred to The Secretary OF the
Treasury and by him to the Attorney General.
and it is possible the contractors will have to
wait until Congress can putt construction upon

HAVANA. March 23.-The French steamer
from Vera Cruz brings City OF Mexico dates
to March 18th. Several generals (original
Diaz revolutionists) have resigned. The
party is rapidly disintegrating, and the op-
position is fast consolidating the people.
They talk of calling Lerdo back. Congress
will meet daily for fortnight, bat quo
rum Is unobtainable, the deputies elected
not coming to the capital.
General MorSccl recognized Diaz, and was
appointed Governor OF Sonora. General
Cortinas is IN high favor with Diaz, who
shields him. There is much anarchy. A
revolution will probably occur soon. Ameri-
can residents hope Minister Foster will re-
main, in view OF the present condition OF
the country. The lower element is now
holding the power. The Iglesias party is
defunct. Londero has been appointed Sec
rotary OF the Treasury. Malta minister to
Washington, and Diva Palario minister to
Berlin.
Generals Negretc and Yalz had a personal
encounter in the palace.
1t is reported that 4 number OF the higher

There is Strcet-improvcmcnt going Oh
in west New-Courthouse street, and the
workmen are engaged in blasting out rock.
Monday evening, just as blast exploded,
Hiss Nellie Burr, Of Richmond, who is
boarding at the kalorama House here,
turned the corner, and a piece OF rock was
driven through two wells into her eye,
lodging Just above tue ball. The wound
caused her intense PAIN, and it is feared that
Inflammation may cause the loss OF the eye.
Next week the United States gauser's and
siorckcepcr's offices are to be consolidated,
and some six or eight men thrown out OF
positions. There is 4 great deal OF anxiety
among those concerned.
The Second Presbyterian congregation

sermon.
A committee OF the Council having re-
ported that the assault of Mr.. A. W. Smith,
Superintendent of the Water Works, upon
Dir. J. 3. Evans, chairman Of the Water Com
mittee, was "unprovoked and uniustifable,
and deserved the seyereSt censurc," reso-
luton was offered by President Fultz to
suspend him for ninety days, but the Cour-
Gil declined to adopt it. A committee was
then appointed TO investigate the compe-
tency OF the Superintendent for his posi-
lion. Smith has secured counsel, and pro-
misses to make things lively by the introduc-
ton OF some evidence hitherto deemed
QlianGe, which will throw good deal Of
light on the matter Of his competency.

THE Bill. TO PERpETuATE FRAUD IN PHlI.A-
pELruIA.-H Harrisburg, Pa, March 22.-The
Senate tonight by a party vote passed the
bill prohibiting the sheriff OF Philadelphia
from appointing deputies at elections. The
arguments OF the Democrats, which were
cut oil by the previous question, were
mainly to the effect that the act was uncon-
sttutional. The Republicans substantially
admitted that its primary object was to per-
petuate the power Of the party in Philadel-
phia. The May or OF that city, under the act,
has exclusive power to appoint deputies,
and repeating and personating will go on rs
usual ut the polls under the encouragement
OF the police. Special dispatch to the BdHl-
