| THE CIVIL SERVICE REFORM.
WASHINGTON, May 31.-There can
properly be no question that the Presi-
dent is sincere in his declarations with
reference to reform in the civil service,
and that he means to carry out, so far as
he can, the sentiments enunciated in his
letter of instructions in regard to the re-
duction of force in the New York GUS
tom house. But it is no more than truth
to saw that little confidence is felt here in
any permanent good in the matter through
the action of the Executive alone. The
reduction ordered at New York will of
course be made, to be followed likely by
reductions in other custom-houses. But
as soon as Congress meets pressure of
political and personal friends will be
brought to bear to restore the old order
of things.
PROPOSED SURVEYS ON THE PACIFIC
COAST.
WASHINGTON, May 31.-For several
| years past the bureau of navigation at
the Navy Department has made strenu-
GUS efforts to obtain sufficient appropri-
alton to make proper survey of the
Pacific Ocean, and especially the coast
between the Isthmus and San Fran
cisco, for the benefit of commerce be-
tween those places. The necessity
for a proper survey of the very locality
where the Pacific Mail Company's
steamer City of San Francisco was re-
Gently wrecked has been felt, and it was
proposed to make such survey. Estimates
were prepared for that purpose to be sub
mitted to Congress, but the late Secretary
of the Navy did not deem it advisable to
give the matter this approval, and there
fore the survey could not be made,
WASHINGTON NOTES.
WASHINGTON, May 31.-To gentle

General Devens, who will examine the

BAD CONDITION OF THE TURKISH
FIGHTING Misunderstanding to a
correspondent of the New York Times,
now with the Turkish army in Asia, the
fighting material of their army is in bad
condition, owing to mismanagement and
dilatoriness. The Times correspondent,
writing from Batoum under date of May
6, reports that 800 Krupp guns were bun
led in the snow on the road from Trebi-
zond to Erzeroum, and that more cannon
were lying on the beach at the former
place, as if impossible of being transport
ed inland. So, too, of the Kurds and Cir
cassians, of whom such great things were
and are expected by the Turks. There
was absolutely no preparation made for

Ruled victory from your guns away;
You played a gallant part!
Defeat, indeed, is hard to bear
But it was scarce defeat
You breathe the same unfettefed air

And that is only meet.

False hopes within your soul;

Ifhuauelpnla Times,
The report Of the Hon. j. Ross Snow
den warmly recommends the re-estab-
lishment OF the mint at Charlotte, N. @.
The present production Of the south.
eastern gold belt he puts at 100000 q
year, but the method OF reduction is
crude, and usually does not produce
more than 25 to 30 per cent Of the gold
the ores contain. The tailings from the
stack below the stamp mill at Kings
Mountain, on an accurate survey, show
ed q gold value of 1857 90. and It is
believed that improved machinery will
increase the yield. Kings Mountain or
CASTOR Mine should produce not less
than $500, Mr.. Snowden thinks II
the placer mines were properly worked
the North Carolina gold production
should be what It was before the gold
deposits in California were discovered
between one and two million dollars.
None Of The South Carolina mines are
now In operation. In 1869 the entire
of gold In the United States
had reached 1920. 900, 900 and has since
declined to 300, O0o, 900, and Is declining.
Mr.. Snowden believes that the re- estab-
lishment of mint operations at Charlotte
would stimulate the production of gold
In the Southern belt.

pyramids OF their heads being erected to
adorn the landscape, and of wells being
filled up to the surface with such bodies
as the vultures, jackals, and pariahs
were too gorged to consume. The great
reason OF the rapid diminution OF the
Mohammedan population in Asia Minor
throughout the last three centuries as
compared with the increasing ratio OF
the Christian races, is that the former
often rose against the expressions Of the
Turkish government, sometimes for q
time successfully, but being in the end
defeated, their villages were RACED and
they themselves executed or driven into
Persia. Whole districts became depop-
ulated during these rebellions, which
broke out at intervals from the end of
the sixteenth century to the commence
ment OF the present century; some Of
them, like that of Abaza in the seven
