The Washington Post Of this morning
says Secretary Schurz recently ten
dered TO the President his resignation OF
the Department of the Interior, and
was only persuaded to withdraw it tenn
porarily at the urgent request of Mr..
HAYES. The story is that Mr.. Schurz
desired that MI Fllley, the postmaster
at St. Louis, should not be reappointed
when his term had expired, but that
the place should be given to Mr.. Samuel
HAYES. "a personal friend Of his own. Mr..
Fillev had been bitterly opposed to Mr..
Schurz in republican politics in Missou-
ri, and the latter had made personal
matter Of his being succeeded by his
(Schuz's) nominee. The matter went
along for some time, but at last the
President did re-appoint Filley, where
upon Mr. Schurz took umbrage and han
ded in his resignation, which he will in
sist shall be accepted" The Post is a
well-informed journal, and generally
knows pretty well about what it is lax
inc. but Nh. Schurz's antecedcntS at
ford strong grounds far believing that it
will require a more pronounced snub
than that he received IN the Filley case
to induce him to relinquish the position
he now holds.

The heavy rains Of the past two days
in Virginia have caused another rise in
the rivers. The bridge over the Staun-
ton river on the Richmond and DanvllC
road. which had Just been repaired, was
again swept away, this being the third
time inside of two months. The bridge
over the same river on the Virginia
Midland road, between Lynchburg and
Danyille, was also washed away. The
bridge was destroyed during the great
ioodin November last, and had been
but recently replaced. The Roanoke
river at Weldon. \. c., is also very
high, and the water at noon yesterday,
was rising at the rate of six TO eight
inches per hour. The railroad bridges
at that point are also threatened.
At the break over the Staunton river.
on the Richmond and Danville road,
two men, G.. II. Mclean and j. f.
Satterwaite, Of New York, attempted
to walk over the bridge. As they
were midway they apprehended danger
and started to return, but span fell,
carrying thcm below some twenty feet.
They fioated down the river a mile,
but were oyertaken by boats and res

The Investigation Resolution.


A misrepresentation has been created
in the public mind as to the effect and
intention of the investigation resolution
reported from the committee on ways
and means, and passed j. the House
on Friday last. Under the resolution
jurisdiction to Investigate is conferred
upon about one dozen OF the House
committees 1T is not the paramount
object of the resolution TO unearth
scandals or. TO open the way 10 make
political capital as Is charged. The
main object, and certainly no one
should object to that, is to purify and
reform the public service and to reduce
the expenditures. If frauds and abuses
are still pcrpetrated in the public SER
vice they ought to be discovered and
corected.> The inquiries which arc to
be set on foot will reach to these I'M
doubleday if they exist. But there is
no particular department and no partlc-
ular ofiisial at which the investigation Is
AIMED. 1t Is TO be general, thorough
and impartial lift results IN collect
ing the proof to sustain the belief that
there cin be still further reduction Of
many millions annually i'll the govern
ment expenses, it will be an invcstlga-
ton W ell worth having. 1t Is an every
dav remark from those interested ana
from those politically opposed to the
dominant party in the House OF Repres-
entatlves. that the democratic House
has crippled the government by cutting
down the clerical force in the depart
ments. Yet the department clerks are
daily dismissed several hours earlier
than clerks in private employ, and be-
Gin work an hour or two later. The
Secretary Ofthe Treasury has now re-
quest before Congress that he be per-
mitted to use an appropriation oil $780,
600 to pay the expenses of temporary
clerks. Yet officials in the department.
admit that the time consumed during
office hours in the persual Of newspapers
and current literature by the permanent
clerks would suffice for much more than
the work done by the temporary clerks.
Among the probable subjects of inves-
tigation will be the alleged over issue
of bonds, and the operations of the diff
erent syndicates, concerning which
there are some ugly stories in circula-
ton. Ball. San.

We publish in this issue bill which
as Mr.. Popham suggested should be
termed bill for tie destruction Of birds.
1t seems singular that any member OF
the House would offer such bill and
astonishing that majority Of the House
should vote for it, The delegates from
Shenandoah, we are glad to see voted
against the bill. The law proposed is
like the present law with the exception
that the new law gives to owners Of
land and tenants the right 10 catch
partridgcs with nets and to trap them.
Were all owners Of land wise men, the
law would DO no harm, for farmers can
not AFFORD to destroy partrldges, but
unfortunately many Of them do not
know it. rFt

Striking straight to the Centre.

The bill submitted to the Finance
Committee yesterday by Mr.. Barbour
on the subject CT taxation, strikes
straight 70 the centre Of the great debt
question which is engrOssing the atten-
ton of the people. 1t will make the
representative men Of Virginia face the
music. 1. leaves no ground for dodg-
ing or skulking.
This bill rests upon the solid
foundation fixed for practical work
on the debt question, in the bold and
robust resolutions submitted in the
Senate carly in the session by that ac-
tive, vigorous, and rising young senator,
John Paul, of Rockingham. The battle
must soon be opened all along the line.

inevitably be victory, and glorious
victory, for the Conservative party and

threatened. The civil population have
been ordered to quit Adrianople, and
5000 persons have already gone. The
civil government has been transferred to
RodOsto.
The Standards special from Con-
stantinople says the Russians have oc-
cupled Eski Saghra and Zeni Saghra,
cutting of the Turkish army. This re-
port is apparently due to a panic at Con-
stantinople.
Several special dispatches announce
that the garrison at Nisch which sur
rendered to the Servians numbered
5000, with 90 cannon, $4,000 rifles and
number Of flags.

the Russians captured 2S,0OO men, 200
horses, - mortars, y siege guns and
so field guns.
The Cossacks have cut the Yamboh
railway.
The Times's Bucharest dispatch says
if s umored the Grand Duke Nicholas
has demanded the surrender of Adriano-
pic as a first condition. No great con-
tidence in the conclusions Of an armistice
is felt at Bucharest unless the matter is
conducted entirely by Russian diplo-
matists to the virtual exclusion OF the
military.element.
A telegram to the Times from Vienna
also saws: According to very trust
worthy information the whole Russian
army feels the hardness, almost in
Justice of armistice proposals, coming

of peace and armistice to be considered
together, as it was understood that these
questions were to be kept separate dur
ing the preliminary negotiations.

defense of Adrianople is virtually I'M
