LONDON. Sept 6,-The Mark Lane Ez-
press says: The harvest in the southern
aud eastern counties is mostly completed,
and the grain is stacked in very excellent
condition. The general testimony so far
concurs that the results of the threshing
are disappointing. 1t has been for some
time accepted as matter Of course that
the abnormal season .Snd general preval-
ence of mildew must materially reduce the
yield of marketable wheat, and this is now
found to be the case The barley crop is
much heavier than at one time could
reasonably have been expected. but near.
ly all the best barley were so much laid
up the storm that reports of discolored
and imperfectly ripeued samples are only
what were to have been expected. The
oat crop is better than it promised to be a
month ago. The root crops are fast
maturing, and fortnight of fue weather
will make heavy crop certain. The
hop crop is noticeable in the gardens OF
West Kent, in consequence of the dense
night fogs. The deliveries Of new Eng
lsh wheat have been steadily increasing

A NEW DEPARTURE.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 5.-The new post
master general. Maynard. is making him.
self very unpopular at his department
he really insists upon taking absolute
charge of the department.. and demands a
thorough subordination of all the chiefs
OF bureaus, who have hitherto had some
freedom of opinion under Gen. Key, Gen.
Maynard insists upon assuming the entire
responsibility for the working of every
detail of his department He has all the
worst features of the most jealous of new
men in official place. He has a way OF
driving patient clerks into fits of apolectic
rage By quietly dropping into various
offices under him to see il everybody is in
bis place and attending to his duties. He
has way of making the grand rounds
at the opening and closing of the depart
ment to detect tardy and idle clerks,
This has created great gloom and deprcs-
sion among clerks who tremble for their
places. particularly as Gen. Maynard is.
MAKING MANY REMOVALS
and personal appointments. HIS requests
upon the chiefs under him for places are
of a most peremptory character When
he orders an appointment made a vacancy

incumbent. AS the office department

course of the new postmaster general
rises to a sensational character when
considered from clerks standpoint.
Gen. Maynard's appointments areiall of
purely political character A clerk sus-
pectsd of democracy is wiped out of

notice. The old order Of giving places to

Death OF Joe Winrow.

As o matter Of news, it will in
terest old Californians to learn Of
the death of Joe Winrow, one of
the notables Of the prize ring in
this State q quarter of century
ago. Wlnrow died at his home in
San Francisco last Saturday, at the
age of &c. Joe was an exception to
his class In the fact that he was
. trictly reliable and honest, and
always refused to resort to tricks
or underhand means to win bis
battles. He vanquished Tom
O'Donnell at New Orleans in 1S4S,
after q severe battle which lasted
two hours aud twenty minutes,
and that was the last time he APP
peared as principal In the p. II.
Since then he acted as trainer
to some of the greatest celeb
rifles In the fistic arena. He
trained Tom Hyer for his cele-
brated MILL with Yankee Sullivan,
and John Morrisey for his encoun-
ter at Angel Island, In this State,
with Thompson, noted Australian
pugilist, who came here In 1852.
At that time Joe was carrying on
o pig ranch near San Francisco,
and it was noticed as something
remarkable that he carted swill
from the city to his ranch with q
thoroughbred horse that would
have readily sold for several thou
sand dollars. He acquired this hns
animal ia q peculiar way. The
horse belonged to noted gambler
and desperate named Jim Hughes.
When the Morrisey- Thompson bat
tie was about to be fought, Billy
Mulligan, another noted gambler
and fighting man, bantered
Hughes to bet $4,000 against Nor
risey. Hughes said he had no
money, and Mulligan offered to put
up the sum against Hughes's horse,
which was very fast and stylish
one, and which Hughes was very
fond of displaying in the streets
under the saddle. The bet was
made, and q friend asked Mulligan
what he was going to do with
Hughes's horse If he won 1t. "pl
give it to Joe Winrow to cart
swill," was Mulligan's response.
He did SO, and Hughes was so
deeply cut by the base uses to
which his favorite animal had been
put that he left the State. OF late
years Winrow has taught the
manly art In clubs and given ath-
letic lessons in gymnasiums.
Every body liked Joe.
