The Park Commission.

Now that the East Rock Park Commission has been appointed, both on the part of the city and the citizens, the public are naturally quite anxious to know when the commission are going to commence their duties. It is understood that the commission will com mence their labors at an early day, though, with the small amount at their com mand this year C$12, ,OOO), they will not be able to make much headway in laying out the grounds. It is presumed that most of the avail able funds will be used in purchasing land that it is necessary to secure in order to con- plete the layout of the park.
 A Steam Launch for the Harvard Grew.
 Itis reported from Boston that Prof. Agas- sig of Harvard visited Bristol, R. l., last week and made a contract with the Herreshof Manufacturing Company for a new steam launch for the use of the Harvard University Boat Club. The craft is to be built and de- livered by the middle of May, and will cost $3, 6OO It will be so arranged that the ma chinery can be controlled from the standing room forward or aft, and her direction can be changed without swinging around, as she will be sharp at both ends. She will be built light, and is guaranteed to travel as fast as an eight o1red crew can row, and not to make wash which will interfere with the shell boats.

Presentation to a Fast Grand.

Another very pleasant event in the history of Relief Lodge of Odd Fellows occurred last evening. There was large gathering pres ent in anticipation of Q special feature of in- terest and which the membership, individ- ually and collectively, had hand in devising. MT. Jeremiah O'Donovan was the person in whom the interest centered For some time the lodge has had in view the presentation to MT. Donovan of mark of it's appreciation of his care and interest in the lodge, he having been the leading spirit in organizing the lodge and having ever been untiring in his eff forts to promote the prosperity of the lodge, and formerly it's chief officer. The gentlemen having the matter in charge procured for a gift to MT. Donovan 8 very beautiful past grand's collar. This was presented to him last evening, MT. Heninger, the sitting past grand of the lodge, making the speech of pre- sentation, which was highly suitable to the occasion. In it mention was made in fitting terms of the ties existing between the lodge and the recipient. The affair was much en- loved by all.

WASHINGTON.
Census Report.

WASHINGTON, November 80. General
Walker, superintendent of census, has sub
mitted his regular annual report. He says
that although work of taking the tenth census
is substantially complete, returns having been
received from all but seven of the 3l2 ,26j
enumeration Districts. 1t will probably be
two or three weeks before complete statistics
of the population of the country can be pre-
scented and he therefore considers it advisable
to postpone to future report all mention of
the results of enumeration and all discussion
of methods in use, as well as any suggestions
which may require to be made and changes
in the census law with reference to future
enumerations. During December tables will
be submitted showing the population of each
State and county in the United States, dis
tinguished native or foreign, white or
coored, male or female. Superintendent
Walker earnestly expressed the.Opinion that
compilation and publication of all the various
classes of statistics should be pushed forward
with the utmost expedition, and to secure
this recommends the reports be printed by
special contract as soon as they are ready.
All returns within this department of the
census it is believed will be in the possession
of this Office during the present month. when
compilation Of manufacturing statistics will
be pushed rapidly forward. There is no
!
will see all enumerators paid, except where
suspension is required for some fault on the
part of the enumeration himself.
Congress and the Appropriation Bills.
The House committee on appropriations
has not yet got together a quorum. From
present appearance none of the regular appro-
priation bills will be ready for consideration
of Congress upon their assembling next
Monday.
Revising the Tactics.
General Upton has been authorized by the
war department to revise his book of tactics,
in use by the army.
Instructions to Collectors.
The Secretary of the Treasury has issued
a circular giving instructions to collectors
and other chief officers of customs. in rela-
ton 10 the number of licenses issued to
steam vessels. which will prevent false entry
of figures such as made by the clerk to the
local inspectors at New York, who embez-
zled $1,000.

LATEST BY MAIL.

General o. q. Howard, in command of the
Department of the Northwestern Territories,
has been ordered to Washington. This fact
gives rise to the surmise that the adminstra-
ton may contemplate appointing him to the
command of West Point.
The report of the commissioner Of internal
revenue has gone to the public printer. IL
makes a most encouraging showing. Where
the estimates for the fiscal year were only
Sl15. 100000 they actually reached some
Sl23. 000, 900. In addition to this the net in
crease in the collections for the four months
ending October 81 was 81, 500, 900. This is
fairly considered as an indication of very
marked revival in business.
John |. Davenport, who has been in Wash
ington seeking new evidence in the matter of
the Morey letter. has obtained some impor-
tant information relative to democratic frauds
prior to the last campaign. He has never
abandoned the search for the 10000 fraudu-
lent naturalization papers issued by the dem
ocrats in New York in 1868 under the Til
