The Arithmetics sent me were duly received. I
have carefully gone through them, and am very
much pleased with them. They seem to me to be
very well adapted to our American school system.
1 like them for their methodical arrangement, and
because the Practical Arithmetic is very PRACrI-
CAL. I like them because, while they are adapted
to those students who expect to advance higher
in mathematics, they are specially suited to that
large class who never have the opportunity to ad

Washington, 21.-Tbe enforced
resignation of Assistant Postmaster
General Brady continues to be a
prominent topic of comment and
rumors are afioat that it is soon to
be followed by a criminal indict-
ment of Brady, and a number of
prominent mail contractors, for cor
Spiracy to defraud the government,
and by civil suits to procure restltE-
ton of large amounts of money
alleged to have been thus fraudu-
lently acquired by them. 1t is fur
ther intimated in seemingly well in
formed quarters that the resignation
of several other department officers,
whose relations with the Star route
ring have been of a questionable
character, will also be demanded
and that several clerks in the con-
tract office are marked for dismissal.
4 full statement of the results Of
the investigation now IN progress Is
promised to be given to the press
by Postmaster General James as
soon as it is completed; and there is
strong reason to expect that the de-
velopments will be very startling.
The suddenly rendered resigna-
ton of Second Assistant Postmaster
General Brady has created a great
deal of talk and considerable of a
sensation. Ever since Postmaster
General James entered upon the
discharge of his duties, the air has
been thick with rumors, and it is
thought that developments in the
near future will naturally lead up to
another important change in the
office of second assistant postmaster
general. Such changes, it is under
stood, having become imperative
by the detection of unfaithfulness
on the part of the present incumbents
in the discharge of their official
trusts. Specific information, ar
ranged on the Star route scandal,
is carefully withheld by postoffice
officials, but it is admitted that the
records show that on the 1st OF
January 1880, the pay for carrying
mails on less than 100 out OF
more than 1000 Star routes
had then increased from about
100000 at the time of letting,
to $2,SOO,0OO, by orders for adj
ditional trips and for shortened
time. Considerable part of this in
creased service, according to evil
dence accumulated, was either not
performed at all, or very imperfectly
performed, the Irregularities being
carefully planned, it is supposed fol-
I the purpose of transferring money
from the treasury to the pockets OF
favored contractors and their con
federates. Irregularities seem tC
have been confined chiefly to the
routes west of the Mississippi River
and those in the territories. Aftel
rendering his resignation, Genera
Brady lett for New York.

pany for the manufacture of iron and
of coke. The discussion is for the
purpose Of ascertaining whether, IN
the opinion OF the Board, il would
not prove a profitable Investment to
embark in these enterprises, besides
assisting ia building up The material
wealth of the country. There is
little doubt as to the conclusion that
will be arrived at-Utah should man
ufseture iron and coke. II this be
the result of the Boards delibera-
tions, then the programme, so far as
can be ascertained, is to orgsnize >
company at once. in which our
moneyed men will embark, while ell
will have an opportunity that wish
u invest. Toe chances are therefore
mat, should the Denver aud Rio
Grande not go into the iron manu-
faciuring enterprise, we will have it
any way; and should it do so, it will
be no OBSTACLE in the way of another
company, for the reason that for some
years to come it is likely to use al
lhe rails it can make, and a great
many more, in the construction OF it
own roads.
But should it enter the market,
still there is a broad field tor two
such enterprises. The entire wesl

great bulk of the Article consumed in
that state lie shipped around the Horn.

tories in the west may possess them,
the countries are to young ye., the
price of fuel and living are Too high,
and communication is yet too slight,
to Justify any attempt in that direc-
tiou, and these conditions will exist
Tor years 10 come. Moreover, during
al! this time Utah will be gathering
the trade here, and should any COM
petition be commenced in rival sta.el

Frye'B FusiIade.

Washington, 21.-Southern demo-
cratic senators are greatly displeased
with Frye's speech of yesterday and
attach great significance to it on
account of his intimate relations
with Secretary Blaine. Many of
them also charge it upon the Ad-
ministratiOn in general as several
departments had apparently been
ransacked to furnish material for it,
and the consequence is that a num-
Der of southern democrats hitherto
favorable to the confirmation of
Judge Robertson, now talk of voting
with Senator Conkling for his rejec-
ton. They argue that Frye's utter
ances concerning the south indicate
a spirit of sectional animOSity on
the part of Gariield's Administration
and that they have even less to hope
for from that quarter than from the
Conkling faction, because by join
ing in his fight against the presiden-
tial nomination they may help to
establish the senatorial courtesy
doctrine and thereafter reap advant-
age from it; whereas, if they con-
firm these nominations, they have
nothing to expect from either fac
ton. 1t will doubtless be ascer-
tanned in good time, however, that
Frye made his speech upon his own
responsibility, and that the infOrma-
ton obtained by him from the de
partment records was simply such
as any other senator would be en-
titled to receive upon application.

Washington, 2I.-The Vice Pres

GERS. By unanimous consent the
papers on file in the Senate relative
10 Inc subject have been referred to
the committee on judiciary.
oke replied to portions of Frye's
speech. He said the people of the
south were the same people as those
of the north, a race which had never
Oeen dominated by an inferior race
and never would be. That race
meant to govern in the south. Forty
or forty thousand entering wedges
like that supposed to be inserted In
Virginia, would not deviate it from
It's course. 1t would rule lawfully,
constitutionally, peacefully, in hui
manly and the interests of high
civilization.
Harris moved to adjourn to-day to
. o'clock.
Conkling hoped it would be II for
The sake of unanimity.
Harris replied sarcastically that 1t
would necessitate a waste of three
hours, and three hours Of such
work as the Senate was now doing
were very important.
The motion was lost, as also a
motion to go into executive session,
Il to 20.
Cameron, of Pennsylvania, moved
that when the Senate adjourned to-
day IL be to meet on Monday next.
Cameron claimed that Dawes had
not always been as ready to stand
here as now, but had procured an
adjournment last week in order that
he might go to New York.
Dawes denied this, and there was a
short colloquy, which delighted the
democrats, as it indicated some
small signs of a split among repub-
licans on the question of the dead
lock. However, this notion was
dissipated before the vote was an
nounced on Cameron's motion to
adjourn to Monday, by Cameron
himself voting against it, in order to
show that the motion was not to be
construed as an abandonment of the
republican position. The motion
was lost, 20 to IS.
Farley suggested that this might
be good time to go into executive
session, as there seemed to be little
disturbance in the happy family.
Cameron-There is no disturb
ance. There never was a happier
family in the world.
a colloquy ensued between Call
and Dawes on Massachusetts, suf-
frage. An article from a Charleston
newspaper having been read by
Dawes, Hampton admitted that
there had been irregularity and
fraud, but pleaded as justification
the cruel wrongs committed on the
people of South Carolina. He would

Chicago, 21.-The Times alludes
to the jubilations of the st. Louis
papers over the increase in the grain
trade on account of the new
river barge line, as evidence that
the city is pleased with a rattle and
tickled with a straw, and says
figures, like actions, speak louder
than words. The Times has already
shown that from the 1st of January
TO the 18th of April, 1881, the re-
ceipts of grain and flour (the latter
reduced to grain) in Chicago were
24,479,G07 bushels, against 27,292, 4S1
for the like period in 1880, a loss of
2,S12 ,SS4 bushels, or about I11s per
cent. For the corresponding period
of 1880 the st. Louis receipts were
16,326,220, and in 1881 1861, 003, a
loss of 3,675,217 bushels, or more
than 20 per cent.
