WASHINGTON, November 2-Genersl Ha-
zen, Chief Signal Officer, has made his
annual report to the Secretary of War.
Among other things, he says that notable
progress has been made in raising the
standard Of the service, in the preparation
of special press bulletins, forecasts of the
weather for periods exceeding twenty-four
hours and of the northers, organization Of
the service for the cotton planters benefit
in the extention of frost warnings, the Or
ganization of the weather services and
the organization of two Arctic observing
stations.
Referring to the weather forecasts for the
cotton districts, General Hszsn says: Gun
fortunately. Congress did not appropriate
the amount necessary to meet the expense
OF the increased work proposed for the Sig
nal Service, and | was very unwillinglY
compelled TO reduce the number Of sta
tious to be established to one hundred, Sc
lected from the two hundred and forty
eight stations promised, which are
so 81 uated as to be over the cotton belt. l
very earnestly hope that Congress will this
year provide the funds necessary for great
extension Of this special feature of the ser
vice, which promises, with very small ex-
penditure, such great practical advantages
TO the staple interest OF the South"
Speaking Of the special forecasts Of the
weather for periods of more than twenty
four hours, he SAYS they will be continued.
II successful. The progress made in the
river service is such as to justify the belief
that it will soon be our absolute safeguard
against unexpected freshets and floods.
The gratifying results OF the frost warn
ings in the sugar districts OF Louisiana have
encouraged General Hszen to undertake
this year, for the first time, similar warnings
for the benefit of the orange interests of
Florida, and the fruit interests of other ex-
posed points.
In conclusion, General Hszen says: "The
advancement of the service thus far has
been accompanied by continued and salts
factory success"

TREASURY DEPARTMENT.,
OFFICE COMPTROLLER OF CURRENCY, :
WASHINGTON, July 81, 1880.
SIR desire to call your attention to the
importance Of proving the correctness of
the accounts Of the banks you examine
with their corresponding banks, and to this
end you are instructed to call for and ex-
anime critically and, as far as possible, re-
concile accounts current In all cases,
or If 1t be found impossible to
reconcile the accounts, as 1t,
probably, often will be, you will satisfy
yourself that the balances claimed, both
debit and credit, are substantially correct,
the means Of doing which must be left to
your own judgment. When the balances
claimed are exceptionally large, or II you
see any reason to doubt that they are cor
rect, you will rectify them by corresponding
with the debtor or creditor of the banks as
the case may require. Very respectfully,
JOHN j. KNOX, Comptroller.

ANARCHY IN PERU.
A Revolt In the SOuth-MinisIer
Hurlbut's Ctterances Made the
Basis for UprisIngs-The Term of
ChIIi's Occupation.

PANAMA, October 24-Advices from Lima
to the 18th inst. state that cablegram was
received on the 8th announcing that the
troops in Are quipa had revolted and i'm
prisoned Solar and his chief officers, and de-
clared in favor Of Garcia Calderon. No blood
shed occurred. The Calderon people believe
that the important departments Of Puno and
Cuzco will have followed AreQuipa,
while Pierola's partisans declare that a
counter revolution must have been effected
ere this, that Solar will have been reinstated
and the rebels punished.
The revolution in the South has been
promoted, it is believed, by those who think
the United States intend armed Intervention
on behalf of the provisional government.
Every effort has been made to convey this
belief to the public mind, and General
Hurlburt's communications have been
widely published and circulated, as have
also counterfeit dispatches bearing his sig
nature, in which he is made to threaten the
Chilian forces, should they not Immediately
withdraw from Peru.
A Santiago (Chili) journal says: "The ru-
NOR increases in strength that our govern
ment intends to prolong indefinitely the oc
cupatlon of Peru, and to organize its ad-
ministratiOn better than at present. The
military power is to be substituted by civil
one, which will be sustained by military
force sufficiently strong to crush all armed
resistance and to reduce to impotence those
occupying strategic points in the interior.
