CIVIL SERVICE AND SECRETARY WINDOW.
The Baltimore SUNS Washington CORE
spondent says: II is we'll known 10 many
Of secretary WINDOWS friends that he is
cireiully considering the introduction OF
ciYilSeryice rules into the Treasury De-
partment aud all its branches, including the
customs service. He finds that large part
q MS time is taken up IN considering the
claims and demands Of Office. seekers, and
be i entirely convinced that the only rem.
eds for this is the adoption OF clvil'seryice
rules and a rigid adherence to them, and
their introduction is only question OF a
limited number OF days.
THE PROSPECTS OF THE RsADJUSTERs.
Snowden says the prevailing opinion
among the ViTginians now here as regards
Naboneism is that the recovery OF the Pre-
,ident has given it the grace stroke, and
that the probability OF their getting the
money in the North with which TO pay the
capltatiOn tax OF the negroes has been re.
duced 10 the condition Of remote posi-
blity. The interview their delegation had
With Mr.. Cameron last week showed that
ihpy need have little hope in that direction.
About ten or fifteen thousand negroes pay
their capitation tax, but about seventy-fve
thousand don't value the privilege Of suf-
ilage sufficiently high to pay the one dollar
required 10 enjoy 1t; and it Is upon the
support Of the latter that the Mahoneites
have based their hopes OF success.
