Washington, Oct. 2l.-The chief sig
nal service officer of the army, in his
report, says eleven new stations have
been added, and special reports are
made for cotton and tobacco growing
regions of the country, and means for
giving warning to cattle raisers of
Texas against the approach of
''northers'' have been improved. Ex-
periments haYe been made with a view
of increasing the value of the farmers
bulletin by the addition of a weather
chart of the United States, and it is
believed that in q short time these
charts may be successfully reproduced
on the farmers bulletin. With each
year the popular knowledge of the uses
of this bulletin enables those interested
in agriculture to judge of the correct
ness Of forecasts, and with the addition
of the proposed weather map indi-
viduals will be able to make correct
predictions of the weather for localities
whic hit is impossible to provide for in
the brief sentence which expresses the
prevailing weather indications antici.
pated for the entire district. 1t is con
templated as a work of office prog 'ess
to add to this bulletin brief instructions
for the uses of instruments which may
hereafter be furnished for local OBJ
servers. The railway bulleting service
has proven of great value the past year.

Buying Ships Abroad.

Tho idea OF going abroad to buy our ships
and Of admitting foreign built ships to
American register is favorite with certain
class Of merchants; but 1t is profoundly re-
pugnant to the feelings Of the people. II
there Is any notion that the majority Of
Americans cling to with obstinacy, 1t is the
notion OF building their ships themselves.
Perhaps some one can inform US whether
the decline in the navigation Of this country
since the beginning Of the civil war has
really been due to the greater cost Of con-
sructing iron vessels and machinery In this
country, or to other causes.
Or, to state the problem differently, If we
could buy the ships Of the Cunard line at
half the cost of making them in Scotland,
could we run them with American sailors,
American flremen, engineers, deck hands,
servants, and officers, in competition with
English, German, and Scandinavian mer-
chants, who have to pay the full cost Of the
vessels on the Clyde, but who employ Brit
ish, German, or Scandinavian crewsp

We copied the other day from the columns
OF our esteemed contemporary. the Courier
Journal. n glowing tribute to GEORGE w.
CHILDs. A. NJ. the wealthy and benevolent
proprietor of the Public Ledger but whether
from jealousy Of Cincinnati. which seems to be
innate alike in the people of both Louisville
and of Chicago. or from some other motive the
writer OF this tribute to the poet-journalist
concluded his comments by stating that " the
truly good man OF the East is to be found in
Philadelphia"
Now. We have no Observation-Disclosures to de-
preciate the merits of Mr.. CHILDs. A. NJ. His
points OF excellence are many and varied eX-
cepting only his modesty. which is indeed with
out variation or shadow of turning; yet We are
bound to aver that while he is good he cannot
properly be described as truly good This is
the peculiar quality in that perfection of per-
sonal attributes which belongs alone to Deacon
RICHARD SMITH Of Cincinnati Mr.. CHILDs has
distinction enough in the fact that he is the
poet laureate of grief. the bard of the inevita-
BILE and the sorrowful. and that the beautiful
obituary lyrics which appear in the daily
columns of his newspaper are. with few eXcep-
tons. from his gifted pen. Let him be content
with this renown. and not seek to rival the fair
and unapproachable fame Of Deacon RICHARD
SMITH of Cincinnati.

MUTILATING LIBRARY BOOKS.

times mutiiated in this way. The problem is
how to stop it."
There Is law against it."
Yes. but the attempt to enforce 1t In the
case OF Frenchman. who was caught In the
Aston Library, was failure. The man said he
harm. and the Police Justice let him off with a
rnprimand But there is great trouble in
catching anyone. To watch all the books that
are consulted would be imgossiblei as it would
require us to double the force Of clerks. Most
Of the mutiations are done in the reference

A Republican journal Tells the Square
Truth TO Mr.. Cornell.
From the Utica Herald, Nay 10.

fToW Wc ttpd heTdtu, nay H.
Gov. Cornell has received a lesson which he
ought to take well to heart The Senate has refused
pass the bill clothing him with power to appoint Rail
road Commission BY a tie vote the Senate failed to
make the bill take effect after the Inauguration of
a new Governor and the proposition to let the peo
pie elect the Commissioners beaten by the votes Of
Republicans with the Tammsny alliance. This is not
good record for the party Nor is 1t good record that
the Republican Senators. with single exception were
willing to place this great power in the hands of Mr.
Cornell But the State is to be congratulated that this
conspiracy is defeated and that all the might of Execu
tive patronage with the alliance Of Tammany failed to
impose this scheme on the people. The Democrats
achieved this result with the aid of single Republican
and will receive credit for it, The trick OF attempting
strike out the salaries and pass the bill by less than
two.thirds was abandoned yesterday by common con.
sent Mr. Cornei's pet plan for forcing the railroads
into his support may be regarded definitely dead.
Even who have beep drsgooned into voting for 1,
will rejoice at Its defeat.
