The affairs Of the Signal Service Bureau were
under discussion in both houses of Congress
recently. In the Senate, Logan, while dis
claiming any hostility to the signal corps,
said he had been attacked In the newspapers
by articles written in the Signal Service office
and paid for with Government money. This
he could prove. In the House Beltzhoover
attacked the administration of the Signal Ser
vice Bureau under Hazen. A number of MEM
bers, friendly to General Hazen, took part In
the debate, and the discussion was interesting.
The House Committee .on Appropriations
discussed the proposition Of the Secretary oil
the Treasury to consolidate customs collec-
ton districts, and decided, in view OF the lack
of time to satisfactorily investigate the sub
ject, to make the regular provision in the ap-
preparations for customs districts as now con-
stituted.

are reported as favoring a scheme for the re-
moval of negroes from the Cherokee Nation

which the land can be worked. There are
about Sc, 900 negroes to be thus removed.
Owing to the recent unpleasantness be-
tween Secretary of War Lincoln and Gen.
Hazen, of the Signal Service, 1t is said that
the former has withdrawn the examination
papers of the Sergeants lately examined for
promotion, and will not act upon them without
first investigating the matter. There are SO
many charges and countercharges relative to
favoritism in the Signal Bureau just now that
the Secretary has been urged to unusual care
in these selections for promotion.
A memorial demonstrating against the con-
frmation of the Mexican Treaty has been pre-
scented to the Senate. 1t is signed by we'll
known eastern importers and refiners of sugar.
The chief objection Identification is expressed
as follows: ''We are informed that the treaty
admits certain grades of Mexican sugar duty
free, the consequence of which, while duty of
over two cents per pound is imposed on other
imported sugar, would be to give a bounty of
two cents pound equal to fifty per cent on
cost to the sugar planters of Mexico at the
expense of the consuming public of the United
States" "This," the memorialists say, ''has
been proven by experience under a similar
treaty with the Hawaiian Kingdom, and we
submit that there can be no grosser injustice
than thus to practically impose heavy tax
upon our citizens for the benefit of foreign
sugar planters"

Storms.

"Veronica" writes in The Garden that
1--WE are, perhaps, little too apt to
look upon storms and hurricanes rather
in the light of enemies than as friends,
as they undoubtedly are. Some
wicked old cynic once said that if we
only knew the real worth or value that
our enemies were to us weshould make
more of them; and perhaps it is true
also of wind storms which injure us
most, becasuse they visit us so very
seldom. Amid the creaking of branches
and the crash of fallen trunks we are
perhaps too apt to look on wind as a
destroyer rather than as the strength.

Louisville Exposition.

Courier Journal.
Whether it paid to exhibit in the
Southern Exposition is illustrated by
the fact that something over six hum
bred car loads of exhibits came from
the North, and only about one hun.
bred have been sent back to the North.
About five hundred Car loads were
sold during the Exposition and have
been sent South. This amount of sales
of Northern exhibits is, of course, indie
pendent of the orders received and sent
to the manufacturers to be filled. The
general expression of opinion among
exhibitors was that no exhibition had
brought about so many sales, and with
this experience of the Exhibition of
IS 80 there can be no doubt that an ex-
hibition of 1884 would bring more
than enough exhibitors.

McMinhville, Dec. Ia, 1883.
No material change in the grain
market, prices being about the same as
last week. A moderate demand for
wheat. The best grades of wheat, Of
which We have but lillle, are in de.
mand, but nearly all we have is below
No. z, and NOT wanted except at low
figures. The indications are that the
visible supply of wheat in the grain
centers is large and ample to supply
the demand until the new crop is made.
II this is true not much change in
prices of wheat may be expected, ex-
cept, possibly, in certain localities there
may be slight changes. Corn contin-
ues dull South, and the supply in ex-
cess of the demand, especially new
corn, The indications f0 an improve
ment in prices West and East, as the
season advances, are favorable. The
early frosts North and Northwest soft
ened aud injured the corn in some To-
calilies and the crop Is shorter than
last year. If corn advances West as we
believe 1t will the South will have to
be supplied from the Middle States,
and Tennessee corn viii be in demand.
AT present corn is dull and The market
over supplied.
Dried fruit still dull and low enough.
Green spples, if good sound stock, are
in better demand and will readily
bring 60 cents. The trouble with our
apples this season is they are too much
disposed tn early decay and do not bear
transportation well.
Eggs are lower with a prospect of a
further decline as the supply increases.
