THE NEWS IN BRIEF.

GOSSZPFROM WASHINGTON.
In Major McGinnis' Grafton before the
army of the Potomac at Washington, there
is this dip into the mournful eloquence OF
figures: What had this victory COST
From May, 1861, to March, 1884, the losses
of the srmy of the Potomac were, in killed,
1920; wounded, $3.50: captured, 81, 1913;
in. all 112.448- From March 1884 to
500; captured or missing. $4,000; aggregate,
10000. From the beginning 10 the close
of the wat, killed, 81, 40; wounded, 158, 852;
captured or missing, SO, 1873. A grand ag-
gregate Of 252, $50: Adding those who died
of gun-shot wounds the number of men who
lost their lives in action in the army of the
Potomac was $500, probably one half of
all who died from wounds on the field of
battle in all the armies of tie United States"
The latest estimated place the total value
of unredeemed internal revenue stamps at
$50, 000,00O Thus far only few of the un-
used stamps have been sent in for redemp-
ton or exchange. The few that have come
to hand are unbroken packages bought in
bulk for heavy dealers who purchased them
in large quantities to make the discount. It
is not exp. cted that the stamps will begin to
come in large quantities before June l.
Patent Commissioner Marble estimates
that the receipts of the patent Office for the
current year will be $12,000,OO0, or $4,000
more than last year. After July the force
in the office will be reduced by twenty one
clerks. This reduction will not effect the
examining divisions, but work in the copy
ing divisions.
Although the internal revenue receipts
have continued very large during the month
imports have been so light that together
with heavy disbursements the debt re-
duction will be small. Commissioner
Dudley has sent in $4,000, 900 worth of
pensions, which will make a big hole in the
reserve.
The resignation of Lieut.. Col. Guido tlges,
Eighteenth infantry has been received re-
Gently, a. department headquarters and for
warded- to tina ssarstary- of war. 1t will
doubtless be accepted, and will take effect
at once upon its receipt.

Of difficulty. called in the counsel Of the
young Tsraelite Joseph. The conditions
have been so radically changed, during
the past decade, that we can imagine a
year in which not drop of rain should
fall, and yet in which Los Angeles
county would revel in abundance. The
truth is that the Importance Of rain is
very much exaggerated In this section.
So happy is the nice adjustment Of sun
and soil here that very trifling rainfall
is a guarantee OF splendid crops When
critical and discriminating intelligence,
founded upon actual experiment, has
been directed to the proposition, it will
be discovered that the chances Of drouth
are at least twice as great in New York
as in Los Angeles county, not because
the rainfall ia not greater in New York
than in Los Angeles, but because, in
the Empire State, there may be forty
inches Of rain, falling at the wrong time.
which will fail in producing crop OF the
cereals; while ten inches Of rain, falling
in Los Angeles, at the righs time, will
have the happiest crop results.

THE rain which is now prevalent is
worth millions OF dollars to L9s Angeles
county and it is, altogether the most
auspicious event which has been re.
corded in our local history for long
time past. Il has proven to be warm,
abundant and most timely. The HER
AID has perseyeringly asserted that the
present would prove to be the best sea.
son this county has known for years.
1t has constantly scoffed at the idea of a
possible drouth; and has asserted that,
hereafter drouth is impossible in Los
Angeles county. The fact is that, uu.
der intelligent conditions, drouth need
never be feared hereabouts. 1t was an
incident OF county which was abso.
lutely uncultivated, and in which the
sheep, horned cattle and horses, had
multiplied to unheard of proportions.
Under that old and unreAeeting regime
failure of the normal rainfall meant a
calamity as great as that which menaced
Egypt when Pharaoh. in coniuncture

WE feel a great deal OF reserve in
yenturing to sit in Judgment upon our
high and honorable City Council, and
yet we cannot help thinking that i;
sometimes passes very foolish ordin-
ances. Take, for instance, that under
which farmer was recently arrested
for aellmg single bundle of hay in our
streets. The city cannot well prosper
unless the farmers are prosperous. Their
patronage is thing sought by all our
merchants. We cannot afford to dis.
courage the appearance in our streets oil
the honest, horny. handed granger, who
knows little and cares less, about GER
tain iinicky artificial municipal regula'
tions, ,ill.adyised and inopportune as they
certainly are. Let the farmer sell his
single bundle of hay, and welcome.
Repeal this absurd ordinance. Unless
we mistake the mettle OF the man, here
is fine opportunity for Col Walter 5,
Moore to show his ungovernable bucoli'
sympathies.

Indian Murders at Richmond--
The Governments Policy Sc

LoRDsBuRoH IN. NJ, March 27.--
The Indian outbreak seems to be assum.
ing alarming proportions. A Richmond
special gives intelligence Of the killing
Of two more, making total Of nine
white mon killed in the vicinity Of Rich.
mond during the past twenty -four hours.
This thing is becoming monotonous.
Had the Government left sufficient
force at Richmond, Yorks and Clifton,
instead Of withdrawing them in Octo.
Der last, as was done, this outrage would
have been avoided. 1t will doubtless be
repetition Of the old, old story, so
sadly illustrated in April OF last year.
The Indians will flee into Old Mexico,
the troops will follow at safe distance
and Washington dispatches will TEEN
with reports Of the troops being In hot
pursuit, and all that sort Of balderdash,
but the fact will remain that these
lives have been lost, and that
they would have been, saved had the
imbeeile policy Of the government been
vigorous and prompt, instead OF what it
is, and has been for years past. The
citizens are able to rely upon themselves
but to do so it il advisable that the
troops be withdrawn in toto Capt.

The Apple-stone Breach OF
Promise.
CHICAGO, March 27.--Judge McAllis.
ter delivered an opinion in the Appellate
Court to day in the case Of Dora Apple
against Nathan A. Stone for breach of
promise. Stone promised Apple in
April, 1881, to marry her September
25th following Both of them are Jews,
and when the day arrived it turned out
to be Yom kippur, ia Jewish feastl, on
which no Jewish priest would celebrate
the marriage, consequently Stone de-
clined to be married that day, and two
days after Apple sued him for S5, 600
damage for breach OF promise. The
jury gave her $1,000 damages. The APP
pellate Court overruled the decision and
decides that no good jew can be com.
pelled to marry ON Yom kippur whether
he promised to do so or not. Miss Apple
evidently is not diseonsolate over Stones
default, as she has since married.
