 The Postal ssrviee-As the Chief Inspee-
 tor Law ft-The Estimates for . year.
 WAsHNaFoN. Oct. 3O.-The annual report of Chief Inspector Parker of the Postoffce department shows that during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1883, 7,941 complaints of registered mail depredations were received and 5,289 were investigated. The total num- Der of regestered articles handled during the year WAS 10. 459, 716 and the estimated total loss G27, which shows very small percent age of loss to the articles mailed. There were received 34, TAP complaints of depreda- tions in ordinary mail matter and 21, 9O8 on ordinary letters. During the year 463 post offices were burgIarizsd, 200 postoffces were burned, 19 highway robberies were com naitted, 15 mails were destroyed in railroad accidents, 39 mails lost by carriers. and 2s mails stolen from depots and stations
 Third Assistant Postmaster General Hagen has prepared the estimates for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1885, as follows: Total gross revenue, $47, ,1O4, ,07s. 31; total expenditure, $50, ,oe2, ,1s9.6O, leaving net estimated defl- ciency of $2.958, ,111.29. The appropriation for 1884 is $44. 4S9, 520, which makes the in- crease in the estimates for 1885, $5, 5,572, ,669.- 50, or 15.8 per cent. The percentage of in- crease asked in the Star service Is 6, in the steamboat service Al. in the railroad service 8 8. A year ago the President estimated that under the two cent letter rate which he recommended deficiency of three millions would occur, and now an estimate based on the best figures attainable shows that he wss but $41 ,0OO out of the way.
 The annual report of General Railway Superintendent Thompson shows the num- Der of postal clerks to be 8, ,555, an increase of 2S5. The number of pieces handled was :, ,981, 516 ,260 errors made 958, ,478, or one error to 4.I54 pieces correctly distributed. The annual miles of railroad service per- formed by clerks was s6, 18O, ,43O. Of the $500, GOO appropriated for special facilities, but $1S5, 12132 was expended and the bal ance returned into the treasury. During the year there were IA casualties in which one clerk was killed, 35 seriously injured, AZ slightly injured. He recommends that Con- gross sanction by statute law the civil service of the railway mail service so clerks cannot be removed except for cause.

Excepting in 1880, when there was n small
reaction from tue remarkable increase of
500, 900, 900 in 1879, the gain in tho aggregate
of minor exports has been uninterrupted, and
IN tho five years it has amounted to nearly
$4,000, 900, or about one-tSird. Even IN
1882, when the total exports declined
$3.50, zoo, 900, the loss was wholly in cotton,
breadstulls and provisions, while there was AZ
increase of p4,S00,00O in the minor exports.
Daring the Ii seal year which ended with last
June, although the total exports were nearly
10000, 900 below those of 1881, the value of
the minor exports was over 81 ,OOO, 900 larger
than in 1881 so that, had there not been IL fall
ing of IN the principal articles the value OF
domestic exports would have been larger than
IN any other fiscal year. Among the most i'm
portant items of increase, there WAS QUO of

TN clu ing locomotives, railroad cars and sew
ing machines), $1,000, 900 in living animals,
So, 400, 900 in wood and manufactures there
of, and 1865, 900 in tobacco. The decrease, in
comparison With the previous year, was in pork
and dairy products, and in petroleum.
These facts are of interest because they show
the steady and healthy growth OF the industries
If the country, outside of the influence of spec
ulatve markets upon prices. The speculation
itself had some excuse for time, it is true, in
the scarcity OF hogs caused 10y the great drouth
of 1881, but the world knows now that the
scarcity was greatly exaggerated and that
prices were held up too high and too long, and
the Lnid of Lard " went down With crash at
last because the unnatural prices could no
longer be sustained even by his daring and
capital. In IL different way but not less effect
lively, the control OF the petroleum market by
the rulers OF speculation checked exports of
that product. And, although the exports of
breadstuhs reached S20S, 100000 last year,
they would have been much larger had not
wild and reckless speculation maintained nm
reasonable prices long .fter il was certain that
part of the wheat crop of 1882 would remain
unsold. The country is carrying dead load
of 50,000,000 bushels of old wheat to-day, be-
cause of that speculation.
