THE annual report of the Commissioner
OF Customs shows that 1851 claims were
settled during the year. The business of
the Bureau resulted in receipts of $685.
2oI,9O7, and payments Of 27, ,125,992. The
Commissioner recommends the establish
ment of statistical division; modifica-
tion of the laws concerning the refunding
OF duties, and provision for fixed SAL
ary for chief customs officers.
The reports of the receipts and expendi.
lures of the Postal Department, shows
but nine States in which the operations OF
the department were conducted at a profit
during the year 18S4-S5. In the entire
country the expenditures exceeded the re-
ceipts 81 ,064 ,s19. As the deficit for the years
lsS3-A was only $3,77S, 1859, it can
be seen that there has been great increase
in the receipts during the past year. The
States in which the receipts exceeded the
expenditures were New Hampshire, Mas
sschusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New
York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Della
ware and Illinois, the excess being $685.

The review Of the consular reports
for 1884, made by the secretary OF
state to congress, contains much valu-
able information, showing the differ
enoe between the condition Of labor
here and abroad. Dundee, Scotland,
furnishes q fair illustration. In that
city there are from $4,000 to 10000
women and girls employed in the mills,
being linen and jute factories. The
time Of work Is iifty-six hours per
week. The average wages are per
week from $1.45 for the lowest class
OF female operatives to S4.06 for
double loom weavers, piece work. OF
the lao, 900 inhabitants Of Dundee lib,
600 live in one, two and three room
houses.-St. Louis Glo6e-D Democrat.

A Psalm OF Life.

There be but little in life to live for.
The world is a hollow mockery full OF
troubles and bad piano players.
We 60 forth in the morning full OF
hope and come home at night full of
bad whisky.
We dabble in politics and bet all
CIR wealth en- the leading d and
the other fellow getteth elected and
we are lett to mourn.
We run for Office and u friends
manage for us and spend u money,
and behold we cometh out badly
scooped and crushed financially.
We marry for wealth, and u girls
old man assigns.
We deny ourselves many things In
order to lay up some cash in the bank,
and the cashier fieeth unto Canada
And in an evil hour when we dream
notof 1t, the merchant ~pTssentetii q
bill for our wife's new bonnet. and the
farm and the stock goeth under mort
gage to pay it.
Woe unto man! OF how little con-
sequence is his Joy.
In infancy he Is full OF collie and
catnip, and in youth he goeth about
with a thorn in his heel.
In the evening of life he lieth down
full of rheumatism, aches and ante
bilious pills.
The places that once knew him
know him now only by the prommis-
o notes and accounts he has left
unpaid. And this is the end or
In youth he dances into the ring
eager to knock somebody out, but the
first thing he knoweth he is ornaments
ed with a black eye.
He cometh forth in fine raiment and
a standing collar, and at noon-time he
goeth about with the seat of his pants
patched with an old sock.
He carrieth a torch in the process
sion, and whoopeth it up for his party,
and behold the man who staid at home
is appointed to Office.
Such is the career Of ma
Loi in an hour when he dreameth
not of it, q breechy mule kicketh him
athwart the center, and he dieth.-

Randall directed the attention of the house to
10 the importance of proceeding with the ap-

10 have the desired effect, as the house refused
to take mp The public buildings bill, and pro-
ceaded NTH tlie navy appropriation bill. This
measure wss passed with very little discussion.

ion for the naval service for tho six months
