The annual report Of Intendant Stoutenberg
OF the Washington asylum, states that 16,O35
days labor were expended by the male prison
ers in grading Pennsylvania avenue and q

trlct OF $25,00T. Produce amounting to
$3,2S1. 3S was raised In the workhouse grounds
by the labor OF the inmates. The new hospital
The report gives an account OF the improve
ments made during the year.
The female inmates OF the asylum will be

zine No. reconstructed) in December. The
report recommends q covered way to magazine

shop, and the establishment Of some suitable
employment for the rapidly Increasing number
$4,000 expended for this purpose would be a
profitable Investment He also recommends

THE EXCITEMENT AMONG FRENCH CANADIANu
ALLAYED-EU LOGGING REL.
QUEBEC, Nov. 10.-The anxiety which has
prevailed here for some days among the
Professionalism residents over the fate OF Riel
was somewhat rela xed on the receipt of the news
that another respite had been granted him. The
general opinion now prevails that Riel will
ultimately escape the galows. Nearly all the
French-C Canadian papers thinking that last
night would be the last Riel would spend on
earth came out in a strong culogyof his bravery
and heroism i'm the past, and urging him not TO
finch even on the scaffold. They eNborted him
"to go and meet the victims of s31, and tell
them that he, Riel, had died happily for their
liberty they had DONE"

NOT UNFAVoRABLY AFFECTED BY HIS CAM
PAIGN WORK IN SCOTLAND.

PAIGN WORK IN SCOTLAND.
EDINBURGH, Nov. 1O.-Mr. Gladstone's
health has not been affected i'm the least by his
eXertions yesterday. He slept soundiy last
night and not particle OF his hoarseness re-
appeared to-day. He made no political speech
to-day, but has taken considerable walking ex.
ercise in Dalmeny park.
The Times considers that Mr.. Gladstone's
Irish argument Tor the need OF a liberal major.
ity in parliament is weak. He is willing 10 go
many lengths, except TO the disunion of Ireland
and England. Therefore IL is immaterial
whether the liberals or the conservatives deal
with the question, as neither party can go FUR
ther. All will do their utmost TO save the unity
of the empire. Liberal unity. covert ng the dis
sension of the wings and radicals on church,
Irish and other questions, must collapse under
the stress of events and leave the nation In the
gravest difficulties.

Post Offices Of the Country.
COL. STEVENSON SUMS UP THE WORK OF MAX
ING CHANGES.


COL. STEVENSON SUMS UP THE WORK OF MAX
ING CHANGES.
The report of COL A. E. Stevenson, the
First Assistant Postmaster General, has
been submitted, and states that dur
ing the year 2, 121 post offices were established,
and the number discontinued $50, making
the total number 51,252 in the coun-
try, large increase over the offices established
in the previous year. The whole number of ap-
pointments made during the year was IL ,2O3,
made up as follows: On designations ana COM
missions expired, 6, 2O4; removals and suspen-
sions, SO: changes OF names and sites, 2O7;
deaths OF pOstmasters, 412; establishment Of
new offices, 2,221. The greatest increase in the
number of new offices was 100 in Virginia.
the increase In Dakota was II, and in Missis-
The report states that the number OF changes
in the postmasters during the year was less
in the number of cases acted upon during the
year, as compared with the preceding year, was
due to the fact that very few changes were
made prior to March 4th.
EXTENSION OF THE FREE DELIVERY SYSTEM
RECOMMENDED.
The report states that the extension of the
free delivery system to other places than those
with population of 10000 Or where the gross
receipts OF the Office amount to $4,000 will re-
Quire new legislation. There is a surplus of re-
celpts over expenditures for this service of
$I9,O47. Col Stevenson recommends that
Congress authorize the extension of this system
to places of 10000 inhabitants or having a
gross revenue of 100000.
AS n result of the annual adjustment of sala-
ries fourteen offices were added to the presiden-
tial list and ia offices were relegated to the
fourth class. The receipts OF the presidential
offices, says the report, fuctuates with the con-
dition OF the business OF the country, and the
indications now point to the fact that the coun-
try is entering upon an era of prosperity and
plenty. Not less than $3,SOO,OOO will be re-
CURED 10 pay the salaries Oi presidential post
masters during the coming year, and the total
estimate, including clerk hire, is $0,5S7 900.
The recommendation is made that Congress
provide for the paymentof the rent of buildings
for offices OF the third class aud providing the
light, fuel and other expenses.
POSTAL ACCOMMODATIONS IN THIS CITY.
COL Stevenson states that Congress failed to
provide for the rent for the East Capitol station
and consequently since July LIST last the rent,
$50 per month, has not been paid. and he re-
cosnmends that an appropriation be made for
tnat purpose, and also for the next year. He
also states that owing to the increase IN busi.
