a wcll-kuown ciyil-scryice rcformcr,
dining with a friend here in Washing
ton last night expressed his opinion
that the President would not recon
struct the ivil.Scrvicc Commission
until after the 3d Of November This
opinion was expressed in such q man
ncr as tolcad his hearers to believe
that he knew what he was talking
about. lie did not seem to wish to
create the impression that the recon
struction would then be made TO serve
any particular political end, or that it
was now being delayed for political
reasons, and yet he left the door open
for the conjecture that the President
might possibly be influenced in his
selections by the result of the present
campaign in New York
Around the same table the subject
was further discussed, and the addi-
iional statement was forthcoming that
the resignation of Commissioner Tho
man had been at the disposal of the
President for some time, and that the
old commission would have been en-
tirely though gracefully rclogacd to
private life very soon after the famous
correspondence between the President
and Commissioner Eaton was made
public had not the President desired TO
have some of its component parts hold
together until he saw his way clear to
frame an entirely new one.
This he is said to be unprepared to
do until the people of his own State
shall have given some unmistaliable
expression of the heartines5 of the sup
port they are willing to accord him in
his present views on the subject,

EDITOR CRITIC; / find by your Saturday

claim has been disallowed by the Acting
Second Auditor. My claim was not en-

About the only real cause for appre-
hcnsion that there will be war in Eu-
rope, growing out of the Roumelian
business, is the attitude of the little
ten-by-one Kingdoms adjacent to Tur-
key. Prince Alexander Of Bulgaria
having by the aid of Russia secured the
Roumclan slice, Greece and Servia
are passing up their plates for some of
the fowl with stulling. Scrvia is
restless and intends to make an attempt
10 extend her boundary southwark,
that she may acquire territory as an
offset to Bulgaria's acquisition. And
Greece also comes in with demand for
increased domain.
In the meanwhile Turkey IS doing
her best to get an army modified, not,
il is thought, with so much Of an idea
Of regaining Roumelia rs to prevent
further encroachmcnts upon her terri
tory, Scrvia and Greece amount to
very little as powers, and will hardly
be able to make much OF disturbance,
Another cause for European un.
easiness is the fact that Prince Bis
marck is advising Turkey and seems
TO be cndeayoring to give her some of
his backbone, Such is not known to
be the fact, but wherever Bismarck ap-
pears, especially when it is known ex-
actly what he is after European nations
as rule have n cold shiycr running
down The small of their backs. While
the cable is telling US daily about the
warlike preparations in the East it is
hardly probable that the misunderstood
ing will result in war The Turk
is by no means anxious TO hasten his
inevitable departure from Europe.

it hopes to be able to do some better

are well situated, not very far from the

which will probably be done soon, they
will compare favorably with any around
here.
After the rain of Wednesday evening
the weather turned much cooler aud
there was considerable frost yesterday

former is suffering from his old wound.
Reports made from the different buSi-
nesses of the city showed an excited
feeling on account Of the Afghanistan
war news. Breadstuffs during the day
had taken decided upward tendency.
The opinion generally expressed was
that the war will be of no real benefit
to this country unless it becomes one
that summons all the resources Of Great
Britain and Russia and is long pro-
tracted.
A communication from the secretary
was read, and in response thereto the
Board resolved to lay the foundation Of
business-men's library, to which end
they made an initiatory appropriation.
The secretary was requested to COM
municate with the authorities at Wash

it is not possible to secure a daily
weather report giving more exactly the
indications for the tobacco regions Of
Virginia and North Carolina.
The Union depot project was reported
to be in fair way Of accomplishment.

That is, so to speak, the business part
Of the system. There are many other
good results, Of course, attained by us,
but this is the one important object
Of our corporate existence but in
order to keep alive and vigorous the
business feature Of our order, we rely
upon the cohesive effect Of great fra
ternity united by fraternL sentiments
and good fellowship"
He urged upon the Grand Councils
their duties in endeayoring to spread
the order and to build up and maintain
afraternal sentiment, and recommended
the appropriation Of enough funds to
allow the grand officers to visit the
subordinate councils Of the State, as a
means Of increasing the order and ex-
tending its benefits.
This was also recommended in the
report Of the Grand Secretary, and a
sufficient appropriation was made by
the Grand Council for that purpose.
The following standing committees
were appointed by the Grand Regent !:
Finance: William L. Allen, Rich
mond; II. F. w. Southern, Richmond /;
and William Turnbull, Petersburg.
Laws and Appeals W. L. Hill,
Richmond; W. +. Irvine, Norfolk; and
F. I. Sutton, Richmond.
The Grand Council was well attend
ed, and the proceedings were in every
respect harmonious and pleasant.
The business Of the session having
been completed at about l o'clock. the
Grand Council was closed in due form,
and will meet in Richmond again on the
second Wednesday in April, 1887.
