For years past whenever we have thought upon
the natural advantages for trade and commerce
,ossessed by the historic old city Of Alexandria,
we have had an abiding faith that she would some
day arise to "newness of life" and that her pro-
puetic future would reflect disgrace upon her
historic past 4 peu and ink sketch af the glori-

tentiye audience. Some school business,
relative to the Richmond School Exposition,
having been transacted, the lecturer, J. B.

lar, yet thorough and exact account OF
Teeth" He skstched, first, the formation
from pulp of the teeth of all animals, de-
scribed and illustrated the various Kinds OF
teeth, the rodents, ruminants aud flesh
eating animals, &c. Then taking up the
subject of human teeth he exposed their
formation, development and structure and
gave succinct account OF the dis eases ana
misplacements to which they and their &C.
companying organs are subject. The lee
ture was well delivered, clear in every part,
and was illustrated by fossil sharks teeth
and a sharks jaw, showing four rows OF
teeth; carefully prepared skull from
Paris collection, showing the milk teeth OF
child all cut, and the later teeth, under
their roots, preparing to take their places /;
the lower jaws of some gnawing animals,
the teeth of the hypopotamus and horse ana
COW, as we'll as those of alligators, &c. All
the specimens used in the illustration were

animation. A vote Of thanks, by acclaua-
ton, was given Dr.. Hodgkin; and the au-
disnce separated, delighted with the even
inp's entertainment. The next institute

Tho House Committteo on CIa,m,

The committee on claims of the house
of representatives has had referred to it
for consideration LOIS claims during the
forty-eighth congress. The largest claim
was over 100000. The largest claim al
lowed was 100000. The smallest claim
was $50; it was rejected. These claims in
volved many millions of dollars. But
the number reported will not exceed $50.
If case appeared to to be without merit
it would be laid aside without action.
Therefore most Of the reports were favor
able. The great amount of work to be
performed caused the investigation OF the
member in charge OF claim to be tho
action of the committee in every case,
without exception. OF the claims intro
duced into the senate and there first con-
sidered, not over fifty have ever reached
the house committee, and Of these not
over six have been reported to the house.
1t would be liberal estimate to say that
fifty claims have been paid during the
forty-eighth congress. 1t is matter of
remark that most of the cases fayorably
reported by the house committee have
been slaughtered by the highly conserva-
tive senate committee, while most of its
favorable actions have been killed by the
house committee.

BALTIMORE STOCK MARKET
ENVELOPE CONTRACT FRAUDS
Postmaster General Hatton Explains
the Facts TO Congress.

the Facts TO Congress.
The postmaster general yesterday
transmitted to the house his reply to a
resolution calling for information with
regard to alleged great frauds"' in the
supply of official envelopes discovered
last summer. He says that the amounts
involved were greatly magnifed by the
newspaper publications. The actual
sums deducted from the contractors bills
were but 2,92S from the Plympton Com
pany and the Morgan Envelope Company
and 1898 from p. p. Kellogg & Co. The
postmaster general says there is no reason
to suppose, much loss to believe, that any
officer at the department was guilty Of
the slightest act of omission or commits
sion in connection with the supply Of the
defective envelopes under both the
contracts involved. 1t does appear
clearly, however. he further says
that the government agent and
inspector at Hartford, whose duty it was
to supervise the manufacture and issue
of all the envelopes in question, had
either failed to comprehend his instruc-
tions and the object Of his appointment,
or that he had wilfully disregarded
them. He failed TO discover the change
In the place of manufacture from Hol-
yoke, Mass, TO Windsor Locks, Conn,
until several months after the change had
occurred, and when the fact was revealed
to him he neglected not only to report it
to the department, but also to make such
n close. critical examination of the paper
as the change In itself should have sug-
geSted to him as necessary and proper.
Not tho slightest reason was discovered
to question tho integrity of his motives,
it appearing simply that his private af-
fairs were given by far the larger share
of his time during the hours usually de-
voted to business.
