THE SCIENTIFIC BUREAUS.

A report is being prepared by the joint CON-
mission that has been for a long time engaged
in investigating the Government scientific bu-
reaus, with a view to their consolidation. The
report will recommend that the Coast Survey be

Senate by Dir. Morgan, of Alabama-the men,
bers of the commission were equally divided,
and the matter remains TO be settled on the
floor Of Congress. The commission is unani-
nous, however, in favor Of abolishing q Fort
Myer," as the signal service school of instruc-
ton on Arlington flights is called. The re-
port will restrict the Geological Survey to its
Legitimate sphere. 1t will be prohibited from
publishing elaborate and costly monographs, at
Government expense, as heretofore. These have
cost an average of not less than $3.50, 1000 year,
and are generally much more ornamental than
useful.

the minds of their fellows. Two or three Men,
bers have already been renominated, and are
thus far "out OF the woods" During the en-
suing two months many district conventions
will be held. and urgent political exigencies will
necessarily interfere more or less with the du-
ties Of legislation. As it is now the House
transacts much important business with not
more than third of its members present. I'M

BOUNTY DECISION.
Second Controller Maynard has rendered an
important decision under the additional bounty
act of July %, 1866 The decision is to the
effect that every soldier who enlisted after April
II, 1861. for period of not less than two years,
anu was uOuOEaDly uiocDarReu dlLer serving
two years for the purpose Of enabling him to
accepts commission, is entitled tothe additional
bounty OF $50 authorized by the 18th section Of
that act provided he was not entitled to any
greater bounty than 800 under the laws exist
ing at the date Of the passage of the act, and
provided his claim was fled in time.
The act of 1866 authorized the Secretary Of
War to prescribe rules and regulations for the
payment Of the bounty therein provided for,
and one of the rules prescribed by that officer
reads as follows:
The provisions of the act exclude from its benefits
those discharged during enlistment by way of favor
1t has hitherto been held that this rule pre-
cluded the payment of additional bounty to q
soldier discharged for promotion, even though
he had served for period exceeding two years
before being promoted. The Controller has de-
cided that soldiers who were discharged for
promotion were not discharged by way Of favor
within the meaning of the rule, and hence that
a soldier who was discharged for promotion,
after serving two years as an enlisted man. is
entitled to $50 bounty under said act, If all
other conditions imposed by the law are full
filed This decision is not applicable to any
claims for such additional bounty which were
not filed until after July l, 1880 the time for
filing such claims having expired by limitation
on that day.

his predecessor, much larger than the average
Chinaman. He dresses in gorgeous fabrics Of
the finest silk. in the nondeseript style of that
country, and looks as grand and awful as an
Oriental Prince. The subordinates dress with
similar richness, in blue, yellow, and white
All wear the queer little wooden-soIed shoes,
and have long cues that reach clear down to
their heels. These pleasant days they may be-
