The gasworks is again the subject OF dis
cussion by the city council, inasmuch as an
appropriation of 81 900 Is asked by the gas
light committee to put repairs on the
works, and urged upon the ground Of i'm.
mediate necessity. The patrons are de
manding better gas or cheaper rates, and
the committee, in order to give value re.
ceived, have had the works Thoroughly In
epected, and find that something must be
done at once or the chances are that be-
fore the setting OF many suns the entire
gas supply will be shut of. The revenus
derived from the works by the city for the
last ten years aggregate Sll0,O 600, when
includes the allowance for street lighting,
while the actual money turned fnto the
treasury during that time exceeds S55, 900.

the ill. The attention OF Congress. had
been called to the matter on account OF the
complaints which had come to IL that the
unnecessarily large fee which was required
for p6 sspoits was a great burden, especially
on those PERI ons who could Ill afford to
tear II. The fee OF 81 was sufficient TO
cover all expenses attending the granting
OF passport, and n paper attesting OF q
mans citizenship was the last thing that
should bring revenue into the treasury.
The bill was passed.
TIE next bill called up was one appro.
priatiDg So, ,000 to enable ,he President to
ixtepd to the Inhabitants Of Tanegashima,
Japan, suitable recognition OF the hu-
name treatment OF the survivors Of the
crew Of the American bark Cashmerl.
After brief statement by Mr. Morrow,
OF California, OF the circumstances OF the
ca, e and Of the unusual kindness wAich has
been accorded to the shipwrecked sailors,
the bill was passed.
Several private bills were passed, and one
measure; referring to the court OF claims
the claim Of Hannah j. Jones, executrlx
Of Emanuel Jones, gave rise to considerable
discussion.
The facts In the case are that during the
war Emanuel Jones, British subject, re.
siding In Mobile, purchased, with confed-
crate money, number OF bales OF cotton.
In April, 1865, the federal army took pos
session Of Mobile, and guard having been
placed around the warehouse In which the
| cotton was stored, Jones was denied adj.
mission thereto. In August following the
warehouse wss burned down and the cotton
destroyed. The claim is for the value Of
cotton so destroyed.
bert, OF Alabama, advocated the measure
as one Of common justice. BY the act of
the United States government Jones was
| deprived Of bis power to chip his cotton or
| to insure 1t, and bis executrix should have
an opportunity to appear before thn court
OF claims and present the facts upous
which he based his claim for relief.
Mr.. Hopkine, OF Illinois, opposed the
bill, and stated that he would rather pay
the claim Of brave confederate soldier
than that OF Snylock, who took ad-
vantage OF the misfortunes OF the people
among whom he lived.
Mr.. Bland, Of Missouri, thought that the
claimant had no right to come before Con-
| gress for relief. The proper way was I
the claimant to appeal to the British gov.
ernment, which would bring the matter to
the attenti, OF the State Department II
there was any equity In 1t,
Mr.. Hooker stated that Mr.. Jones had not
gone south to take advantage Of the mis-.
fortunes Of the people, but had lived there
before tho breaking out Of the war.
| Mr.. Herbert said that the United States
had provided for the payment Of claims OF
a similar nature when demanded by the
British government; and the question now
| pr,seuted was whether the United States
would not do justice to a claimant unlese
the British government was behind him to
enforce bis decree.
| Mr.. Allen, Of Mississippi, inquired
whether Mr.. Jones aided either side during
the rebellion.
| Mr.. Hooker replied that he did not
| Mr.. Allen. Then that settles the bill for
me. Laughter
| Mr. Hopkins moved to lay the bill on the
table.
Pending action on The motion the House,
at $50, adjourned.

AFTER SEED DEALERS
Who Are Trying to Eyade the Highe
Postage Rates.

Who Are Trying to Eyade the Higher
Postage Rates.
In a recent circular the Postmaster Gen
eral says that as certain dealers In the
United States are shipping their goods to
agents In Canada to be mailed there adj
dressed to pertops in this country, with the
intent to eyade the higher rate of postage
applicable to said goods In the domestic
mails Of the United States, the postmasters
are directed to rate up postage on said
packages mailed and addressed for delivery
in this country which bear indications
upon their covers that they were sent by
dealers In the Uuited States or their agents
In Canada.
This ruling Is directed especially against
seed dealers who have eudeavored to avail
themselves Of the lower rate OF postage
under the recent postal treaty, as compared
with the merchandise rate In the United
States.
