THE PUBLIC PRINTERS STATEMENT.
The speaker pro tenn laid before the
house letter from the public printer in
response to a resolution calling on him for
information as to discharges made by him.
The public printer makes statement in
regard to these discharges, justifying and
explaining them, defends the administra-
ton of his office and emphatically denies
the charge that the congressional work of
the office was greatly in arrears. Mr.. Cutch-
con OF Mississippi said he was the author
OF the resolution to which the letter read
was an answer. He had been impelled to
draw up the resolution by the story of a
soldier who mad been discharged with
sixty other employees from the printing
office in the middle of the winter without
cause, at time too when the printing
ordered by congress was greatly in arrears.
Several democrats inquired the name of
the soldier to whom Mr.. Cutcheon referred,
but that gentleman declined to reveal it at
present. Mr.. Henderson of Iowa declared
his utter disbelief in the statement of the
public printer that there were more union
soldiers employed at the printing Office to-
day than had ever been employed at any
previous period. He denied the statement
as false. The widow of soldier had called
upon him with her two children. The son,
young man, had been an employe of the
printing Office, but had been dropped from
the rolls and his place filled from that
great fountain of democratic officials, Bal
timore. The young lady had been en-
ployed in the treasury department, but had
been discharged about the same time as
her brother. The gentleman who dis
charged her told her she had no recommen-
dation but her efficiency, which was indis-
putable, but her position was wanted for q
man who could help the democratic party.
These two children, the support of their
mother, were left without means of support
in the dead Of winter.

The Senate.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.-In the senate to-
day Mr.. Sawyer, from tile postoffice COM
mirtee, reported back adversely the propo-
sition to reduce letter postage to cent
The postOffice department was still run
ming behind and it was thought better to
wait until it was self supporting before any
further reduction was attempted. Mr..
Hoar desired to have put on record his be-
lief that it was the duty of the government
and for the interest of the people to have
postage reduced to l cent. He believed
that the postof1ice department would rap
idly become self sustaining at that rate
but even it not, the direct benefit in bind
ing the country closer together would more
than compensate for any deficit. Mr. Beck
said he could not understand how the gov
ernment could afford to carry bonnets and
harness and merchandise all over the coln-
try for a cent an ounce and not be able to
carry the intelligence of the people at the
same rate. MI. Platt expressed his dissent
from the proposition that the rate of post
age ought to be considered ut all with ref
erence to the question of whether the post
not The people desired the best and
cheapest postal service and did not insist
upon the department being sulf sustaining.
Mr.. Salisbury, q member OF the postoffice
committee, said that the committee was
not prepared to advise the redu cti on
letter postage, because it would involve a
very considerable amount which would
have to be appropriated by congress to
sustain the postoffice department. All
schemes to have money taken out of the
treasury were simply intended as
arguments against the reduction of
tariff duties. Mr.. Beck said that when
merchandise was carried through the
mails at cent all ounce there was no rea-
son why letters should not be carried at
the same rate.
Mr.. Plumb offered a resolution instruct
ing the postoffice committee to inquire into
the cause of the inefficient mode of service,
especially in the west and south, and pre-
sented newspaper extracts and letters to
show the "democratized" condition of the
stupid attempt to make record of econ
ony. The resolution went over.
Mr. Frye offered resolution which was
adopted, calling Oh the secretary of the
treasury for information touching on the
transportation Of goods across the bound
ary line between the United States and
Canada in bond or otherwise and as to
what methods are taken to protect the rev.
enue derived from bonded goods passing
the frontier both ways and as to enforcing
the second clause OF the sixth section of
the Interstate commerce law. Adjourned.

Losses I'm the American Civil War.

Investigations recently made in the
War Department at Washington show
that the late American Civil War was,
relatively, the most sanguinary on
record. Though the Federal and Con-
federate returns are not altogether ex-
act, the War Office is able to give a
close approximate estimate of the
killed, wounded and missing in the
Federal forces. According to the
statistics, 297,S25 Union soldiers lie
buried in the various national ceme-
teries. Including losses, of which no
account can be taken, the war cost the
North 100000 lives, or more than one
in nine of all who entered the service.
The two opposing armies met in
over 1000 slirmishes and battles. In
las of these conflicts the loss on the
Federal side was upwards of 500 men
and in at least ten battles more than
1O, 900 men were reported lost on each
side. The combined losses Of the
Federal and Confederate forces in kill
ed, wounded and missing in the follow
ing engagements were:-Shiloh a.
600; Antietam, $4,000; Stone River,
$4,000; Charlottesville, $4,000; Get
tysburg, $4,000; Chickamaugua, 49,
900; McClellan's Peninsula Campaign,
$4,000; Grants Peninsula Campaign,
$780, 900; Sherman's Campaign. 125,=
900. -,
Waterloo was one of the most des-
perate and bloody fields chronicled in
European history, yet Wellington''s
casualties were less than II per cents
while during the American War;8he
loss at Murfreesborough, Atlantis
Chickamuagua, Gettysburg and other
place frequently reached and some
time exceeded 40 per cent, and the
average of killed and wounded on one
side or the other was 80 per cent.
If the figures of the Confederate
losses could he accurately ascertained,
the total deaths in the late war would
probably surpass 100000. II is not
little curious that the losses and cap
tured men of the Federals, who were
victorious in the struggle, almost
eoualed the whole of the Confederate
forces.
