WASHINGTON, March 8. There will
be many small claims made for DAM
ages done by some of the Pennsylvania
troops during the Inauguration season.
Piernen, whose stands were raided;
house owners, whose windows were
broken; decorators, whose materials
We're destroyed or scattered, and others
who suffered by the rough play of a
looking around to find out who will NY
the damages. Some have suggested
that these persons be reimbursed out of
the inaugural surplus, but it is not
likely such a thing will be done. Four
years ago when similar damage was
done, the state of, Pennsylvania sent
officers here to determine aud pay the
damages and it is probable the same
course win be pursued this year.

-We would call the attention of tha D,


 We would call the attention of the pub. lie to the well known business house of Alfred Williams, Nos. fl and 45 Pratt-st., Hartford, Conn.,, where everything in the line of furs may be found to keep one comfortable through the winter months. It is the only house in the state devoted wholly to the manufacture of furs, wholesale and retail; and their large sales attest to the uncommon degree of favor with which their goods are received. To any one desiring goods in their line, it would be worth their while to give them call, as they keep constantly on hand furs of every kind and quality to suit all tastes and purses. Gar ments of seal are speciality, and are made of the finest skin which the market affords. No more appropriate gift can be made during the coming holiday season from husband to wife or from sweetheart to his best gill than an ulster or jacket of Alaska seal, or a cape of eny of the pretty furs of which this house has large supply.

WHILE feeling that New York is the best place for the worlds fair in 1892, and the most likely to get it, New England is not go- ing to feel so badly disappointed if Chicago gets it. It is promised that railroad fares will be put so low that everybody will be able to afford the trip, and there is less of the commonplace in trip to the young giant city of the west, that so many of us have never visited. Then there is reluctance to put the financial control of so big an under taking into hands of the class of men who control the government of New York city. Many of it's officials have been sent into exile or to state prison, but there are more of the same sort ready to step into the offices, and who do step into them, and it is morally cer- tain that these men are looking upon the coming exhibition as full of opportunities for steals. Perhaps this is why in that city ot wealth untold it is getting more and more difficult to raise money for public benefits ol improvements, the Grant monument, and now the Columbian quadrennial, being instances though wealthy men of the city pour out money like water in response to appeals fol charity or patriotism coming from other quarters, where it is certain that New Yorl officials will not have the lingering of the money. The city is not governed by it's tax payers nor by it's best class of citizens. Few cities are, but the metropolis most notably ii mi

PosTMAsTER-GENERAL WANANdAKER's report is one of the best ever put out by the head of government department in this country and proves the wisdom of selecting one of the best business men of the country to man. age this great department of business. Like the late Gov. Jewell, the present postmaster general believes in running government busi- ness on business principles. The report says ::
 To the postmaster general of the United States is committed the management of the largest business concern in the world, con- sisting of central establishment with almost 6O,OOO branches, and employing over 150, GOO people. It's agents embrace one-haf of the civil list. It maintains communication be- tween the near and the remote places of the country with frequency, celerity, and securi- ty. The number and value of it's messages are such that the imagination can scarcely form a conception of them. The capital in use in carrying on this vast business was last year $1 to each man, woman, and child in the United States. Nevertheless, the postal service is not money making enterprise. It is not intended to be. It is a mistake to ex- pect it to be sef-sustaining until it is fully perfected.
 The post-ofice is the visible form of the federal government to every community and 70 every clt1Zen. It's hand IS the only one that touches the local life, the social interests and business concern of every neighborhood. It brings the government to every door in the land and makes it the ready and faithful servitor of every interest of commerce and so- ciety. The people, from whom alone this all- Pervading agency springs into action, and by whose encouragement alone it can supply their jealous needs, simply want the system administered with such efficiency and econo- my that it shall offer them more and more &C., commodations and tax them less and less The only method can suggest by which all their desires may be gratifed, is not merely to talk about the application of business prin- ciples to the department; it is really to ap- ply them. It is not to work in poor quarters i; it is not to transport mails afoot when they should go in railroad trains; it is not to tol- crate disloyal ofQist1ess employees if better ones can be had it is not, finally, to keep unwillingly abreast of the times It is always to lead the times.
 In twenty years the transactions of the post office department have doubled. In ten years more, by all the laws of growth, they will nearly have doubled again. To-day's work, the routine forms, the methods of operation, the relations of clerks and officials are almost as crude as they were in the beginning. The point of the great question which continually forces itself forward is, how long this out grown system shall continue as it is.

JOHN Snoorr, cashier of the sergeant-at- arms of the national house of representatives. has run away with nearly $1OO, 900 belonging to members. The amount will probably be made good to the losers by the government, and congress will investigate, and by the time thematter is finished from one-eighth to 8 quarter of million dollars will be the price of continuing in office a man known to be in all ways disreputable and scandalous. Some of the amount will be made up by his bonds man
