FROM WASHINGTON CITY.
Annual Report of the Second Assistant
Postmaster-General for the Year
Ending June 30.
Ex-Governor Geary of Iowa has form
ally aesnmed the duties of Assistant
Secretary of the Treasury. The Presi
dent delegates to bim the power to sign
treasury warrants and act as Secretary
of the Treasury in certain contingencies.
Superintendent of Census Porter in
his annual report strongly urges that
the census office be made a permanent
bureau of the Interior Department.
Regarding the cost of taking the elev
enth census, he savs that the disburse
ments up to June 30, 18!2, mounted to
$8,203,603, and of tbe thirteen volumes
in which results have been embodied
there are now in the hands of the print
er eight quarto volumes, but the infinite
detail of the office work makes it impos
sible to foretell the date of tbe comple
tion of the whole work.
The annual report of Second Assistant
Postmaster-General Bell for tbe year
ending June 30 shows the total cost of
the inland mail service was $41,335,372:
foreign mail service, $306,145. Compared
with last year, there was an increase in
the star service of 1,215 routes, 5,877
miles in length of route and $198,061 in
annual expenditure. Tbe mail messen
ger service shows an increase of 204
routes, 5,058 miles in length and $177,
401 in cost. Tbe railway postoffice clerks
were increased 385 and $411,610 in ex
penditure. Special facilities on the trunk
lines showed a decrease in cost of $98,
807. The annual report of Fourth Assistant
Postmaster-General Kathbone shows
4,105 new poetoffices were established
during the year, a greater nnmber than
any previous year except 10 ', when it
was 4.427. The year closed with 67,119
postoffices in tbe United States. The
largest increase in number of new post
offices is in the Southern States. Kith-
bone suggests an amendment to the law,
making tbe mailing of green goods cir
culars a continuing offense from the time
of mailing to the place of destination,
so that the prosecution can take p are at
either point. A similar enactment in
regard to lotteries has about swept them
oat of existence in two years, snd he be
lt-res the same effect would follow in
the ca?es of green-gxxie swindle?.
The Navy Department will soon send
special communication to Congress in
conntion wnh the transportation of
nlieted men from New lork to Ban
Francisco. The naval ffice 1 are said
be mad all over at the Pacific Mail
Steamship Company, owing to their in-
mlity to get the company to transport
their sailors. As the T-easury Depart
ment has ruled against sending men
avroes the continent by rail, the Navy
Department is greatly embarrassed in
its tffoits to supply men for the vessels
on tbe Pacific Coast. Recently the de
partment desired to send 10J men to
rian francipco lor the new coast oe reuse
vessel Monterey. The company in
formed the department that they could
not tike tbe men for several weeks yet.
The department has determined to ask
Congress for authority to transport its
men across the continent by rati.
The monthly weUher-crop ballet in
shows that November was slightly
older than usual in the greater portion
of the country east of the R cky Moun
tains, with a deficiency in temperature
generally throughout the northern
Stales and as far sooth as North C tro-
iina. There was more than the usual
amount of rain in the Middle Atlantic
States. 8 m. hern New England, tbe
northern port on of the Gnlf states,
Tennessee. Eastern Texas, Illinois, la
diana. Michigan aud California. The
unusually heavy rains in the North pa
cific States resulted in great loss to the
railroad and atrieu turat interests The
weather has been favorab e throughout
the winter wheat reg on, and the recent
rains doubtless benefited great'y the
ate-sown wheat, but the ground con'
tinues very hard throughout the Bpring
wheat States, uotton picxing is aooiu
completed. Some slight damage was
done to the late cotton cen'rai states dv
heavy rains. The weather in Southern
California was favorable, and the re-
noits show that the orange crop is ripe'i
ng as well as could be desired, the Irmt
coloring last.

sented to send to the World's Fair what
will be one of the most remarkable and
attractive features to be seen at Chicago
next vf ar. It will consist of a collection

the Emperor William; hh father, the
Emperor Frederick, and himself from
their fellow-sovereigns in Europe, as
well as from the people of Germany.
