Resignation of Solicitor General Bristow. Judge Phillips, of North Carolina, Iiis SuCCessors Spectal Despateh to The Chicago Tribune. . THE PEILADELPHIA POST OFFICE. ‘WasENGTON, D. C., Nov, 15.—Brief mention ‘was made in these despatches, last night, of the arrival of ahorde of Pennsylvania politicians, bere, with Governor-elect Hartranft at their heed, bent on the errand of securing the ap- pointment of the Philadelphis Postmastership for one of their own number. It was also then stated how the President had concluded to re- ceive them, and put in opposition to their claims the demand of the Civil Service rules and regulations for ihe promotion of the Deputy Postmaster to the vacaney. Thia svent came off 2s indicated, snd the cool man- ner in which the President received and dis- charged the delegation has beentho Senatorial topic here ever sinco, especially among the crowd of disappointed and grumbling Pennsyl- vanis politicians, headed by Senator Cameron and Governor Hartranft. At 11 o'clock this fore- noon this squad was shown into the Presidential presence, and, one after another, were introduced to his Excellency throngh the kind offices of Becretary Robeson. Mayor Btokely, of the city of Phxlmialyh_m&l acted as spokesman. He opened by reminding the President that Penn- sylvanie had proved the *bannerState” of the Usjor, first in repelling Liberalism in October, and, second, by giving him the largest popular m_adlonty that any man had ever been honored with. He continued that it had been thrown out that the Civil Service rules were to be inter- gnaad to granting the desired appointment to the elegation. He assured tho President that the Republican gmy in Pennsylvania did not have uny respect for these theoretical obstacles, and that his delegation fairly represented the State on that subject. The speech of the Mayor was continued in this strain, and then finally con- cluded by reminding tho President for the sec- ond rime how much he was indebted to Penn- Bylvanis, The President listened to this remark- able harangue with his msual com- {osure, stending _meanwhile with © one and leaning on his office table, and the other thrown behind him. When the Mayér finished the President raised his head, locked steadily at the office-seeking delegation for a momext, and spoke substantially as follows : GENTLEMEN : T do mot well sze how it would ba ‘proper for me o setaside the rules and regulations of the Civil Service. soms time sgo determined fo enforce them on every proper occasion, T think this to be suitable.

Silently and sadly, one by one, they took up their hats and withdrew. The line of march taken by the delegation led directly to Willard's Hofel, and there the discomfited crowd gathered together to discuss the Presi- dent'saction. Thesabler and wiser politicians, like Hiartranft, kept & dubious silence. The younger “members of this distinguished body ewore ter- rifically. Said Charlie O'Neil, member electfrom the Second Philadelphia District, * Hang the Civil Service. Why didn't Grant commence this business in the New York Custom House when Tom Murphy went out. Said a prominent mem- ber of the Legislature, “This is not what I worked Bo hard for in October, and you can bet that I wouldn't do it over again,” and go the re- ‘marks went around,only more peraonal, and with considerable more profanity intermized than will bear repetition. . The early train this evening bore the mejor g;)nrltwn of the delegation home, leaving only on Cameron behind. The Preeident. is com- ‘mended on all sides, to-night, outeide tka clique 0 signally diecomfited. THE EANAWHA CASAL. Beveral weeks since it was mentioned, in these despatohes, that the James River & Kanawha Canal Comp&:i? seconded by & strong Southern influence, wor d make an eppeal to Congress, this winter, for aid in behalf of that enter- tg‘l"l;!s. The = revival of this' scheme its origin in tbe complaints of the ‘West for increased traneportation facilities to the seaboard, This scheme came up just after the war, for Congreesional aid, but nodisposition was then showa to give the appropriation asked for. Itisnow thought that many votes from Western Congresemen can be obfained for aid this winter, The report of the Engineers’ De- artment, just submitted by tho officers engaged the survey.of this canal, shows thet a continuous water route from the Ohio to the James River is possible, and can be com- ploted at a comparatively small cost. On behalf of this enterprise the President was waited upon to-dey by Senator Lewis, Congressmen Sener end Smith, and the officers or the Kanawha Canal Company, with reference to Government sid. The President is reported as expressing himself in favor of the project, and promising to recommend action in’ favor of Government =id in his forthcoming annual message. BOLICITOR GENERAL. Judge Samuel J. Phillips, of Raleigh, N. C., heving signified his readiness o accept the ap- pointment of Solicitor General, was telegraphed to-day by the Attorney General to come to ‘Washington &s eoon as possible. General Bris- 0w accordingly tendered his resignation. The letter was as follows : Wasktiaon, Rov s o} 'ASEINGTON, Nov. 7 To ths Presiacnt : s e Ah Bk Pursuant to the purpose ‘communicated to you ver- ‘bally some months 8go, 1 fow tender my reaignation of " the office of _Solicitor General, to take effect upon the qualification of my successor.

A special from this city to the New York Even- ing Post says: ., A delegation of prominent Philadelphia pol- iticians, headed by Sonator Camerbn and Gov- ernor Hartranft, waited upon the President this morning to ask the appointment of George Trueman - hs Postmaster of Philadelphia. Mayor Stockley, in behalf of the delegation, pre- sented tho claims of Mr. Trueman for the posi- tion, seying that he had been very offective in Leeping the Republican party in Philadelphia together, which repulted in giving such a mag- nificen} victory on the 5th of November.” Tho President enid, in reply, that he had com- mitted himeelf to the policy of Civil Service Re- form, and_thet the Republican party, in its National Platform, had declared in its favor, and that whenever it wes poasible to securs & fioud appointment under the Civil Service rules, e felt it to be a public duty to make a selection accordingly. Asarule, he’ would endeavor to reward efficiency on the part of subordinates in positions of_public trust, but where it_should appear that e conld secure a better appointment by going outside of the Civil Bervice, then he should mnobt hesitato to _do so. In the present case, Mr. Fairman, the Deputy Postmaster, was highly rec- ommended. in_every way a8 qualified for the position, and it was not denied that by his ap- ointment the Government would gecure & aithful and efficient officer. Under these ecir- cumstances, therefore, he felt he could not do otherwise than to promote Mr. Fairman to the place to be made vacant by the resignation of General Bingham, but'would take into consider- ation all that had been emid in favor of Mr. Trueman, The delegation thereupon withdrew, aud will leave for home this afternoon, fully satisfied that Mr. Fairman will be appointeds METEOROLOGICAL DISCOVERY. Researches of the Signal Office have just been rewarded by s beautiful and highly important meteorological discovery. On the coast of Eng- land, from time immemorial, & phenomenon of the great November atmospheric wave has been the speculation of scientists and sea- men, but Sir John Herschel and others have augyoaad it was peculiar and confined to England nnd Western Eurué:s, which it reaches from the South Atlantic, and over which it rolls i long continued undulations from October to Janusary, constituting on important element in the phenomenal character of a European winter. On the 12th of November a similar atmos- heric wave began to break over the shores of regon and British Columbis, asis shown by the weather telegraphs, By the evening of the 13th, it had spread over nearly all of the [Pacific States and Territories, Utal, and Nevads, and, at midnight, wae pouring through the pasees of the Rocky Mountains, On Thursdsy, the 14th, it descend- ed npon Colorado, Nebraske, Kansas, and the Indian Territory. On Friday it extended in unbroken magnitude from Oregon and Washington Territory eastward, through the great trough, or depression, of the Rocky Mountain' bsckbone in Idsho aud _ Montana, and stretched thence to the Lower Missouri and Lower Mississippi Val- leys, and over the Western section of the Mex- ican Gulf. This discovery will enable the me- tearologists to anticipate by many days the approach of winter, as it advances from the Pacific coast eastward in the great current of westerly winds. It eerves to clear up the old miate of the American winter storms, showing that they originate in the Rocky Moun- tains, upon whose cold and loftiest summits, in Nevada, Utah, Colorado, and Southern Wyoming, ihe vapor-laden air of this wave, coming from over the warm Pacific, is now seen to be condepsed in the overwhelming snows.of the forty-first parallel. As this vast aerial wave is probably, like the English wave, continued insuc- cessive undulations for two or three months, it may essist in expleining the comparatively high temperature and light precipitation in winter along Puget's Sound and eastward. WALL STREET. Review of the Money, Bond, Gold, Stock, and Produce Markets, Special Deepateh to The Chicago Tribune. New Yomg, Nov. 15.—Financial advices from Lorndon indicate a constant improvement, par- ticularly in American securities. There will be considerable gold shipment to-morrow. One bouse will send £500,000, and another $300,000. The time for a panic as the result of recent causes has passed, although there is o general feeling of depression, partly on account of the disappointment at the non-fulfilment of the “Tressury promises on Monday and Tueaday. MONEZ. 'The money market is stringent, more particu- Jarly to merchants than to brokers, who borrow on call. The best mercantile paper which can be made does not sell under 1 per cent per month, and many good uames are unmarket- able at even higher fgures, While merchants are paying more for money than is for their 0od, the stock brokers, acting for speculative ealers who can afford to pay high rates, are accommodated at 7 per cent, gold, to 1-16 of 1per cent per day. The drain of specie to Europe snd the drain of currency to the interior, where the crop movements are in full operation, except the pork movement, which has not cul- minated, are calculated to kesp the money mar- ket at least firm for some time. Borrowers on cell to-day had o psy from 7 to 1-16 per diem. The banks are shipping currency to Boston, as well as to the Sonth and West. The Lake Shore Directors met in this city to- dsy. It is reported there will be a new issue of $6,000,000 ten-year sinking fund, 7 per cent currency bonds, for finishing the double track, laying steel rails, and proyiding new ea;x:;mem. rivate tolegrams from Washington this after- noon report that the Postmaster Generaland TWestern Unior Telegraph Company are at vari- ance. FOREION EXCHANGE was heavy. GOLD +was strong and higher, advancing from 118} to 1183 STOCES. The stock market was dull and irr ar to- day, with a tendency to lower prices, The fact that the steamer Arizons, of the Pacific Mail, ie overdue about ten days, has been used to depress that stock. GOVERNMENT BONDS opened higher but closed = fraction lower. The floating etock of bonds in the market is now very emall, the large dealers having few ; and the foreign bankers who trade a good deal between this and forcign markets have aleo a small amount. The large amount retired by the Treasury eince Grant became President, and the sbsorption by Europe during the same time, are the principal causes for thisscarcity. The bonds now held in this country are fully nine-tenths of them inthands where they cannot be disturbed. PRODUCE. Flour was quiet, but steady, with & fair in- uiry for shipping extras for futare.

Morton gll.ca and Hawley streets are yet choked with rick and stone; so, also, are Archand Otis strests. In Congress street are huge masses of broken grenite and bricks, in _&ome places four to five feet deep, and black- ened bales of wool and twisted iron and broken pillars. The tower of Old Trinity, a grand old ruin, still stands, with the rear gable and part of the side walls. The | front of the stores of Meccular & Williams, and Parker, on Washington street, are still up. The guarded district grows emaller and smaller each day. Yesterday the line waa considerably contracted, 2nd to-morrow a largs portion of the terrih:iry on Tuesday closed to the public will be opened. The Herald eays: The matter of laylng out the burnt districtupon a newplan is receiving the personal attention of s large number of citizens and city officials. There are two distinct prop- positions, ons of which will, no doubt, bo eventually adopted. The firat may be called the popular one, and is this : The passage of a law at a special session of the Legislature, authorizing the ity to take pos- Bseeion of the ‘whole territory ; to obliterate 2ll present streets and property lines, so far 28 necessary, and lay out the dis- trict upon an entirely new plan, with asystem of wide, ncraight streots, and sell the land border- ing opon them to those who wish to occupy it with buildings for business purposes. The 2d- vantages of this are readilyseen, but if it is done the whole present system of sewerage and pav- ing must be overthrown, and gas and water pipes, sidewalke, hydrants and cellar walls, a majorlty of which are yet intact and very vdunhle, must be torn np and rendered almost worthless. The coat would of course be enormous. The second plan is the congervative one, This contemplates the widening, straightening, and extending of streets, perbaps the discontinuance of small portions of some streets, and the general im- provement of present lines. This plan, although not effecting 8o radical and thorovgh an im- provement as the first, necesaitates far less of trouble in its accomplishment.

THE EECOND PATTI-MARIO CONCERT: Tke second Patti-Mario concert was giver: last evening ab the Union Park Congregational Church to s much larger audience than that which attended the first, notwithstanding the inclemency of the weather. It is due tothe ‘West Siders to say that, notwithstanding they have no publicconveyanceszt present, they have evinced a creditable determination fo go tocon- certs, even 1f they have to go omfoot. The zudience also was much more brilliant than that in the Bouth Division, and exceeded it in énthusizsm, and very decidedly so in the matter of encores, They are good encorers west of the the river. Almoat everything on the programme was encored, and although the practice was car- ried, as it generally is, to a ridiculous oxtent, still the heartiness of the applause and the prevailing enthusiasm had & very percepti- ble effect upon the artists, who, on the evening previous, had met with s very respectful degree of coldness. The result was, that the West Siders got much the best concert of the two, The programme wes an admirable one, and opened with the andante movement from the euzer sonata of Beethoven, for violin and pizno, played by Carreno and Sauret in excellent style. ~ Thebeautiful movement was interpreted with great freedom, althoughits effect was some- what marred by an unexpected accompaniment of Bm%ping steam-pipesin the atiditoriam, which made both the artists restless and neryous. Sauret's playing of the “Di Tanti Palpiti” was mearked by & delicious quality of tone, and the most admirable mastery of technique. Few violinists who have ever played here have com- bined these two features in such perfection. He received a hearty ercore, to whichhe replied ‘with & transcription from * Lucis,” in which the violin fairly sang the melodies, ~Patti sang in the first part the familiar *Bolero” - from the ‘Sicilian Vespers,” and in the second part, the equally familiar *Swiss Echo Song," end, of = course, carried oft her customary” encores. To the first she replied with an ex%uiaite French song, * Le Chanson de D'Abeille,” by Masse, from * Y:a Reine Topaze,” which was admirably adapted to her voice. Car- reno pladyad the Liszt fantasia on “ Rigoletto” very ashingly, and with & splendid firu ing of octaves. She plays these ighly ~ornamented tranecripts with an irre- sistible fervor and grace, and without those faults which mark her style in slower movements. Miss Cary was handsomely received and sang with her customary good taste and feeling. What is eaid once of Mario must be always said of him, and yet he met with a cor- dial eeting, ond carried off his share of the encores. Altogether, the con- cert was more enjoyable than the first one, part- 1y becanse the programme was a_better one, and artly because there was a more appreciative au- ience in attendance. And all this, without bf(i‘ng up to the average of the Patti concerts of o ‘The last concert will be given this afternoon at the Michigan Avenne Baptist Church, and as the seats are already going off very rapidly, a large house may be anticipated.
