C. Johnson left for Meadville, Pa, this morning.

Filley pos'm 1s. ter at St. Louis, as announced in Tag Stak of yesterday. THE DiscHARGEs of fifty-six persons in the Land office were made out at the Interior de partment to-day. INTERNAL REVENUE COLLECTIONS. — The Commissioner of Internal Revenue reports to the Secretary of the Treasury that the collec- tions of internal revenue tax for the fiseal yearended June 30, 1575, accounted for, we: $108,717, 457: During the fiseal year ei colleetions were 118,\" remained unaecounte: AD pears that during the two last fiscal years the sum of $223,712,622 has been collecied and ac- counted for and the sum of $11,605 has been collected and not accounted for. Legal pro- ‘ings for the recovery of these diserevan- cies have been provided » and no luss to the United Siates is anticipated. Eaci of the Gp aking colnet has been removed froin office. Tue TRADE DOLLaR.—Secretary Sherman has written a letter toa gentleman in Mans- field, Ohio, defiuing the status and explaiuiag the non legal-tender character of the trade dollar. An article in Tue Star last Tuesday substantially covered the same Pea as this letter, and ciied the same acts of Congress. THE MONEY OxDER Orrice, P. O. D., fur- nishes another straw indicating the return of good times. The business of the office is af- feeted by the condition of business. In 1877 Was less than in 1876. The business for 187 shows, on the other hand, a great improve- ment. The total value of orders issued for the fiseal year is $33.4%),061.73 against $74, 563 68 for the last fixeal year.

AWARD OF ConTRACT.—In considering the bids for furnishing marble for the Memphis eustom house the S-cretary of the Treasury has decided to award tLe contract to Burns & Berner, of this city. The lowest bi Hi tisfac' subjee’, the contract having previous’ awarded to Mr. Snyder, of St. Louis. id the Tennessee delegation ex; for a Tennessce proved unsu -eas3 ful they are now disposed to see whut objec tioLs they ¢an find to the preseut award. AN Oversicnt.—The republicans of the Martinsburg (W. Va.) district while busy ski: mishing around the departments in search ofa candidate for Congress overlooked the claims of Silas, son of Senator Patterson, of South Carolina, who says that though he doesn’t hold a government position, he would have run and made a good fight, and been elected, provided somebody put upthe money. REPRESENTATIVE CAMPBELL, of Pennsylva- nia, isin the ci'y. He predicts that the power of the nationals,'he new party that has gained reund so rapidly in that state,is on the wane. He has been reuominated, and has no doubt o are-election. The democrats and nationals are trying to get up a fusion ticket in his dis- trict to defeat him. SENATOR CONOVER says the denial of his intention to run for Congress in Florida is a story gotten up inthis city. He does intead to run, and speaks hopetully in reference to his chances intherace. The district in which he will make his fight is the district now rep- resented by Mr. Davidson. AN IMAGINATIVE TREASURY CLERE.—A fow evenings since a number of newspaper corre- spondents and reporters in this city received the following note: “Dear Sir:—I arrived in the city last night and overheard the conten's of the within discussed by certain high offi- cials, which I determined to apprise you of. | Please, under no circumstances, state the. source from whom you obtain the same. Vei respectfully, J. H. Livingstone, of New Yor! city.” “contents of the within” were as follow: it is rumored to-night, upon what is deemed trustworthy authority, that Secretary Sherman designs removing several prominent Treasury officials, the most conspicuous change being that of Treasurer Gilfillan. It is said that Sherman has at last persuaded the President that none but active politicians should be appointed to fill the leading posi- tions, and hereafter the Treasury department will render good service to the republican cause, It is not known who has been selected £8 Gilfillan’s successor, but Judge Ray, late counsel of the Louisiana re a will Sueceed Solicitor Raynor, and G. Wiley Wells will step into the shoes of Internal Revenue Commissioner Raum. Shermanis said to be thoroughly convinced that the President's civil service order is a ruinous fraud; and he attributes the unfavorable prospects of the Peg A the intermeddiing of men like Schurz and Evarts, whose sole ambition has been to gratify J epsee grievances against old political oes The decks will soon be cleared, and the oe py guns will once more belch forth with heir accus*omed vigor and fury.” None of the bovs were green enough to give to the public the co tents of “the within,” and paid no attention .o the startling information conveyed in “ Livingston's” tuitous com- munication. One of the gentlemen who had received the nonsens {happened to mention the fact in the Treasury, and guessed that =? eigen ough was acierk in the department, from whom he had received similar contribu- tions. The clerk's handwritip: “ Livingston” were com red—they were found to be identical. ie clerk has been quietly informed that such literature ts not what Is expected from an employé of the gov- ernment, and that for the sseurity of his posi- n he had better confine himseif hereafter to re ving. and not attempt anything outside of that line. and that of THE UNEXPECTEDLY LARGE VOTE cist for the greenback candidate in the third distrie of Vern ont has caused a great deal of talk among politicians here, and has occasioned ecnsiderable surprise. Democrats who had Previously covueeded an unbroken republican ae egation from Maine now predict the loss of the Portiana district by the republicans, and pessibly, aiso, another district. It is evident, they sav. that the sentiment in New England oppo ed to the resumption act is large and f owing. Whether these predictions are true v respect to Maine wil soon be determined. The republicans profess great confidence in the result. A LetTFR received here from the second Alabama Congressional district foreshadows the possibility of a republican victory there, and the consequent defeat of Hon. H. A. Her- bert, the sitting member, who was recently renominated. 6 letter say ‘He will have a hard time, but we think will certainl 'b turned, though the republican streng! district is such that a very small vote drawn tothe Tom Scott-greenbaeck-labor candidate from the democratic ranks would defeat him.” Col. Herbertis a pronounced anti-sub- sidy man. District Expenditures. HOW THEY ARE MADE AND CONTROLLED UNDER THE NEW LAW. Under the new order of things consequent upon the passage by Congress at the last ses sion of a bill for the government of the Dis- trict of Columbia, the District Commissioners yesterday made their first requisition upon the Secretary of the Treasury for money. Tne requisition was for $550,000. It was honored by Secretary Sherman, anl a warran’ for the amount made out ou Treasurer Giititivn. Against this amount the Commis ioners wil m out checks for funds as needed. At the end of each quarter they will nakearetucn to the accounting officers of the Treasury of»! their expenaitures. This will beace »upani: d by vouchers, showing exactly how the money Was expended. From the Treasurp accoun - ing officers these vouchers, ete., will go to the Fors’ Controlier, where they will be ayain closely seru inized before final approval. This of ccurse is an entirely different method frora that in vogue under the old law. Tuen the Commissioners deposited their funds in the Treasury and drew them out by checks ou the treasurer, and were accountable only to Cou gress. The pew plan will no doubt be atren !- ed with some ineonveniences to the Commis- siorers. Under the new bill they cannor ex eved the estimates for the expenses of the Di;- uict goverpment, which they submit annually te Congress, and upon which appropriations are based. The new bill says the money shall be appropriated a: d expended “on the basisof | the estimates submitted,” &c. The Treasury department at first held that under this the Commissioners not only could not exceed the amount estimated for, but that if they had money left over from ‘any single item cf the estimates it could not be used ‘for any other Pyrpose,and would have to be covered into the Treasury. From tis position the Com- missioners ‘secured a recedal after some trouble. They cannot, however, without being held respsnsible for the balance, exceed the lotal of their estimates. LATER—THE REQUISITION FOR FUNDS RE- “TED. JECTED. It is reported this afternoon that the first re- quisition made by the Distriet Commissioners on the Treasury department, under the settle ment between them and the Treasury offi. was to-day refused by the iatter on the zeound tla’ ovly two of the Commissioners’ sign - 0 tures were appended t Amy Rations FoR FEVER SUFFERERS — Secretary McCrary to-day authorized the issa- ance of 40,4) racions to the yellow fever suf- ferers at Memphis. Messrs. Woodruff, Divis and Garth, of Memphis, Tennessee, waited upon the Secretary of War yesterday in be- half of the suffering people of their city. Their interview wiih Secretary McCiary was en- lirely satisfactory, and all the relief possibie will be extended to the people of the sorely stricken city, RECRUITS FOR CaLiroRNtIA.—The superin- tendent of mounted reerniting service will cause 50 recruits to be prepared and for- warded, under proper charge, to Fort Yuma, Cal., for assigument to the 6th cavalry.

MURDERED sy His Son IN-Law.—An old man named Wilson, residing in the Walla va valley. Oregon, was recently murdered while op a bunting expedition. His head and lim>s were cut off, and his remains otherwise muti- lated, Padget | for the purpose of throwing suspicion on the Indians. Wilson’s son in- law, Joseph Coffman, has been arres‘ed for the crime, and the evidence against him is almost conclusive. The ob iee of the murder is supposed to have been robbery. A ROBBER MURDERER ARRESTED.—A Port- land oreeeny dispatch says Archie Brown, one of the men engaged in the recent robhary of a pawnshop, which was accompanied by murder, has been arrested. He confesses the crime. Johnson, the third accomplice, is sill at large, but his capture is expected daily. DEATH FROM HyDRoPHOBIA.—A. Beldford, who was bitten by a spite dog four months ago, died yesterday at Haddington, suburb of Philadelphia. His death was marked by all the symp:oms of hydrophobia. Two of his children, who were bitten at the same time, appear to be stil! in good health. MYSTERIOUS SHOOTING.—On Friday eyven- ing, while Erastus ar was lying mortally wounded in the house of his father, Mr. H.C. King, in York, Pa., and Dr. Spangler was dressing his wounds, some one fired a shot through a window of the house at Mr. H. L. King. The doctor came to Mr. King’s assist- ance, apd upon search founda bullet on the floor. The affairis quite a mystery. KEARNEY spoke at Newark, N. J., Monda: night toa crowd of about 3,000 Dersons, an his remarks were even worse than those he delivered here. He was interrupted with such unpleasant interrogatories as “How mich du you @ month?” which question Kearney amiably answered by calling the inquirer “the lick-spittle of some political bummer.” A DESPERADO KILLED.—A man named Bennett, from Honey land, was killed in Covington, Mass.. Monday, by W. F. Hosman, who had been caiied upon by the city marshal to assist him to arrest Bennett, who was a desperado, and had threatened to assault every woman in the town before he left it.

THE DEPOSITION OF BIsHOP McCoskRY.— In the heuse of bishops, before adjournment, a) rab ein eton sald that the vacancy in the Michigan diocese would be filled by an election after the usual manner. No charges had been made against Bishop McCoskry in an official way, and there would be no investi- gation. Dr. McCoskry was de; from the Iinistiy, and that was the end of the scandal case so lar as the church is concerned. The N.Y. Sun says: There will be surprise over the action in the case of the aged and the Rev- Dr. McCoskry, late Bishop of Michigan. He had already oltre his Episcopal jurisdic- tion, assigning old age and Boalt infirmity as his reasons for seeking to be relieved from a burden he was no longer able to bear, when the hideous scandal, with which his name is associated, was made public. At first he with. drew his resignation, announcing his purpose to confront his accusers and establish his in- nocence of the adulterous accusation. Then he renewed it and left the country. The Bishops of the Protestant Episcopal Chur-h rightly refused to receive this ee by @ unapimous vote, they authorized the pre- siding bishop to promulgate against Samuel Alien McCoskry the sentence of deposition from the sacred ministry and from all the of- fices thereof. HER REASONS FOR PREFERRING DEATH TO FE.—Mrs. Matilda Fisher who, on Moaday night twice attempted to leap from the ferry- boat Fulton, told Justie Kil>reth in the Tomts police court, yesterday, that her hus band was a prosperous tradesman of B: who died four years ago, worth $30,000.

She win- dered to Brooklyn, and in her trunks were taken, after she been a few days in a boarding house in Smith = suited aoe ‘o take her life, but was prevel ade that one of her ceases is a Boston music teacher, and one’of her sons is in a seminary.

It is not to be derived from conve. bience, ‘not deuied because of its inconve- nience. It depends altogether upon the stat- utes. In the early organization of the courts of the United States the justices of the Supreme Court weie sent by two to hold the cireuit court, and there can be no doubt that they not oply but exercised the power of granting interlocutory orders in any part of the United States. It was expressly given tiem by tae act of 15 sently the United Sates was uris and one justice of Notted to each, (act of IN2), Whe continued even then to havo the power to issue writs of injunction ahd in eilocutory orders wherever he might be in the Unsitted the act of Dower was taken away from ‘him and hi 0% it confined to his cireuit then. that whatewer may be th ireuit Judges, t art had express statutory power to issue injunctions ard grant interocut ry orders and motions in The circuit judges act of 186), and were Powers in their cir- Jus ices of the Su- preme Court allotted to thelr cireutts.
