ANOTHER SILVER DOLLAR CIRCULAR.—A circular was issued late this afternoon by Treasurer Gilillan. which takes the place of ail circulars heretofore issued concerning the Standard silver dollar.

SECRETARY SHERMAN’S RECONSIDERATION The letter of Secretary Sherman to Ti urer Gilfillan, rescinding his former commu- nication authorizing the Treasury to pay out Silver dollars on and after Monday next for national notes, was directly the result of acon- ference at the Treasury department yester- day afternoon, and almost as directly a result of the recent election in Maine. At the con- ference there were Secretary Sherman, Secre- tary Evarts, Attorney General Devens and Secretary Schurz. THE POLITICAL SITUATION was talked over thoroughly, and the causes which brought it about canvassed. The danger of the republican party, and what could be done to avert it, was considered as of vital importance. As nearly ail of the republicans who joined the greenbackers, or bolted to the democracy, did so on financtal issues, it was thought best that as the carrying out of Secre- tary Sherman’s order to exchange silver for national notes would be virtual resumption to rescind it. This was accordingly done. It is understood that it_was decided best that the Secretary of the Treasury should make no more decided efforts toward resumption, nor take sieps without first considering their eflect_ on the voters of the country. Anothe matter which has caused dissession in repub lican ranks, CIVIL SERVICE REFORM was considered. lt was the general und standing of all the conference, except See! tary Schurz, that the better plan would be to drop it. All present were of the opinion that the administration should do allin its power to stem the greenback wave and secure the return to Congress of as many of what generally known as “hard money men” as possible. The danger to the republican party Was acknowledged, and it was thought best to change the character of the campaign to meet the new issues. A FUTURE CONFERENCE OF THE FULI CABI- Secretary MaCrary will return to Washi ton next Monday. and Secretary Thompson and the President have, it is stated, been tele- aphed to return as ony as possible. Judge ey has also, it is stated, been telegraphed for. When all the Cabinet is here the policy to be qureded will be discussed and finally deter- mined on. The Public Dept. IMPORTANT STATISTICS COMPILED BY SECRE- TARY SHERMAN—PROGRESS TOWARDS R&- SUMPTION. Secretary Sherman has just issued a table of more than ordinary interest, giving an analy- sis of the public debt of the United States from July 1, 1 to July 1, 1878. By it it is shown that in 1860, one year before the war, the total interest-bearing debt was #51,640,838.11, made up of alittle more than $43,000,000 of 5 per cent. bonds and over $21,000,000 of 6 per cents, and. which required an annual interest payment of hearly $3,'00,000._ For the first year of the war there was but little increase, the total inter- est-bearing debt Speregatin over $30,000,006 In 162 this swelled to $365,000,00), and for 1883 aggregated $707,000.00, In. 1354 ‘the interest- bearing debt was over $160,300,00),000. In 4565 over $10,2(4),000,000 #in 1855, on the 3ist of a. the debt reached its highest figures, age and agpregated $2,381,-3),208.95 made “ap of His. 12745 of 4 per eeut, bondss Seat OF $1,281,736,439.33 Of 6's, and $839,000,000 of -l0ths per cents, and upon which the an- nual interest payments aggregated $150,077,- ce as ro 1865 to 1870 the debt was decreased showing an increase of 00 since Secretary Sherman took charge ofthe dedartment. The table also dispaich was received at the | { War department this morning shows the debt on which interest has ceased, the outstanding principal, and the debt Bes opie acd the interest per capita. For 187 the debt on which interest has ceased is placed at $5.594,560.26; that on total debt is $1,999,- 382,280.45, of which there is $155,875,682 27 which bearsno interest. The debt per capita accord. ing to the figures in 1860, was $1.91, computed upon the ofa Population of 31,000,000 and upward, while in 1873 the debt Ls pon is $41.67 upon a por uration of upwards of 47,000,- 000, and which is $1.97 interest per capita. Tne highest per ae is charged to the year 1: when it was $75.25, and with antere: .29. Since that time it has decreased to the figures before given for 1873. The table also shows that the lowest amount of cash in the Treasury from 1860 to 1878 was July Ist, sel, just after the war commenced, when it contained only $2,862,212 2. With increased taxation and our internal revenue system this Was increased by July 1st, 1862, to $18,863,659 96. Then under our heavy war expeuses in 18:3, the amount was reduced to $3,421,40122. Another turn of the screw was given, and in ised the cash in the Treasury amounted to $106,352,093. 53. In 1865 it dropped again to 2,012.98. Since then it has steadily accu- mulated, and in no year since was it less than $106,000, 000, retary Sherman reports cash in Treasury for 1873 at $256,823,612 03. When he took hold in 1877 there was in’ the Treasury $1S),(125.060.73; showing that he has added to his cash fund in one year over $70,00,00).. This, of course, with an eye single to resumption. ee BE OTES NAVAL ORDERS.—Ensign Wm. B. Caperton is ordered to the Powhatan at New York Passed Assistant Paymaster J.T.

Colonel Ingersoll as a Poet. Colonel Robert G. Ingersoll is well-known aS an orator whose speeches abound in pas- sages of poetic splendor ; butitis not renerall known that he has sometimes contributed—al- Ways anonymously—to the poetical literature of America. On the 1th of August he visited the home of Robert Burns, and there wrote the foliowing poem: ‘THE BIRTHPLACE OF BURNS. Though Scotland boasts a thousand names Of patriot, king and peer, ‘The noblest, grandest of them all ‘Was loved and cradied here: | Here lived the gentle peasant-prince, ‘The loving cotter-k' ng. Compared with whom:the greatest lord. 1s but a titled thing. °Tis but a cot roofed in with straw, ‘A hovel made of clay; ne door shuts out the snow and storm, One window greets the day; And yet I stand within this room ‘Ard hold all thrones in scorn, For here, berreath this lowly thatch, Love's sweetest bard was born. Within this hallowed hut I feel Like one who clasps a shrine, ‘When the glad lips at last have touched ‘The something deemed divine: And here the world through all the years, AAs long as day returns, The tribute of its love and tears Will pay to Robert Burns.

People whose homes are on the sides or at the foot of this uneasy vent of subterranean fires will not, perhaps, agree with the outside world in opinions on this subject, but the world will recognize that it was high time the mountain bestirred itself, under pa of losing its repu tation for ceeiarlty ince the beginning 0° the present century it has averaged about on - eruption in three years. If the interval has at any time reached four years the equilibrium has been restored by a reduction to two years on some other occasion. Between 1822 and 1828 there occurred the unusual lapse of six fetal which may have been compensated for y the earthquake which shook Algiers nearly to pieces in the year 1825.

THE PARIS EXPOSITION, Nearing Its End—Its Cost and its Benefits to France — America’s Share in It, Ete. (Correspondence of The Star] Parts, August 27, 1878. The close of the famous Universal Expost- | tion of 1878 is now gradually drawing near. It seems to be generally understood that its du- ration will not be prolonged beyond the jist of October, aotwithstanding the many reports to | the contrary. It will probably be known in history as the greatest World’s fair ever held, up to this time. In a financial point of view directly it cannot, however, be considered a success. The cost to the French government has been ninety million francs, while the full- est expectations will be realized if the gross returns foot twenty million francs. On the other hand, the beneficial results of the expo sition will be felt by the nation for years to come. Faris is the heart of France, and uvon it depends the life and activity of the nation. By attracting thousands ol strangers here from every part of the world, and sho) Zz to the world the beautiful results of Freach genius and workmanship, the old channels of trade, grown sluggish siuce the recent disas- trous war, will be reopened, and a more healthy and vigorous life current will be in- fused into the nation, already so wonderfully recupcrated. The results are beginning to appear even now. Work has been even to thousands of unemployed; business has im Proved everywhere, and the ery of “Vi Republique comes with such earnestness from all sides, that no one eandoubi that the present form of government is becoming more and more endeared to the people. COMPARED WITH THE CENTENNIAL EXUIBI- TION. Three out of every four Americans who come to Paris ask the question, “ How does this exposition compare ‘h our centennial x tion?” That is a question whieh they a very hard one to answer. The “Cen ial” was as far behind the Paris Exposi- in some things as this is inferior to ours in other respects. In all things pertaining to American industries and the results of useful inventive genius, the Centennial wasa wos Ger; but noue the less wonderful is this exposi- tion in the amount and variety ) ything: beautiful and artistic contributed by France and the other nations of Europe. All the large t America, are neighbors here, while the crossing of the Jantic to our exhi- Phia. OUR PART IN THE PARIS EXPOSITION. _ But what part does the United Siates play in this exposition? isa more important question, and one more easily answered. By uotmeans ameanone. America Sea of course, be expected to compare favorably with the old World as regards the beautiful. She is too young. She needs and produces the useful first. The log cabin must come before the palace. The fact that she has received more awards in proportion to the number of exhiv- itors (and they number 1,320) than any other nation represented here is, however, son thing to be proud of. The majority of the awards were, as the reader may infer, for the exhibits of practical use. THE GRAND PRIZES TO AMERICANS, So far as ofticially announced up to this date, are as foliows: Tiffany & Co., silverware Thomas A. Edison, phonographs: Elisha Gray, epee ; Jerome Wheelock, steam engine; C. H. McCormick, agricultural implements. Whata grand prize means has not yet been exactly ned. According to rumor, it will be a medal or work of art worth not less than one thousand francs. The Tiffany triumph has been very complete, and their exhibit a constant center of attraction. AMERICAN STEAM ENGINES. In all mechanical inventions, and _particn- larly ip useful inventions, America takes the lead. The acknowledged superiority of the Wheelock steam engine over all others exhib- noticeable instance, and probably one most important triumphs of the E: Do- sit This engine was shown at Philadel- phia, but was completely overshadowed by the great production of Corliss. Here its peculiar merits have been disclosed, and it ls likely to create a real sensation, as all who have examined it pronounce it a wonder o simplicity and power. It is a surprise to many that the Corliss engine has nota place in the American section. There is no necessiiy, however, for it is well exhibited in the other sections. A gentleman the other day asked Mr. Pickering, the superintendent of the U. S. machinery department, to show him one of the famous Corliss engines. In about ten min- utes he was shown three or four, but they were not in the American section. A'Corliss engine was represented here at the Exposition of 15:7 but a French engine was secured to rua the machinery for the American department, be cause no Américan engine was deemed worthy, although Mr. Pickering, who was su- erintending our machinery then, desired to ave the Corliss engine for that purpose. The Corliss engine ran empty during the exposi- tion, placed close beside the French engine, but at the awarding of pazes received a gold medal, while the Fretich engine received only one of silver. THE SUPERIORITY OF AMERICAN MACHINERY generally, no one can doubt, when he sees the number of American mechanical inventions made use of by other nations. Mr. Pickering being questioned the other day upon the sub- ject of copies of American machinery being So extensively shown by other sections, said: “If all the machinery sent by America here had been sunk in the Atlantic and I had been Permitted to go through the different ma- chinery galleries and select for our exhibit machines of American origin, our space would uot begin tohold them.” OPINION OF THE LONDON TIMES. The London 7imes not many days since ha an article over two columns in length upoa the American mechanicai inventions with a column of editorial comment, which has been attracting considerable attention here. The following is an extract: “It may almost cer- tainly be predicted of any modern mechanical congress that the Americans will carry off the pains for novel and ingenious application of foreé to practical purposes, the substitution of mechanism for hand labor in new and curi- ous contrivances, which to the amateur in such matters surprise as much by the new Ways in which old problems are attacked as by the fine way iu which the work is done.” that _Amer- d he writer, after saying ican mechanism is an offshoot from Eaglish, but an offshoot so peculiar in its character that mere heredity wiil not explain it, con- tinues—"As mechanical science progresses, the greater and more important inventions become elaborated by, and the property of, the nations who push that science farthest in its experimental studies.” Instances are given how Eoeand improved upon American inven. tions—the steamboat, the eee BS “yet, in spite of this, the Americad inventive genius develops more that is new and prac- tical in mechanism than all Europe combined. Though the American collection at Paris is 5 ee with those of other man- ing nations, yet there are present so many of the contrivances which illustrate the subtie mechanical genius, so well recognized already, that ‘Yankee’ is almost a synonym of inventor, that to amateurs in mechanism the most fascinating places are the little railed-off Spaces of the American section, for few of these contributions occupy more than a few Square feet.” NUMEROUS COMPLIMENTARY ARTICLES upon the American representation have ap- peared in the journals on this side, and the Severest criticisms upon it have been made by Americans. Reports have been sent home which make our representation here appear disgraceful. They are founded upon the fact that America is not as well represented as she should have been, and no credit is given for what has been done. Another set of unjust criticisms comes from the class of Americaus abroad, and itisalarge one, who have beea in Europe just long enough to get infatuated with foreign manners and customs to the ex- tent of believing nothing American to be Worth anything. An American lady well known im society in Paris remarked not long * How far superior this exposition is to Centennial! I didn’t see the Centennial, a A Know it couldn’t have amounted to uch.” GOVERNOR M'CORMICK’S LAST RECEPTION, held on the evening of the 14th inst., was largely attended. Besides the commissioners an exh! ibitors were present. Gen. Noyes, Gen. F. A. Walker, Olive Logan Sykes, Gen. Meredith Read, Consul General Fairchild, Bishop Ste- = ee and many traveling Americans ended. Mrs. McCormick has gone to Switzerland for an absence of a month or more. DIRECTOR GENERAL GOSHORN has returned to Paris from his trip iu Sweden. He says the good results of the Centennial Ex- ition are observable in all parts of Europe, In the use of many articles of American man- ufacture, which attracted ive la | | doubtless prevented the display of many | of the beauties of the old world in Philadei- ee about one hundred of the leading | knowiedgement the King placed special trains and boats at the disposal of Mr. Goshorn, and he was received everywhere with much’ cor- aiality and distinction. A BANQUET WITH NOTHING To FAT A banguet was given last night by tie em joyes of the eaposition at the skatiig palace | at the Bois de Boulogne. It. was understood that it was in Loge © of the French employes, in honor of the foreign employes—price 6 francs.

Mr. William Durr, residing near Broad Creek, Md., was before the District Commis. sioners this morning and filed a complaint of the manner in which the eontractor for the removal of dead animals and night soil is per forming his duty at place of landing on Broad Creek. He filed a paper setting forth that, both dead animals and night soil is being dumped into the creek instead of being land- ed, and the shores are lined with the floating putrid matter sending broadeast the most offensive odors over both land and water. The Commissioners referred the matter to the health officer. & Eqa: * the Rates.

Reports from the surrounding country, however, show that the storm in some instances assumed the propor- tions of a cyclone, uprooting and biowing trees through the air. Fenees and outhouses stood but little chance. In the southern por- ion of Chesterfield county the storm raged | fearfully, leaving havoc and destruction along | its path. A number of houses are reportea biown down in that county and several per- sons injured by falling and tiying timbers. Similar reports are received from parts of Henrico and Hanover counties, in which resi dences and other buildings, trees, fences, orchards and everything movable sutfered to & greater or lesser extent. Accounts from South and southeast of Petersburg state that the tornado swept over that section ina north- erly direction, its track ranging from fifty to three hundred feet in width. ‘The storm came from North Carolina, passing up through Vir- ginia in a noitherly course. telegram re- ceived from Lynchburg says the James river at that point has risen twelve feet, and is still ie at the rate of eighteen inches aa hour. A Wheeling, W. Va., ceraee says: This section of the state was visited ou Thursday night by the heaviest and steadiest rain ever known here.
