THANKS FoR A Rescvg.—The State department has forwarded to the Navy department the copy of a note received from Chevalier @. R. Raffo, con- sul general and cha d@affaires ad inter of Italy in the United States, conveying the thanks of his government to the commander and members of the crew of the U.S. steamer Trenton, who rescued the Italian brig Sicilia Palermo in August last in the Mediterranean Sea. Tue U.S.S. PowHATAN arrived at Charlestown, ‘Mass., this morning. She is disabled and will be delayed for necessary repatrs, which will preclude her participating in the Yorktown celebration. Commander Matthews reports to the Navy depart- ment that on the way from Aspinwall the Powha- tan reached Key West October 7th. Anchoring in the outer harbor, the surgeon was sent on shore to inquire as to thehealth of the place. He reported that the fever was not epidemic, and Cee the strength of that report the Powhatan went along- side the coal wharf and took in 200 tons. Two Brave Men.—By official communication from the Alaska, at Callao, the attention of the Navy department is called to the heroic action of second-class fireman Edward Barrett in hauling fhe fires when the stop-valve chamber in the engine- room was ruptured. Barrett was noton watch atthe time, but seeing the st umpede of the watch he, at im- miunent peril of his life, rushed to the fire-room of his own accord and performed the greater part of the work of hauling the fires. He was assisted by sec- ond-class fireman John Laverty, who also was not on watch. The two men are commended for the services in unqualified terms. Tue SILKEN Corp.—The eldest daughter of the late superintendent of the Coast Survey, Mr. Car- Iile Patterson, was quietly married on the 17th at her mother's residence, Brentwood, to Mr. Winslow, of the navy, now on duty at the Coast Survey offire. Only relatives were Invited, o wing to the deep mourning of tie family for Mr. Pa tter- son’s death. The marriage is one highly ap- proved by all acquainted with both parties. Both are young and apparently well suited to each other. The bride is so popular that she has ten times been bridesmaid for her young friends. Cards have been issued by Justice and Mrs. Harlan for the marriage of their daughter Edith Shanklin Harlan to Frank Linus Child on Tues- day, October 2th, at 7 o'clock, at the New Yor!

Lendereg, at Bridgeport, Connecticut, stating that he has a'quarry of grey granite, thirty miles from Bridgeport, on the line of the Shepang ratiroad,which he will’place at the disposal of the officers of the Garfield Memorial Hospital, and allow them to take therefrom all the stone they need, free of any charge, for the same, provided powdér is not used in quarrying. He says: “The quarry les one-eighth of a mile from the main line of the Shepang ratiroad. A side track can be laid from the matin Ine right into the quarry, which will reduce the cost of handling the stone. "The cost of quarrying ought not to be over five cents per cubic foot, and, as the present rate of freight is thirteen cents per cubie foot, the total coast to Bridgeport would be eighteen ‘cents per cubic foot. Tn view of the fact of its being a na- tional hospital, erected to perpetuate General Gar- field's memory, perhaps the railroad company could be induced to give a lower rate of freight. ‘The granite can be loaded at Bridgeport or South Norwalk on schooners or barges, and shipped di- rect, by water, to Washington.” The postmaster at Bridgeport endorses the above letter, certiiying to the sincerity of the offer made, and saying that the granite is of handsome shade, and texture, and of great strength. A Wmre House Cuance.—About thirty feet of the eastern end of the public corridor up-stairs at the White House is being partitioned off from the rest of the corridor, and will be used for oflice purposes. ‘THE REDEMPTION OF CONTINUED SIX PER CENTS. ‘Treasurer Gilfillan has mailed the checks for the payment of princtpal and interest on continued six per cent bonds, amounting to $5,650,000, under the redemption of Secretary Windom yesterday. There were only fifty-two checks representing that entire amount, and all of it except $340,000 was held in New York. Sue OseveD Her INstevctions.—A number of coupon bonds were received at the Treasury de- partment for registry a few days ago. All the numbers of the bonds were cut out. ‘The Treasury department did not know what to make of the mu- tilated bonds. ‘They came from Chicago. A letter has just been recei ved at the department from the owner of the bonds In New York, who said he had written to his wife in Chicago to Send the bonds to the ‘Treasury and send the numbers of them to him in New York, The devoted and obedient Spouse carried out’ his instructions to the letter.

THE HISTORY OF THE COMING CHANGE. Itis no secret that Postmaster General James, early in the days of the Garfield administration, insisted upon the removal Of Birst Assistant Post- master General Tyner. In hisprosecution of the Starroute ring Mr. James was satisfied that he would not have the co-operation of Mr. Tyner, and he wanted a first assistant who would hear tily jain in carrying out the policy Mr. James had deter- mined upon. At the time Gen. Garfield Was shot there is .reason to believe that the removal of Tyner had been determined upon. The shooting and subsequent death of the President, of course, put a stop to all proceedings inthatdirection. Itisknown that President Arthur very promptly expressed himself to the proper officials in favor of a vigorous prosecution of all who were implicated in the alleged star route irregularities, and ft 1s generally believed that Gen. James {8 to remain at the head of the Post Office department, at least until these prosecu- tions shall have been concluded. Somewhere in the neigborhood of two years ago Mr. ‘Tyner, accompanied by a party of selected friends, went west on atour of inspection. He iad special cars at his service and he traveled all through the west and northwest, examining mi- hutely into the operations Of the mail service in that section and the conduct of the post offices. After his return he wrote up a lengthy report of his trip and his discoveries, He went particularly into the workings of the star-route service, and pointed out its numerous defects. This report is said to be a wholesale and sweeping condemnation of the star-route service as it was then conducted, inting out some of the very wrongs and de- fects that have since become a part of the complaint of General James against the Brady administration of the service. This re- Port was never,made public by Tyner, nor was any portion of its ‘contents; neither, so far as the re- cords show, were any steps taken towards correct- “ng the evils mentioned in the report, though Ty- ner, was subsequently, for a time, acting Post- master General, by reason of the absence of the then Postmaster General. It is said that Gen. James, when requested by the President to remain at the head of the Post Oitice department,repeated the request he had made to Gen. Garfleld, ti ‘Tyner should be removed, urging as he ‘one before, that he did ‘not consider him a proper man for the position. By some means the report written by Tyner, and which had been kept secret, passed into the possession of Gen. James not a’ great while after he became Postmaster General. He, so the story goes, laid this report before President Arthur, as a reason for Tyner’s removai. It was represented that an oflicial wh had direct and positive kn f and fraud in government serv! had control, and yet did nothing towards expor- {ng and correcting the abuses, should not be con- tinued in office. “In consequence of this Mr. ner's resignation was asked for. ee Our Foreign Guests at the Tomb of ‘Washington. GAY SCENES ON THE POTOMAC YESTERDAY. The river was very lively, indeed, all day yester- day, and, independent of those who went to York- town, there were numbers who enjoyed a trip upon it. The Corcoran carried many passengers to Mount Vernon, who congratulated themselves on the opportunity offered not only to see that charming spot on so fine a day and the many other points of interest viewed between here and there, but also all the vessels carrying parties to York- town which started between.10 a. m. and 4p. m. On the up trip the Corcoran saluted, tn turn, thy Speedwell and City of Catskill, just’ as they were wing Mount Vernon, (the former, of course, had not landed any passengers there)’ and later. thc torpedo boat Alarm and the Despatch. ‘The Hart- ley, from Georgetown, carrying a party of 12 to Yorktown, was also passed, and the Excelsior, much decorated with flags, was just ready to start from her wharf, next that’ of the Corcoran, when the latter returned, ‘The Corcoran also was decor- ated with many flags, by Capt. Blake's orders, The Corcoran reached Mount Vernon nearly an hour before the Catskill arrived, bearing the Secre- tary of State and the French and German. visitors. ‘The Superintendent, Col. Hollingsworth, who was on the former, desired to be at Mount Vernon long enough before the distinzulshed guests to prepare for their reception, for the regent and vice regents neither came to Tecelve them, as was suggested last spring that they should, or gave any direction in regard to their reception’ Col. Hollingsworth, at his own expense, bought French, German an United Stats flags and placed-one Of each nation with crossed staves on the door of Washington's tomb, and over the front and rear entrances to the mansion. He was careful to place one of our flags between those of France and Germany, ‘The Cats- kill could not land at the wharf, so sent the French visitors, M. Outrey and Secretary Blaine ashore in the first launch and then the Germans in another launch, An ambulance conveyed most of the French up the long hill, but most of the Germans seemed to ‘prefer to walk up. Of course all visited the tomb of Washington, and stood before it with uncovered heads. They went through the mansion, and showed great in- terest in all they saw, the French especially noting the key of the bastile. Secretary Blaine escorted la Marquise de Rochambeau. Mme. Loyseau and Miss de Chambrun were also with the French party. Mme de Chambrun, who, it will be re- membered, is a great-grand daughter of Lafayette, is now in France, but will return here next month: ‘The visitors went through the gardens, where, by the thoughtful order of Col. Hollingsworth, each lady was presented with a handsome boquet, and each gentleman with a boutonniere. About’ two o'clock the launches conveyed the entire party back to the Catskill, which had awaited them in the middle of the stream, and as soon as all were aboard she began her voyage to Yorktown. She tolled her bell as she lett Mount Vernon, as she had done on approaching it. —— Guiteau and His Lawyer. ‘MR. SCOVILLE’S HELP FROM OUTSIDE PARTIES. Mr. Scoville, Guiteaw’s counscl, finds that he has very little time to thoroughly study up the case confided to him. ‘There are only seventeen days left him now, “I have to look up the statutes in regard to witnesses to-day,” he sald to a Srar re- porter, “and to write an argumentto submit to the court, which I will have printed. That will take one whole day. I have many letters to read. Of course I cannot read them all. Insome of them 1 find very valuable suggestions. I have recelved many pamphlets and publications regarding Guiteau's case, which I find valuable. All I want ts time to fead them and incorparate them in my mind. Here,” said Mr. Scoville taking a letter trom his table, “is a letter from a lady in Boston, who seems very well informed. She gives me a’list of valuable publications that I intend to order. ‘The lawyers throughout the country are kept by the press about as well informed about the case as I am myself.
