THE PRorosED New NAVAL OnseERVATORY.—In a special report to Secretary Hunt, Rear Admiral John Rodgers, superintendent of the naval obser- yatory, details the labors of the commission ap- pointed under the authority of the act of February 4, 1880, to Select a site fora new naval observatory, Which resulted in the selection and purchase ot the place belonsing to Mrs. M. C. Barber, on Georgetown Heights, for the sum of $63,000. The height of the land is 280 feet above mean tide in the Potomac river. ‘The place fs salubrious, with a fine horizon, and Contains a fraction over seventy acres of Lind.’ ‘The character of the soil 1s gravel, sand and Clay, with a small portion of the latter, however, rendering the foundation of any bulld- ing exceedingly firm.

DEVELOPMENTS TO-DAY—EFFORT TO RALLY THE WEST UPON KASSON, There is nothing yet in the contest for the Speak- ership which will warrant a prediction as to the Tesult. The only new phase developed to-day Is | an effort to induce all of the westera candidates except Kasson to withdraw, and to co:bine upon him as the candidate of the west. A conference looking to such combination was held last night, butas yet it has only reached the preliminary stage. If anything is effected in this direction itwill be late to-morrow before it 13 openiy ac- Knowledged. If it were not for Kelfer, those i tie movement, think it could be made successful. Kelfer, however, still claims that he is In a good position to win’the race, and will not think of Pulling out unless the Onfo delegation absolutely abandon him. ‘There isan idle hope indulged In by a few of the greenback members, that by a combination of the votes of their party, the control Of the House by the republicans can be rendered ble. “Sam Carey, of Oblo, has been here two days feeling the round laying plans to get the greenback re- ubican members to refrain from voting for the republican caucus nominee. The green- back members on the.ground have held one or two conferences to see What could be done, but the matter has ended in smoke, {t being conceded that the republicans are masters of the situation and will secure the organization of the House of Ke resentatives without. difficulty. Some of the reenbackers have, however, agreed to place the ev. De La Matyr in nomination for the clerksht of the House. ‘This will do lim no harm a little good. It one were to judge of the speakership fight, solely by the gomsip of strikers ut the hotels, it would appear that Kasson, of lowa, had the prize already in his hands. Ehtering upon the more methodical business of counting noses, it is hard tw see why Kasson’s friends should display sch confidence. ‘There is no doubt but that Hiscock Willlead hin the rst ballot largely. This, of Course, will be, because of the fact that the New York York delegation, which will go solidly for Hiscock, has nineteen ‘votes to cast, against the nine of lowa, which will be cast for Kasson. in, Hiscock 1s the only candidate who has behind hint Solid any other state except his own. With all the other candidates the strength they possess outside of their own delegation is scattered here and there among the several states. H on the other hand, has the solid delegations of Rhode Island, Vermont and New Hatopshire, and all of the Mas” sachusetts delegation Saye two, and on the second Dullot will have them all. Although the Pennsyl- vania delegation, which casts twenty votes in the. caucus, is yet unpledged, the chances are that His- cock will receive the votes of one-half, if not two- thirds, of the delegation. ‘This shows @ more post- tive and visible strength for Hiscock than for any other candidate. ‘The chances hence favoring HIs- cock are that he may show up so strong on the first ballot that the trimmers may become im- pressed that the race fs going his way, and thi ‘on the second or third Dallot, vote for him and en the contest in his favor. ‘The active agents work- tor Mr. Hiscock are Senator Aldrich, of Rhode d, and Representative Ketcham, ot New York. Mr. Kasson las strong backers, bat bis st 1s in the prospective. He is talked of kindly ‘as one having more abliity to presile over the House than any’ of the other candidates. ‘This is no doubt true, and his availability and adaptability for the position count largely fh his favor. Still it cannot be Urged against Hiscock, that he 18 not petent to preside. The opposition to Mr. McPherson for the Clerk ship of tie House does not_appear to be serious, and there seems but little doubt of his election on the tirst ballot. For the Sergeant-at-Arms place Mr. Hooker, of Vermont, undoubtedly leads. ‘The members ot the Indiana delegation Say that ex-Representative Ford of that state Is Not a candidate. ns Exlitor Richardson, of the Dayton (Ohio) Se ere ‘Gen.
