Stevenson, the First Assistant Postmaster General, has been submitted, and states that dur ing the year 2,121 post offices were established, and the number discontinued 886, making the total number 51,252 in the coun- try, a large increase over the offices established 1m the previous year. The whole number of ay pointments made during the year was 11,203, made up as follows: _ On resignations ana com- issions expired, 6,204; removals and suspen- sions, 610: changes of names and sites, 207; deatlis of postmasters, 412; establishment oi new offices, 2,221. ‘Tile greatest Increase in the humber of new offices was 100in Virginia, ‘The increase in Dakota was 71, and in Missis: sippi 59, The report states that the number of changes in the pustmasters during the year was less than the preceding year, and the large decrease in the number of cases acted upon during the year, a8 compared with the preceding year, wan lue to the fact that very few chunges were made prior to Mareh 4th.

DAMAGE AT GREAT FALLS RY THE FLOOD— THE TUNNEL EXProstox, ETC, Major Lydecker, in his report to the chief of engineers of the operations for increasing the water supply of Washington during the month of October, states that work on the dam at Great Falls was carried on, but the stormy weather throughout the month interfered ma- serially with its progress, On the 29th only about a dozen stones were required to complete the gap in the Virginia channel up to the coping, but the storm on that night, and the resulting high water, put a sudden stop to all operations, In addition, the coffer dam was broken down, track swept away, scows carried over the dam and down the river, derricks over- turned, cars, wheelbarrows and much other property lost or damaged. Some of the last stones pitced in the Virginia channel gap were sweptaway. There rematus yet to be finishea the gap in the Virginia channel, about 200 feet of coping in the Virginiachannel, about 200 fect of coping on the old dam, and asiail amount of mason nd coping about the head wall of the dam, all of which it is hoped to fivish in No- vember, g Work’ was carried on in excavation in six headings of the tunnel during October, A pre- mature explosion in_the cast Foundry branch heading, October 23d, instantly killed James MeDonaid, and fatally’ injured Jos, Nicholson, and more or less injured several other men. The distance to be excavated to connect the east heading of Rock creek shaft with the Champlain avenue heading Is 63 feet. Connec- | BOrth has been a repetition of all his old tri- tion will probably be made about the middle of | umphs, November, The total length of tunnel exca- yatel to October. 31 was 17,056 feet, leaving 3,658 feet to be excavated. Owing to frequent rain storms, the progress of the work on the reservoir was very much re- tarded. During November work will proceed on ail parts of the reservoir. ee FILLING THE FLATS. Work on the Improvement of the River Front During October. Col. P. C. Hains has submitted a report to the chiet of engineers on the work of improving the river front during the month of October, He states that the amount expended during the month was $28,268.61, leaving an available balance, exclusive of outstanding liabilities, of 3: 29. Dredging was continued on the Washington channel, below the Long bridge, by hydraulic dredge No. 2. The machine made 359 engine hours, and excavated und deposited 59,375 cubic yards of material, chiefly mud. Dredge No. 3 worked 236 eugine hours in widening the Virginia channel, and exes 25,232 cubic yards, chiefly sand. Dredge No. 1 worked below Long bridge, in the Virginia channel. She made 453 engine hours, aud ¢x- cavated and deposited 97,80U cubic yards. The dredge Alaska, hired by’ the hour, w the embankment along the southeast Of the Udal reservoir, making 1704, hours, and excavating about 18,150 cubic yurds, The At- Janta, also hired by the hour, worked 47 55-60 hours in torming embankment along face of the fill on the outer edge of section [I, between site of inlet gates and Long bridge, and Gig hours in raising the embaukinent along the line of the sewer cunai, section I, excavating and Geposiing in all about 7,900 cubic yards. 3,313. cubic yards of rip-rap stone tor footing of em- Sty along section 1 was deposited in place. WHAT HAS BEEN DONE. In execution of the project aimed at by the whole Improvement, there has been a channel over 300 feet wide and 20 feet deep dredged from Giesboro' Point to Georgetown, which is being still further widened. The channel along the city tront below Long bridge, which is to be widened and deepened, has had ‘about 537,000 cubic yards of material dredged from it.” All the dredged material is deposited on the flats, and up to the present time, of about 12,000,000 cubic yards required to fill the flats, there has been deposited on them about 2,938,450 cubic yards. Iv is proposed to continue the dredging ofthe channels uf the river during November, epositing the spoils on the flats. AN ADJOURNMENT OF THE HEARING UNTIL TO-MORROW.

The following passages sum up his views re- garding the liberal dissensions. On the Irish question he said: “We are all, every man, woman, and child among us, convinced that it is the will of Providence that these islands should be bound together in a united kingdom, from one end of Great Britain to the other. I trust there will not be asingle representative returned to parliament who for one moment would listen to any proposition tending visibly orsensibly to impair the unity of the empire.” Within this limit he expressed himselfstrongly in favor of the greatest possible cohesion, On the general political outlook, appealing to the liberals to close their ranks, which, it will be remembered, is the great object of his Visit, he spoke as follows (I give this sentence verbatim usa perfect example of Gladstoye's later views and style) **Even if other reasons were insufficient the grave consideration of the Probable demands that may be make upon par- iament for the settlement of the Irish question is a new and commanding reason why, stand- ing shoulder to snouider, uniting heart to heart and mind to mind, we Should adhere to the great commission ‘of the liberal policy, which we have received from two generations of statesmen entrusted with the confidence of the country, and should prosecute with every’ faculty ve possess the work, ardous, in as the work of governing this great empire must always be—a work which we never can hope to fultit'to periection, for that is bevond human power or human Hope, but_a work which by fidelity and devotion ‘we may hope so far at least fo accomplish that this generation shall stand worthily in com) n With those which have preceded it, and honorably in the recollec- tion of those who shall follow it, as a genera- tion that has labored heartily’ and well to maintain the fame and happiness of an em- pire, than which the world has never seen one more great or glorious. The News says nothing about the contents of the speech. | The Standard says: “The sanguine people who imagined Gladstone would clear up, when he came to speak, the points he left scure, when he penned his manifesto to his constituents, will find ‘the opening address to Justity their hopes. Ambiguity 1s fur too serviceab.e to be sacrificed in the cause 1 common sense.” Lord Sulisbury’s speech at the Mansion house last night was overshadowed by Gladstone's, but was really excellent. He said no settio- anent of the eastern question in deflance of the Wishes of the subject population could. last. People are asking why he does not apply this reasoning to Ireland. The Times says: “Lord Salisbury’s foreign references will be welcomed by the nation as sound in substance, dignified in manner, and generous in spirit.” "The Daily News says! “What Lord Salisbury bad to say Wout Bulgaria will rather astonish conserva- tives of the old school.
