The prive advanced from 1154 to 115% during the ‘business, but the majority of sales were made at lower figures, At the close of the market there ‘was considerable activity.

Business to-day was exceedingly timited, the total transactions being represented by 53,000 shares. Even Pacific Mail, which has 80 long hetd @ leading place at the board, failed to elicit interest, and by its indifference leit the rest of the list to 1oliow their natural course. Western Union, there- fore, stepped to the front and largely occupied at- vention, selling at 913, a 91%, and gradually weak- ening, a8 18 supposed, in consequence of the un- Pleasant bank statement to 913s. Pacific Mail opened at 443;, sold up\to 44% and down to 4334. Owing to the absence of any more “bull points,” lower prices are intimated in this stock, Curious statements direct from head- quarters are even now “on the wing.” They cannot be published without provoking criti- cism, ‘They reiterate tacts, however, that nave been frequently published. It remains for time to demonstrate their truth. Erie sold at 60 @ 59% a 60, the decline being in sympathy with London quotations, which were shot up by incorrect re- pores from this side as to the nature of the divi- dends, disappointed, yet a confident feeling prevails here that the owners of the common stock will be kindly remembered in the payment of dividends, even though the company are forced to negotiate funds for the purpuse. cent.

Amost interesting epoch in the existence of government officials is the end of each month, at which time salaries are paid, and, in many cases, the hard earned stipend is taken by the one to whom it is due in order to merely pay it over to the sharks who have taken advantage of the em- ployé’s necessities during the interim of the month by advancing money at the nominal interest of ten per cent, or 120 per cent per annum, to relieve his pressing need. The last day of September coming on Sunday the employés of the several government offices re- ceived their salary yesterday. The BUSINESS AT THE CUSTOM HOUSE during the past month was an improvement over that of July; yet it was by no means what it ought to have been at this season of the year. A MOST IMPORTANT CONTROVERSY, as well as highly interesting to merchants and others, has been carried on during the past week between the Custom House people and Postmaster James. It was claimed by the former that when- ever any letters are received at the Post Ofice sus- pected of containing valuables subject to duty the same must be sent to the Customs Department, to be opened then and there and appraised for tariff dues, Mr. James claimed that THE SANCTITY OF THE MAILS must be respected; and no one, except the parties to whom letters were addressed, had a right to break the seal. The casus belli was carried to Wash- ington; and the stand taken by Postmaster James was not only approved by Postmaster General Creswell, but the Secretary of tne Treasury in- structed General Arthur to detail a customs oMicer to the Post Office, with Mr. James’ concurrence, before Whom ail such letters, as cited above, shall be opened and disposed of. Mr, James is strength- ened in the action taken on this subject by the foliowing POST OFFICE REGULATION, which {s ample in its provisions on every point in- volved in this controversy :— Sxcriow 52.—When letters or packages from a foreign country are received at any poscoftice and the postmaster has reason to believe that such letters or packages con- tain articles subject to duty, he shall immediately nour the customs officer of the district in which his office. 16 located of the receipt of such letters or packages and the Dames of the persons to whom the same are addressed. he letters or pockages must be retained ao reasonable time, for the purpose of allowing the customs officer to examine them. Packages, when seized by an officer of the customs, will be opened by such officer in the presence of the Postmaster and of the par- ties addremed, but letters registered or ordinary can be opened by the parties addressed, who should be nowfied by the customs officer tw appear at the Post Oifice and open the same. Postmasters are expected to extend to custom house officers all proper facilities to rotect the customs revenue from irauds practised Pxrough the mails. FILTHY CONDITION OF THE POST OFFICE. Notwithstanding the constant tinkering and temporary repall oid church the Post Oftice building is io @ horrid In ofder to gain some ventilation huge windsatis were applied from the roof, but whenever it rains the floor of the office is almost swamped, and the water, instead of running Off, sevties under the floor and ‘becomes stagnant, The old tower on nae treet Was removed a short time, andfin its cavity a new room fitted up, besides which @ foor was rented on Liberty street and added to the postal department; yet the ac- commodations are still very limited.’ Mr, A. B. Mullet, Supervising Architect of the Treasury De- partment, was at the Post Oilice yesterday and romised that he would exert all his power to have me lower part of the new building ready for the Postmaster by New Year's, The busi- ness in mail matters makes it desirable that in- creased facilities be speedily extended to the New York Post Office. Mr. James received @ notification yesterday that the Post Office at Annandale, N.J,, had been robbed on Friday night ore stamps to the value of $150. A high official of the government reports that Postmaster Samuel Booth, of Brooklyn, will resign his office, and that Captain Sam P. Russell, Superintendent of Bonded Warehouses under the Custom House authorities, will be his successor. Postmaster James desires to contradict the re- ort published recently in regard to the arrest of fred McPyke for robbing the mails, It was stated that the accused was clerk in the Post Office, whereas he was only a driver in the employ ofthe New York Transfer Company, and in This way connected with the Post 01 oy quspectgd for some time pas, Sharrets, and the man was finally caught piifering letters at station K, and apprehended, PAYMENT OF PENSIONS te seitions of. the late war and their widows is quarterly. The third quarter for 1873 will be wid next Thursday and the days following by Mr. B. Datoher, the New York Pension Agent. At the same time the biennial examination of invalids by the surgeons will be held. Every pensioner whose certificate does not in express terms exempt therefrom, or whose disability is not of a peemeneee omfracter, such as a loss of a limb, is subject to’ the examination. ‘This, however, only applies to soldiers of the late war; those of 1812 are exempt on account of their being pensioned as survivors and not as in- alida, The highest number of certificates thus far is 87 follows i—For widows, 162,700; ior inva- lids, 124,800; widows of 1812, 6,565; invalids of 1812, 21,003, Upwards of 100,000 applications for pension are pending and undetermined at Washingion, of which 3,000 refer to the war of 1812, CIVIL SERVICE EXAMINATIONS are not only confined to the Custom House, Naval OfMce, Appraisers’ Department and Post Oticey but the Sub: Treasury is also included in the circult of the Civil Service code. A few days ago two vacan- cies occurred here, and General Hilihouse there- upon noti#ed Mr, G, W. White, Chairman of his vlvil Service Commission, to notify candidates to appear for competitive examination, The result Was that twenty-one applicants were examined, and Messrs, W. M. Lindsey and C, W. barnes were the fortunate winners. ‘Tue Treasury Civil Service Commission consists of Mr. G. W. Wiute, Chair- man, and Messrs, ©. H. Patterson and F, C. Field. while waiting tor the mats, THE FENIANS IN COUNCIL. The Convention Adjourns Sine Die—Re= ports from Ireland—The Russian Mar- riage—Nationalists Resting Upon Their Arms. The Fenian Convention adjourned sine die yes- terday morning, at five o'clock, after a session of five days and nights. The delegates showed at least a great deal of sell-abnegation, for, though they came from distant points tired and worn out, they were prompt to answer the roll call at each session, Most ofthe gentlemen who attended ap- peared to be men who nad seen service in ‘the tented field,” and their genuine feelings of devo- tion to their mother land could not be questioned. The boasted free institutions of England were to the minds of some of the delegates who recently arrived from Ireland a hideous mockery. They asseverated that what with patrolling the roads and byways in the country, at all hours of the day and night, by highlanders and the royal con- stabulary, Poland was never more under the op- Presser’s heel than Ireland is two-day under Mr. Gladstone's government, REPORTS FROM IRELAND. The reports received from the Old Country dis- pelled the impression that the masses of the Irish people were content to remain submissive or con- tent or were in any sense changed in their deeply cherished wish to be rid of the English oppressor. The fear of the Fenian Brotherhood and the various wrongs heaped on the unfortunate people of Ireland among others by rapacious absentee landlords deriv- ing incomes spent abroad, from estates that have been wrested from their rightful owners consti- tuted, as a delegate remarked, a skeleton in the closet for England and gages for batue always present for Ireland agatnst her merciless ruler, THE RUSSIAN MARRIAGE, A reporter of the H&RALD endeavored to obtain some definite information concerning the proceed- ings of the Convention. All that could be reliably ascertained was that constant and regular com- municution was kept up with the circles in Eng- land, Ireland and tiand, and that there was, instead of falling off {n zeal or devotion, increased manifestations in these regards. The Russian marriage was, according to one communication, @ Bop to the besotted English groundlings, but Ireland, and the wrongs under which she groans, was Engiand’s weakness. A thousand alliances of the kind amount to nothing in comparison with the resolve of Ireland to get even with her old time foe. The Duke of Edinburgh, a (dN lont mean fellow, who sold a span of horses presente: to him in Melbourne before leaving the Australian colonies and put the money in his pocket, was re- ferred to in a despatoh trom Dundalk. The circles there were resting on their arms and ready to march NOT A PUNERAL. One gentleman in attendance regretted very much that Mr. Gladstone did not ask for £100,000 a year for, as he stated, the invalid Princeling. He itied irom the bottom of bis heart the Russian mperor’s poor daughter. When the English found the expense of maintaining the farce of a monarchy with parsimonious representatives they would soon give it up. It was not entirely an Irish funeral. The delegates had a good deal to Bay concerning the matter of sending arms to Ire- land, Attacks on militia barracks they condemned, for such could only result in bringing sorrow and weeping to many a household. The Convention Tepeated, before closing, that it was only when England was fighting for life that Irish nationalists should resort to arms, if justice could not be other- wise acquired, to obtain their inalienable rights— rights, a8 the delegates stated, they would far McPyke was Snook ATW. sooner die to obtain than have their countrymen remain deprived of in their native land. —__+++___.
