William Burnett, Supervising Inspector General of Steam Vessels, bas made his report of the steam inspec- | tion service for the fiscal year ending with June 30, 1875, to the Secretary of the Treasury, The service at 1 date consisted of a total of 103 officers and clerks as 1 follows :— One supervising inspector general, resident at Wash- ington, 10 supervising imapectors, 36 local inspectors of Louler®, 38 local inspectors of bulls, 8 assistant local in- spectors of boilers, 4 assistant local imspeotors of bulls, # clerks to local inspectors, The following table shows the number of steam ves- sels inspected, their aggregate tonnage ana the officers licensed for the several divisions of navigation therein nated :— ~ Division, Steamers. | Tonnage. | Officers.

Making a total sumber of accidents, 36, The Superintendent says:— It will be seen from the above statements that a | total of 405 lives have been lost on merchant steam | vessels of the United States during the last fiscal year, but to our own citizens the loss of hfe for the same period has*been only 201, which is an unusually small number, While there were thirty-six disasters to ‘steam vessels by which life was lost, not a angle one of these resulted in the loss of more than half the lives here recorded. I refer to the burning of the steamship Japan at sea, off Swatow, which the lives of 200 Chinese and four other persons were destroyed. There were fourteen cases of explo- sion or accidental escape of steam, one of which re- sulted in the death of twenty persons, and another si while only twenty-five persons were lost by the remain. ing twelve. There were six burnings of steamers by which life was lost; 204 were lost by one of these, and forty-five and twenty respectively by two others, while China, bY }-der the specie resumption act of January 14, 1875, and’ As'no bounds can be set to the damage which | may accue to the vessels and persons on board | on the occurrence of such disasters, every effort should properly be made to place within the reach of persons thus imperilied such means of safety as human ingenuity can devise.

Relative to certain kinds of disaster, the | attainment of this end is far from impossible. Accidents | by explosion, fire, and in general by collision, are fully within remedy and may be prevented by the exercise of superior skill and watchfulness by inspectors and officers of the vessels. Men employed in the daily rou- tine of the direct management of steam vessels, and whose minds are absorbed in the particular business which they bave in hand, become almost necessarily unmindful of the dangers with which they are contin- ually surrounded, and of the means provided by law for ‘the safety of life in case of accident, allowing such ap- rel to become deranged and displaced.

Dr. Linderman, Director of the Mint, has made his report to the Secretary of the Treasury. It shows the operations of the Mint and Assay offices for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1875, from which it appears that the amount of gold and silver depoeits and purchases, coins struck and bars manufactured were as follows:— Gold. deposits.

The duplication of the coining machinery at the Tuint jn Carson, for which appropriation was made two years ago, has been completed and the coining capacity doubled, At the mint at Philadelphia, the annealing capacity having been found too limited, two additional furnaces have been erected and the coring capacity thereby increased. With these improvements the mints and Aseay offices are in a very efficient condition.

The other Commissioners ap- | | inated as President of the Board, Mr. F. J. Twomey ap- jing the demand and supply would juce & serious decline in the value of milver aud tn- usly affect our silver mining interests, To provide ‘a market for the silver mined in the western portion of our country s coin of a standard make it , in China was ant early in the following year, 1873. About years January, Tay Bubstitution of silver for the paper fractional currency was enacted. Upon o superficial examination of the trade dollar tt may be supposed to interfere with the plan of substituting silver for the fractional currency. Such, however, is not the case, its coinage not having the least effect on the general market price of silver. The real effect is to make something of a local market at San F , and if our annual production of that was not more than the ints could coin, silver on the Pacitic coast would command slightiy better rates, but the fact is the coining capacity of the mints for silver coms of less denomination than the dollar ts not equal to more than half the production, and the two years’ yield of the mines will, it is probable, furnish sufficient silver to manufacture all the fractional coin that can bo advantageously used in the country. After the redemp- tion of the fractional notes silver coins, with the excep- tion of the trade dollar, can only be issued under the coinage laws as exchange at par for gold coins, and as this limitation will be a barrier to their excessive coinage the demand for bullion for that purpose must, after two or three years, be quite small, The coinage rate of silver in trade dollars is $1 14.28 per standard ounce. One and a quarter per cent on the nominal value (equal to 142-100 cents per ounce) gives a return to the de- positor in that coin of nearly 113 cents per ounce. The fact that the average price of silver purchased for the fractional coins has been only $1 11.04 per standard ounce proves that the trade dollar coinage has not !n- fluenced the price to any perceptible extent Nearly all the silver bullion which finds market In San Francisco is from the Comstock mines, and con- tains, on an average, about forty-five per cent in value of gold. This bullion must be refined or parted before it can be manufactured into coin, and the most economical proportion of the two metals for the parting operation is two parts of silver by weight to one of gold. This class of bullion mmands a higher price in London than fine silver, tor the reason that gold containing a small percentage of stlver can be added and thus refined or parted withoutadditional costa, This bullion, if not parted with at San Francisco and Carson, is geuerally shipped direct to London as cover to exchange, and therefore cannot be made available | tor mintage at the New York Assay office and the mint at Philadelphia, Our true policy ts to miat this bullion in the United States, and since, if not parted on the Pa- cific coast it is exported to London, the trade dollar coinage should be coptinued, if for no other purpose than (o make a local market tor the silver. Ultimately, | China must have a national coinage of silver, | and in the meantimea more extensive use of the silver coins of other countries will be found useful not only to the Chinese bat likewise to foreign residents at the different ports. The American trade dollar has been well received in that Empire, and if authority were given to coin st our western mints five, ten, twenty and filty cent pieces of the same standard they would no doubt find aready market at the different commercial ports, and gradually work their way into the interior of the Empire. If this trade coinage should incidentally afford protection to our mining interests, which have already been injuriously affected by the fall in the value of silver, it could hardly be regarded other- ‘The director then proceeds to show the preparation mace for the redemption of the fractional currency un- afterward discusses at some length the occasional dis- turbances in the money markets of the world, which he attributes not to insufficient supplies of gold, but to its having been withheld in large sums from circulation and the diminished use of silver as money, attributal in the German Empire, by which an exclusive gold standard was established, and continues:— From what has been stated it will appear that gov- ernments, banks and exchange dealers have, during the period under review, becn purchasers of gold, which was likely to advance in value, and sellers of silver, which showed indications of a decline, gnd that the course of the-pretious metals during thé last two ears ny not been controlied by the ual influences previously operating, but by transac- tions of unnsual character and magnitude, involving, ag a necessary consequence, large and sudden transfers of coin and bulhon from one country to another, whicb, by raising or depressing prices created a wide field for speculative operations. Fortunately, such a condition of affaire recely.arioes, end cannot continue much longer. CITY HALL POLITICS. RUMORS AND GOSSIP—MAYOR WICKHAM’S PO- LITICAL FUTURE—THE SCHOOL COMMISSION- ERS’ APPOINTMENTS—OUR INCOMING BOARD OF ALDEEMEN—THE PROBABLE APPOINTEES. Mayor Wickham’s political fature, and the stand he will take either for or against Tammany Hall, are still subjects of considerable gossip and speculation around the City Hall, Those who are supposed to know all about the inner workings of the mysterious | Tammany Ring assert positively that “my candi- Then those who claim to view matters in amore phil- stantes, for those two gentlemen to “paddle the same canoe” at the same precise time, The “hissing” scene at Tammany’s ratification, the speeches of Park Commissioner 0’Donohue and Mr. Jobn Kelly himself on the labor question, evidently saddling the blame of reduction entirely on Mayor Wickham’s shoulders, are pointed out as events clearly proving aquarrel between His Honor and Mr. Kelly. But politicians have queer ways, They quarrel sometimes in public and smoke the pipe of peace in private, The dear people who dance to the music set for them and pay the fiddler look on bewilderingly at the pantomime, It is only when election comes that they can untangle the peca- iar knots so adroitly arranged for them by the poli- ticians, and send these gentlemen on a quiet trip up “Salt River,” to meditate upon what might have been | had they acted differently. THE APPOINTMENTS OF SCHOOL COMMISSIONERS, Over 200 applicants, appointments as School Commissioners, Of course a number have been disappointed, as only seven places were to be filled on the lst of January next. In ac- cordance with the law they had to be appointed by Mayor Wickham last week. The following gentlemen retire from office at that date:—Messrs. Samuel P. Pat- | terson, Charles V. Lewis, Albert P. Man and E, Jenkins, ‘These appointments of Commissioners have been the occasion of considerable comment around the Hall. ‘They do not materially change the complexion of the Commission as it present constituted. It is rumored, however, that a change in the clerkship may take place. ‘The presont occupant is Mr. Lawrence 0. Kier- nan, and for which Mr. Thomas Boose is said to be a candidate. Mr. L. G.

MEETING OF THE ‘'INDEPENDENCIA DB CUBA.” ‘The recent attention that has been called to the ‘Cuban question by the diplomatic correspondence be- ‘tween the United States and Spain caused a larger attendance than usual at the meeting of the Society “Independencia de Cuba,” held in Masonic Hals yesterday evening. This society was founded last February, with the ob- Ject of giving all possible material assistance to the Cuban cause without directly violating the neutrality ot the Unitea States. ts headquarters, or Junta. Directiva, are in this city, and there are brauches of the society in various parts of the country. Last night's meeting was conducted by the Presi- dent, Sefior J. J, Govantes, He opened the meeting with a brief review of the struggle in Cuba and spoke, ‘with the ardent spirit of his countrymen, of the growth of their society and the great power it could exert in favor ot Cuba Libre, The question was then raised of making a protest against the idea that Cuba should be governed by any other power than her own people. Sefior Antoni Molina made a violent speech against this idea, He spoke more practically of the way that the question had been treated by the press, The public journals looked upon Cuba as a “pill for the United States” and thought that her autonomy would be @ thorn in the side of the latter government. “That insulting periodical, the Hexaup,” he said, “has treated the question of Cuba with great Insolence. Cuba ought to be free and cannot belong to the United States. He, therefore, wanted to protest against what he called American insolence. Colonel Agramonte fol- lowed with a few remarks in a more moderate tone, but likewise against the “‘annexionistas” and in favor ‘of the absolute independence of Cuba, A decision in regard to a protest was not, however, arrived at, Colonel Queralta was next invited to give a description of the voyage of the filibuster Uruguay on its last ex- pedition to Cuba ‘This_he did in a very graphic man- her, relating her equipment, the privations endured by the sailors and the final ena of the expedition. He stated that the vessel and the arms taken on board were totally unfit for the urposes for which they were intended. In conclusion, be presented to the Secretary a letter from Mr. John B. Miller, an engineer on board the vessel, The letter showed that in his opinion the vessel was entirely unfit for a sea voyage when she last sailed. The average \d was from four to six knots an hour, and the ma- cbinery kept continually giving out. It would take $10,000 to put the Uruguay in good condition, and even then she would not meet all their expectations, He ad- vised the society, if in need of another vessel, to get one built in the Ship yardson the Clyde, in Scotland, where the work would be well and cheaply done, After a few other unimportant remarks the society adjourned until next Sunday, at the same hour and Jace, when the semi-annual elections for officers are to e held, TRISH NATIONALITY, A well attended meeting of advanced Irish national- ists was held last night in O'Donovan Rossa’s Hotel, The object of the meeting was to complete arrange- ments for lectures to be delivered in the Cooper In- stitute to-morrow night, The speakers will be Dr. ‘Thomas Clarke Luby, Mr. J, O'Donovan Rossa, General Thomas Francis Bourke and Dr. D. D, Mulcahy. All of these gentlemen have suffered long periods of imprisonment in Ireland and England for the parts which they played in the Fenian and Irish republican movement, which culminated in the seizure, 4m-Dublin, of the Jrish People newspaper, in 1865, and the abortive rising that took place in Ireland in 1867, From the well known character of the speakers and interesting nature of the occasion—the anniversary of the execution, at Manchester, in 1867, of Allen, Larkin and O’Brien—it is expected that there will be an iim- mense gathering to-morrow night, Since 1870, unul a short time ago, the advanced na- tionalists and the Home Rule League have been, it is understood, if not allied with each other, at least working inharmony. Of late, however, it is asserted since the constitutional agitators obtained control of the Home Rule League, this organization has, by degrees abandoned the doctrine of unconditional independence and bas fallen into the condition of mere parliament ary soreheads whose sole ambition seems to consist in badgering the British Premier and in trying to make their countrymen believe that they can talk English statesmen into granting legislative independence to Ireland. The difference between the out and out na tionalists and the home rniers will be debated to- mor- row night and resojutions will be adopted embodying the cardinal points of Irish national belief FIRES YESTERDAY. ‘About a quarter past four o'clock yesterday morning: fire was discovered in the large clothing store of James Marshall & Co., Nos. 807, 809 and 811 Broad street, Newark, avd an alarm was at once given, Before the Fire Department could reach the scene the flames burst forth from all parts of the building, and it was at once evident that the loss would be enormous, The firemen worked vigorously, and 60 well wero their efforts directed by Chief Engineer Brown that they succeeded in confining the flames to the stores oceupied by the firm named, The loss will, however, reach $75,000 or $50,000, which is insured tor $71,000, $10,000 of which ig upon the building. The stock of clothing in the store of Wateon & Co., which adjoins the burned build- ing on the south side, was damaged by water and smoke to the extent of about $3,000, which | ts covered by insurance. In the rear of these buildings @ situated several large factories, which at one time re in imminent danger but were saved through the exertions of the firemen. Although the fire occurred at such an early hour crowds of spectators soon sur- rounded the burning building, and during the day the ruins were inspected by thousands who thronged them from all parts of the city, The cause of the conflagration has not been ascertained, but it is believed to have been occasioned by a leaky gas pipe, as almost as soon as the fire was discovered an explosion took place, which shat tered the windows and glass doors in the front of the building and drove the flames far out into the street. The following are the insurances upon Marsball & Co,’s «+ $10,000 stock :— North British and Mercantile Insurance Co. SESSSE822252552 Phoenix, New York. Hoffman, New York Phenix, New York.

COLLISION OFF THE BATTERY. Yesterday morning, shortly before six o’clock, tho brig Eleanor Miller, Captain J. H. Hill, hailing from Nassau, N. P., and bound for Port Natal, Africa, with a general cargo, while at anchor off the Battery, ‘was run into by the barge Grenada, in tow of the tug Gladwich, ‘The brig was getting her anchor up to proceed on her voyage, The effect of the collision was to carry away tho brig’s bowsprit, ironwork and ail. The barge was also ' badly damaged. A survey of the Eleanor Miller will be held to-day. LONG ISLAND SHELL FISHERIES, ‘The Board of Supervisors of Suffolk county, in re- sponse to a call for some legislation tor the protection of the shell fisheries, have passed a resolation that “it sball not be lawful for any person or persons at any time to use any dredge for the purpose of taking didacy of Mr. John T. Agnew i backed by such power. ful inflaences and he is so well Atted for the place that he will probably gecure the prize. THR CHARGERS AGAINST THE POLICE COMMISSIONERS. Governor Tilden is reported to have recently stated to one of the defeated Tammany candidates for Senator that t would be impolitic at this time to remove the Police Commissioners. Ali movements of the Mayor in that direction must therefore be considered at an end for the present. SCALDED TO DEATH. Asad accident, resulting in death, happened yester- day morning to George Fitch, a machinist employea in | Delamav Jron Works, at the foot of West Thirteenth | street. Fitch was sent by his employers, at nino o'clock yesterday morning, to repair ono of the | boilera of the steamer Sante, lying at Thir- teenth street and North River. He had been at work aboat baif an hour, when one of the valves of the boiler burst, and he was {rightfully scalded abont the face and body, Roundsman Curtin, of the Harbor Police, arrived at the scene a few minutes after the accident ‘occurred and had the unfortunate man | romptly retsoved to the office of the Delamater Iron | orks, one block distant, Physicians were imme- diately called, but before their arrival Fitch had breathed his last. The deceased was thirty-five years | of age and resided at the corner of Fourteenth street | and Tenth avenue, FOG ON THE RIVERS, At balf-past five o'clock yesterday afternoon a dense fog settled on the North and Kast rivers and continued for two hours, during which the ferryboats were so delayed that but few trips were madé, No accidents posit 4 woaincr uh hy Wey Or.

A STELLAR WONDER. ‘The ocoultation of the planets Mars and Saturn oc- curred last evening and proved a very interesting spec_ tacle to those fortunate enough to noticeit, The astro. nomical phenomenon began at 7 P, a when the two- Janets formed a perfect triangle with two small stars in the tai of the constellation Capricornus and appar- ently only two-thirds of a degree apart. The two planets will not again cross each other's orbit im this visible manuer for many years, A “HUNGRY OTHELLO, Ellen Thomas, a young woman whose home is ever changing, called at the Eighth precinct station house last night and narrated to Captain McDonnell 4 sad talo of unrequited love. A short time ago she became ac- quainted with a colored man naimed Andrew Emmons, and between them there soon sprung up aregard which, before many days, ripened into love, Last night Andrew became jealous at some fancied wrong committed by bis sweetheart, and planned fiendish revenge. Concealing his designs with artful hypocrisy, he threw her off her guard, and when the hour of parting came she kisred him good night, As their faces met Andrew’s teeth plunged deep into the Nip of his Dulcinea, biting it nearly off. le Dow re- clines in a Prince street station house cell, while Ellen earries her lip in a sling NEWARK ASSESSMENTS. A recent decision of the Supreme Court of New Jer- sey upon about 200 cases which were certioraried pro. nounces the assessment for benefits of numerous street openings and improvemohts illegal, and the amounts which were so assessed revert to the city and must be paid out of the treasury until new assessments are made, Tho amount of indebtedness which is thus thrown upon the city is simply enor- mous, and is estimated at nearly $1,000,000. The exact amount cannot be ascertained for some time, An editorial of one of the Newark jour- nals Jays the blame of this trouble to the commis- sioners who made the assessments and to the legal advisers of the city, A HsRaLD reporter yesterday sought the opinion of one of the best informed lawyers in Newark, and one who has had much occasion to investigate this subject, and ascertained that the blame could not properly be laid at their doors, inasmuch as they had followed the practice which prevailed since the passage of the old city charterin 1857, The section under which the assessments were made is exceedingly ob- scure, and the erroneous construction was never ques- tioned until the case of Agens vs. the city of Newark, about two years ago, when the Court of Errors and Ap- peals decided that only the actual benefits could be as- upon the property intended to be benefited, and not the entire cost of the improvement, as had been the previous custom. The cases which’ were recently decided have been accumulating during the past two years until the amount involved has reached tho Startling sum mentioned. A PEER IN A POLICE COURT. Lord Houghton visited the Washington Place Police Court yesterday and sat upon the Bench with Judge Kilbreth during the disposition of the morning watch. He carefully noticed the manner of doing business, and expressed himeelf as somewhat surprised at the ra- yo and thoroughness with which such a large num- er of complaints were disposed of.

QUAIL NOT ON TOAST, (From the Virginia (Nev.) Enterprise.} After the Consolidated Virginia and Ophir works were in full blaze, a gentieman, whose residence is east of the Ophir shaft—and which residenco has been on fre several times—had finally given up that the house must be lost, aud had ceased further exer+ tion. Suddenly he was surprised to see a mountain quail light at his feet. In a moment the bird flew up to his breast and hton his vest. The man unbuttoned two buttons of his vest, when the bird ran beneath it and nestled close over his heart, He battoned his coat over the bird and then said to himself, “That means that my house can be saved,” and went to work again. Just then the uncertain wind changed, the volume of smoke was turned another way. The house was saved, and now, next to the children, the bird is the highest pieed treaspre jn phat Louse Wenberg.
