At the recent annual letting of tne mail service by the Post Office Department # large number of con- tracts were awarded to persons commonly known as speculating contractors—viz., men who make a bus! oss of taking contracts and sab-letting or employing thers to do the service at prices considerably below ‘what 1s paid them by the department. Local bidders who fail to secure the service for themselves and the local press complain bitterly of this as an fbuse, and often charge that these contractors Bre corruptly aided and abetted by persons in the Post Office Department, The Postmaster General is, however, powerless to prevent the state of things Complained of The law requires that ‘all contracts shall be awarded to the lowest bidder tending sufficient guarantees for faithtul performance.” If contracts are awarded to specalators it 1s, a8 any ne may Jearn by inspecting the records of the de- partment, because they are the lowest responsible Didders, and their success in obtaining large numbers et contracts is easily explained without supposing them to be in collusion with officials in the depart. ment, they make mail contracting « business and re- fluce ittoasystem. They obtain from the books ot the department, whieh are puvlic records open to in- ‘pection, the amount paid for tho service on each route, They calculate closely, and, expecting to ob- tain @ largo number of contracts, can afford to estimate for only a small profit on each route and thus succeed underbidding local bidders who expect large mar- gins of profit. Local bidders in many cases bid nigh for the service themselves and then make arrange- ments with the speculators to carry the mails for them at rates that leave the latter with their lower bid a margin of profit. Ifthey would work tor the depart- ment at the rates they accept from the speculators tno latter would not be so successful in securing contracts, NAVAL INTELLIGENCE, EXAMINATIONS FOR PROMOTIONS—CADET EN- GINEERS AT THE ACADEMY. i Wasuincrox, April 29, 1877, The Naval Board to exumino officers for retirement or promotion, which reassembled at the Navy Depart- ment op the 12th of April, have thus far examined Captains George M.

The evangelists Moody and Sankey closed thoir ‘work at the Tabernacle here to-day, at least for the Present. The day was gloomy and wet and the attend- ance was not as large as usual, though the evening Mecting was fully up to the average audience, SERMONS OF THK DAY. The morning sermon was upon Christ’s second com- ing and the afternoon and evening sermons upon God's ability to save and keep. The sermons wero addrossed to the young converts and were merely repetitions of the ones preached in New York at the closing services. THE VINANCIAL RESULTS, ‘The leaders in the movement here are much disap- pointed at the result financially. The public did not subscribe as freely as had been anticipated, and the great bulk of the money raised has been in individual subscriptions of a large amount. Five thousand dol- Jars remains to be raised, und this will probably be done by subscription at future meetings. SERVICES IN THN TABERNACLE.

Edited by Kennoth R. H. Mackenzie, IX deg. (onpiensaa) , honorary member of the Cavongate Kilivinning No. 2, Scotland. New York: J. W. Bouton. Mr. Mackenzie’s Masonic Cyclopodia is, without doubt, 4 most complete and practical volume, interest. ing alike to the Mason and the general reader, for its information covers a wide range and the com- piler makes a number of digressions from the the bare subject. There 1s little pertaining to Masoury that is not touched upon in this volume A great many of the facts are new and have been dug out only by patient Jabor, ‘and whatever there is in the book that is old is treated of in such a fresh style that it has the effect of bemg told for the first time, As the au- thbr soys in bis preface, many coliateral matvers have been Introduced, being of interest to a right compre- hensiou of the scope of Masonic science. While the craft, with all respect and aftection, has received a willing tribute at the writer’s hands, difficulties have “been presented and on open, critical spirit allowed; and if certain Jegends have been treated with « irce | method of inquiry, it has always been essayed to per- forin the necessary lubor with a due respect for the soperior knowledge of special points possessed by cx- perts in the various systems by which the spirit of Masoury has received expression. The writer shows thorough archwological and historical research in the field of hig labor, which has resulted in making a book which should be tn the hands of every Mason, Iursu Wir axp Wispom. New York: P. M. Haverty. Under the above taking title Mr, Haverty bas issued a work that cannot failto be interesting to our Irish fellow citizens, It i8 one of those works which com- bine the useful and the agreeable, being at once an almanac and a capital story book, The reading matter has been selected with excellent judgment, and, though preference \e given throughout to entertaining stories and incidents, the moro solid information has not been forgotten, Of spocial interest are tho short historical aketches, both religious and political, which givo a far botter insight into the charaoter of the Irish people than more lengthy or more profound disser- tations could do, A person wholly unacquainted with the past history of Ireland reading this series of se- loctions would, when laying down the book, possess a fair knowledge of that interesting country, and this quality should recommend it strongly to Irish-Ameri- cans desirous of obtaining intelligent ideas concerning the people from whom they have sprung. Stories of old wars are pleasantly relieved by the pleasant quips of Curran or the sarcasms of Swift. But it is in an- ecaotes of the Irish Church that the book is richest, and whoever takes an interest in the wondrous history ot that Western Church which relighted the lamp of Jearning and holiness in Europe will find in the pages of “Irish Wit and Wisdom” instructive and delightful reading. Miss Naxcy’s Prcrimace: A story of Travel. By Virginia W. Jobusoa, Now York; Harper & Bros. Miss Virginia W. Johnson is a young American lady who is still in ber twenties, and who improves with every book she writes, so that by the time she reacbes her tbirties she will have done a good work for the novel-reading world. Miss Johnaon has spent consid- erable time abroad, and the present volume ts a result of her travela Wo have no doubt that many of tho adventures here related hat been her own experience. We do not for a moment think that Miss Nancy, worthy woman that she ts, refers to Miss Johnson; we are not so ungallantas that, Miss Nancy Hawse, who is the {éeal “school marm,” is introduced to us as sho stands beside the bulwark of the steamer that bore her to a foreign land. The life on board the steamer is well described, and the wrock is depicted with a graphic pen, Miss Nancy in London, Paris, Rome, Monaco and other cities is an interesting sketch, One can readily imagine the feelings of Miss Nancy as the splendors of the Old World were opened up before ber inexperienced eyes, There aro two or three love stories runniug through the book, of which Miss Nancy’s is not tho Jeast intercsting, Brsar Laxa, By Alice Corkran, New York: Henry Holt & Co, The past week has not been very prolific in im- portant books, still the publishers’ milis have ground out a number that aro worth reading. Henry Hoit & Ca nave added a new story to their Leisure Hour series called *‘Bessio Lang,’ and written by Alice Corkran, This wuthor is new to us, and for that reason wo are the more surprised at the excellence of her work, She has been most fortunate in being intro- duced in the charmed circles of the Leisuro Hour series, where all is good wheat and where thero are nu husks. ‘ Bessio Lang” is a plaic, unvarnished tale of @ plain, unvarnished girl, and is very winsome in its simplicity, A young mau sprains his ankle and is laid up at the house of Dame Mar- tio, “a tall, hale old woman—ciean as the elder blossoms that spread their whiteness in front of her windows. Her sparo skirt is black, and over her chest a white linen ’kerchief 1s folded, Not a vestige ot hair cam be seen under the cap, the friliof which forms a frame to her face, * * * She is juss a ‘woman to be a mother of mep, but she is childless, In the joyous benevolence, in the eager liberality of her nature, she 18 the typical mother—the right womaa to be placed at the head of some order of sisters of mercy organizing and dispensing comfort, Here, at Car- beck, not a child is born that Mistress Martin has not helped into the world; she is nurse at every sick and dying bed; sho has assisted at every baptism in the village.” Dame Martin tells “Bill's story,” which ts the story of Bessie Lang to her young guest, who in turn tells it to the reader. The telling took place in the old damo’s “sanded kitchen, panelled with oak; a dark oak press and clock and a wealth of crockery about. ina high-back chair by the chimney corner Dame Martin sits; her {rilled cap shines out against the dark setting. Her sparo figure, her thin ant- mated {aco seem to fit into the frame- work that in the tre light assumes a sombre, homely beauty. She talks in the broad soft dialect of Cumberland, flavored wilh Scoten inflections, and terms borrowed from the schoolmasters of long ago.’? And so Dame Martin told the story of Bessie Lang.

You cannot #00 this; nor could I have geen it a few years ago, Still I go the way you go—treading the samo spiritual path you tread, The same eternal goodness gaides us all, but wo are separated, and walk on side by side, not knowing we are near; together in spirit, yet separated until death reunites us, Thea hope bids me say—in a world of realities, a world free from artless bigotry, of imaginary duties, of enthralment in the literal and | external—we shall meet again, aod Christ will neither spurn you nor me.” After several chapters of “an- | rest,"’ Mr. Mio tells us how he at last founa ‘true in- | wardness’’ in the Unitarian devomination, LITERARY CHIT-CHAT.

Woug Ching Foo then spuke at length of lis fuith, Many questions wore asked him during the couversa- tion, to allot which he replied promptly and point. edly. He stated that ne was not a Buudhet priest and had not been educated for one. It was his object to show the people of the United States that tho Chinese were not heathen, and t their religion was the same in ull essential points us that of the Christians. He thought that the principles Christ taught were most excellent, and feria be followed. ‘ihe Chineso people teit ve. grateful to the Americans for sending them mission- aries, and wished to send some bere 1 return, so that the people could iearn the true principles of Budd- ism, Speaking of the eternal damnation of all adit heathen, as beleved by the Baptist ministers, Woug Ching Foo stated that ‘‘our Alumgbty Father bad not intweoded to take care of a few persons and leave countl millions to perisb’’, God had pre- pared a religion for peopie suitable to them, and pa- ions that worshipped God after their own manuer wero as sincere as the Christian race, Man could and would be saved by sincerity of works, no m: whether he bad ever heard the name ot Jesus Christ or not, Tho missivnaries in China did great injustice to the nation .in the reports they sent home.

In this connection Mr, Depa referred to the Freo Church of Seotiand and ite influence on the religion there by the aid tt gave to youvg cburcn societies in providing them with Church buildings. The second proposition was 6 After turion proselyt that the Christian sanctuary is the source of the highest ti im the community, The influence that radiates from the Christian sanctuar, js a upiveral influence. The very presence of a churc! 1s asourco of inspiration, aud the last thing thata new settlement cau do without is a church, 1p santuary 18 represented to man the higher mercy and justice of God, Its transcendental fleld is Christ and ‘Dis cross. Christian sanctuary is the great in- strumentality by which the best efforts of new com munities aro rightly directed. From no other place con go much come that ie beneticial to the community. As a propagandist of truth and an agent of charity, it stands without a rival The forces which’ are to rogenerate world are tound every Sunday in the Christian sanctuary, and the securing of one by new communities 18 often dependent on outside aid. Mr, Dana hero made an eloquent appeal for liborality in the matter, that the heathen nations spend fur more on their temples than do the Christians, He sald that tho pro- portion of influential persons who are doimg abso- lutely nothing for the spread of religion is alarmingly large, and deprecated that tact. ‘The services were concluded by a prayer from Mr, Hepworth and a bymn sung by the congregation. THREE SAVAGES. DRUTAL OUTRAGE AND ATTEMPTED MURDER IN A VOURTEENTH WARD TENEMENT HOUSE— THE BRACKEN GANG. For a long time a gang of young rufflans, under tho leadership of the Bracken Brothers, of Mott stroot, one of whom, with his confederate Hanley, has just been sentenced to two years’ imprisonmont, has flour- ished right ander the noses of the authorities at the Central Office, committing all sorts of depredations on peaceful citizens from time to time, and rarely, if ever, getting punished, Again these young scoundrols have been guilty of one of the most savage and cruel outrages ever perpetrated in the Fourteonth ward, Four poor people, the Connor family, live in one of the miserable rookerios in the contre of the block bounded by Houston, Elizabeth, Prince street and the Bowery, The rookery ts approachable only by a low, dark alleyway. The family consists of old Mr. Connor, his wife aged filty-two, bis daughter Margarot about twonty years old and his boy eleven ortwelve. Thoy are frigttfully poor, their apartments having bare floors and po chairs, The only furniture visible last night was a table, a small stove and a box. ‘Three pictures, however, hang on the walls. On Wodnesday week the old man was absent from home until nine P. M. with his boy. The mother and daughter were alone and in bed. Tho night being cold and cheerless they had rotired early for warmth and companionsbjp, and they had not been covered up many minutes when a rap was given by some one at the outer door. “Who is there?” said the old woman. “A triend,” was the reply in a wnan’s voice, riend or no friend,” answered the old woman, “you can’t come in’? “Well, if we can’t come in by the door,” savagely. Tojoined the Intruder, ‘‘we will through the wall’? And tbereupon the scoundrel began to kick away the plustering aud laths of the miserable partition, He had knocked a hole two feet and a halt square in it, when the daughter Margaret, in alarm, whispered to her mother that she had beter open tho door lest the fe should break down the wall altoget! The girl then arose donned some of hor apparel, and, taking the candle in her hand, opened the outer door, demanding what the intruders’ business might be. Sho rudely thrust back into the apartment and throe men entered. They wore John Bracken, John McGill and John Miller, aged | about twenty and twonty-one yi ola. McGill ana Miller are said to be sboeblacks, who" ply their calling, when they are not thieving, on Broadway, ‘The ruffians seated themselves either on the table or box. MoGuli then got up and went out of the room for @ moment, Tho girl tremblingly asked what the other two wanted and was answered by a hourse laugh, McGill then returned and without any further parley snatched the candle and hurling it against the wall put it out, Ho and Miller next dashed into the old woman’s room, dragged 'e clothing off and committed’ an outrage 0 Bradden in like manner assaulted threw ber over the jargaret, stove und alter a bitter stiuggle succeeded in his tlendish purpose. The neighbors above aud below heard the noise of the struggle but were airaid to interfere in what they thought was a family quae ic Mad the ruffans wit were not deterred or interfer Furious with Drutal passion they tore the bituds (rom the windows, get fire tothem and covered the old woman with the blazing articles.

The father and son revurned a tow minutes after the miscreants flew to find the poor females in their misery. The old wowau was in a sad phght and needed immediite attention. It was feared that she would die daring the night; but old Mr, Connors was not able to communicate with the police, His whole time was occupied in alleviating and reassuring the two women, His daughters had slight hemorrhages of tho lungs all through the succeeding night and day, go that it was quite a while cre the father could report the affair to tho Contral Office. When ne did, he iv- formed a H&egaLp reporter last eveniag, he was told to go to court and obtain a warrant for tho arrest of ed atstpis Bh tage aid him e the fellows. Astour m his search for justice, went to Jel- jerson Market, but because tho id happened in the Fourteenth precinct he was directed to goto the Tombs and get his warrant there.

Thethird annual convention of the Catholic Young Men’s National Union will be held in this city on Wodnesday, May 30, prox., at De La Salle Institute, Nos, 48 and 50 Second avenue, The exercises will commence at ten A. M. The New York Union, of which Rev. Edward ‘I. McGinley is president and William Connolly and Patrick Gleason secrotaries, bas issued an address to Its confreres throughoat the United States, In that address the Union says the growth of the Catholic Church in this country has been truly won- derfal, but its continued existence and advancement must depend in a great measure, the Union thinks, upon tho loyalty of the young men. The Church, thoy say, 18 eurrounded by influences hostile to the faith, and to provide against misrepreseutation they think organized eifort is necessary, They theretore urge the formation of socieues of Catholic young men where none now exist and the strengthening of those thai do exist. There are several such societies in the United States which are not affiliated in tho National Union, 11 is the purpose of the address, therefore, to membership are tho certiticato of the Bishop or pastor ol any church of parish where such society is organ- proved by him, and then the payment of $5 wnoual jeo for memberanip. These formalities having been attended to cach society ts then entitled to three vows, to be cast by three delegates und three alte bates, or any smalier vamber that may be sent to wo National Convention, The general move- ment, this addrees says, has quickeped and stim- ulated local efforts, und ubey offer in proof the fact that New York city, which had oignt #oc.eties prior to the first convention of the Natioual Union two years ago, has now nineteen, And this marked snerease 1s due 11 great measure to the spirit infused by the two preceding conventions, Members il union secieues travelling for business or das guests by such societios Wherever jocated, so that Catholic young «mon will thus have social advantages vot olberwise attanable, The New York Union extends a cordial welcome to any delegates that may be sent here next month, sud the Reception Committee, of which Mr. M.
