The Postoffice Department Self-Sup-pornng. Baltimore Sun. The net income of the postoffioe de partment for the year ended June 30, 1882, was about Sl,500,000, the receipts exceeding expenditures by that amount. Excess of expenditure over income was rare from 1790 to 1838. After the latter date the wider extension of the mail service over sparsely-settled territory made deficiencies not uucommou, and the reduction from time to time of the rates of postage had the effect at length of making a deficiency the rule rather than the exception. From 1816 to 1845 a letter carried not over 30 miles paid 6)4 cents; carried over 80 and under 150 miles it paid 12 cents, and if the letter weighed as much as an ounce fourtimts these rates were charged. The r-ites, it will be observed, were closely proportioned to the weight of the mail matter and the distance it was carried, tl e idea t-f a uniform rate not being approved at that time as a prac ticable one. In 1851 the 3 cent rate was reached for distances less than 3,000 miles, and in 1803 the limitation lor distance was abolished, and the rate was made uniform. Under this sys tem deficiencies were a matter of course that of 1860 amounting to $10,500,000. Owing to the restriction of the service during the civil war to the densely populated Northern States, it became again Self-supporting, and in 1863 there was a surplus of $2,800,000. After the war deficiencies again became the rule, and have continued up to the present year, diminishing, however, from year to year as the country became more thickly settled. The immediate cause of the surplus reported was the detec tion of the famous star-route knaveries. It was estimated that the service need ed for the year just past $8,200,000; its actual cost was $5,900,000. Now that the department is making money, it no longer has any tolerable reason to offer for the bad state of the service in Vir ginia and other sections of the South. The Snn has often had occasion to complain, in the first place, that for want of sufficiently liberal compensa tion to the railroads out of Baltimore, as well as fjom the lack of local inter est on their part in arranging schedules this city's mails are unreasonably de layed ; in the second place, that such persons are in many cases employed for postmasters and post agents in parts of the South that the ordinary duties of the postoffices are not decently per formed. The Morey Letter. Wash Cor. Baltimore Sun. It is understood here that nothing more will ever be heard of the Morey letter business, and that the recent boom on that subject sent out from New York is Mr. Davenport's last ef fort. It is said he has expended of other people's money about $30,000 in vestigating the Morey letter mystery, and that it is more of a mystery now than when he began to unravel it. Finding that no one would advance any more money to continue the investiga tion, the whole thing is ended with a flourish of trumpets and insinuations in regard to the bottom facts and what they will show, if further developed. The best politicians of the Republican party in both brandies of Congress took even stronger grounds on the Chi nese question when that subject Was under debate in Congress last spring than were taken in the Morey letter. This was notably the case in the speech of Judge Taylor, Garfield's successor in the House. The general tenor of the speech of the advanced Republicans wa3 that if Garfield did not write the Morey letter he should have written it. There were few in the debate who en deavored to show that Garfield did not write the letter in question, Page, of California, being the only Republican who spoke of the Morey letter as a forgerv. There are a great many more persons who now believe that Garfield wrote the letter than there were during the excitement on the subject. All are well satisfied in regard to one thing, however, and that is that investigations do not always investigate, and that if an investigation was made into the ex penditure of the money in connection with the Davenport investigation, it would be even more interesting than the Morey letter business itself, which was so full of sensation in a political way. If it was true, as said, that Sims had cheated 800 negroes out of their votes, he was the very man they wanted, so that he might cheat for the negro a while.

New York, October 8-Mr. Patrick Ford, editor of the Irish World, New York, on Friday last sent by cable a draft to Patrick Egan, treasurer of the land-league, at Pans, for $17,424 81. Mr. Ford says this is tne last remit tance and the fund has closed because "there is no longer a land-league in ex istence." This declaration has caused much commotion in land-league circles. Dr. Wallace, president of the national league, says he does not think this ac tion of Mr. Ford will cause the dissolu tion of the land league organizations of which he (Wallace) is president. The matter was discussed at the meeting of branch No. 1 of the league at Buffalo to-night. A motion of confidence in the league was proposed, but it was withdrawn to await advices from Ire land. Mr. A. M. Sullivan is expected to deliver an address in Buffalo on Satur day, and his views as to the status of the land league will be solicited. Branch No. 1 resolved to send $1,000 to Father Walsh, the treasurer of the na tional league. The investigating committee of the Fenian skirmishing fund made its ie port to-day to the subscribers. They say they discovered that the alleged forged check given dy O'Donovan Ros sa to Mr. Breslin was neither forged nor dishonored, and that when drawn there were sufficient funds in the bank to meet it, but these funds had been at tached by the sheriff. On September 26, 1876, there was $1,200 in the Bowery National Bank, which on October 5th was attached by Kelly and McCrea. October 9th the bank paid Kelly & Mc Crea's claim for $141.65, with costs, leaving over $1,000 from which the check would have been paid after Octo 9th, as Rossa's account was good until July, 1877. In relation to the $2,030.90 expended on John Mahoney's funeral they find it was drawn by Rossa as president of the Brotherhood, on Breslin. Rossa said that when the Fenians sent dele gates to Ireland with the remains, John Devoy asked that a similar honor be extended to the Clan-na-Gael. Each society asked for $1,000 from the skir mishing fund, the Fenian Brotherhood guaranteeing one loan and Devoy the other. Checks were given, but some members of the Brotherhood were ready to swear that the organization never received more than $150 of the amount. A member of the meeting said enough evidence had beerTproduc ed to send the trustees to State prison, and that threats had been madfr against him and others of the committee that they would be laid out if they attend ed to-day's meeting. The committee said further that they weie in posses sion of an itemized account of all the alleged expenditures, five of which items purport to explain away $30,000. One of these was for the twelve thous and dollar Fcrd loan. The entire five were false. A resolution was adopted declaring that the Irish World had "done a noble thing in closing its columns to that latest delusion, the land league" The committee's investigation is not yet finished. Gen. Butler Accepts. Boston, Oct. 7 Gen. Butler, in his letter to the Democratic committee, says that he had not desired to be a candidate, and continues: "After a conference with my friends and clients, and waiving all considerations of per sonal sacrifice, I think it my duty to accept the very high honor and the op portunity to do great service which the convention has tendered me. I fully concur in the declaration of principles and measures in the resolutions of the convention. They seem to me to enun ciate the principles of the Democracy of Jefferson, Madison and Jackson. While I do sometimes change relations with those with whom I act politically, I am not conscious of ever having changed the principles upon which I have acted, save as I have learned to discard errors by riper judgment and instructed conscience. All the issues of national politics of which the war was the result, or which grew out of it, and the adjustment of its consequences have now, or ought to have, passed away." Gen. Butler discusses at length the leading issues before the people. Of the tariff and other taxation the General says: "Theoretically free trade that is, buying what you need cheapest and selling what you have dearest every wherewould be true statesmanship in a country so situated that it might be carried out, but with the United States that is impossible. So large a sum for many years longer than man's life will be required to be raised by the customs revenue that all needed pro tection to American labor can be given to it within the limits of a tariff raised solely to meet the wants of the govern ment. In raising such a reve nue there thould be no tax whatever upon the necessaries of life, including in that term everything used by our whole people for their support, comfort and necessities." Gen. Butler says in accepting the labor nomination : "I can congratulate your convention that hereafter you may well lay aside the word 'greenback' as a designation of your party, unless you keep it in re membrance of the fact that you took it upon you when conferred by your ene mies as a title of reproach. In behalf of the 'greenback' or legal-tender note your labors are done, and the mission of your party is as completely fulfilled as is the mission of the Republican party, which was the abolition of slav ery. The 'greenback' is now the money of the United States, and is the equal of gold and silver." Where to Get Intoxicated. Chicago News. Tom Corwin once advised a friendas follows: "Is it not singular that one never realizes the pernicious effect of hot rooms, wines and viands until one encounters the pure air of heaven V I left the room as sober as a J ustice of the i Supreme Court. I got a whiff of pure air, and I am affected by it. A man, my boy, never feels so much like moralizing as after an indulgence, when his stomach is full of good food and his veins aie fired with generous wines. This drinking is a vile thing. It is an iudulgence that gives less pleasure and is followed by a heavier penalty than any other poor, fallen nature is subject. Take away the lights, the laughter, the flowers and the food, the flow of wit and flashes of thought, and what can we credit to the wine? a sense of hav ing made a beast of one's self, punctu ated with a headache. Take my ad vice, my boy, and never get drunk. There is no good in it, but much evil. It fills our jails, poor houses and shame less graves. It feeds the gallows, and beggars wives and children. Never drink ; but if you do now mark my advice and take it to your memory as something precious from a friend if you must get drunk, get drunk among gentlemen. You will have a headache all the same, but you will retain your self-respect.
