Wash, cor.. Philadelphia Times, . The oflBcersof the present adminis tration are very - quick to discover the shortcomings of their predeces sors and numerous suggestions are made by them of much v needed res forms, not only in regard , to civil service changes, but in - the '-manner of conducting the routine of business so as to secure greater' economy and 'protection against "fraud " upon the go verninent. . A. prominent treasury official said today that the method of keeping.books and files and f of ; con ducting the general office husiness jn the departments had not kept pace with the times, but is the same as that in vogue when the government was first organized. No matter how inconvenient, the old, methods have been transmitted from ad ministry tion to administration, while the methods in private business- have been constantly improving. Some, of these methods have' cost the govern ment millions of dollars, not only m the way of; involving greatexpense, but because they give opportunity for aetuiU fraadupon the govern ment. ; ' For instance, as3rerieral Rosecrahs, the present Register of the Treasury , said today, no precaution whatever is taken to prevent the duplicatidti of bonds or treasury notes should the plates fall into dishonest hands, and he says the govemtoent has paid out millions of dollars in the redemption of bonds and notes which have been plates. In 1871 du Asheville Advance: Over 500 Fed eral Court witnesses have been dis charged and received their per diem and milleage.1 IThe amountlpaid out .at this term ot court by the Grovern ment for the attendance of witnesses will aggregats not less than ten thou sand dollars.

Concord Times : On Monday night of this week, the 16th inst., Mrs. S J. Pemberton, of Albemarle, was sitting by a table in her room reading a let ter from her husband, who was ab sent on a trip North. Her three lit tle cnildren were playing around her when it is supposed ; one of them ac cidently knocked the. lamp from the taoie. 5 it expioaed, and in a moment Mrs; Pemberton s clothing -caught fire and her screams soon brought to the scene Mr. T. J. Jerome, who was in his room up stairs. Wheniie reached the unfortunate lady her clothing was all ablaze, ana, he was unable to extinguish it till two other gentlemen came to her assistance. jKOCKingnam Kocket: ine circus has given our . town . the goby this season, but the ntxt thing to it was t he passage through our streets oh J Tuesday, of the Placerjgoldj mining machinery which was shipped by rail to, this point, ;,and is, being con veyed on' wheels to the Christian Mine in-Montgomery county,' where it will be -operated: A- number of wgohs and about 28 horses are em- ployed in hauling it. .

It is impossible to tell the amount or greenbacks which have been redeem ed y the government which were fraudulently taken from true plates. A record is kept of the redemption of. bonds by nuxsiber. and designation and of their cancellation, but no re cord is kept of greenback notes. Consequently, there, is no way to prevent the redemption ot any mims bor of copies of the same bmk note. When a private bank contracts for the printing of its notes the contrac tor is made responsible for any du- piicauons, anu il a uupiicaie ra uis covered the contractor i. to pay for it. But the government has no re ooerse. The General suggests that the present administration should begin a new -series of notes, with all the modern improvements as to pa per, style and form, and that pre cautions similar to that adooted by private banks against duplications should be taken. v Jt-is now a toirpbly well ; 'Assured fact s that the our cityibeforeZ'many weeks.

' ' iu' OFFERED IN i ( M Kisses 1y Mail. U. S. MaJ. A young postmaster of a village post otHce was hard atkwork when a gentle tap was heard lupon the door, and in stepned a bashful maiden of 16, witrh a money order, which she desired cashed. She handed.it to the official with a bashful smile, who af ter close! v examining it handed her the money it called for. At the same time be asked her if she had read what was written on the margin of the order. "No I have not," replied the girl, "for I could not make it out. Will you please read it for me?" The young postmaster read as fol lows: : ,: : . , "I send you three dollars and a dozen kisses." Glancing at the bashful girl he said: "Now, I have paid you the money and now'I suppose that'you want tbe kisses.";--. - ''' "Yes," she said, "if he has sent me acy kis&es I want them too. . It is hardly necessary to say that the balance of the order was prompt ly paid, and in a scientific manner at that, and, eminently satisfactory .to the country maiden, for she went out of the office smacking her; lips as if thera was a taste upon them she nevr er encountered before. 1 After she arrived home she said to her mother : 1 ' i"' ": '.
