21. William Burnett, Saperrlslng Inspector General of steam reeeela, baa made bl report of the steam inspection aarrico lor the fiscal year ending; with Jane 30, 1873, to tb Secretary of tbo Treasury. The aerrlce at tbat date consisted of a total of 103 officers and clerks, aa follows: One aaperrieing insoeetor general, resident at Washington tea suoerrlaiag inspectors, thirty-six local Inspectors of boilers, thirty-six local inspectors of buna, eight assistant local inspectors of boilers, four assistant local inspectors of balls, eight clerks to local Inspectors. The following table shows the number of steam Teasels Inspected, their aggregate tonnage, aad tba officers licensed for the serersl division of narigatioa therein designated Dtrislons. Steamers.

Tbo number of accidents which resulted in loss of life were Explosions or accidental escape of steam, 14 fires, collisions.

snags, wrecks, and slaking, 11. making a total anmber of accidents 36. The Superintendent aaya It will bo eeen from the abors statements that total of 405 brae bare been loat on merchant steam Teasels of the United States during the last fiscal year, but to oar own eitisena tho lose of life for the same period ha been only 801, wbicb is aa un usually email anmber. While there were thirty -six disasters to steam Teasels by which lifs waa loot, yet a tingle one of these resulted in tb loss of more than half the lire here recorded. I refer to the burning of tbo a teem -ship Japan at aea off Swa-tow, China, by which the 11 res of 800 Chinese and four other persona were destroyed.

There were fourteen case of explosion or accidental escape of steam, one of wbicb resulted in the death of twenty persons, aad another six, while only twenty-fire persona were lost by tbo remaining twelrs. There were six burnings of steamers by which life; was lost 304 were lost by one of these and forty -firs and twenty respectirely by two others, while only four persons were lost by the remaining three. As ao bounds eaa be set to the damage wbicb may accrue to tbo yesael and persona on board, oa tbo occurrence of sack disss ten, orery effort should properly bo msds to place within the reach of persons thas imperiled such means of safety aa human ingenuity can darise. This baa been moat liberally done by legislation. Bat, added to thia, tbo entire prereotion of soon disasters, by which bota tho greater aad lesser calamities would be aroided.

ahould, ao a first aim, engage the efforts of orery officer of tbo aorrica, oacb being held to the strictest accountability for the performance of bis duty with rlgilanee and discretion rela-tire to certain kinds of disaster, the attsinment of tbia end la far from impost ibis. Accidents by explo-alon, fir, aad tn general by collision are folly with in remedy and may bo prereoted by the exercise of onperior skill and watchhilaeaa by inspectors and effioers of the TesseL If en emoloyod ia the daily routine of tbo direct management of steam reeaela, aad whose minds are absorbed la the practical business wbicb they have in hand, become almost necessarily unmindful of ths danger with which they are con Usually surrounded, and of tbo means pro-Tided by law for the safety of life In ease of accident, allowing each appliances to become deranged aad displaced. Tbey require to bo frequently reminded of tbo consequences of sack neglect, and for tola porpoa it hi essential that tbo In pectorr shall make frequent flails of examiaatioB, conferring freely with tbo officer of such Teasels ta regard to their management aad the necessary discipline to bo maintained oa board aad It will be found tbat whoa met in a proper spirit each officers or ia areneral aot only wllllag but desirous to ooafoim to all the reasonable demands or a argestioos of Inspectors. Their co-ops ratios is also of tba greatest importance to the eerriee, aa through strict atteatioa to tbo duties of their serersl stations tba best result are only to be secured. Zho Superintendent aaya it ia af tbo utmost lm-PoiIsim to the ib nee that tts officers ahould be mea of large experience and thoroughly quahflei for tbo performance of their duty, and be makes varioua reoommondaUona to lmprore the cQciency of tho ssryiss THE WEATHER.

The complete official returns of the rote of Minnesota, at the election held on the 8d inst show that for Gorernor the rote was as follows: John 8. Plllabary. Republican, 47,191 D. L. Baell.

Democrat, 33.173; Republican majority, 12,018. The total rote waa 83,364. The total rote for Gorernor at the last election, in 1873. waa 78,003, and the majority of Got. Dsns, Republican, waa bnt 5,519.

46,190 Jones 34,680 Chiet Justice Gilflllan. ..47,131 .34.542 Railroad Marshall. .45,742 BonniweU.35,167 Of the tour proposed amendments to the Constitution of the State three were ratified and one rejected. The ene rejected waa intended to exteud to the atockboldera of all corporationa a pririlege of exemption from personal liability, wbicb by a pre-Tioua amendment bad been granted to ths stockholders of manufacturing and mechanical corporationa, but which by a blunder ef phraseology waa made Tirtually to repeal tbat amendment, and to ex-. eept manufacturing corporationa from the exemption while extending it to others.

The other amendment were all carried by large majorities. One giree the Legislators power to increaae the number of Judree in any Judicial district. Another pro-Tides tbat any woman of twenty-one years of age and upward may rote at any election for choosing officers of schools, or on any measure relating to acboola, or may be elicible to any office pertaining to the management of schools. The third requires tba Legislator to proride fbr the InTestment of the principal of the school fund in ban da of the United States, or of tae State of Minnesota of a date oubeeqnent to I860, or or anr other State, aa the Legialaiu-e may direct. Tbia amendment supplies a curious omission in the Constitution of the State, which baa heretofore contained no proriaion in regard to the iBTestment of the school funds, farther than the general requirement tbat the principal ahould forerer remain inviolate.

THE MIXED RESULT IN WISCONSIN. The official returns from Wisconsin show that the Republicans bare defeated Got. Taylor, who was a candidate for re-election, but that the other State officers elected are Democrata. The rota for Gorernor was aa follows Harrison Lnddiogton, Republican, William R. Taylor, Democrat, Republican majority, 831.

Tbs total rote ia 169,461, against 147,623 In 1873, when Gor. Tsylor waa ejected by a rote of 81,633 to 66.823 for Calwallader C. Washburn. Republican. Tbe Demoeratio majority then was 13,412, showinr a Republican rain of 16,243 In two years.

N. Tuesday, Nor. 16, 1375. At a tune when tbe spirit of reform is rampant, tbe people naturally desire to learn all that can be learned of the history ot the frauds and stealings to which the public treasury and rerenuea bare been subjected in the few years past. There are many important facts which are not likely to be reached by any lorestlgating commission, but which are Just aa eicnificant aa though they were heralded by a "report" telegraphed or or the State.

It is not alone canal officials who hare been plundering tho State for tbelr private enrichment. Tbe rlrus of dishonesty baa to a considerable extent affected tbe people, and many who get tbelr tiring and make tbelr money aa shippers and forwarders on ths canal bare been guilty of defrauding the State of Its canal tolls. A Terr auperficlal lnreetl gallon would show that at timee of high tolls it baa been a quite common practice with many of these persons to bribe tbe welgh-master to under tats the weight of freight thus, of eourae, making th amount of toll fees than it ahould be. Those who are familiar with tbe manner In which canal business is transacted will readily understand the opportunities that are presented for this kind of praotioe. The shipper reports the amount of frelgbt on bis boat at tbe point of shipment.

Tbe flguree are Inserted la the clearance or bill of lading apon tbia report only, although I bare beea informed tbat it bow the practice at Buffalo to require the shipper to swear to its correctness. Tbe teet is applied when tbe freight comes to the wei gh-m aster. If the cargo la found to exceed tbe clearance tbe shipper must pay toll on tbe dif- ference tn order to make tbe State good. Bat if the welgh-master can be induced, for a consideration, to welch the freight exactly according to the clearance, tbaa tb shipper ssres tbe toll and tbs State ia defrauded. Inrestigatlon leads to the belief tbat tola kind of cheating baa been systematically going oa during seasons of high tolls.

I beliere that in aome esses it baa been done by canal-boat Captaina on their own responsibility aad ai lastly approTed by owner in other cases I bare reasoe to beiiere tbat tbe practice baa been directly enooaraeed by shipper and forwarder. A few daya ainee I met a respectabl boatman on tbe Ene Canal, who Informed me that in' 1909 he had on at least two occasions paid money at the weighing office at Rochester to a cargo under weighed, ao aa to correspond with the clears nee, ones paying $5 and ones 910. Be erea showed me a letter in the band-writing of hia employer' clerk at that rime, girlng him instruction about tbe method of procedure, and telling him to try dollar or so on tbe welgh-master if he should orerrnn. Tbe man slated that be reported these payments to bta employer 'a clerk, and waa allowed for them on aetUemeut, He waa asked to make affidarit of the facta, and did ao without hesitation, and possibly something more may be heard of thia particular ease. I auppoeed that thia waa a Terr exceptional transaction, aad that tbe forwarders who would be willing to cheat tbe State and corrupt its officials in this way were tew and tar between.

When I began to mention the matter I waa soon enlightened. Why." said one blunt-apokea "canaler," I nope you don't think there's anything astonishing about tbat I I'rs done it often." Another an extensire shipper heard my statement with a knowing smile ana a quiet assurance that there waa nothing un usual aboat it. And I em told by men who are and bare been ia a poeitioa so know by common report, at least, tbat this kind ef fraud baa beea Tery ex-ten si rely practiced. Facte ta connection with thia eubject bare come to me In sorb a shape, and ao well atteated, tbat I do most thoroughly beliere that tbe State baa beea ebeated out ot hundreds of tbouaanda of dollara in tbia way. At thia time of low tolla tbe martet may be of no present importance.

If canal tolls should be raised it will become of great moment. THE UXIOX LEAQCX. Wasbtsgtox, Xot. 21. The Union League ef America is aboat to incorporate a aew feature ia tts platform.

MOODY AND SANKEY COMMENCE THEIR WORK THOUSANDS UNABLE TO GAIN ADMISSION TO THE BUILDING PREPARING FOB THE HARVEST. from Our Own Corrttpondnu. Philadelphia, Sunday, Nor. 91, 1873. Moody and SanVev hare come at last, and the residents bereshout, who bsvs been waiting anxiously for their appearance for a month past, were gratified this morning.

A hesry north-east, storm prevailed, but it did not deter some nine thousand persons from attending tbe meeting at the old Penn-aylranla Railroad Freight Depot, Thirteenth and Market streets. These were principally of tbe church-going class. In the afternoon the rain settled dowa to a drizzle, and the scene then wss one which Philadelphia seldom witnesses in point of curiosity. The services were announced for 4 o'clock, and at 3 o'clock it became necessary to close the doors, aa about thirteen thousand persona were In tbe building, and as many more outside unable to gain admission. The afternoon sudienoe partook more of the nature of the non-cborch-goiDg people.

The choir waa composed of some six hundred voices, nnder tbe direction of Prof. William G. Fischer. Mr. ankey acting as leader.

Mr. George II. Stuart and Mr. John Wanamaker bad general direction of the meetings, and the conveniences afforded tbe public were very good. The morning aession was opened without any formality by an introduction by Mr.

Moody, wbo announced that tbe Coronation Hymn" would be sung, and Invited the sudionos to join in, which was done with considerable vigor. Rev. Richard Newton, D. (Episcopal,) inroked the blessing of tbe Almighty upon the success of the re viral. Tbe choir end Mr.

Sankey then sang one of his hymns. Following this Mr. Sankey secured quiet in the audience by the solo Sowing tbe Seed by tbe Daylight Fair." Mr. Moody followed in aome desultory remarks concerning the order he wished exercised, and tbs hymn Ring the Bells of Hearen I There is Joy To-day," was rendered by the audience. Mr.

Moody called attention to tbe thirty-fifth rerae of the fourth chapter of the Gospel of St. John, taking from it bis text. Before proceeding to expaclate upon tbe text, be aaid there may be many asking ths question. What is tha meaning of the revival meetings! Are there nothurchea enough in tbe city and answered by saying, we hare only come to help. Tne preacher waa aaked the question in Kurope, what he thought ot tbe algna of the won in America.

Judging from tbe inclement eat ber, and tbe laree nnmoer present be thought the eigne for the work in this city were good, lie desired tbe sympathy of Sabbath-school teachera and Superintendent in the work, and hoped tbe meeting would result in filling the echoola. Tbe course of teacbera learing their scholars because tbey happened to be little bora or siris. be seriously deprecated: for who knew but that one of these children should become a great worker for tbe Lord! Mr. Moody stopped short in bi sermon, and requested Mr. Sankey to sine ths hymn, Hark, 'tis the Voice of esus Cryine-" Tbe meeting waa then dismissed with tbe benediction.

After sinning seTeral hymns, Rir. J. Wbeston Suiita. D. (Baptist, opened tbe afternoon service with prayer, end Mr.

Moody read a portion of tbe first chapter of tbe Book of Joshua, in which God is related to have directed Joshua to be of good courage. Mr. Sankey sing the solo. "Whet Means This Eager, Anxious Throng I Mr. Moody ssid that tbe meetings during tbe present week, in the morning, would be for Christian workers, tbe ides being tbst tbe laborers in tbe good work should infuse tbe fire into each other's hearts.

He then spoke upon Courage and Enthusiasm," as evidenced in the case of Joshua. God, he aaid, did not hsre men in hia employ whose courage was not good, and wbo would not battle for His canse with all their might. Joshua bad taken God at ilia word, and waa aucceaarul at all times, because he knew upon whom he could rely. Mr. Moody used this comparison, and also tbat of tbe action excited by politicians srbo desire to gain victory for their party, in agitating a whole city or country.

He thought to be ancceasfui in this re-viral tbe people ot Philadelphia must in a measure follow tbe example thus set item only their King, the person whom tbe Christian beiierer is working lor, can repay tbrm better. Next to courage came enthusiasm. and the speaker know that if the proper spirit once secured poeeession of tbe Christian workers here st least 10,000 persons would be brought to tbe fold. He concluded bv calling upon Mr. Sankey to aing the hymn Hold the Kurt," the congregation joining in the chorus.

This was the first time tbe popular bynin had been suns- Bishop Peck, ot tbe Methodist Conference, pronounced tbe benediction, and the aaenblage wss diamiaaed, flUins. the atreets in the neighborhood and presenting ao animated scene ia the business section of the city, which is usually rery dull on the Sabbath.
