Wasainoton, April 27.?The Treasury
Department has. issued an order arrang?
ing all tho customs collection districts of
the United States into seven divisions,
to each of which a general appraiser is
assigned. The Eastern District of Mary
. land is included in the third division, to
f which tho general appraiser at Philadel?
phia is assigned. The general appraiser
I at Baltimore is assigned to the fourth
division. It includes all tho collection
districts iu Maryland, except tho Eastern
(Crisfield) District, all the collection dis?
tricts in Virginia, North Carolina, South
Carolina ana Georgia, and the districts
of Fernandir.fi, St Augustine and St.
John's, in Florida. The sixth and
seventh divisions are, until otherwise
assigned, placed under the i supervision
of the general appraiser at Baltimore,
and will be visited from time to-time by
such general appraiser as the department
may indicate. The sixth division com?
prises the various districts on the lakes.
The seventh division comprises all the
districts on the Pacific coast Collectors
at all ports other than those at which
general appraisers reside, are instructed
to forward to tho general' appraiser of
their division a report of dutiable impor?
tations entered at their respective ports
during the preceding month. The gene?
ral appraisers are instructed to make a
monthly report to the department of any
questions as to classification or rate of
duty which may have arisen during tho
month.
The adjournment sins die of the recon?
structed Louisiana Legislature is some?
what of a^relief in official circles. There
can scarcely be any attempt now to dis?
turb the provisions of the compromise,
and the Administration here will not feel
itself under the necessity, as for nearly
three yean past, of continually interfer?
ing in Louisiana affairs. The Louisiana
Conservatives have now no doubt that at
the next general election the majority of
the people will got tho control of tho
whole State Government There, of
' -course, eon also be no doubt that the
House of Representatives will in Decem?
ber seat the Democratic members of that
body fraudulently counted out by the
Wells Returning Board. The successor
of Attorney-General Williams will not
have to supervise Louisiana nor run a
?'Southern outrage" mill. He can, there?
fore, devote his time to the legitimate
duties of his office, and by restricting the
?extravagance and peculation of the car
Set-bag marshals in the South, save the
overnment a great deal of money.

A Mother's Care.?She will not allow
her girls to skate, beeauso Sir John Frank?
lin was lost among icebergs; nor ride,
because fox hunters sometimes get their
necks broken; nor to row, because young
men injure themselves by those dreadful
boat races. They may not have a pet
dog in case it should go mad, nor any
aconite or monkshood in their gardens
for fear they should poison themselves.
The timid mother forbids her daughters
to visit among the poor, for fear they
might take small-pox, and will not allow
ope of them to go alone outside of the
avenue gate from fear of garroters. The
description which she gives of the neigh?
boring fields is appalling. Sho repre?
sents them to bo tho lairs of mad bulls,
savage tramps, venomous snakes and
wild horses. Her girls cannot propo?o
either work or play which she does not
prove to be compassed with dangers hor?
rible and hitherto unthought of. In
their childish days they were not allowed
a rocking horse for fenr it should over?
balance; nor a swing, in case the rope
might break; nor a pocket-knife, lest
they should cut their fingers. She is
always tying comforters around her
children's throat and applping flannel to
mysterious places where it will not stay.
She revels in chest protectors, respira?
tors, and her room is adorned with stick?
ing plastur and gallipots. She is always
intent on proving that every one either
has a cold or is taking one, and she may
bo seen at night in a tlunnel dressing
gown going from room to room with a
gruel, pills, mustard leaves and India
rubber hot bottles. She is constantly
discovering obscure signs of some deadly
disease in her children. She takes it for
granted that her daughters have weak
spines, so their beds are destitute of
pillows, and there is a reclining board
in every room. When she takes her
girls to a pio-nic sho will not allow them
to sit on the grass, nor in the sun, nor
undor a tree, nor on a rock. They must
return with her before the dew begins to
rise, and are never allowed to look at the
moon except through a window.
Fatal Effects of Giuef and Shame. ?
Mr. Tyler Curtis, at ono time a promi?
nent citizen of San Francisco, Cat., and
an early settler thero, died ut Barnuui's
Hotel, in New York, on Friday morning.
He was tho husband of Annie Josephine
Curtis, who died a few weeks since from
the effects of malpractice. Mr. Curtis
had previously been married to a woman
of considerable means, by whom he had
three children, two of whom were living
in New York. On tho day of Mrs. Cur?
tis' death, the husband, who was in San
Francisco, was informed of the sad ovent.
He hurriedly telegraphed to have tho
body placed in a receiving vault until his
arrival. While packing nn his effects,
preparatory to leaving Son Francisco, he
got an evening newspaper, in whioh he
road with grieved amazement tho story
of his wife s shame. Dazed and heart?
broken, he took tho train for New York,
where ho arrived on April 8. The sud?
den shock to his feelings was too much
for him to bear, and lie sank rapidly,
dying on Friday last from grief anil pros?
tration under tho blow which ho had re?
ceived.
An appeal was made in a Broadway
church last Sunday for nine orphans,
tho youngest of whom is seventy-five'
years old.

Colombia, April 27, 1875.
T? Jlis Honor the Mayor and Aldermen
City of Columbia?Gentlemen: In behalf
of the cause of education, and especially
the poor children of our city, do I make
this appeal. I am gratified to say that
tho schools within the city limits, as well
as those in other parts of the County, are
in a flourishing condition. Over 7<X>
children are now attending the free com?
mon schools within the city, and the at?
tendance increasing every day. I am
sorry to say that, with the means at my
command, I shall not be able to keep th"
schools open for more than ono month
longer, the appropriation for our County
having been reduced some $2,300 below
that of 1874. It would seem a great mis?
fortune to have these, schools closed so
early and this large body of children
turned loose in our city, to be exposed
to all kinds of wicked influences. I
know, gentlemen, that the city is embar?
rassed at present for means to carry on
the city government; but believing that
this is a matter of great importance to
our city government, and that you will
make some extraordinary effort in this
direction, do I make this appeal, that the
small sum of $055 be appropriated, so
that the schools within the city limits
may bo kept open until 30th June, and
your petitioner wilt over pray,
C. J. CARROLL,
School Commissioner of Uichland.

until that date. Carried.

Chief of Police as correct
Ovtice Cuiek w Police,
Columbia, S. C, April 1, 1&75.
To the Honorable the Mayor and Atder
mm of the City of Columbia?Gentlemen:
I beg leave to submit the following re?
port for the month ending 31st March,
1875:
Total number of arrests made during
tho month of March for all grades of
crimes and offences committed within
the city limits, were 148; of which 118
were males and 30 females, 25 whites and
123 colored.
The following statement shows the
grade of all crimes and offences commit?
ted within the city limits: Drunk 24; va?
grancies 4; resisting officers 0; disorderly
27; violating ordinances 23; burglary 1;
creating disturbance 28; nuisance 3; as?
sault and battery 1; suspicious charac?
ters 12; disorderly houses 3; petit lar?
ceny 14: gambling 1; swindling 1.
The following disposition was made of
persons arroBted during the past month,
ending 31st March, 1875: 11 served their
time at work, of which they worked 58
days; ?5 were turned over to Trial Jus?
tices; 7 wore turned over to their parents
for correction; and 63 were discharged
by his Honor the Mayor.
The following statement shows the
amount of fines collected by the Police
Department for the mouth ending 31st
Mandl, 1H7?: Total amount collected
$91.51; total amount assessed $209.50; to?
tal amount balls $20; total amount un?
claimed property $53.
In conclusion, 1 will say that there
have been three dismissals from the force
since my lost report. I would respect?
fully call the attention of your honorable
body to the insufficiency of the force
there being a grout many complaints from
certain sections of the city not being pa?
trolled. There is a continual demand
for patrolmen for special purposes, from
churches and other sources. Many times
I am unable to comply with their re?
quest, and would impress upon your
honorable body the necessity of increas?
ing the force to 20 men. I found it ne?
cessary to retain the sergeants at the
Station House during their respective
terms of duty, to act as officers of the
day, in order to facilitate business of the
Police Department, and for tho better
protection of prisoners and property.
Thero being numerous complaints about
house-keepers, I have detailed as rounds?
men Patrolmen Lomax and Goodwin, in
chargo of their respective reliefs. The
health of the force has bepn good during
the past month, and, with a few excep?
tions, regular in attendance. I would
state that the forco have been very effi?
cient, and that they have given me every
assistance in breaking up three of the
most bold and daring bands of thieves
that has infested our community for tho
last two years.
I would call your attention to the pre?
sent condition of the force, and would
ask that somo steps be taken whereby
they-can prooure their summer uniforms.
I would also call your attention to the
steoplemen and their irregularities in
striking the bell, giving unnecessary
alarms, thereby causing a great annoy?
ance to the police force and fire depart?
ment. I would recommend that they be
placed subject to tho orders of some city
officers.
There were throe fires during the past
month, caused by accidents, t
Five persons applied far lodgings and
were cared for.
I respectfully submit a copy of tho
rules und regulations governing the Btee
plemen of the city of Charleston. I have
obedient servant. TM. F. NIXGN,
