Letter from Gentleman in Washington. :
WASHINGTON, April 80, 1894. }

Dear Sir,-Mr. FoRsYTH, Of Georgia,
is the ablest supporter Of the present ad-
ministration in either House of Con-
gress He is man of accomplished
manners, Of about the middling stature,
his complexion light, his hair grey, whis-
kers la Van Buren,. The bump Of
casualty is nightly developed on his
Uranium. or there is a bump appropri-
ated to self-complacency, that must be
well developed also.) This resemblance
to Mr.. Van Buren, does not end in the
whiskers When Van Buren, wears
brown coat, Forsyth wears brown coat;
and when Van Buren wears black one,
Forsyth ditto. do not mean to nsinu-
ate that he is equally initiative in his
principles. Oh no, sir! by no means
MIR. Forsyth's voice for public speaking
is poor, bu. his manner is easy and col
loquial. He is one Of the most ready
adroit, and ingenious debaters here, ard
fights his battles with great skill and per-
tinacity. Driven from one position he
seizes another, and rather than surren-
der, he will at last deny an abstract prin-
ciple, acknowledged in all previous sta
ges of the debate, or even take refuge
in personal attack upon his adversary
He is certainly the most suitable among
the Administration men for the mission
to London, but his services here are in.
valuable and indispensable to his party
| PORTER, the new Senator from Louis
lana, (I name him not because he is q
prominent member Of the Senate, bu
because singular one, is q broad fac.
ed Irishman, having the Irish brogue-
the Irish humor, and Irish wit, in ful
perfection. He has recently made tive
short speeches. On both occasions b,
instantly put every hearer in good hu
NOR, and frequently convulsed the whole
house with merriment. AT the sam,
time he is a well educated, sound, prac
tical, judicious man. He yesterday lit

way is natl in a most happy strain o

nance, in short, Just such man as yo,

to belong. 1t is rather difficult to keep
him in harness. While the Deposite
Question was under discussion, Shepley,
Of Maine, consumed whole day in
proving that the Secretary, and not the
President, "took the responsibilities" but
almost Immediately after, old GrundyI
began speech conceding at once that
it was the President, and not the Secre-I
tary who performed the act, and pro-
cceded manfully to defend him in it,
greatly, however, TO the amusement OF
the Senate, and chagrin Of Mr. Shepley.
His voice is yet strong, and His manner
earnest, and though one Of the oldest, is
one of the most hard working, and valu-
able men in the Senate.
Mr.. CLAY, was probably never more
uccessful than in his recent efforts. j
came here prejudiced against him, be-
cause thought / saw rancour and the
virulencc of disappointed ambition in his
reported speeches; but find those very
speeches assume in his mouth the form of
grave, and deep, and measured indigna-
ton. In their delivery, he charms and
astonishes YOU. You lose all power Of
criticism, and in spite Of yourself, the
blood will thrill to the very extremity Of
your toes. You could listen to him a
week without being fatigued. His style
Of telling an anecdote or scourging an
enemy, is inimitable. The intonations Of
one Of the strongest, most pleasant, and
most flexible voices you ever heard; his
gestures and countenance, are all under
perfect obedience, and the loltier he ris-
es, his tones are more persuasive or more
emphatic. Many men by the very effort
they make to carry greater conviction,
detract rather than add to the effect they
are already producing, and what was in
tended for fine iptonation or great en-
phasis, results in merely a judicious
yell. Once in great while it is so with
! MIR. Preston, and so with Mr.. Forsyth,
but Mr.. Clay never fails. hope you
will not smile when l say that Henry
Clay comes up to my full conception Of
4 Demosthenes. Placed under the same
! circumstances before an Athenian popu-
lace, he would have delivered as good
Philipios as that great orator, and in
their loud acclamations "Let us march
against Philip" that people would have
paid the same involuntary tribute to hi:
powers. The hearer is in turn startled
by his vehemence, amused by his humor
disarmed by his moderation, melted by
his pathos, inflamed by his impassionet
appeal, convinced by his argument, in 6
word, moulded to his purposes and con
trolled to his will, more perfectly than by
any other orator ever heard, and yet
Henry Clay is man neither of the
greatest nor the best disciplined intellect
Though he is neither finished scholar
nor man Of extensive learning, nor re-
) fined taste, though his diction is frequent
r ly not choice, and his pronunciation of
ten horrible, \by the names of DR.. Wal
ker, and the grey hairs Of Noah Webs
ten, l protest against it,l yet he is tn
most eloquent man | ever heard, or eve
8 expect to hear.

ZKNHE want of more compre he nsiy.

NYHE want Of more comprehensive
and diversified system of Educa-
tion than could be afforded by a
single Instructor, has been long and
deeply felt by the citizens Of Newport.
This want, we trust, is now to be sup
piled. The undersigned, who have been
selected as a board Of visiters and en-
amners, congratulate parents and 9th
ers, on the prospect which is presented,
of procuring for their sons, at their own
door, and under their own guardianship,
a thorough Education.
AN ACADEMY, under the super
intendence of MIR. VIM. GUILD, for many
ars-lavorably known to this commune
iy as the Principal Of the Public School,
aided by competent assistants, will be
opened early in the next month.
1t is designed TO place the institution
on footing not inferior to our best Acad-
emies. The course Of instruction will
comprise every department Of English
and Classical learning, and will be care
fully adopted TO future destination of the
pupils.

WASHINGTON, May 2, 1884.

WARRINGTON, Way z, 1907.
Mr. Preston, of S. Carolina, is very
large man, with very yellow wig, and
a very red face. He is the most i'm
passioned and fervid speaker in the Sc
nate. His illustrations are copious and
beautiful; his language pure and classic
al; and his quotations, vising unsoughsI
and unprecedented, most felicitous.-I
Speaking so impetuously, he never flags
himself, nor suffers his hearers to become
fatigued. For all these reasons, you
will readily opine that he is great ia
vorite with the ladies'. But he has faults.
His intonatons are sometimes harsh, .
and his gestures seem frequently to be
made, not because they add force and
vigor to the sentence he is enunciating,
but because his limbs are uncomfortable
while his mind is in action. He is cer-
tainIy very powerful man; but in self
possession, in knowledge of human ma
ture, in variety, in compass, and flexlbll-
ty Of voice, in perfect adaptation Of eve-
ry action TO the word, and every word to
the occasion, inferior to Mr.. Clay. His
speeches, as well as those of many other
gentlemen Of the Senate, will read bet
ter than those of Mr.. Clay.
i Mr.. CALHOUN, the great heresiarch Of
our political faith, l have not heard so
much as desired-enough, however, to
have some idea of his genius and char
acter. He is tall, gaunt man with stiff
grey hair, brushed backward. His face
bears as many folds and corrugations as

(From the ladies Magazine.
TIE THREE TWILIGHTs.
How glorious is the hour, when first
The world from sleep is waking
When in the east few fain, rays
Denote that day is breaking!
And then, when from the Oceans verge
A broader light is gushing,
And brilliantly the sea and sky
With vermil dye are blushing;
When stars withdraw their gentle light,
The moon her brightness yelling,
And, tnged with glory, to the south
The clouds Of night are sailing;
When birds pour forth their melody
To hail the early dawning,
And all the world doth seem to greet
The ttpilight of the morning,
When winter days have passed away,
And loos'd the ice-lock d fountoins-
When trees put forth their tender leaves,
And vendure clothes the mountains;
When in the valley or the plain,
The first fresh flowers are springing,
And joyously the lightsome bird
From branch to branch is winging;
When cheerfully along their way
The woodland rills are flowing,
And with pleasant melody
The western winds are blowing
How much Of gladhess fills the world!
How happy every creaiurel
How doth the ttciight Of the gear.
Bedeck with smiles all nature
How much the twilight Of the year,
And twiligh, of the morning,
Are like that happy time in life
Our childhood's early dawning!
When, unknown care, and unknown pain,
The heart is free and lghtest,
And every hope, and every joy,
And all things shine forth brightest.
When all the past hath no regret
The present void Of sorrow
And not an anxious thought is thero
Of what may come tomorrow:
o, well il were. if thus through life
All care and wo at distance,
We could live on, as free as at
The tt0ilight Of eristence!

Dear Sir:-You ask me for a narra-
tive Of passing events. Information flies
SO quickly on the wings of the wind, that
every news should choose to commu-
nicate would come too tardily for amuse-
nent or instruction. While their tram
sactions are known SO instantly you rare
ly however get correct impressions Of the
actors in the scenes. spend all my
time on the floor Of the Senate Chamber.
For FIVE months that arena has been
thronged with visiters: and no wonder
they find attractions there. For forensic
ability, for political sagacity, for native
powers Of intellect truly believe tina.
the present Senate Of the United States,
stand unrivalled in the history of delber-
ative assemblies. ! venture this asser-
ton with full recollection Of our first
Congress, and with knowledge Of the
facts, that Burliegh, Coke, and Bacon,
were cotemporaries in parliament, at one
period, and that Burke, Fox, Pitt, and
Sheridan, came in continual conflict at
another period of British history. Being
estimated only according to their powers
Of intellect, whatever their previous hab.
its Of life have been, the members are
obliged to strip themselves here Of all
assumed dignity and all mere prstension
whatever. l see no setting, or looking,
or walking for effect, except in a single

ZIMMERMAN'S REFLECTIONS

All who laugh are not mirthful.
Intense pleasures cannot come often.
Never contradict, and you will seldom
be contradicted.
The greatest reward ofour good deeds,
is the consciousness ofhaving done them.
