WAsHIyGroy, Jan. l2 1889.
The American Congress OF Artists are in this city,
and will hold their first sitting today The Special
Committee Of the House. appointed at the last session
Of Congress on motion Of Mr.. Marshall Of Kest1oky,
to consider he subject OF decorating the Capitol have
had conference with the aforesaid Congress of Artists
this morning. The interview quite satisfactory
TO the artists who only complain that in the interior
decorations Of the Capitol they have not had fair
chance.
The Committee have ordered the decorations to
stop So far the subjects of them are chiefly derived
from foreign or arc fancy. Very few ilustTa-
tons Of American history scenery are represented,
ard all the work Is executed by Italian and other for
igr artists. The Special Committee have in ccntem-
plation the recommendation Of a Board OF Commls-
sons 10 sup, rnteId the whole work Of decorating,
which Board shall offer opportunity 10 all Ameri-
can artists to compete with those # IN other suds,
superiority Of workmanship to be the test. This vas
TIE course pursued by Parliament in providing for the
decorations Of the chamber in which 1t assemblies.
Tie same is true in France tn relation to the French
Chamber of Assembly. In each of those countries
national pride had something 70 do with national
work. The House of Parliament Was decorated by
Britons and the French Assembly Chamber by
Frenthmen. In toe spirit lot the Capitol OF this
great nation be decorated by American artists, If we
have men born among us competent 10 perform the
work. N. Y Eve. Post.

he is the ''frst estate" Lord of the land
no man has frmer hold of the essential

But he is not forever in the harrow. Fol
