ing. Mr.. Boutwell, has inst sent to
the House of Representatives n
statement Of the incidental expenses
of his department., with grand total
of tifty-nine thousand dollars. Nearly
every conceivable article figures n
some Item, from flower pots to fans
and alpaca braid; but the great item
of constant recurrence Is that of
washing tpwels. This hint Of clean
illness not only occurs on every page,
but In every second or third line. 1t
is the mOnotonous echo to every
thing. 1t will give the people sat
isfying idea Of the filthiness of the
national lucre to hear that this towel
washing for one year amounts to the
snug sum OF one thousand eight hun
dred and forty-five dollars, and that
the number of towels washed il up-
wards of thirty thousand--enough, Co
give the Treasury people one hundred
clean towels every day. ~ t'' i'''
