WASHINGTON, Dee 21-The indica-
tons are that the social world of Wash
ington will be very quiet this winter
from various causes, chief amongwhich
is the fact that several prominent fam
lies are in mourning. Though the
death Of Mrs. Grants father will not
interfere with the State ceremonies in
cumbent upon the President, it will
cause Mrs. Grant S withdrawal from all
but the most formal requirements of
tie season. Secretary Delano S family
is also in retirement under affection,
and the English Legation is closed So
cially on account Of the death Of Lady
Thor1ton' S father. The family of Sen
ator Edmunds is in mourning in con-
sequence Of the death of several near
relatives, including the father of the
Senator. Senator Sprague's family is
in retirement in consequence of the
death of the Chief Justice, and Mrs.
Senator Chandler has recently lost a

WASHINGTON, Dec. 22.-The Senate
Judiciary Committee are to give the
question of the expediency of the re-
peal Of the bankrupt law careful and
exhaustive consideration during the re-
cess. The circumstances against a re-
peal of the entire law are still coming
in, and it is probable that stronghold

such legislation as will stop proceedings
in pending suits. 1t is urged that I'M
less action is taken there will be but
little occasion for changing the law in
any way, as that which it is necessary
to do now is to protect the unfortunate
sufferers by the recent panic. These
views will be strongly combatted, how
ever, by some of the best men in the
Senate, who profess to see in such leg

greatly overbalance the little good it

IRISH HOME RULE AND EWIGRA,
TFON

The Home Rule conference, held III
Belfast on the 18th Of November last,
resolved that it is necessary to the
peace and prosperity Of Ireland that
the right Of domestic legislation on all
Irish affairs should be restored to our
country" Local legislation for local
purposes and interests has obvious and
many advantages. which are well I'M
derstood in the United States. DR..
Hancock, Of the Dublin Statistical So
cietv, shows that the total expenditures
for the relief Of the poor in ireland,
from 1852 to 1872, were SIS, S35, 600
During the same twenty years Irish
cInigrants to America RENTED to their
friends in their mother country
S7+.150O0O. These figures show an ex-
cess Of remittances Of nearly ten mil
lion dollars ovcr.the whole Irish cXpcn-
ditre for poor rates. and speak vol
umes in favor Of American resources
In 1872 the Irish poor tax was S3,6i5,-
600. and the sum sent from the United
States mainly TO assist relatives and
friends to pay their passage across the
Atlantic to this land Of promise, was
over four millions. This outlet to a
fertile continent, where the principle
IF "Home Rule" is well established
operates as a bounty on the multiplied
tion Of the Irish family in Ireland.
Should all the descendants Of Irish
parents within fifty years, return to the
Green Isle. they would tax its ag-
ricuitwe heavily, and be trouble
some to British domination.

MILEAGE.

The Senatorial substitute for the
House salary bill, proposes to replace
the compensation Of Congressman at
the old figure with all the old perqui-
sites. including mileage It's a curious
commentary on the theory of human
progress that George Washington,
after the lapse Of thousands Of years,
lad no advantage over Alexander of
Macedon. or Julius Caesar, IN the mat
ter Of locomotion He, as they, was
obliged to depend on the swiftncss of
horseaesh. while in the matter Of good
roads the ancicnts had an immense adj
vantage. 1t was IN such an era that
the perquisites for mileage were de-
vised. and they were then com
paratively just and equitable. But
with the progress Of steam
navigation and railroads. the ineluah-
ties of this old stage system became
glaring. In the famous speech Of Ran
dom Butler defending the salary grab
nj Greeneyillc last October, he stated
that he received 500 mileage while he
only paid S25 for his railroad fare to
Neutrality-suspicious. pockcting>l'5 He
also cited the case Of Representative
Torbey of Oregon who received St'5V
while his travelling expenses across the
continent wee only Sl75-thus clearing
S4.575, or only S25 short of double
salary. The people demand the abso'
lutte repeal Of the salary grab, but the
Senate Is much mistaken if it imagines
that the absurd inequalities Of this OBJ
solete mileage system can be restored
without protest.
