TELEGRAPH.
FROM WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON, Dec. o. 1S75-The com
ml'tees Of the House have to some extent or
gained, and general foreshadowiug Of ,hei,
policy has in some cases been presented.
There seems to be no doubt that the Com NIT
tee on Appropriations will cut the estimates
heavily. They understand that the Demo.
cratic party want retrenchment, and they will
fully answer all expectations in that regard.
There seems to be no doubt that both the
Committee on Elections and that on Educa.
ton and Labor will have clerks from Virginia.
u. W. Bartlett, of Massachusetts, is now clerk
OF the Committee on Elections. The pay of
the committee clerks is six dollars per day.
So much talk seems to have been made over
a few appointments OF Virginians under the
House of Representatives it may be we'll to
say 10 reminder that during the past five
Congresses there have been but one, or at
most two men appointed from Virginia.
