WARRINGTON LETTER.
WASHINGTON, ID. o.,
Dec, II, rs.

The House yesterday passed two
more appropriation bills-the consular
and diplomatic, and the neval. They
are substantially the same as last yeal
in amount and otherwise. Thus early
in the second week of the session
appropriation bills have been passed
1t begins to be said that there will be
trouble in the House when the legisla
tive, executive and judicial appropria.
ton bill comes up. In this bill there
will, be an attempt to provide payment
for the special election officers appoint.
cd by the Acknowledgement, and to
cover other unnecessary and illegiti-
mate expenses, The bill will not be
reported until after the holidays.
1t is evident that Senator Conkling
has not lately "let himself out" as
freely as he was in the habit of dol 9
year or so ago Some of his friends
are confident that he will oppose con-
firmation of the New York Custom
House nominees of Mr., Hayes, and
others equally confident that he will
not
In the Senate Mr.. Morgan. Of Ala
bama, yesterday ably and earnestly
supported the bill of Mr. Edmunds,
prescribing method of counting the
votes for President. Mr.. Jones. OF
Florida, briefly opposed the bill, and
was replied to by Mr.. Edmunds. This
bill, favorably received at first, is gain
lug friende in both parties. 1t will
probably pass the Senate.
Among the Investigations going on
now is one into the question whether
or not certain Representatives received
money for their votes in June last on
a bill giving Government counteuance
10 the District 3G5 bonds. These
bonds we're authorized by Congress to
fund an Indebtedness Of thirteen or
fifteen million of dollars incurred with
out authority of law BY certain u s.
officers who governed the Di-trict
from ISL to 1874. The question
whether or not the District should be
taxed for them does not enter into the
investigation. The charge is that Fl
nancial institution which controlled
most of the bonds, and which expect
ed to make million or so BY the legis-
lation in question, bribe1 members of
Congress. Two or three members OF
the House, and Senator Ingalls, of the
Senate District Committee, have been
most spoken of in this connection.
The money is not said to have been
paid directly. but the benefit Of the
anticipated rise in value Of certain
amouot of bonds is said to have been
guaranteed IN each case. KEX,

turning on the Pacific Coast should bo

says:
Promises of retrenchment have
been MADE but never kept. At a time
when the State and city are progress
ing slowly, if 1t all, aud property is
rather depreciating than approaching
in value, the men in power add to our
yeaily expenses and increase the rate
OF taxation. Taxes are thrust upon
the people in every form. Ii man,
bas accumulated a little property he is
taxed forty per cent. OF its income.
Ii lie has nothing, and wants to 20
into business, be mvst pay for tho
privilege and take the chances Of sue
cess. The average citizen works on,-
third OF the time for government.
Accumulating slowly, if at all. and
paying largely Of his earnings in tho
form of taxes, he sees the public mon
ey wasted on every hand. Large salar
ries, double and treble salaries, per-

Alfalfa or Luoarne.

This is one of the earliest plants
mentioned in agricultural history,
and is supposed to have been intro
duced into Greece 800 years before
the Christian era; thence its cult
walton extended into France, where
it has ever since been considered a
valuable forage plant; but in Great
Britain 1t is not esteemed very
highly, perhaps because it comes
in competition, with many of the
best and most nutritious grasses.
In the south of England and on
some of the Channel islands lucerne
is cultivated to a limited extent,
but it is u plant berter adapted to
hot climates than to cool ones, and
has, therefore, never become popu-
lar among the farmers of the latter.
The early Spanish settlers of
South America introduced lucerne
as forage plant likely to be of
great value in that country, and
their expectations were fully realiz-
ed, for it, soon became natuaiized
and Its cultivation extended to all
parts of the country. When the
early settlers of California we're in
search of some better forage plant
than the native grasses, they fcrtu-
natelv procured seed of what was
called Chill clover, or alfalfa the
latter being the South American
Spanish name. But it was soon
discovered that the clover from
Chill was nothing more than the
very ancient and well-known lucerne
of Europe. Lucerne, as We have
said, is especially adapted to warm
climates, and succeeds best on a
very deep rich soil, failing alike on
heavy clays or thin light sand. It's
roots penetrate the earth deeply,
and consequently it wristbands
long and severe drouths better than
plants which do not have long ROOTS
For the Southern States there are
few perennial plants which give
greater promise Of value than
lucerne: but considerable care
should be exercised in the selection
of the proper.soil. The fodder is Of
excellent quality, and the yield very
abundant Bat we have liitle iaith
