Gambling DenS of the CAPITAL.

! Washington Correspondence Of Hartford Times.
| The notorious John Chamberlain, who
has presided over SO many gambling es-
Establishments, in the shape Of pool
rooms, race-tracks or faro banks, as any
other man in this Countrywide man
who was declared a bankrupt last
spring, and who was forced to sell out
his fast horses and race-course at Long
Branch, and his club-room and faro
bank In this city-has opened another
club-room in this city, and expects to
do a heavy business as soon as congress
re-assembles. He has re-furnished the
clubhouse On New York avenue, and
has got everything IN readiness for a
grand re-opening, which will take place
on January 10th, to which a great
crowd will be invited. Chamberlain
will not have such smooth sailing as he
enjoyed while he ran his other house.
as the new board Of police are dead
down Oh gambling, and order such fire.
quent raids on places where it is carried
on that a great many who desire it to be
understood that they are respectable
are afraid to enter them, not knowing
exactly when they will be bounced
down upon by the police and the whole
party marched to the station-house. To
get over this, some of the leading gam
blers have opened rooms in the hotels,
where they expect they will be able to
operate during the winter without inter
ference. AS long as the game is con-
fined to short-card" games, such as
poker, euchre and old sledge, they may
get along all right, but Just as sure as.
they open banking" gam s-faro,
roulette, rouge-et-noir, or games of that
class-they lay themselves open to ar
rest, and render the gambling parapher-
MALTA liable to seizure.
The gambling fraternity expect that
the coming session will be a good one
for their business, as there is very gen
eral impression that there will be a good
deal Of money in circulation during the
winter, and great many people here.
There is to be considerable legislation
that will attract people, such as the va
rious railroad bills the Texas Pacific in
particular reorganization Of the
army and navy, the new tariff bill and
many others. The people who are in
terested in these measures generally
come here with well-flled pockets, and
spend the same literally; and, while it
is being thrown around, the sporting
men expect, and nearly always receive,
their whack" of it. AS long as
money is plenty they always receive
their share, but when it is as scarce as
it was last session they receive but lit
tie. Thus, the more flourishing the
times the greater the number Of gam
bling-houses found in this city, as we'll
as elsewhere. Those who have been in
Chamberlain's new tigers den say it is
furnished regardless Of cost and that
the temptations offered are very great.

Thirteen O'Clock.

The English Duke Of Bridgewater
was fond Of watching his men at work,
and when they were boring for coal at
Worsley, he attended every morning
and looked on for long time. The
men did not like to leave off work while
he remained there, and they became so
dissatisfied at having to work SO long
beyond the hour at which the bell rang
that Brindley had difficulty in getting
sufficient number of hands to continue
the boring. On inquiry, he found out
the cause, and told the Duke, who from
that time made point Of walking Off
when the bell rang, returning when the
men had resumed work, and remaining
with them usually until 6 o'clock. He
observed, however, that, though the
men dropped work promptly as the bell
rang when he was not by, they were
not so punctual in resuming work. He
asked to know the reason, and the mems
excuse was that, though they could al
ways hear the clock when it struck II,
they could not so readily hear it when
it struck only 1. On this the Duke had
the mechanism Of the clock tered, so
as to make it strike Is at l O'clock.

Looking out any clear night, one NAV
see from live to seven shoOting-stars on
an average every hour At two periods
OF the year, however, about the 10Th of
August and the 18th of November. thew
are much more numerous. Their
luminous trains furrow the sky at these
times in surprising numbers. Those
which appear at the former date used
to be called " ot.Lawrence's Tears" and
the superstitious pointed to them as the
burning tears of the martyr, whose feast
fell on the 10th of August.
These shooting-stars used to be con-
sidered only at atmospheric meteors
caused by the combustion of inf1arn-
mable gas-will-o'- the-wisps, in short,
high up in the air. They have come
now, however, to be generally recognized
as bodies which, although they become
lnf1amed on coming into contact with
the earth's atmosphere, yet have their
origin far beyond it. The earth is sup
posed to pass at certain times through
rings composed of myriads of them,
circulating like the larger planets round
the sun.
Some shooting-stars, perhaps. pas.
through our atmosphere, and continue
their path through space, after having
presented to us the appearance of a
transient illumination. A great num-
Der, however, have their career brought
to an abrupt conclusion. On striking
our atmosphere, most Of them are dis
slpated by the heat Of intense friction,
and but few of large size attain the very
surface Of the earth Falls Of stones.
ferruglnous masses, and dust from the
upper regions Of the air are proofs of
this assertion.
Meteoric iron, originally belonging to
these vagrant stars, may be collected in
the most of-the-way places. Mon
sleur Tissandier has lately shown that it
is constantly found IN the cosmical dust
collected from rain, and existing in the
atmosphere Of elevated regions. Mon
sieur Young once told the French
Academy Of Science that the best place
In which to look for meteoric dust is an
old church steeple. One should collect
all the dust deposited in corners, where
the wind has not been able to penetrate.
and examine it under the miscroscope.
Apart from learning how many GU
rlous things are floating about invisible
IN the air, the student may be able to
get together enough iron to examine it
by chemical means, and thus learn
something both Of the mineralogy and
chemistry of distant regions of the
universe.

thus: 1.-The man who laughs is doc

People are always glad to see him. Their
hands instinctively go half way out to
meet his grasp, while they turn involun-
tarily from the clammy touch Of the
dyspeDtic who speaks III the grooming
key. He laughs you out of your faults,
while you never dream of being offend

a pleasant world you are living in until
he points out the sunny streak on its
pathway"
