WASHINGTON LETTER.

Senator Howe on Monday told what
he had to tell about the Administration.
1t is apparent that about 8 out of 10 Re-
publicans in Wisconsin have q warm ha-
tired of Hayes and Schurz, and Howe
doubtless saw the necessity, if he is to
be his own successor as Senator from
that State, of putting himself on the
same platform they occupy. Except on
two points the speech was week. These
two We're the weakness of the title of
Mr.. Hayes to the Presidency if Packard's
title as Governor of Louisiana is bad.
and, secondly, the humbug Of civil SER
vice reform by Hayes and Schurz. On
these two points the Senator utilized all
! that the newspapers have said and con-
tributed some new ideas. These latter
he no doubt gained while waiting at the
White House door, during the last year,
for the crumbs of patronage that might
fall to his part. The speech will have
little effect, unless it shall induce other
and ADLER Senators and Representatives
to complete the work of forcing the Re,
publican party to ignore the Adminis>
| tration entirely.
| Senator Blaine has backed down from
the position he had previou sly occupied
of opposition to paying the Fishery
award of five and a half millions and
said he was willing it should be paid for
the sake of national honor, but that we
had received no consideration for the
amount and he wanted protection
against similar payments III the future
This is all just and right, and / suggest
Senator Blaine as chairman, on the part
of the Senate, of a committee to enquire
into our relations with the Canadian
provinces. On the part of the House,
Stephens, of Georgia; Potter, of New
York; Sayler, of Ohio; Glover, of Mis-
souii; or any one of hundred otis
ers would answer well. There are
mauy reasons why such a committee
would be Of immediate benefit to the
country, let alone the prospective
advantages of the closer and more cor
dial alliance which will precede the ui>
innate annexation of the provinces to
these United States.

The wheat prospect is fattering,
and farmers feel hopeful of an abund-

time coming, when there will be a
cash market, and some convenient

Spring is a general moving time,
and Easton, like many other towns,
has rather floating population. An
other week, and our new merchants,
Messrs, Bayles & Shay, will occupy
the Easton store-Mosier & Lynch
prefcring life of less hustle and more
profit.
The coming men have been very
popular, as miller and black smith,
and we bespeal for them q continued
popularity, and an extended patron
age. They propose to do a cash and
trade business only. If they do, it
will prove q blessing both to them
selves, and their fellow-men. We of
fer our best wishes-we have neither
money, nor land. This reminds us
that we have q good democratic friend

out of money for twenty years, and

great good will be accomplished by
consolidating the societies. 1t is pio-

The immense exodus of people of
all classes and trades from the dense
ly populated sections of the East,
pouring a continuous tide into our
undeveloped western states and ter
ritories, is one Of the most hopeful
features of the times. 1t will rid the
East of its superabundance of labor
and settle the West with an intelli-
gent and cultured civilization. No
more railroad grants, but let Uncle
Sam give every man farm who has
grace and grit enough to enter n
homestead, beautify and embellish it.
