PHILIPS TRIAL.

From a latch of kilograms relating to the
trial of Philip. who is accused of forging the
Morey letter, we gather the following essen
tial particulars: Philip Donaldson swore
that he is the nephew of the late H.. l.. Morey
that lie saw and csnversed with his uncle in
the years u, Is and 70, at Lynn, Massa-
chusetts, and saw his signature
on the hotel register there, under date of Oct.
II, AS79. That his uncle was a travelling
agent for a commercial house in Boston and
was, at the same time, engaged in the labor
movement. He also swore that he had been
offered 500 not to appear at the trial. Mr..
Donaldson was q witness called by the de-
Tense. Mr.. G. B. Adams was called BY the
prosecution; swore that he is the postmaster
a Lynn. Mass; that he knew of lilo man by
the name of II. l.. Morey who had lived at
that place. That he had searched the post
Office directory and city directory and could
find no such name. He further stated that he
knows of Ito such union as the employers
unisn Of that place. Our readers will re-
member that the letter in question wa
addressed to H.. L. Morey, employers union.
Lynn, Mass. Mr.. Adams further testified
that he had never seen in the Lynn office any
letter postmarked Washington with a New
York stamp upon it. To sun up, Donaldson
saw Morey there and Adams did not. The
testimony proves that Morey was there and
in the interest of a labor movement, although
Adams did not knew of him.

MUD THAT WON'T STICK.

The charge made against Mr.. G. E. Irvine,
the democratic candidate for probate judge,
in the last issue of our city contemporary, is
fully met and disproved in Mr.. Irvine's circu-
lar letter and the card attached thereto,
signed by some of the best men in The coun-
ty. A mans honorable discharge from The
United States army is incontrovertible evil
dcnce that his connection Herewith has been
honorable. 1t ,eing made upon the eve OF
.election-so late that Mr.. Irvine has barely
had time to disprove it-shews the aninus of
the whole thing. Our citizens will put the
seal of their condemnation of the charge in
the majority that they will give Mr.. Irvine
to-day for probate judge.

oUR wAsHINsToN LETTER.
Pine Misunderstanding SEIZURE wanted
A New Library Building Preparations
Made fer Visitors. etc, etc.

Washington hopes for by far the most pros
porous winter it has ever had. Presidential
seasons have of late always brought here I'M
mense crowds. The steady tide of visitors to
the city, the rapid increase in its permanent
population, and the special interest felt in the
presidential contest, promise to fill the city
completely from December, when congress
! will meet, to March, when Garfield will be
inausurated as president. The advantages of
, Washington as a winter residence are becom-
ing widely known, not only III this, but in
other countries. We have ample space and
delightful situations for building, and the
hotel accommodations Of the present time are
incomparably superior to those of the past.
Secretary SchurZ has not returned to the
city, though his presence is urgently needed
at the interior department i'll connection with
existing Indian disturbances. He is expected
in a few days. The President said a year or
SO ago that he saw 10 objection to cabinet
officers appearing before the people to explain
their manner of conducting the business of
their departments. The Presidents idea may
be the correct one, but he would hardly Sc
lect the time for such explanations just when
a particular officers services were most need
ed here.
1t is understood the architects appointed to
examine into the subject of accommodations
for our rapidly increasing library of congress
are unanimously in favor of erecting a new
and extensive building in Judiciary square,,
in the heart Of the city. This square is half
a mile from the Capitol, and the removal of
the library to such a distance will occasion
ZONE Inconvenience to members of congress.
But the library is not really the library of
congress. Each house has its own library,
separate from this one. The great safety of
the books, and the increased accommodation
to the public, receive fiom the commission,
as it should, the first consideration.
This city IS making unusual preparations
for the entertainment Of the vast crowd which
Will visit US this fall and winter. Washing
tons hotel and boarding house accommoda-
tions were never so good or so extensive as
now.

The RESULT.

From present indications Garfield is elected.

'feated, it is an easy matter to point to the

riff for revenue only" which appears in

,lportant factor that helped determine the
suit. A lavish expenditure of money by
te republicans completed the job. The
Il use that killed the old whlg party, infused
i.w vitality INTO the waning fortunes of the
,publican party and has given it another four
I airs lease of power. 1t is useless now to
~eculate as to the course the republican
administration will pursue ii. the future in
I gard to the tariff question. 1t is reasonable
: suppose they will leave it as it is. A dem
II ratio administration would doubtless do
&c same. In the past campaign, the repub-
FANS discussed the tariff question very un
F'irly. They charged that if Hancock were
