Washington Letter.
WAsHfNGroN, d. c., Nav is, 1888

WASHINGTON. d. c., May Is, 1880.
The subject that is discussed in hotel
Hobbies and on the streets in Washington
is not political, and the coming event is
not a presidential nomination. 1t is a
rowing match. Two vulgar muscular
sports are to have boat race on the Poto-
mac. Their photographs are in all the
windows. The daily papers print inter-
views with them, and give the minutest
details of their profitless daily existence.
No names occupy a greater acreage on
the glowing scroll of contemporary fame
than Hanlan and Courtney. who can pull
iimsy, useless paper shells weighing thirty
pounds faster than any other oarsman who
has squandered muscle on this means of
gambling.
On yesterday the committee of ways
and means voted 10 adjourn on the last
day of May, and il their action shall be
ratified by the House there will remain
but fourteen more working days in this
congressional session. This resolut ion
may be understood as providing for the
passage of the regular appropriation bills,
with the intention of allowing the hundreds
of other bills that have been presented
some of them involving much needed
legislation, to go by the board. 1t would
necessarily require the.abandonment Of all
tariff legislation, including that of the
much needed reduction of duty on materi-
al for the manufacture of paper. This
congress has shown itself ready, on more
than one occasion. to pass moderate bill
of tariff reforms, but the committee of
ways that are dark and means that are
despicable has successfully frustrated the
House in its effort TO improve the tariff
during six months ,of this uneventful
session, and it now wishes to force an
adjournment, seeing that congress is dis
posed to act without the committee. The
committee argues that if the session con-
tinues beyond the assembling of the presi-
dental conventions, congress will resolve
itself into stump speech pandemonium,
though it is difficult to understand how
congress can resolve itself into condition
that characterizes it now, and has charac-
terized it since its earlier and so.called
better days. Those better days of con-
gress were a period before it was subject
ed 10 the fierce light thrown from the
pages of six thousand newspapers.
In the Senate the week has been chiefly
taken up with discussion of the Kellogg
Spoflord case, in which Senators Hill and
Hampton have made conspicuous speeches
on opposite sides. 1t is quite evident now
that Kellogg is secure for at least the re-
mainder of this session, and probably for
the full senatorial term.

A Few WORDS ABOUT GRANTS NoMI-
NATIoN.-EditOr of Freemnn:-It is sur
rising that those who would be pleased
o have eX-President Grant nominated for
third term are so persistent. after seeing
he resolute and determined opposition
hat is shown to such nomination. The
election of the Chicago nominees is vitality
important. None more so since the cleo
ion of Lincoln. Therefore it is the plain
luty of all earnest and sincere republicans
% make all minor considerations and in
lividual preferences secondary to the sue
less Of the campaign. The opposition
shown to the nomination of Grant would
most certainly endanger the triumph of
the party that makes it. Such nomination
would be especially pleasing to the party
which is to meet in convention at Cincin-
natl a little later. There can be no doubt
in regard to this. Will the republicans
nominate, of all others, just the man their
opponents wish to have them? We can
not yet believe it. We cannot believe the
friends of Grant will be so unwselv OBJ
stinate as this would show, after counting
chances and probabilities. While we
should deeply regret the nomination of
Grant, at the same time if he should re-
ceive Il fair majority of all the delegates
who had been fairly chosen-we should
deem it not only the duty of republicans
to support him, but do all in their power
to secure his election. D.T.A.

The Late DIR. ]. s. Spaulding.

The writer was very much shocked, rs
were also doubtless the thousands of
friends of the late DIR. Spaul ding. on read
ing the announcement OF the terribly sud-
den decease of this veteran and time-hon-
ored school-ms ster. As one of the three
hundred and twenty-five young men and
women that attended his school at
Bakersfield in the fall of 1850, conceived
for him at once and have ever since
fervently cherished sentiment of pro-
found esteem and even of affection. /
feel personally indebted t o DIR. Spaulding,
and personally bereaved by his death.
am satisfied that am an entirely different
man from what would have been, have
led an entirely different career probably
from what should have done but for him.
| began my preparation for college under
him. recited to him my first lessons in
Latin grammar, and am indebted to the
influences about me in his school for my
first inspirations in the direction of
academic learning.
DR., Spaulding was something more than
a successful teacher. He was a grand
man. Never, perhaps, was there a nobler.
or 4 truer. His students invariably loved
him as father. He was always kind and
approachable. His temper was eminently
genial and fatherly. His simplicity was
equaled only by his urbanity and impur-
turable good nature. How lightly his
cares seemed to sit on him. How mild
and sweetly serene his spirit. A great
and good man has fallen. Nor is there
any that can ever fill his place. What
more beautiful indeed than n character
thus rounded and guided by virtues like
shining suns What more grand than
such long life filled with such noble
deeds! What more glorious than the
ending-as drops the full ripe fruit from
the parent bough, of its own weight; as
painlessly as expires candle in its socket.
1t requires but slight stretch of fancy to
convert our honored friend into another
Enoch, translated from earth to Heaven
without tasting the bitterness of death!
Servant of God, well done!
Thy glorious warfares past
The battles fought, the race is run,
And thou art saved at last"

perhaps irreparable. injury to his own
royal person. Throughout the whole
region of Munich, commonly known as
"the English garden" parties OF horse
and foot police patrol the drives and
walks and require promenaders displaying
any disposition to linger on their way to
"pass on" His majesty is wont to drive
about the park attached to his palace in
close carriage. and has deemed it necessary
to ordain the organization of special meas
ures for the protection Of his life from the
regicidal enterprises of some assassin.
Happily for Wagner's favorite disciple, as

most inveterate democrat would scarcely
take the trouble, l should imagine, to put
an end to it.

The Next Governor.
Saxonville. Mass, May 7, 80.

Mr.. Editor AS it seems to be in order
now for the press of the state to discuss the
question of next governor, l suppose it
may be in order for the voters to do the
same. Permit me to say then that it would
be greatly to the credit and the interest of
the state if our absurd unreasonable one
term rule was broken and Gov. Proctor
renominated. Why not apply the one
term rule to the offices of secretary OF
state and treasurer? Because experience
is valuable and we cannot afford it. And
is experience of no value in the highest
office in the state? If the rule was broken
in reference to governor it might have an
influence in doing away with it in reference
to members of the legislature where its
effect is if possible still more pcrnicious.
But if we must have u new man then am
sure no name would meet more hearty
response from the great mass of the voters
of the whole state than that of Hon. Il. P.
Walton of Montpelier.
Mr.. Walton has so long been identified
with every thing pertaining to the state, its
history, its legislation, its good name and
its political and material interests that his
name is familiar and honered one in
very household. Voters would 90 to the
POLLS with his name at the head of the
ckct with the feeling of perfect security
nat they were making no mistake, and
we're not only voting for IN old, well tried
nd trusted friend, but for one of whose
.haracter and qualifications no question
could be made.
Now, if the coming convention wiU
nominate new man, why not go and do
What is so eminently fit to be done and
rive us the privilege of voting for Mr..
Walton? VOTER.

Berlin Letter.
BERLIN, May /, 1880

BERLIN, May l, 1880.
Ten years having elapsed since peace
was definitely concluded between France
and Germany, the federal chancery has
submitted to the imperial council of the
German empire final report upon the
manner in which the French war indemni-
ty has been disposed of. The total sum
exacted from France by Der conquerors as
the price of peace amounted, as will be
remembered, to considerably more than
81 ,OoO,OOO,0O0, every cent of which has
been expended, distributed to the several
German states, or invested in newly crea-
ted imperial institutions by its official
administrators before the conclusion of the
financial year 1878. 1t would appear
from the report in question that nearly
the whole of this vast treasure above
four-fold the national debt of Prussia-has
been devoted to purposes directly or indi-
dicty connected with the development of
Germany's military defences. The impe-
rial share of the indemnity is set down at
about S255, 500 900, $4,000, 900 of which,
in coined gold, lies deposited in the Julius
tower at Spandeau, and constitutes fund
wherewith the preliminary expenses of
Germany's next war may be paid in hard
cash. Other Sl40,000,000 have been EN-.
plowed in founding the imperial military
fund, while the remaining SSo,0O0,0OO odd
were spent in strengthening the defences
of Elsass-Lothringen and in remedyino
the damage done to property during the
war of 1901. The balance of the indem.
nifty was divided in exact proportion to the
respective numbers of their several popu-
lations, among the German states which
had participated in the Franco German
struggle, namely, the former North Ger
man Confederation, Bavaria, Wurtembere,
Baden and Hesse. The portion allotted
to the North German Confederation was
dedicated by act of parliament, July s.,
1878, to the liquidation of the war loans,
the re-armament of the imperial forces,
and the augmentation of the latter numer
ioal strength and fighting capacity. SINH
lar dispositions of their shares in the
mighty spoil were made by the minor
German states. Prussia spent her surplus
in constructing strategical railways and in
terrifying her eastern frontier. Thus the
colossal sums wruug from France in the
hour of her defeat and humiliation NAV
be said to have been entirely absorbed bv
warlike preparations and to have increas.
ed rather than diminished the burden
of military harness hitherto so manfully
and patiently borne by the long suffering
German people.
Although the musical mysogyorist who
wears the Bavarian crown has for several
years past lived Il solitary and secluded
life, remote from the busy world, its
changes and its cares. it would appear
that dismal tidings have from time to time
reached him of wicked attempts upon the
lives of anointed monarchs. The fire.
quency of such outrages has inspired him
with painful apprehensions that some
inartistic plebian may be stimulated BY
the seemingly growing popular prejudice
