WASHINGTON LETTER.


WASHINGTON, d. G. Dec, Sth, $50.
Mr.. Hayes is entitled to oil the
credit or discredit involved in the re-
tirement OF Generals Mcdowell and
Ord, and that OF several Bureau gen
erals soon to be announced. On
the whole, ] think he has done just
what he should, being what the law
certainly intends, although it does
not distinctly command it.
The annual message from the
White House was received by the
Senate and House OF Representatives
without manifestation of applause or
In fact the messages OF Mr..
Hayes have not attracted much Con
gressional attention for several years.
That portion of the present one which
speaks of progress in reform in the
civil service under the present Ad-
ministration is so absurd that il
must have inclined members to laugh
Ter, bat they suppressed their feelings
while it was being read. Everybody
knows that there has been more alb
senteeism among ofiice-holders dur
ing the present administration than
during any other, and more meddling
with politics, more contributions for
political purposes, These things
were not done boldly as the Jack
Shepherds of Grants time did them,
but slyly, as Noah Claypole would do
them.
Mr.. Hayes is able to truthfully say
that the crops have been good dur
ing his administration and therefore
he argues that the people have been
more prosperous than for years, He
points to the fact that our receipts
from importation duties have been
large, but does not say as he might,
that this indicates an accumulation
of wealth in few hands, as compar-
cd with the great mass of people. ]
do not think it unlikely that we. shall
have startling evidence soon that the
importatiops are greater than the sol
id increase of wealth will justify.
Mr.. Hayes also suggests that the
office of Captain. General be created
for President Grant.
The meeting Of Congress on Mon
day was without any event OF note
The two measures which have SC
far attracted attention either in com
mittee or in the House are the
refunding bill, and the resolution
providing for "joint rule" forcount
ing the electoral vote. This latter
proposition, which is simply to re
store the condition of aiiairs undel
which in 1868 and 1872 the vote wa
counted, was considerably discussed
yesterday in the House. So far as
the speaking was concerned, il
was ON the part of Democrats favor
able to an easly vote on the joint rule
while Republicans demanded uu'imit
ed time for debate. There will b.

suggests for the proposed 100000,

81 don't want to make any trouble,
but there is one man in this city ought
to be gibited!" began a blunt-spoken
woman of forty-five as she stood before
the officials of the Twentieth Street Sta
tion day or two ago.
When they inquired for particulars she
handed out a letter and said:
''Observe the envelope. The letter is
addressed to me. You will see that the
writer calls me his jessamine, and he
wants me to set an early date for the
wedding"
When the captain had finished the
letter she was ready with another, ad.
ding:
"and. this is addressed to my daughter
Lucretia. You will see that he calls her
his rosy angel, and he can't live if she
doesn't marry him. It's the same man. .
So it was, and his letter was as tender
as spring chicken. That finished, she
handed out third, with the remark:
"This is directed to my daughter Hell
en-. It's the very same man and in it he
calls her his pansy and he says he dreams
of her."
"Why he seemed to love the whole
family, remarked the captain.
That's just it. l am widow with
two daughters, and he was counting us
all at once and engaged to the three of us
at the same time. Oh! what wretches
there are in the world!''
"Yes, Indeed. 1t is lucky you found
him out"
"Yes, it is. If hadn't he might have
married the whole caboodle Of us. If
Lucretia hadn't opened one of my letters
and if hadn't searched the girls pockets
while they were asleep we'd have thought
him an innocent lamb"
"And do you want him arrested."
"No, guess not, but I want this mat.

other women. Just think of his sitting
up with me Sunday night, Lucretia on
Wednesday night, and on Helen Fri.

climbing rose! Oh, sir the women ought
to know what deceiving animal man Isl"
eyes, he's pretty tough"
"It has learned me lesson" she said
a. she was ready to 60. "The next man
that comes sparkling around my house
has got to come right out and say which
he's after. If it's the girls l won't say
nothing, and If it's me it won't do 'em a
bit of good to slam things around and
twit me Of burying two husbands!"
