very likely that the grand list committe,

tFrom Our Regular Correspondent
Washington Letter.

WASHINGTON. d. C.. Nov. 20, 1880.
Washington is beginning to brighten.
The winter of our discomfort is giving
place to the glorious summer that comes
in with the new state of things. Already
the throng of camp followers, as they
may be called, who revolve about the
republican court, are finding their way
hither in search of local habitallon.
Washington has to expand to take in all
its citizens, legislators and visitors, and
those who come early to find place OF
accommodation are best off. Old visitors
know this and familiar faces are seen on
every side. The hotel Hobbies are filling
up; official life is reused from its stag
nation; the fashionable world is moving
on wheels in its daily round of visiting,
shopping and gayety. Gossip has com
menced too; and the political center
changes from hundred minor centers to
Washington. The rough political work
having been done, diplomacy takes a
hand, and this political axis, the capital
city, becomes the focus of political inter.
ests. The question that becomes most
important now is as TO the tone of the
incoming administration, and what public
men will be called upon to give it shape
Will it be stalwart as Mr. Blaine makes
the distinction, or liberal, as. President
Hayes calls it? 1t can only be said that
the president elect has made no pledges
because he has had no occasion to. and
hence no will follow his own convictions
These may be assumed from what hi
attitude has been in the past. He ha!
been thorough but not radica
republican; he has given support to the
stalwart element while he has not with
held sympathy from the efforts of Presi
dent Hayes to define policy that woulc
disintegrate the too solid south. The
result of President Hayes efforts are too
subtle to obtain notice now, but the soutl
has changed under his benign admins
tration. 1t will fall to President Garfield
to mobilize the new ideas that are spring
ing into life, and he will, no d. ubt, Civ
great encouragement TO the growth o
the new feeling developed in that section
1t will be his aim to split the solid south
to welcome it to republican ideas, and tt
shield it as far as possible from the
disaster incident to democratic policy n
defined by that party. The south il
believed to be ready for II new departure
which he will lead Further than this
can safely be assumed that the incomin
administration will call around it all tina
is best and purest in American life. In
tellectualy and morally high TONED
enlightened and cautious, dignitied an
yet simple, scholarly and yet practical, W
may well hope and predict IL wise an
satisfactory administration, elicting tn
respect of the United States and tn
Gentiles.

spirit of mischief, and acts out her nature.
The others. Messrs. Burgess, Strong and
Leonard. miners. and King and Harring-

Thanksgiving.

Of late years the old New England
festival of Thanksgiving has become ma
tional and as it has extended over more
space has lost some of its former int nsity
of local observance. In the earlier davs
Christmas..was so effectually ruled ont that
everything in the line of social celebra
ton and rejoicing conferred on Thanks
giving.
The settlement of New England origi-
mating in the desire to get away from
ecclesiastical oppression met with such
obstacles in an inhospitable climate and
severe conditions, to say nothing of Ind-
ans and wild beasts, as to intensity the
extreme soberness and rigidity of our
ancestors. They came in fact to such a
state of mind as to warrant How
ellis when in one of his later works he
gives the reason of the popularity in a
hill village of certain kind of tet-the
reason being that if afforded all the ex-
hilaration with none of the pleasure given
by that form of the beverage which it sup
planted.
But happily it was authorized by law to
have a good time at Thanksgiving. More
than that it was imposed as a religious
day to be joyful, And now that the old
severity of thought has in some degree
given place to more lenient views of life
there should be kept up the one festival that
redeemed the older years from their too
gloomy aspect.
Enumeration of the blessings that are
with us is too much of the arithmeticians
mode. When it comes to that the list
may be ever so long or ever so short-it
may even come to the thankfulness of the
old woman who exclaimed "blessed BIT
nothing"-the thing is to do the best pos.
sible with life and to be contented in do
ing it. Instead of discomfort at flllin {
short of what might have been, to be
content and thankful for what is.
In more general matters-those that
pertain TO communities in the first instanc,
rather than to the individual. - the pas
year has large balance in favor of the
right side. Business has Aourished anC
there is every prospect that it will con
