THE WIsE-LEwIs DUEL-The Alexandria
Gazette's Washington correspondent of the
gath, says:
The late difficulty between the Wises and
Lewises, Of Virginia, has all been amicably
ald satisfactorily settled Mr. George d.
Wise has told Shelley Lewis, son OF ex-Sena-
tor Lewis, that he had never impugned the
personal character of his father, and Mr. John
Amber Smith ,son-in-law of ex-senator Lewis,
has told Mr.. George D. Wise that what he
said about him here was said while excited by
the belief that l.. L. Lewis had been shot. The
whole correspondence viii be published in a

closets enough to satisfy my wife," But the
architect, who was a man of broad experience
told him he would have to put thousand

ries high, and then his wife would say when
it was completed, that there wasn't a closet in
the house big enough for cat to turn around

The following stanzas- from Tennysons Sin Me
nortam were quoted by Garfield in an address Oh
ne death OF President Lincoln, and the poem wa!
lis favor1te. There is peculiar and painful fitness
quoting these lines as applicable to himself. HI
vas indeed
As some divinely gifted man
Whose life In low estate began
And on simple village green;
Who breaks his births invidious bar
And grasps the skirts OF happy chance
And breasts the blows of circumstance
And grapples with his evil star;
Who makes by force his merit known
And lives to clutch the golden keys,
To mould mighty States DEGREES
And shape the whisper of the throne
And, moving up from high to higher,
Becomes on fortunes browning slope
The pillar of peoples hope,
The centre of worlds desire.

The publishers of New York
Truth have addressed a letter to MI.
Garfield, in which they say that they
are satisfied by the result of investi-
cation just reached, that he was not
the author of the MoREY letter, and
that they we're imposed upon. They
say that the investigations referred
t. have discovered the authors, but
withhold the names, which may or
may not be true. We confess that it
looks a little "ishy," especially when
it is remembered that the editor of
Truth is under Indictment for libel.
This may be the best way to get rid of
this unpleasant charge, and at the
same time better himself financially.
Had Truth spent the same "energy,
timAand money in a~scertaining
the g~enuineness of this letter before
publishing it to the world, that it
now claims to have done, instead of
manufacturing affidavits to prove its
authenticity, it might have saved
itself from the humiliating and dis
creditable position it now occupies
before the world.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our Regular Correspondent.
WASHINGTON, D. c.,
Ian. Ia. 1881.

Jan. Ia, 1881.
The Indian appropriation bill was
passed by the House yesterday, near
ly as it came from the committee.
An Intellectual attempt was made to
continue the Board of Indian Com
missioners. The Senate, however,
which never suffers a House bill to
90 through without an amendment,
may saddle the Board upon it. The
Board simply introduces confusion
into Indian affairs by dividing the
responsibility, and provides soft
places for a few of Washington's
p~rofessed philanthropists. This is
the fifth appropriation bill the House
has disposed of. The Senate is tardy
in taking them up, and have so far
taken action on none of them. The
House will receive the remaining
bills from the appropriation commit
tee very soon, and proceed with them
during the time not given to other
purposes by the rules. The three
measures in which most interest is
taken, aside from the appropriation
bills, seem to have better prospects
at least in the House-than they
had a week ago. They are the fund
ing bill, the Interstate commerce
bill aad the reapportionment bill
Upon the first named one there has
been a great deal of informal eau
cusing done of late. The tendency
of opinion is toward a higher rate OF
interest than three per cent, and 8
division of the issue into bonds OF
Treasury notes. redeemable at differ
ent times after two years.
Mr.. Reagan claims for his inter
State commerce bill, a majority Of
fifty in the House, and q certainty
of passage in the Senate. He will
be fortunate if he gets a vote in the
House, 1 think.
All who now speak of the reappor,
tionment bill, which will be intro.
duced this week by MI. Cox, say il
should pass. Even those Republi
cans who would do almost anything
for party sake, and who would like
to have the las passed by the
next House, because that House viii
be Republican, say this is the prop
er time for its passage.
Above I mentioned the rule:
of the House. When they wer'
adopted as the work of men likC
Randall, Stephens, Frye, Blackburn
and others, it was thought they
would be a great improvementsupoI
the old rules. This is not the gene
raj opinion in the House now. In
deed, the best parliamentarians fay
or another revision, and will prob
ably take measures during the ses
sion to secure it.
Yesterday, a special committee
with Representative Converse a
Chairman, was appointed to ascer
tain the facts concerning the alleged
improper use of franks in mailing
documents from this city during tn
Presidential campaign. There wer
charges against both the Democrat
and Republican Committees having

The timber lands of Ohio decreas-
ed from 9,749,333 acres in 1870 to
5,117,310 acres in 1877, a decrease
in seven years of over 4,5OO,OO0 &C
res. The forests of black walnut
are fast disappearing, and in a few
years there will be little of this val
liable timber to be had in Ohio. 1t
is estimated that it would require
one hundred and fifty years to re-
store the timber lands in this State
to the condition they were in fifty
years ago.
