from our regular Correspondent
Washington, D, G., March IS, 1881.
This has been a famous week for
politics pure and simple. There has
been a complete neglect of pressing
public business in order that sena-
tors might have regular set to.
They have been at it now for more
than month, and there are to-day
as few signs Of cessation as VIII en-
they first began. There have been
days on which Hill, Lamar, Malone
Kellogg, Vance, Shermanand Voor
hees were individually the star ac-
tors. Senator Conkling has not yet
sired his thunderbolt at the admins
tration, and unless he performs
pretty soon the political wrangle
will grow stale and mcnotonous.
The principal topic Of gossip at
the Senate is in regard to the signi.
icance to be attached to the speech.
es Of Messrs. Sherman, Hawley, and
Burnside, delivered in the Senate.
The talk is that the two latter sena.
tors are close to the administration,
and it was expected Of them, if the
President desired break in the
present deadlock, to secure the con.
firmation Of his nominations, they
would be willing to abide some plan
to break it. Now, it is claimed
they have, by their speeches, served
notice that the Republican line will
not be broken, and if the President
desires to exert executive influence
to break it, it would be directed to
the Democratic side. Another the
DRY is that they have taken this
ground in behalf Of the caucus pro-
gramme IN accordance with the
views of the President, after consul.
tation with him.
A rumor is afoat, and it is credit.
ed in some quarters, that if the
deadlock continues much longer the
President will convene the Nth Con
gress in special session.
One Of the rumors aft:at is that
at the recent caucus committee
was appointed to endeavor to har.
monte these differences, and pend.
ing such attempt, the Republicans
have decided to show firm front
and insist upon the resolution to
elect the officers selected by the Re.
publican caucus. It is said that it
will be urged upon the President
that the confirmation Of Judge Ro.
3ertson, while it can be secured,
will cause the destruction Of the
Republican party in New York
that leaving senator Conkling out
Of the question, 1t is grave consi'
deration whether any such risk
ought to be taken. One plan is
that the President shall withdraw
Robertson, and nominate in his
stead some person of national repu.
tation outside of the state of New
York, who is allied to neither of the
factions, which distract the New
York Republicans, and let him ad.
minister the Office on business prin
ciples. In connection with such a
proceeding there has been rumol
that Senator David Davis would
not be Objectionable to any of the
clans. It is not believed though
the President would select Davis
even if he withdrew Robertson; but
if he should, then in such event the
Republicans in the Senate would
have constitut ional majority with
out the aid Of Mr.. Mahone's vote

An operate Ragman.

Not all ragmen are inconsiderate of
the popular ear. Now and then there
is a rag gatherer with mind above the
commonplace. In the colder part of
yesterday one of these merchants was
passing along Ninth street, towering in
his ancient wagon and pride of voice.
At his feet, half buried in the cargo sat
a wee boy. The humble vehicle and un-
pretentious horse moved with funereal
precision, All at once the man began
to sing:
II take old stoves!
take old clothesi
I take all kinds of rubbishv'
Then the small boy:
1--WE want old rags
And iron too;
Whate' er you have,
Well make it dc"
Next the man:
"Your right, good son,
That's how it's done.
We take all kinds Of rubbish
This lively entertainment was kept

well received all along the route, for

Old Age on a Lark.

The longevity of our Cape neighbors
is proverbial, as is also their pluck and
resolution. These qualities had an
amusing illustration on one of the Old
Colony passenger trains a few days
since. The car was well-filled, and
comfortably resting well toward the
center was an, aged lady, sweet-faced
and gentle of mien, accompanied by
her daughter. At one of the stations
there entered an alert, smart old lady,
quick in speech and movement. Taking
a seat directly in front of the first old
lady, whom she quietly surveyed few
moments, she commenced:
"Going far, marm?''
ITO New Bedford,' was the reply.
"Is your home there, marm?''
"No; it is on the Cape. lam to visit
a daughter in New Bedford
''May ask your age?''
Certainly; eighty-four years."
"La, you show it. Now, I've just
been visiting for few weeks, and am
on my way home. There's a few things
I want to see to there, and straighten
out, and then Pm off for another visit.
I travel about good deal, much to
some folks annoyance, because I'm so
old. But when !. can't take care of
myself I'll stop. 1 can hold my own
yet with conductors and baggagemast-
ers, and don't take none of their sass,
though don't find much of that on this
road. Now, how old do you take me
to be?''
Il cannot guess; how old are youP''
was the response.
"Mnety-eigh- going on ,aiaety-ni,1e.
And say when I can't take care of
myself I'll stop travelling; when I can t
see to thread a needle IN stop sowing,
and when can't enjoy living I'll stop
breathing. So there, now. But l get
out here. Name? Yes; it's Nancy
Randall, and I live at Marion. Come
and see me. I'm at home part of the
time. Good-by."
And with a nod and smile the young
woman of nearly a century passed
quickly down the aisle with the step of
almost girl, leaving the passengers
in wonder at her remarkable vigor and
vitality. The first old lady, who is the
mother of one of the Old Colony's most
trusted conductors, really appeared to
grow young again as she commented
upon the superior smartness of her
aged friend. Now where but on a
Cape Cod train could such scene be
duplicatedp Eighty-four and ninety
eight off on lark. "Such larks!'-

Grant Bouud for Mexico.

New York, Worlds Washington:
General Grant is expected from New
York tomorrow. After passing few
days with his friend, General Bea!e, he
will start for Mexico to attend TO matters
in connection with the railway project in
which he is interested. 1t is said that he
has subscribed SAC, 900 to the stock of the
new enterprise. The favor in which he
is held in Mexico will enable him, it is
believed, to secure from that government
more liberal concessions than have been
obtained by anyone else, and that is I'M
derstood TO be the purpose of his trip.
While in Mexico he will probably visit
the mines now in operation under Gov
ernor Sheppard. Great things are ex-
pected of these mines should a railroad
find its way to their neighborhood.

Frenchman was with an italian named
Paul, and suspicion wss aroused that
the latter has made way with him.
Later tonight the Republican re-
ceived another special from Dallas, stat
ing that neither GIAvier nor Paul had
yet been heard from; that dispatches to
California failed to procure the 1entii-
cstion of Gravier, and that when the

found pieces of candle wrapped
