OUR SPECIAL LETTER.

WASHINGTON, D. C. Dec. 81, 1880.
New Years gift to one and all of the
numerous readers oi your paper, who will no
doubt reciprocate the favor by immensely in
creasng your subscription list-This with
any spare diamonds, embroidered slippers,
cashmere dressing gowns and fur gloves
may be left at the Office of this journal. It
is requested that no cigars or seal-skin caps
be sentj the editor and your correspondent
use the same sizes and il will be readily
understood that their transit through a
newspaper Office would at once be peremp-
torily arrested. That is only in accordance
with a long-established custom which ap-
plies to opera tickets, new books, early can
vas-bleks and KITS of mackeral. Christmas
and New Years is not christian solemnity
with the Knickerbockers; nor is it an al
most purely home merry making as it is in
Protestant Germany, in Sweden and Nor
way, where it is often called the "children's
festival" There the Christmas tree, lighted
with tapers and hung with manifold gifts,
sweet meats, bits of jewelry, toys and pretty
trihes, had its origin.
The holiday recess of Congress has come
without any action having been taken on
the two pressing questions Of the hour-the
refunding bill and the electoral count reso-
luton. 1t would have been more becoming
in Senators and Representatives to have dis
pensed with the celebration of Christmas
festivities at home and To have attended to
their legislative duties at the Capitol But
the exercise of legislative functions seems to
have a queer influence on mental resigna-
tion and to give rise TO the idea that those
who participate in making laws are relieved
from the necessity OF being governed by con-
siderstions Of the duty which they owe TO
the public.
The Congress will not re-assembls until
next Tuesday. The session is brief enough,
at best, to get through with the necessary
work, but brief as il is, time mus. be given
on the seeond Wednesday OF February for
the count of the electoral vote. It may be
that the joint convention Of the two houses
will dispose OF the subject IN day, and il
II may take them a week. The average
. Congressman Congress being made up prin.
J eipally of lawyers) delights in wrangline
7 oyer law points, aud at the coming joint
convention Georgia oilers the excuse for 3
J good deal Of legal higging. At tbs writing
} the outlook seems 10 be that Congress viii
, pass all of tue appropriation bills. eount th,
electoral vote, pass sone kind VI -eiundips

The State Legislature met Tuesday in
Harrisburg and organized by electing the
officers nominated in the Republican eau
cuses. In the Senate, E. B. Coke, of Lu-
zsrne, refused to be sworn in, and made a
statement, in the form of an address to his
constituency, assigning as the reason that
he had Inadvertently spent money in GER
tain ways during the canvass which did not
come under the bead of"expenses expressly
authorized by law" and he could not, there
fore, conscientiously take the iron clad oath
prescribed Ly the new Constitution. After
hearing the Governors message read, both
Houses adjourned.

The Petroleum World tells of Titus
vile man, agei 35, who is about to see his
father, wealthy resident of Youngstown,
o., for the first time. Forty-fve years ago
the mother set out for visit to her brother,
who resides in Curlsville, Clarion county,
this State While there a son was born,
and her visit was prolonged for a number oI
weeks. The uncle was ch!dless. He took
a fancy to the infant and wished to adopt
him. After much solicitation on his part
the mother at last consented, and the father
never saw the child, who grew up, went
West, served in the army during the war
and has only lately returned to his native
State.

An ice cave, in which is half an acre of
solid ice of unknown depth, was discovered
last summer on the Dry Fork Of Arrow
Creek, in the Belt Mountains, Montana, by
two explorers named Lambert, and Caruth-
ers. The Fort Benton Press says that the
ice gives every indication of being ir great
body, and it is believed from its appearance
and the fact that in the hottest season only a
iew,inches of it was melted that it is perpet-
ual. The locality is said to be great resort
for game.

dent Virginia Military Institutes,
writes us, June %: every member
of our graduating class wishing to
engage In civil engineering, and
qualified for it, has been engaged /"
A correspondent of the State writes
that the report of the superintendent
of V. M. l. states that he has an ap
plication from the chief engineer of
q leading Virginia railway for the
immediate services Of every member
of the graduating class qualified to
be civil engineer, and that the Pro
feessor of Civil Engineering, Col.
w. M. Patton, has a telegram from
Texas making the same offer for all
civil graduates, at seventy five dol
lars month. 1t is evident that the
educated men most in demand now
are civil, mining and mechanical en-
gineers, geol0gists, etc !; men who
can aid in the development of the
resources Of the country. We are
sorry to see that our colleges and
universities are this year furnishing
80 few Of those and so many other
judging by the law of demand and
supply, comparatively useless pro-
fessional men.-Me Vtrain'as.
