Protection Against Fire.
BY SUEL FOSTER.

| think most of the fires which occur in
farm houses originate from defective flues. The
carpenters are not careful to place the wood
work far enough from the smoke fue to make
it secure from fire. Where there are no brick
walls, the chimney must necessarily be sup
ported against the woodwork Then for safe
ty all the woodwork ought to be far enough
from the chimney to leave room for an extra
brick to be placed in to support the chimney
This will guard against danger from fire; for
when chimney burns out, as often occurs
the f1ue is frequently heated so that it will
crack, and the crack is as likely to open to the
wood as elsewhere.
My house was burned five years ago by the
overheating of tine kitchen flue. The flue was
not defective, but there was deposit OF SCOT
below where the stovepIpe entered it, which
burned long time. creating an unusual heat,
and heating the bricks through so as to set
the jolsts on fire. When rebuilt my house |
had the chimney built two bricks in thick
ness, instead of one, to secure 1t from fire.
The best way to build such chimney is to
set It on stone foundation, and leave an open
ing near the bottom. Then the chimney should
be swept out every six, or at least twelve
months and the SCOT all cleaned out at this
opening at the bottom.
To sweep a chimney take a long cord and
tie brush to 1t. and let one person go to the
top of the house and drop the end of the

Washington Letter.

Progress Of Legislation-7,0O0 Bills on the
Calendar-Seuen more weeks Of Congress-
about a Cabinet O6icer-7he merit Senate.
WASHINGTON, d. c. Jan. Is, 1881.
The week in Washington has not been par
ticularly remarkable, from legislative point
of view, although it has been characterized by
some heavy debating IN the House on the
funding bill, as well as solid work IN commit.
tees Of both houses on appropriation bills, and
the new census apportlonment.
There are at present over 5000 bills upon
the calendar of the House of Representatives,
and there remain about seven weeks of life to
congress, or just time enough to clear the
calendar of an average of 1000 bills per week,
Notwithstanding this state OF affairs, 1876 new
bills have been introduced this week. 1t is
not reasonable to suppose that the members
who are still introducing measures have any
expectation of ever getting them considered.
1t costs money to print these bills that can
never come to anything.
Just at present. politics delights most in fore
casting the future, and the many changes that
mnst soon take place in the administrative,
legislative and judicial branches of the gov
eminent are discussed in all their infinite re.
lations in influential political circles, as well
as In their dependent political demi-clrcles'
About the new cabinet there is much surmse,
though but little knowledge. All that can be
definitely known is that Mr.. Blame will be
secretary of state. There is a strong influence
urging the appointment of Mr.. Bruce, the
colored senator from Mississippi, for a cabinet
position. His appointment would produce an
interesting politico.social situation, which
those acquainted with the relations between
official and social life in Washington will
readily understand.
OF the new senators whose terms will begin
on the 4th of next March, thirteen have either
been elected or have been given nominations
that are equivalent to election. These thirteen
are Messrs. Miller Of California, Hawley OF
Connecticut, Bayard of Delaware, Jones of
Florida, Conger of Michigan, George of Mis-
sissipp, Cockrell of Missouri, Far of Nevada,
Sherman Of Ohio, Oliver of Pennsylvania,
Burnside of Rhode Island, Edmunds of Yer.
mont, and Malone of Virginia. OF these
Messrs. Bayard, Jones' Cockrell, Burnside and
Edmunds will be their own successors, while
the other eight will be new senator's Five CT
these incoming senators are republicans who
will take the place of democrats; two are demo
Gratis who will take the place of republicans,
and one (Mahone) is an independent Of the
eleven states that have not yet positively de-
clared their choice, it is pretty safe to predict
that Harrison will be the senator from Indiana,
Hale from Maine, and Dawes from Massachu-
setts-two new and one to succeed himself.
All three are republicans and one trom lndi-
anal will succeed democrat The result in
Minnesota, Nebraska, New Jersey New York,
Tennessee, Texas, West Virginia and Wiscon'
sin is yet In doubt. OF the last named states,
five will certainly elect republicans two demo-
Gratis, and one (Tennessee) is uncertain.

Dirty Kls,

One Of the Irish patriots now carrying Ire
land on In the path that "leads to glory or the
grave" Is thus described:
He Ia named in newspaper reports NJ. G
COnsidine, Esq, but better known to his fellow
citizens rs Dirty Mike" Mr.. Considine is a
| fiuc specimen of the good old crusted Irish
patriot. lie has pursued patriotism ever since
the days of Daniel O'Connell and 1t rebounds
greatly to his honor that he Is now rs poor as
when lie started as a patriot. THIS Milesian
DiOgenes is in many respects the most remark.
able man in the County Glare, after, If nos be.
fore, The O'Gorman Mahon himself He is
also the dirtiest. But the CRIME on Mr. Consi-
dine has romantic origin. 1t is the fakir's
robe of filth
When he was only budding patriot the
great Liberator once kissed HIM. Mr. Consi.
dine determined that the cheek sanctified by
the embrace of O'Conncll should never again
he protaned by water, that the kiss should
never be washed off, Without specializing as
to the degree of cleanliness previously favored
by Mr.. Consdine, it must be conceded that il
is very difficult to wash day by day, or week
by week, as the case may be, round certain
spot on the cheek, which, moreover, would
soon get out of harmony with the remainder
of the coun,enance 1t is easier, wiser,
better far to bring the whole face into har.
mony with the sacred sunny side of it, This
has been done; and the result is picture
worthy of Murlllo or Zubaran. From the
grlmy but handsome wel.cut face CLEAN al
pair of bright, marvellously bright, blue eyes,
and the voice which bids welcome to the
stranger is curiously sweet and sonorous. Mr.
Considine is quite the best speaker here, and
his summons will always bring an audience
to Ennis. One enthusiast said to me: "When
he dies may the heaven be his bed, and his
statue should be beside D Connells in Ennis"
Now, this model patriot, whom every one
must pertorce respect for his perfect honesty
and disinterestedness, keeps wretched little
shop in trumpery cabin. His stock in trade
consists of few newspapers, his pantry holds
but potatoes, and his wardrobe would set Mr..
Boucicault at defiance. Yet he is great pow
er in Ennis, and the candidate for the borough
who neglected him would fare badly. am
not insinuating that any charge OF venality
can attach to him. Quite the contrary lie is
admitted to be u perfectly disnterested citizen
by those most opposed to HIM socially and
politically. He has kept the sacred fires of
agitation burning since the days of O'Connell.
