From Our Regular Correspondent

WASHINGTON. d. c.. March 8, '82.
Tho two great rivals. Blaine and Conk-
ling, are again In front of the foot lights;
one by his masterful effort in the House
last Monday. and the other through his
appointment by the president and con-
firmation by the Senate as justice Of the
supreme court. There still seems to be
much doubt as to whether he will accept
the position or not, and people strangely
enough are discussing the question Of his
fitness for the bench.
Mr.. Conkling has been chiefly distin-
guished as q brilliant orator and ready
debater. As lawyer he has not had the
judicial training of Edmunds or Thurman,
but, considering the unquestioned ability
of the man, no one will doubt that he will
be able to sit with credit on the supreme
bench. Whatever may be doubted of the
business of his opinion, his manner. tone
and diction are sufficiently impressive,
not only for the highest court in the United
States, but for the day of judgment. The
records of the supreme court show that in
twenty years Mr.. Conkling had six cases
before it, while during the same period
Garfield had thirteen cases; and yet the
latter was never considered great law
yer. 1 mention this only to show how
little is known of the erudition of a pro.
fessional man, distinguished in o field
outside his profession. Judicial qualifica.
tons and the judicial frame Of mind are
quite distinct from oratorical brilliancy
but the distinction is seldom seen by the
public.
The business of congress is well al
vanced. The appropriation committee
have three of the general bills prepared
one of which-the pensions bill-will cal
for ninety millions of dollars.
The probability of reduction of in.
ternal taxes or of n material revision o
the tariff grows more remote as the session
wears on. Something will certainly b,
done to rehabilitate the navy, and the
plan to rebuild it gradually, in time o
peace, thus giving opportunity to utiliz'
improvements in naval structure, as they
develop, will meet with general approval
The fashionable season was brought tc
close by fitting tribute to the venerabl,
philanthropist and patron of art, w. w
Corcoran. A distinguished gathering as
sembled in Masonic Hall, and Mr.. Blaine
delivered short address to which Mr.
Coreoran briefly replied. Mr.. Corcoran'
name will be indissolubly associated will
the national capital. The Louise home
an asylum for aged gentewomen, nance
after his deceased wife; the Art gallery
the Columbian university and many minol
benefactions are his monuments.
Green-Mountain freeman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1844-1884, 1882-03-08

In a private letter to friend which has
been published. Senator Sherman SAYS: 81
see by your letter that you appreciate the
ordeal through which my enemies have
made me pass. After what supposed was
"A successful term Of duty in the treasury
| am obliged to contest with dead beats
and liars for my reputation. Still, it is the
order of the day to break down if possible
all who are not of certain school. The
men who are putting forward these libels
and ISLANDERS are irresponsible; suit with
them for damages would be n Joke and
the jail refuge" But severe as this
ordeal is to Senator Sherman we think he
magniies the effect upon the public mind
of the ISLANDERS which have been uttered
against him. They all bear the marks of
malice, or of certain purpose which are
so transparent, ms to blunt their point.
Attacks which are made simply for the
purpose of breaking man down, fail of
their end no matter how persstently thew
are made. The charges that Dir. Sherman
stole furniture for his house, etc., from the
government, are too absurd for anyone,
except those reckless and conceted news
paper correspondents who have an alto
gether exaggerated idea of the power of
printers ink to add veracily and weight to
idle vaporings.

Mrs. Webster, widow of Daniel Web
ster, whose death has been announced,
was born on September Is, 1898. In De-
cember, 1929, she became the wife of Mr..
Webster, and left her fathers house to re-
side with her husband in Washington. In
1889 Mr. Webster, being advised by his
friends and physicians to take protracted
vacation, was accompanied by his wife to
Europe. They took letters of introduction
to many notable English people. Among
these was one to cousin of the Duke of
Wellington, through whom they were in
troduced to Queen Victoria. The queen
invited Mr.. and Mrs. Webster to dinner.
Upon entering the dining room the hus-
band and wife suddenly found themselves
separated by the queen taking the arm OF
each and sitting them on each side of her.
Mrs. Webster was in Washington in 1852.
Since then she has led retired life. To
within three years Mrs Webster lived in
New York city, but in 1879 she chose New
Rochelle as her home. In appearance
Mrs. Webster was tall and well proper
toned Her forehead was high and broad,
her eyes dark and full.
