President Arthur,s Letters.

President Arthur, it is stated, receives
600 letters every day Allowing bin to
give each letter one minutes time, ten
presidential hours OF the twenty-iou7
are accounted for. A famous English
man Of a century ago, who suffered from
the same kind of inundation, used
pleasantly to say that one-third of the
letters he received were answered, that
another third answered themselves, and
that the other third got no answers OF
any kind. It is to be supposed that
the President follows the precedent Ioi
the Englishman, who borrowed his
practice from a royal philosopher OF tho
Iassic time 8.

THERE is a natural feeling of resentment
against the Malley boysl of New Haven for
the abominable course of conduct clearly
proved against them, that almost inevitably
leads 10 the hope that they may be con-
victed of the gravest crime laid TO their
charge, and thus poor Jennie Cramer be
fully avenged. But close analysis of the
testimony thus far seems to show no case of
murder whatever made out against their
creature, Blanche Douglas, very little more
against Walter Malley, and a case consisting
almost wholly of violent inferences, full of
gaps and involved in contradictions and
proof of aiiJi, against James Malley, the more
brutal and vulgar of the two cousins. There
may be n moral conviction of their guilt in
the minds of the public, but scarcely legal
conviction by the jury. At the same time
il is gratifying to learn that if acquitted in
the present trial they will probably be ro.
arrested on charges of perjury in their testi-
mony before the coroner, and other ollenscs
committed in the course Of their nefarous
plot.

THE debate in the House on the bill for
an increased water supply showed that the
District has some staunch and intelligent
friends in Congress, able TO contend with the
prejudice and unreason of too many of their
tellow-members, and secure what is Justly
due us. Mr., lIewitps amendment in regard
to the apporionment of expense, though
complicated, doubtless seemed the best that
could he done TO overcome the objections of the
obstinate enemies of the bill and secure its
passage, and was therefore accepted by the
friends of the measure. There Is an entity
which rouses the fercest hatred of some
members very unnecessarily, and that is
' the people of the District of Columbia. ="
They do not seem TO reflect that they form
part OF this obnoxious body themselves so
long as they are here, aud that a good part
OF the rest OF it is made mp of their own con-
gtitueuts and friends, while here ON business,
pleasure, or in Government employ, The
comparatively few taX-paying residents here
are utterly unable to provide for taking care
of this multitude of sojourners.
