OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.

WASHINGTON. D. c.; July II, 1882.
To judge from the expressions of
disgust coming from members of Con-
gress, anent the slow motions of the
Senate in preparing for adjournment,
one would naturally suppose that
very few of the honorable gentlemen
had come here from choice. They all
seem to have a bad case of home
sickness, and nearly every one have
met for several days past has insisted
that unless Congress rdjourned in q
week he would go home anyhow, and
stay there. The chief reason for this
haste to leave is the anxiety in the
Congressional mind about a renomi
nation. In nine cases out of ten the
Representative comes here to repre-
sent his own interests a great deal
more than he does those of his dis
trict. and when his hold on the place
is in jeopardy his heart is foyer the
sea" and there is a far away look in
his eyes. There ought to be a re-
arrangement of the sessions, or the
time for holding elections. so that the
Congressional campaign would come
in the year of the short session, end
ing the 4th of March. Then the en-
cumbents could go home to look after
their "fences" without interfering
with their duties. If the Senate adj
hered to its programme of amend
ments to Mr.. Kelley's tax bill, open
ing the door of discussion as wide as
that question must, there would be
sick lot of Representatives tanning
themselves in the south wing of the
Capitol.
1t is not true that Congressman be-
come tired of Washington life per Sc
BECAUSE, when personal interests do
not draw them away, the great ma
jority are 10th to leave the Capitol, a
fact which is attested by the large
number who remain here as lobbyists
and claim agents after their terms
expire. There is spice and variety
enough here to suit the most fastidu-
Gus or the most depraved-for the
quiet man who delights in his books,
his letters, or his Congressional work,
or the wild. registering fellows who
would rather view nature through |
the bottom of glass than listen to
the most logical argument on Ma
tional affairs, who take especial de-
light in an occasional game of draw
poker, or find solace In the company
of the fair queens of society. To be
sure, it is trifle dull during the sum.

few degrees warmer than in some

Ofthe latter there must be all Of 200
The hills are covered with mules, and
men are thicker than mosquitoes.
About three miles Of the Wood
River branch is completed, and Mr.
Smith, one Of the contractors, has
just moved his boarding-houses and
supplies to Patton's station, and is
stringing out his men beyond that
place. Other contractors arc also
moving on to the branch line from
the main line. AS they complete
their contracts cast or south of the
junction, they are put en- the branch
Not. a soul is working west of the
junction, as the mos. positive orders
have been given to transfer all the
gangs to the Wood River branch as

send troops to Egypt.
The President of the Board Of
Trade declared that the Government
made it cardinal principle, SC far rs
was possible, to maintain the French
alliance. He said that Arab Pasha
had assured the British representa-
tive in Egypt that there would be no
danger consequent on the arrival of
the English fleet at Alexandria.
Chamberlain expressed his full belief
that if the fleet had not been sent to
Alexandria, the loss OF life would
have been much greater than it had
been, and the state Of things in Egypt
would be much worse than is the case
at present.

Cash heriH's Posses In Pursuit.
About IL o'clock Tuesday morn

by four highwaymen, armed with re-

point between Cassia and Raft river,
and abott 50 miles frem kelton, and
Wells. Fargo d Co.'S two treasure
boxes we're broken open and robbed
Of their contents. One Of the boxes
was the regular Overland express
box that carried the Boise, Eastern

packages; and the other was the
Wood River box.
The highwaymen were cinching
their saddle horses when the stage
drove up, but they ordered the pas
sengers and driver to get off and
hold up their which was
promptly done, and while the leader
Of the highwaymen kept guard over
them, took down the treasure boxes
and mail sacks. The boxes We're
broken open, and the thieves were
about to open the mail sacks, but
their leader ordered them to desist.
The stage was then thoroughly
searched, as were two of the passen-
gers, the other one, lady, not being
searched, as one Of the mail passcn-
gers said that she was his wife.
She had about $500 on her person.
which was. therefore, untouched.
The male passengers were relieved
of between 500 and $500, but the
driver said he had no money, and
was not searched. One OF the male
