ut is loug journey from the Eastern
Metropolis across the prairies aud plains
of the West 10 Colorado, but il is through
such a diversified country, affording
glimse OF SO much varied and interesting
scenery, that time and space are alike
annihilated, as it were, without fatigue
or WEAKNESS, In these days of multiplied
railroads aud luxurious accommodations
travel in every direction Is reduced 10
the maximum of comfort and speed, but
nowhere do these conditions exist in a
greater degree than in the great West ;
and to the open-eyed observer there is a
charm in gliding over this vast expanse
of country, the panorama of which opens
out before like the views of kaleidos-
cope, to be found in nothing else. Yet
in this fast age even Lightning express
trains are too slow for the impetuous
American who now looks forward TO the
day when 'balloon navigation" will be
the thing.

ALL FOR PLUMBER.

Next to the rejoicing by the Republi-
can leaders over the success of the River
and Harbor bill, notwithstanding the
Presidents veto, is the satisfaction they
feel that the Democrats came to their re-
lief in both Houses, shared in the ini-
quity, and took their part of the respon-
sibility. 1t was not till it became GER
tain, says the N. Y. SUN, that the Demo-
Gratis would come up to their work. and
TINS draw the teeth of the question as
party issue in the coming canvass, that q
sufficient number of Republicans dared
to vote to pass the bill over the veto
How soon have the words of the Presi-
dent been verified, that the more obiec-
tionable the bill the stronger it is There
being millions enough in it to go round,
carrying the bill over the veto became
comparatively easy.
Although the original responsibility
and odium of the bill rest on the Repub-
lican majority, the Democrats, by rescu.
ing it from death by the veto. take their
share of both.
Robson has cracked his whip over
Democrats as well as Republicans. A
truthful picture of this final assault on
the Treasury would show Democrats,
heretofore honored for resisting such in.
iquities, following Robson with equal
eagerness for their part of the plund, i
Outside of Washington the feeling and
motives which have prevailed in Congress
IN the passage of this bill cannot be per-
fectly understood. There is no way to
give an adequate idea of the fierceness OF
the determination awakened by the veto.
Men who all the winter had been plan.
ming to sack the Treasury saw the mil.
lions on which they bad almost placed
their hands apparently snatched from
them by the Presidents action. 1t was
no time to listen to reason or consult
conscience. The wild shout vas raised

inches. On the Brooklyn side the descent
of the grounds surface is 30 much sleeper
that the "approaoh" TO the Bridge Is but
997 feet. Including The land space on
each side, the total length of the bridge
and approach is 59S9 feet, or 7s9 feet over
one mile. Tho width is s5 feet. There
are four suspension cables each 15l inch
es in diameter and each cable comprises
$500 steel wires, wrapped into cylindri-
cal The foundations for the towers are
laid As feet below high water mark on
the Brooklyn side and rs feet on the New
York side. These are two pets. At high
water mark the towers measure 140 feet
by So, They rise 277 feet above high
water (more than 80 feet higher than the
Bunker Hill Monument) and at the top
they measure 1876 feet by SO. The height
of the floor above high water line at the
towers is 119 feet inches, and in the
middle of the river span 1876 feet. This
is abridged information from various
sources and if you learn IL by heart, and
don't get the figures mixed ESQ as to put
the depth of the foundations 1895 feet,
for instance) you can pass for man of
immense statistical knowledge.
UNCLE SANS LEGACY.
There not many such patriotic individ-
uals as the late Joseph L. Lewis, of Ho-
boken. that is, if patriotism means love
Of country, and if leaving a good thump-
ing legacy in ones will is any proof of
affection. Lewis was an eccentric old
man, somewhere between eighty and
ninety years old. He ought to know his
own mind after carrying it around with
him for four score years, if be was ever
going to, and that he had practical
mind was evidenced by the fact that be
had accumulated million and a quarter.
When he died, some years ago, he gave
81, 900 to other charities, and left the
bulk of his estate to the United States,
TO be applied to the reduction Of the Ma
tional. debt Perhaps this was proof
enough of his being crrzy, the usual
thing being to get as much out of the
Government as possible. and do as little
for it, as the law will allow. Anyway,
the heirs (who wanted to be heirs, but
found the will in their way) contested it,
and the fight has been long and bitter,
through any number of courts, and years
enough to bring gray hairs to the heads
of the fighting relatives. Finally, a
special act of Congress was passed, au-
thorizing compromise and under a
settlement reache- between the parties
about one fourth of the estate is to go to
the heirs and about 5000, 600 to the U. S.
to be applied to reduction of the Ma
tional debt, and that amount of Govern
ment securities are to be cancelled. Is
there anybody who wants to leave me
100000 toward canceling my debt to
the plumber for stopping leak in my
cellar2

THE LAST CONGRESS.

Every one OF patriotic impulses will
rejoice that Congress has adjourned. 1t
has exceeded in the pr, fligate expendi-
ture OF public money and in unwise leg
islation any congress that ever convened
since the foundation OF the Govern ment. +.
The House OF Representatives showed its
quality (and maintained its reputation to
the end) when at the beginning of the
session it elected Keifer. Speaker.
When Congress met in December there
was $3.50, 900. 600 surplus in the Treasury.
Now how much is there after the outrage
Gus appropriations that have been made
since the fateful month when these Re-
publican jobbers led by the cool, i'm
placable Robeson, made their descent
upon the money boxes of the nation?
The moutb-piece of the Republican
party argued that because the Democrats
had been niggardly iu their expenditures
it was no reason why Republicans should
"higgle" over the expenditure of few
million or so, and his brethren Of TIE
same faith seemed to agree with HIM
But this preteutious assertion does moi
remove the obloquy which must attach tC
the name of every man who had hand
in perpetrating in the name of public
improvements, by appropriations OF the
public money, the most monstrous frauc
ever inflicted upon this people.

by the notorious Robeson has been inteut

There is an old and stupid fiction
about the bold Briton who armed hinl-
self on the steamer, before landing in

buffalo, whom he expected to see pranc-

There is probably no man in the coun-
try who does more work than the Presi-
dent Quite certainly no man in the
country does more irritating and aggra-
waiting work than the President. 1t is
pleasant enough to receiyea social call or
to shake bands with friend; but when
shaking hands becomes a duty, and re-
ceiving all sorts OF callers a necessity, the
pleasure Of the thing dwindles most mag

ENGlAND's PERIL

1t is very evident that England has o
big job on band in her campaign in
Egypt. For years she has boon bully
aud a bulldrzer. Her immense resources
have enabled her TO carry everything be-
fore her almost without let or hindrat ce.
Subjugating, as sue undertook to do and
did, the ignorant and uuskilled in the
arts of war, victory has perchedu upon her
banners. Now she is confronted by
host, which, while they are not prscticed
warriors or equipped with modern weap
oAs which h,lp to make formidable op-
position, are earnest and determined.
There are thousands of miles of territory
to traverse-a territory as fruitless and
unfavorable for warfare as the barren
deserts one has read Of in the pages of
fiction. All Europe refuses to cooperate
with England in this new warlike move
and she will be compelled to call on every
reserve to save her honor and her name.
Successful as she has been in the past.
she has now on hand a contract TO fill,
which only the shrewdest diplomacy cau
compass. With dis. otisfied people in
Ireland, with contention everywhere in
her dominions, the situation for her sta.
bility looks perilous indeed. Purse proud,
arrogant and overbearing as she has been,
there is scarcely a nation-we don't be-
lieve there is one-tbnt would regret her
downfall. Her course, heretofore, has
been onward and upward, regardless Of
consequences. The lives of men-men
with families dependent upon them, Il Q
lives Of men whose fathers and mothers
looked to them for support in their old
age-were as nothing Royalty must be
supported-the nations honor must be
preserved, even at the cost of such hu-
man blood rs this. Such are the beauties
of monnrchial rule. Happily they do
not exist here. Men may come and men
may 60 iu accordance with the recogni-
ton of their merits. Some leave their
imprint on the sands of time, but the
