WASHINGTON LETTER.

WASHINGTON, ID, c., Feb. -, lSS2.
TWO years ago Senator Roscoe CoukllnC was
the recognized leader of the Republican party
In New York and Chester A. Arthur, the depos-
ed Collector of the Port OF New York, one OF
his lieutenantS. Yesterday Pres ident Arthur
sent to the Senate the name OF Mr.. Conkling, a
private citizen, for confirmation rs Associate
Justice OF the Supreme Court OF the United
States. When the sheet containing his and
Mr.. SargentS nomination was passed round
and read in the Senate, 1t created quite n stir,
as everybody WAS surprised, especially at the
nomination OF Mr.. Conkling. There is consId-
erable speculation as to whether Mr.. Conkling
will accept or decline. It is BsId he was not
communicated with on the subject, and some
of his friends think he will decline. Should he
do so it is regarded as among the strong prob
abilitiet that Senator Edmunds will be appoint
cd. Up to the last moment the friends of Mr..
Sargent insisted that he was to be made Secre-
tarY OF inc Interior, and they now say thar this
was the programme recently.
Later in the afternoon it was stated at the
Capitol, by those who as sumed to know, that
Mr.. Conkling was formally rendered the ap-
pointment on the Supreme Bench before 1t was
made public, and that he signifed his accept

confirmation by unanimous vote.
Gen. Grant will arrive Mt the White House,
on his visit to President Arthur, the first week
in March The exact date of his arrival is not
known at the White House. This visit will be
OF about 4 weeks Duration. IL he is placed on
the retired list under the bill which passed the
Senate yesterday, his pay will be three-fourths
of $13.500, the pay of the general OF the army.
A retired officer OF the army has not all OF the
perquis,tes-such as communication for fuel,
quarters. &c.-enjoyed by officers on the :active
list.
Lent being upon us, the vOtaries OF pleasure
are taking well earned rest, and until the
season Is over there will be nothing in the way
of social events worth of chronicng.
Mrs. Belva Lockwood, the female lawyer OF
Senator Ben. Hill notoriety, IS gaining con-
siderable notice in legal circles: her business. is
rapidly increasing: and frequently she Is found
on cases of considerable Importance, and has
demonstrated the fact that as an opponent her
ability has been much maIlgned. She goes a.
bout the city on tricycle., defying public crib

gliding along our smooth asphalt :pavements to

ing profitable business. She did not

to be exc mpted from taxation and talk
of "busin ess' and enterprise" and
damn the town and every wealthy
man in it tor not investing his money
in ''home enterprise" bur she made
up her mind what to do and then went

The Musical Convention at Rebcrsburg.

IHe muAICdl CO1YcntiOn aL ReDcFSDufg.
Although our little hamlet is no pro-
g"essiye town in the fullest sense of
the word, perhaps owing to lack of
natural resources, yet the week inst
past demonstrated beyond a doubt
that her citizens are sufficiently alive to
get up and support musical conven-
tion.
The largest class of singers that per-
haps ever assembled in Centre county
was to be seen in the Lutheran church
here, led by that prince Of fellows,
Prof. J. A. Weaver. ALI things SEEM
ed to work together for good during
the convention. The weather was
most favorable-peUty jealouSies were
buried and everybody seemed to work
for success as il it were matter Of
personal interest. No less than one
hundred and eighty-seven class tickets
were sold. Freeburg, Adamsburg,
Woodward, Aaronsburg, Millheim,
Penn Hall, Spring Mills, Centre Hall,
Lemont, Madisonburg, Centre Mills,
VOLTS Store, Logansville, Salona,
Milesburg, Dakota, Ill.,, and other
places were represented in the class.
1t was week of pleasore and enjoy
ment to all, from the little boy to the
gray-haired sire, whose spectacles had
to be called into requisition to realize
benefit and pleasure.
The sessions were also well attended
by spectators, especially the concert,
when the spacious church was filled to
it's utmost capacity.
The financial results are also exceed
ingly fattering. the proceeds being up
wards of $175., thus fully realizing the
object of the committee who worked ST
vigorously for its success.

A Warning From the Gallowa


Frank Rumberger, one Of the mur'
derers OF old Mr.. Troutman In Dau-
phin county now sits in jail waiting Ia
be hung. He has this to say Of bad com.
pany and bad looks:
"As a warning to young men and
boys from six years old to manhood, !

panic MS Of all kinds-the low in char

Foul widows of ex.Presidents Of the
United States are to be placed OIL the
pension roll of the country. Their
names are Mrs. Julia Gardener Tyler,
Mrs. Sarah Polk, Mrs Mary Todd
Lincoln and Mrs. Lucretia Rudolph
Garfield. Mrs Lincoln has heen pro-
vided for and the other three ladies are
to have life pensions Of 5000 q year
from Sept. 10th, 1881.
The Franklin Spectator says: "By a
late decision Of Judge M'Dermitt the
applications FOR license in Mercer coun-
ty and those who sign their petitions
will have to swear that the house to be
licensed is necessary to the travelling
public, and would be benefit instead
Of an injury. The decision alec raises
the price of license from fifty dollars
10 two hundred and fifty dollars. The
decision reSives what is generally
known rs the iron-clad law and will
certainly make the rum traffic in the
Mercer diocesea question Of difficulty
and considerable expense.

DRY GOODS

UNLIKE many other cities In the south and
west, Dallas is seldom affected in her wholesale
trade by what is known as the dull season.
When one crop becomes exhausted another
comes In, and thus trade is continuous, whereas,
If business was dependent on the cotton crop
alone there would be long periods during the
summer months when transactions would be
light. The dry goods, like all Others III the
city, has continued to increase and sales are re
ported by dealers us far better than ever before
ut this season. A very large number OF mer-
chants in north Texas never think of buying In
any other market and those who do investigate
prices in more distant cities are sure TO return Ia
this place where they find they can buy as low
and on as favorable terms as In any other whole
sale point In the country. There are only few
changes To note In our quotations, prices gcnor-
ally being very firm and steady.
