THE ATLATIC MONTHLY.

The March Atlantic has an unus
sually large and varied list Of con
tents, which should make it a very
popular number. MIR. n. III Egles-
ton tells "The Story of the Hoosac
Tunnel which, as one Of the great
triumphs of modern engineering, as
having involved endless discussion
in Massachusetts, and as being the
route of one of the great thorough
fares of the country, has national
interest. Prof. N. S. Shaler con-
tributes a paper on Hurricanes, y
which, in view of the experiences of
the past year, will surely find large
number of interested readers. Rev.
E. z. Hale continues his articles upon
the Life and Times of Jesus Christ,
with an account of "a Visit to Jeru-
salem" which reproduces with won~
derful distinctness the scenes and
characters which give to that visit q
never ending attraction. An anon
ymous paper surveys THE Political
Situation" with no little ability and
candor, and those who are curious
about the future of the two great
parties will do well to read this. An
engaging article on Hymns and
Hymn-Tinkers," by a. P. Hitchcock,
will very wellrepay reading. Elizabeth
Robins contributes another of her
very interesting essays on mythology,
| this time devoted to Loki. Prof.
John Trowbridge, under the title OF
Life and the Daeam of Life" dis
cusses with vigor and great intelli-
gence the relative value of different
departments Of study. H. FL. writes

NJ. Quincy reviews recent volumes
on the Campaigns of the Ciyi
War. Besides poems by Charlotte
T. Bates and Edith II. Thomas, Mr.
Whittier contributes one entitled
"At Last" and DR.. Holmes one
Before the Curfew" The similari
ty of the theme and the character
istic differente in treatment of these
two lsst-named poems, and the deel
thought and religious feeling in both
are SO noteworthy that they canno
fail to attract a wide reading ano

Speaker Keiter and His Committees.
Chicago Tribune


Chicago Tribune.
It is evident that the Republican
majority in the National House Of
Representative made serious mis-
take in the election of Mr.. Keller to
the Speakeiship. Mr. Keifer is by
no means an ideal Speaker. He Is
naturally slow man. He is not
quick to apprehend the merits of
parliamentary questions stated to
him, and he has not the gift of ex>
preston which would enable him to
make his decisions clear and posi-
tive when they are given. He is no
match for Randall, or Cox, or Black
burn in any parliamentary dispute,
though he may have soldier attain~
ments than any of them. He lacks
the nimbleness or alertness of
intellect, which is the first quail
ifcation of a good Speaker. The
House will feel the effects of Mr.
Refers deficiencies 10 this respect
before the session is much further
advanced. Everything has been
made smooth for him in the first
weeks of his term of Office, but when
the acrimonious party debates begin,
as they will soon, no further indul-
gence will be granted to him by the
opposition. 1t seems probable also
that Mr. Keller will not know how
to expedite public business as a good
Speaker should. His temperament
does not dispose him to view favor~
ably quick work of any kind, and
an easy pace in the proceedings OF
the House will be quite suited to his
habits.
But the chief objection to the elec
ton of Mr.. Keifer does not relate so
much to his personal fitness for the
place as to the selection Of commit
tees which it involved. A poor
Speaker may get on we'll if he has
competent committees to support
him, and a good Speaker may guide
poor committees in safe channels
but when neither the Speaker no1
committees command the confidence
of the House, the result is apt to be
unfortunate. This is the case in the
present Congress. There never was
a time when the reports of commits
tees carried so little weight with
them as in the present House. The
committee on rules was first badly
defeated on proposition to increase
the size of certain of the other com
mittees. The committee On ways and
means reported in favor of relieving
the Rending Railroad of half mil
lion in taxes, and the recommends

WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY %, 1882.
WASHINGTON SOCIETY.

It is the fashion in these latter
days to forget all the good things of
the last administration and remem-
her only its mistakes. Not only are
these faithfully remembered, but they
are studiously exaggerated, and in
many instances grossly misrepresent-
ed. That the administration of
President Hayes habit mistakes and
it's weaknesses, few will deny That
it was in many respects wise and
benefcient, most unpreiudiced per-
sons will admit.
One of the reforms inaugurated
under that administration, though it
may appear trihing and unimportant,
was really one that was very much
needed The fashion had grown up
previously, for Cabinet officers and
their wives, Senators and Represen-
tatives and their wives, to give costly
entertainments, where the giddy
and the gay assembled to display
their silks, satins, diamonds and
costly apparel, 1t was temptation
to vain persons, ambitious to shine
as leaders in society, to outliye their
income, aud to incur debts never to
be paid, or to add to their income by
dishonest means
When President Hayes came into
Office, aided by the strong common
sense of his good wife, he and his
official family resolved to discourage
extravagant living, and thereby re
move from the weak and unwary the
temptation to spend more for idle
show and silly parade than WAS JUS
titled by their legitimate income
Hence, the administration was the
subject Of no scandal growing out of
such practices. No tickle Mrs.
Belknap involved too willing hus
band in dishonest transactions, for
the purpose of raising money for
the qualification of weak
ambition for display, and to gain
the applause of the giddy throng
who live only to dress and dance and
dine.
The whole country at the time
applauded Mr. Hayes and his wife
and his Cabinet officers and their
wives for what was then conceded to
be wise and rational reform. 1t
gave strength and encouragement to
that class of persons all over the
country, old fashioned though they
may be, who believe it to be virtue
for people to practice frugality and
live within their income. Judging
from the reports i'll the newspapers,
Washington society is not now what
it was during Hayes administration.
Whole columns of the metropolitan
newspapers are filed with glowing
reports of splendid entertainments
given in official circles. These re.
ports sparkle with bright descrip-
tions Of the brilliant cos
tunes worn by the wives
and daughters of Cabinet officers,
of heads of foreign legations, and OF
Senators and Representatives. By
this means rivalry is engendered,
as to who shall appear III the finest
laces, silks and satins, and adorned
with the costliest diamonds. Whole
columns of names appear, with

fanciful decorations. OF course,

Mr.. vanderbilt's Joke.

A number Of friends invited MI.
Vanderbilt to take dinner at the
League house, and when the cham
payne had been reached and the par.
ty had come 70 that state Of jollity
which begets familiar pleasantly,
Mr.. Vanderbilt offered to bet any OF
all the gentlemen present that they
could not guess within Ave dollars
Of the price of the suit Of clothes
he had on. Of course there were
plenty of takers. Most Of the gefi-
tlemeN out Of politeness and for
other obvious reasons named a high
figure, from s75 TO @l25. aWell, Z
said Mr.. Vanderbilt, leisurely, aftef
thesbets hAslslh hestSs Ansu
I'll take this pool. My suit cost me
precisely $25" The party laughed
at this unexpected denouement, and
Mr.. vanderbilt's economical tailor
was heartily toasted. All this goes
to show that Mr.. Vanderbilt is a
man Of cheerful disposition and
fond enough of fun to lay down
some of the cares Of business and
enjoy himself as man Of his means
should.

Barnum recently offered a $4,000
bonus to the handsonest man in
the country, providing he would

gers circus during the coming sea-
son. A correspondent says:
Male beauties are sending photo
graphs without number to Barnum,
Bailey. and Hutchinson from all
parts of the country, the incentive
being that $4,000 prize. Most of
the letters accompanying the pict-
ures present the claims of the SEN
der with surprising modesty. Here
is sample of one mailed from
Troy:

may say, gentlemen, that l consider
myself better looking than nine
tenths Of the men ! ever saw. My
height is five feet four, complexion
clear as a girls, large expressive blue
eyes, with lovely, long )ashes, a
head like the late Lord Byron's and
beautiful bushy hair, inclined to be
curly, just sufficiently inclined to be
fascinating to every lady / meet.
In the street the ladies frequently
look after me, and l have often
heard such expressions as: oh, isn't
he lovelyp What a noble, hand
some manr made by passing femi-
mines. / wish you to let me see

The individual may not take the
prize but he's unquestionably enti-
tied to the "cake."

To the People Of the 2nd and
4th Judicial Districts.

Since the circular with the above
heading has been misunderstood,
and in some cases purposely mis-
represented, the undersigned, in be-
half Of the central committee, make
the following explanation:
The circular is not intended to
hasten the admission of Dakota as a
state. The question Of admission,
like all other questions suggested, is
left open for discussion by the con-
vention. No one who signs this
pledge is thereby pledged either for
or against any of the proposed sub
jects of discussion. Nor does the
circular have any hidden or ultcrior
purpose. 1t is not issued in the in
terest of any party, or faction, nor
is it intended to be the basis of any
new political action. 1t is not
meant to advance the interests OF
one section of the present territory
or the future state. There is no in
tention to forestall public action on
any topic, for the proposed conyen-
ton is to be in no sense whatever
caucus.
In short, the circular and the con-
vention suggested by it, have no
other purpose than to invite full dis
cussion of all subjects that would
come before the constitutional con-
vention that shall assemble under
the enabling act of congress.
This discussion will prepare the
way for the people to act wisely and
safely through the delegates they
may choose to the constitutional
convention.
We can thus be ready to come
into the Union, whether this year or
next, with such constitutional safe
guards as shall secure the best in.
terests of the state for generations to
come.

There are, we are glad to say,
some exceptions to this general rule.
There are a few men, forced by cir
cumstances to dwell among these
sons Of Belial, whom it is a pleasure
to meet-honorable, highmindcd
men, than whom nobody more deep
ly depleres the lawlessness Of their
neighbors; but they may be said to
live in a state Of constant nervous
ness. Their lives pre- in their hands,
their trust in God, and they are at
particular pains to keep their pow
der dry.
In conclusion we have only to
say, that unless some steps are Ia
ken to cheek TIE growing spirit II
hellishness in this section, that the
chapter covered by the next ten
years will be much more bloody
than that of the last. Immunity
from punishment has made them
reckless. There is a class Of young
hoodlums growing up, who, in i'm
morality and crime, it would be
hard to equal on Gods footstool.
They will naturally try to improve
on the records Of their progenitors.
Therefore it is meet that justice
should awaken in Union county.
that long-suffering people, who for
twenty years have paid the bloody
bills of this nest of scounarels. may
no longer be compelled to do so.
An example or two dangling at the
end of a rope would do more to re-
form Hell Bend than any plan to be
found between the covers Of the re-
vised New Testament. Let them
know that speedy and swift punish
ment will follow crime, and blood
will cease to be a common sight in
He'll Bend; let them know that the
rope awaits the murderer and mur-
der will become extinct.
