The Hon. S. W. Dorsey, 254 Fifth avenue, New
York:
My DEAR SIR-Yours of the 10Th in
stant, with inclosure, came duly to hand.
am glad to hear that the letter of accept
ance is SO generally well received. Some
parties are kicking, as | expected, but, on
the whole, no serious damage has been
done. Thomas VI. Phillips, of Newcastle,
Pa. will visit you in few days, and ask
you to give him careful hearing. He has
made a special visit to Indiana, and he
has much of interest to communicate.
Yours, very truly, J. a. GARFIELD.
This indicates that at that early day
Garfield's mind was turned to the Indiana
election.

"TIIE SWAMP"
Fact aud Philosophy from the Northeast
orn Section OF the CITY.


Rents are higher, proportionately, in this
locality than in any other section of the city,
which is u great incentive to building. The
buildings in course of construction and in
contemplation greatly exceed any former
record
A neatly kept hotel, located convenient to
the government printing office, with plain,
substantial fare and reasonable prices for full
or partial board, would pay handsomely.
Since the season has arrived for casting off
overshoes boarding house hash has improved
in quantity, if not in quality.
The balmy, spring-like weather has sug-
gested to the mayor and aldermen of the
Swamp the idea of having n clamballe in Ju-
dietary square some Sunday in the near future
North Capitol street in the vicinity of the
government printing Office is one of the dusti-
Ost streets in the city when old boreas roughly
agitates its finely powdered dust. After cross
ing II on such nm occasion ono looks of tho
earth earthly.
The authorities are causing improvements
to be made to the parks, duty tardily per.
formed.
The government printing Office can boast of
several tight-pantled young men, aud some
times Of painted young men tight, as well as
the department of diplomacy.
The bold policemen still patrol the classic
precincts of the Swamp in couples. Why not
parade them in platoOns headed by brass
band or fife and drum corps, and thereby give
the thieves better show?
When will we have u line of bob cars rum
ming from Capitol hill through New Jersey
avenue to the boundary? No doubt such a
line would promptly pay.
Under the new order Of things the boys
fight the =" tiger" shyly, aud the "cappors "
are afraid Of being "Copped."
Tho latest inspiration of the poet laureate
of Swampoodlo has softened many hardened
heart and unloosed many hard SnOtted purse
strings. He merits myrtle wreath for his
manly brow.
The employees of the government printing
office, to the number of 500, men aud women,
have done highly cOmmcndable thing in or
ganizing the Government Printing Office
Mutual Benefit association" an economical
and sensible mode of life insurance. Hon. s.
p. Rounds is president, Capt. H. II. Brian, vice
president, with board of directors composed
of the heads of divisions and branch
offices. Tho plan is tho simplest possible,
with no accumulated funds to bo abstracted.
Tho initiation fee is but % cents, and
on II death occurring among the membership
each member composing the association is
assessed W, making sum Of $1,000, which Is
promptly paid over to the rightful heir or
heirs of the deceased person, being q hand
some sum for a family or parents in probably
an hour of greatest need. This action is
worthy of imitation in other establishments
engaging large number of porSUls.l 1t will
do untold good, and surely no cheaper or
safer plan of life insurance could be devised,
there being no high salaried officers, no ex-

Fiye-CeMt Governors.

Gov. Cleveland, of New York, was ten
days ago the nominee OF the democratic party for
president in 1854. His veto Of the bill reducing

chances for the nomination about as eiectuRlly Us

-.Fhc establishment Of u subpostal station in

the action of the city postmaster is thoroughly
appreciated.
MPlaces for dispensing wet goods multiply
much faster than churches and school build-
ings.
The wards of the nation keenly feel the
curtailment of their privilege to play policy.
Capt Brian has rendered the atmosphere
of The government printing Office as health
ful as soap, water, whitewash, and paint could
contribute. When he took charge of the
establishment its sanitary condition was
simply terrible from the neglect Of cleaning

Opening Day Among the Millinery Estab-
Iishments - What Novelties were Ex-
hibitcd.
Yesterday was "opening day" among the
great millinery establishments of Washington.
The backwardneSs of the season has had n
depressing influence upon the art, and thus
the display of spring styles has been delayed
until the very eve of Easter.
At Mrs. Palmer's on Fstreet, the exhibition
of styles was full and complete Here were
some exquisite triilcs in old gold, cardinal,
pale blue and mauve. There has been CON
siderable change in styles, the aesthetic inilu-
ence having had good deal Of weight. Hats
and bonnets allow of more individual adapta-
ton this season than at the last. White chip
is favorite material for hats, aud lace is
used even moro extensively than ever. Mrs.
Palmer's prices are about the same as last sea-
son. The milliners generally say there il no
Increases but, while not markedly SO, it is
evident there is an upward tendency.
At Mrs. Blouts, on Seventh street, a num-
ber of pretty designs were observed. Some
thing new was "A basket straw bonnet trimmed
in cardinal egrcts, with bands of leather lace,
the latter quite novel and effective. A favorite
style is the Empress Of mauve straw, very
high crown, plain, broad, fiat, rolling little to
one side, with heavy gold bands, or clab-
orate, large mauve feathers dropping towards
back of hair The favorite style for
misses and young ladies Is the rolling poke
bonnet, of white chip, trimmed in pnle pink
velvet ribbon, canary straw, wheat, and pale
pink apple blossoms, faced inside with pink
silk, broad baud of gold braid and fine pearl
beads.
Mrs. Max Weyl displayed a beautiful open
ing OF laces of all possible forms of delcncy,
arranged in the most artistic manner. Hcr
display of children's caps, speciality with
this firm, was equally artistic,

Gently received u patent ON very novel as
well as protective apparatus to bo used in

series of doors on the inside of the shaft
which are automatically thrown across it by
electricity as soon as the air is heated above
the normal temperature, cutting off all smoke
aud draught, thereby preventing the spread
of the fire. If this apparatus had been en-
