Washington Letter.
Regular Correspondence.
WASHINGTON, May 90, 1884

w ASHlNtlbN, NAY ~, lCCf
Although large number of congress
men attended the horse races held here du-
ring the past week, and many others went
on an excursion to the battle fields of Vir-
ginia, the House transacted a good deal Of
business in IA quiet way, The District re-
ceived some friendly Legislation, the reve-
me bills of Hewitt, Tucker and O'Neill
were introduced, and the bill providing a
civil government for Alaska was passed.
Work was completed on three regular ap-
preparation bills, namely the Consular and
Diplomatic, the Army and the District
of Columbia. On Saturday the most i'm.
portant business was the passage Of the bill
extending the term of the Alabama claims
Commission.
The chairman on the committee on Coin.
age being asked If any Legislation could
be proposed to relieve the panic, replied
iocularly, Il don't know what can be done
II seems panic will come no matter what
We do. If we reduce taxation, we are told
that impairs protection, upsets manufactur-
ing interests, and a panic follows If we
devote the surplus In the treasury to paying
off the national debt, we are told that des-
troys the national banks, contracts the cur
rency, and produces panic. We seem to
be in fix where legislation can't help us"
When the diplomatic appropriation was
up, and the proposed reduction of the sal
aries of our foreign representatives was be
ing discussed, Congressman Curtin made a
sarcastic speech. 1t was suggested by
remark from a member to the effect that
only rich man could afford to accept these
missions. Mr.. Curtin said the House was
no place to speak well of wealth, but an
admirable place to defend poverty. He
was afraid to say anything about riches
here, everybody was so fond of the poor
man. He never before found three hun
dred and twenty-five men together who
were so uniformly of one mind. If you
had not that affection for the poor man,

a question Of expense, we imagine, in the
main, whether gas or electricity is used. We
are hardly prepared to say that the taxpayers
in general want serious increase in the cost
of light; though the blindest must see that
the present system of lighting the city is quite
unsatisfactory. There is too much boys work
about it. No one seems to have charge OF the
lamps. They are, in the main, vilely dirty;
the burners are allowed to become damaged;
and the glass is not often complete. Eec-
tricity in most any shape would be better than
the lamps as they now are, and would proba-
bly, cover parts of the city not now receiving
any benefit OF existing light. The yas system
if continued should be greatly improved In
some way; and certainly better care should
be taken of the lamps, so as to get the most
out of them, and to secure the lighting OF
such lamps as exist-which is not the case in
nine nights out OF ten.

Chicago Markets.

many of you might not be here" Yet"
continued he, ~ think there are times
when we could use the time of the Repub-
lie and attend to the public interests quite
as well as when We exhaust our oratory,
rhetoric and eloquence in defending the
poor man, although we are his friends"
The old fogy idea, that rs long as the
Legislative branch of the Government is in
operation, the executive should keep it
company, has given place to a more free
and easy sort Of etiquette under this Al.
ministration. The head of the War De-
partment is of to Lake Erie on a fishing
excursion, and the head of the Navy Will
probably start soon on shooting excursion,
tits little early for junketing to begin
but there is no law at present by which
any department can be detained, If it takes
a notion to go.

THE COURTS.
Suprene Court,

On Monday last large number OF opinions
" re filed in the Supreme court. The decis-
ion in the case of Mrs. Bernard Dougherty VS..
The c., B. d Q. Il. Il. Co., was reversed and
remanded to the circuit court for new trial,
the court finding some error in the one in
struction offered by the plaintiff Smith VS..
Yocein, another La Sale county case, was
affirmed. In the case of Frederick NJ. Ker,
the defaulting clerk of Preston, kean d Co.,
a new trial was denied, and the prisoner must
serve out his term of ten years.

Correspondents remarks: about onefourth
Ct the wheat seeded last fall is winter killed;
the season has not been favorable for the
growth of winter wheat, which, from present
prospects, will not make much over three
fourths of an average yield per acre. Rye
came through the winter in good condition
and is above an average in condition. Spring
wheat is making good growth, and with IA
vorable conditions until harvest will make an
average yield per acre; the area is not as large
as last season. The late seeding of oats is
some larger than last season, and from pres
ent prospects there will be nearly an average
yield per acre. Grass has not made the usual
growth, owing to the cold, wet spring, and
meadows and pastures are not up to an aver
age; the area of grass lands is about as large

the prospects of fruit; the fruit buds OF
apples, currants and cherries appear all right,
but are later than usual in putting out. The
SOIL except on drained land, is cold and com
pact, owing to the heavy and frequent rains.
With the exception of some distemper among
horses, farm animals are healthy and doing
well. Cattle and hogs are not up to an aver
age in condition, and the number is less than
last season."

our other burdens. A hacking cough, n
severe cold, or any throat and lung disease, is
very troublesome; but all these may be quick.
