WASHINGTON NOTES.

The estimated reduction of the
public debt for December is S12,-
10000; for the year, $110,000,000.
The postmaster-general is prepar-
ing q bill to exclude newspapers pub
fishing lottery advertisements from
the pound rate.
The Fitz John Porter bill, now
ready to report, will probably be one
of the first bills to pass the house.
1t will probably pass the senate also,
especially as Logan does not intend
to fight it.
The total receipts from internal
revenue for the first six months of
the fiscal year ended Monday were
SCI, 12G, POI ; receipts for December,
$3.50, 706. The estimate made by
the commissioner of intenal revenue
for the fiscal year ending June 30,
1884, was S120, 900, 900 and the re-
ceipts fol- the first six months seem
to confirm the accuracy of his judg-
ment.
a special says: A representative
of Gov. Butler of Massachusetts call
ed at the department of justice to-
day and, it is understood, urged an
early decision upon the governor S
clam to 81, 900, 600 for damages to
the Great Falls water-power, conse-
quent upon the construction of an
improved water reservoir by the Dis
trict of Columbia. The decision of
the department will, it is said, be
adverse to his claim.
The house committee on public
lands expect TO report number OF
bills declaring forfeited certain rail
road land grants. The companies
most interested are those in the
northwest and south, and the amount
of land involved is reported by chair
man Cobb to be between 50,000,0 200
and 100, 100000 acres. The Texa,
Pacific land grant, it is thought, will
be reported as forfeited, and thi
grant alone involves 14,000,00'

sion; the class numbers eighteen men,
bers. A large number of prominent
members of the church were mentioned
as having passed away during the year.
This portion of the report evidently
awoke tender reeollections in the pastor,
who spoke with some sadness of his feel
ing that the old members were being
removed and others were not coming
in TO take their places. Mr.. Beecher's
remarks have been Inexperienced and
unsupported by the secular press,
church with crowded congregations at
every service, membership of $500,
and an average Sunday school attendance
not far from 1000, cannot be justly said
to be in a dying condition.
In the last issue of the EGpress a
sad moral is drawn from this terrible
decline. Camp says that some pa
pers have charitably attributed it to
Beechers old age, but after intimat-
ing that if he had always preached
just as he Camp thinks he ought
to, the laws of nature would be sus-
pended in his case, he proceeds to
give the true reason for the decline,
viz: that Beecher's views and meth
DDS have not all been of the Erpress
and Standard, regulation pattern.

mystical speculations, % greedy for
the applause of men, ''gloomy con-
dition of his church, "a plain warn
ing" etc., etc.
If instead of an earnest and effect
i've work for humanity, in the spirit
of the Master, Beecher had rigidly
adhered to absolete dogmas with in
tolerant denunciation of all who hon.
estly differed with him, he. would
doubtless be more acceptable to the
Pope of Orleans. But the real troub-
lie with brother Camp is that he has
never forgiven Beecher because he
was not annihilated by Tilton and
his crew; and since that time he has
never lost an opportunity for a fling
at both Plymouth church and its pas
tor, as the columns of the Express
will bear witness "Then this (Da-
vid) was preferred above the presi-
dents and princes, because an excel

ger is admitted, but compromising
increase of strength in states which
have been republican on sectional
issues is counted on. The democrats
know their course in this matter will
be very carefully watched. The prob
lem is an interesting one, and its
presence in the coming campaign will
infuse an element of uncertainty as
to the result, which will tend to make
the struggle very exciting.

raphy is that of Representative Rose

Friday was the field day when two
thousand hungry children were'shd by

festivities which were held at the

but the same scenes were witnessed
at all club dinners. AT the appointed
hour the urchins began to present
their tickets to the man at the door
and creep timidly into the dining hall
as if they were crawling under cir
Gus tent. There were children of all
sizes, all ages, all styles ofprettiness
and ugliness. There were children
on crutches, children club footed,
and children otherwise deformed.
Children dressed in every variety of
garment, but all very poor. They
were brought in from the narrow al
legs, and squalid quarters of the city,
and the good cheer they enjoyed that
day had never before been included
in their range of possibilities. After
dinner they were marched up stairs
to the ball room where three heavily
laden Christmas trees. To lively
music by the Marine Band. the chill
dren received their presents. Upon
leaving the hall each child was given
car ticket and a tin horn. Each
horn was thoroughly tested as it was
taken from the big box making the
noise deafening. Nellie Arthur, the
presidents young daughter, had been
assigned prominent part in the pro-
gramme, and the president entered
the hall during the festivities and
received an ovation.

PLYMOUTH CHURCH.
FOR THE MONITOR.

AS it has been generally reported
by the press that Plymouth church
was in dying condition, the follow
ing authoritative statement from the
Christian Union may not be out of
place:
The annual meeting of Plymouth church
of Brooklyn, Rev. Henry Ward Beecher,
pastor, was held last week. The report
showed a total membership of 3, 548 mem
bers; removals by death and dismission,
sixty; additions by letter and on profess
sion, siXty-seven; net gain, seven. The
attendance in the three Sunday-schools
of the church ranged from Jig TO 2,3I5.
The church has enjoyed unbroken harmo-
ny during the year, and the congrega-
tions fill the house, some being always
turned away, except in Indictment wealth
err, both morning and evening, because
unable to get in. A Chinese mission
work has been commenced during the

A THIRD PARTY.

Every day the prospects of the for
nation of new party become more
and more apparent to the careful OBJ
server. The drift of public senti-
ment is toward such an undertaking.
For over twenty years the republican
party has been in control. and what
do we find at the present time? Fac
tories closing all over the country,
business stagnant and a financial
crisis imminent. Nor is the record
of the democracy one whit better.
The plain truth is that the political
leaders of both parties have been so
closely pursuing schemes of self in
terest that they have entirely neglect
ed the wants of the great mass Of the
people of this country. The success
of party. e., the seizure of spoils
has been their chief aim; and once
in power, in state OF national cleo
tons, they have not only kept up the
former standard of taxation, but
have managed to gradually increase
it.
The expense of the national gov
eminent are out of all proportion to
the state of the country. Fifty mil
lions of dollars are annually wasted
on an army of useless officials. In
state government the same reckless
extravaganza prevails, and even mu-
nicipalities-as we know here in Bos-
ton-are taxed far beyond what they
should be.
Whether protection protects, or
whether free trade is the best method
to benefit the people, is question
for further reference. The time has
come to call halt in this wasting of
the peoples money, and only the for
nation of a third party, with ceremo-
ny as its strongest plank, can effect
this object. The question of tariff,
of prohibition, of unlimited currency
should be only a secondary issue.
That a political party based on a
system of thorough economy would
benefit the workman, who after all, is
the most interested, needs no advoca-
cy; the fact is too patent. With a
saving of at least 5000, 900, 900 every
year in national, state and municipal
administrations in the United States,
there would be much better oppor-
tunity for the working classes to raise
out of the rut of hard work and moth
ing saved, and "to his complexion
of a third party Unjust we come al
last. Boston Post.

MI. Richard A. Proctor does not
think that the abnormal sunsets in
various parts Of the world can be
reasonably attributed to the volcanic
eruptions near the Sunda Straits.
His objections are that the theory re-
qunres, first. that much m2re volcan-
lie dust and vapor should have been
expelled in vrder to spread SO widely
than was apparently thrown into the
upper atmosphere and, secondly,
that to reach Trinidad, Panama, and
Yokohama, the expelled matter
should have travelled from siXty-fv1
to seventy-five miles an hour. where
as it went in leisurely fashion to Cey-
lon and India. He considers the
theory of volcanic dust untenable,
but has no better hypothesis to pro-
pose. Professor Piazzi Smith as
c;ibes the phenomena to meteoric
dust, thereby confirming the judg-
ment of prominent American scien-
fists. Baron Nordenskiold, during
the voyage of the Vega, found traces
of what he termed cosmic dust under
conditions apparently precluding the
ASSUMPTION that if was of terrestrial
origin; and during his recent explo-
rations in Greenland he obtained cor.
roborative evidence. The settling oil
coarser grains of meteoric dust upoI
ice-foes in mid-ocean implies the oc
casional presence of finer particles il
the upper atmosphere where the,
have been detached from meteori
bodies by friction. If the world hap
pened to be spinning through me
teoric belt of space, the dust woult
be sprinkled over the atmospheric en-
velope and amy phenomena of ligh
: caused by its presence would be wit
: messed in all countries. This expla
nation certainly does not make an
larger demand upon human credulit
than the volcanic dust theory, and
q is receiving the sanction of high SC
: tntific authority.

ESPECIAL JoRREsPoNDENcE OF THE MONITOR.

Washington, December 81.
The holiday season is a dull one
politically. Still there has been no
dearth of political gossip and criti-
cism; Speaker Carlisle's committee
appointments having furnished top
ic that is not yet exhausted. There
is no committee in which the people
do not have some interest, and, of
course, the personel have been ana
lyzed with reference to the action the
committees may be expected to take
in the legislation committed to their
charge. The ways and means COM
mittee is criticised and praised; that
on banking and currency has also its
advocates and detractors. This com
mittee is in favor because a certain
man is at the head of it and various
others are denounced because certain
men who ought to be at the heads of
them are not. Notwithstanding there
are individual cases of hardship and
dissatisfaction, the verdict of the
non-partisan element of the country
is, that Mr.. Carlisle has done we'll
under his enormous responsibility.
Nor has there been complete stag
macy in political work during the
week. Several of the new commit
tees have held meetings at the Capt.
toll and mapped out plans for future
procedure. Mr.. Randall called a
meeting of the appropriation commit
was announced. When it met last
Wednesday and selected three bills
for the first action of congress, the
first real business of the session was
begun. Few people, aside from the
small number whose business it is to
handle the material, know how great
is the accumulation of work awaiting
congress nor how steadily the guam
tity is increasing. Measures propos-
ing legislation introduced during the
first month of this congress are six
hundred per cent greater than those
introduced during the first month of
the preceding congress. One house
