=" You needn't be surprised at MacVeaghs
attack upon the President" observed gen
tleman to CRITIC man to-day.
THE CRITIC wanted to know why.
Because" answered the gentleman,
MacVeagh has been brooding over the
difference he had with the President for n
long time. He told me all this matter at
Chicago moro than year ago, and that he
had 1t in for the President, and would some
day let the people know
'Whnt He Thought OF Arthur"
"Then he spoke in cold blood yesterday"
Gold blood / should say so, for two
reasons Firstly, he has often expressed
his disgust at the President, and secondly
he couldn't we'll speak in any other way,
for he Is a cold-blooded man. Did you see
how he acted on the witness.chair ycstor-
day?"
The Critic man did not see Mr.. Mac
Veagh on the witness-chair.

GENERAL JOHN NEWTON.
The Interest the New chief of En-
gineers Takes in This city.

General John Newton, whose military
record and wonderful engineering works
have given him worldwide reputation,
assumed his duties yesterday morning as
Chief Of Engineers of the Army. General
Newton is man of about sixty years of
age, well.built and physically powerful,
aud with large and intellectual head aud
full beard that is BEGINNING to be tinged
with white, which ACIDS to the impressive
ness of his appearance. His countenance
indicates man of firmness and decision,
quick perception and ability, and his fit
ness for the high position of Chief of Engi-
neers Is unquestioned.
Tho General said to CRITIC reporter
yesterday that he was too new in his posi-
tion to wish to be quoted concerning any
Of the extensive works that will be under
his control, and he had not had much OPP
portunity for studying the local operations,
although he had been somewhat familiar
with Washington city all through its transit
tion state, and had come to regard 1t as the
most beautiful and attractive city in the
country. He admired its natural advant-
ages, its wonders Of engineering, paving
and architecture, and would take great
deal of interest in the important works of
filling the flats, improving the channel and
increasing the water supply.
He regarded the filling of the flats as
very important to the welfare of the city,
and had the utmost confidence in Colonel
Hams and his ability to accomplish the i'm
provements in the most successful manner.
He would do what lay in his power to have
the work pushed to completion and to i'm
prove the city and tho harbor aud the
river.
General Newton will not bring his en-
tire family to Washington until autumn,
as some of his children are attending
school or college in New York. After that
time they will reside In this city,

E1e AWkct sleep.
XhQn.tife day is done and the shadows fall
Over the earth like dusky pail,
Then from the mystic, the silent deep
Rises the beautiful Angel Sleep.
Der field and forest he spreads his wings
Where the cricket chirps and the wood bird
SINCE,
And the murmur OF voices dies away,
Still by the Angel calm and gray.
Human passions that surge and sw0ll
Are silenGed under the mystic spell,
And tired hearts that are used TO weep
Yield TO tho power OF the Angel Sleep.
Soft he broods till tho morning gray,
Then as noiselossly glldes away,
And the spell Is lifted and hearts again
Take up their burden OF care and pain.
We call him DEATH IT'S the Angel Sleep
That comes at last from the silent deep,
And smooths forever tho brow OF care,
And Gains the fever OF passion there.
So We sleep and rest, till the morning gray
Breaks once more OF an endless day,
And into the mystic, tho unknown deep,
Flies forever the Angel Sleep.
