The Balmy Spring.

The spring of 1884 has not as yet shown up
with that balmy temperature which poet:
love to rave about and which all persons love
to greet. Cages with their singing birds are
still kept within doors, and the trees, al
though budding, present sickly appearance
Tho lawn in the parks are damp and soggy
and the walks soft aud muddy.
Yesterday was moro like November than
spring day, with It's heavy rainfalls. chilly
atmosphere, and leadcn-hued skies. The
wind blew great guns last night and kept up
a continuous bombardment in the way OF
window rattliDg and chimney shaking. The
public have borne with phiosophic fortitude
the rough tempests of an unusually long
period, and have at last arrived at the con.
clusion that it is time for the weather to
become settled.

He was Maine schoolmaster, and had
strayed away from a beYy of sightseers, and
by some mschance had drifted into the
reporters gallery Of tho senate. He Caught
on to" Virginia correspondent, dyed-in-
tho-wool democrat, who hates beans and
thinks brown sugar the most perfect sacchs-
rine base for matutinal cocktail. Tho man
from the northeastern corner of the re-

Senator Butler, of South Carolina, the man
who engineered the Hamburg massacre ?"
Tho man from the Old Dominion gazed down
upon the hoor. The senator from Massachu-
sets had been called to the chair, and was
beaming pleasantly upon tho assembled wis
dom. Mr. Edmunds was sitting upon one of
the lounges in the rear of the chamber.
That's him-that man with the bald head
and very gray beard" said the Virginian, as
he pointed his index finger straight at tho

said, II might hev known it; there's murder

The trouble with the men at work on the
new reservoir does not seem to be of as serious
a nature as was at first reported, Mr.. Gea,
son, the contractor, stated to REPUBLICAN
reporter last night that the work was not at
all interrupted, not more than twenty.fv
men having left. Yesterday there were
about 200 men at work, and he is confident Of
being able to employ $50 more. AS to bring
they were worthless, and he would moi
think of employing them. All the men al
present employed seem to be satisfied, and
as they are at liberty to purchase their pro
visions wherever they choose, they can have nc
cause for complaining of the prices charged
by the commissary.
