The sos,ofice Appropriation Bill.

WASHINGTON, d. c., April lS.-At s
O'Clock the Senate concluded considera-
tion of the Postotiice appropriation bill
and passed it without deviation from
the amendments proposed by the Senate
Committee on Appropriations, except to
add $4,000 to the appropriation for
river mail service.

Thus we have seen the claims of Los
Angeles as sanitarium-especially as a
resort for asthmatic and consumptive
people-temporarily exploded. With
foods in the Los Angeles river sweeping
away houses by the score, and of such
magnitude that. careering down Macy
and Also streets tho waters actually
ran down the southside- of Alameda
street like millrace for an hour and
more, We shall find it very bard to per-
suade visitors from the East that, in the
season Of lS76.77, the total rainfall for
Los Angeles county was only 5s4 inches.
Yet the record is there. 1t is also very
difficult to make most Californians, even,
understand that the average rainfall of
Los Angeles county, over period of ten
years, is about the same as that of the
Sacramento valley. Now that Los An
geles is the center of the most marked
increase in population and improvement,
in ratio ut least, on the American cont.
nent, these facts will be moro generally
known.

WE are now being treated to the un.
certain glories Of the April days, and
the return Of the genial weather for
which Los Angeles is famous oil over
this continent and over much Of the
world besides is heartily welcomed by
our people. While we may have one
more storm, 1t is exceedingly doubtful,
indeed, whether we shall have even that,
Prophet Potts to the contrary and not
withstanding. Our vaunt about blue
skies. cloudless empyrean and dry,
invigorating climate, has been put some
what to the blush this year. Those who
came to Los Angeles to spend a dry
winter have been tempted to exclaim,
'sGood Lord, how this world is given to
lying" Beguiled hore by figures of n
rainfall which has ranged between ten
and twelve inches, for some years past,
they have struck wetness by tho vertical
yard measure, so to speak. In the city
proper we have had, according to Mr..
Ducommun's gauge, within fraction Of
forty three inches. In the Asuza they
have had fifty-five inches. In other por-
tions Of the foothills and the mount
aims Of Los Angeles county they have
had rainfall which makes one doubt
whether ono is living in Panama or Ore
gen. There has been nothing like it in
the memory of the Oldest inhabitant,

FROM WASHINGTON.
Especial Correspondence Of the Alexandria Gazette. !
WASHINGTON ID q Dec | 1894


WASHINGTON. D. c.. Dec. l. 1884
On Saturday last Mr. DUNCAN, one of the
lessees of the Alexandria Canal, had long
interview with the Secretary of War in ref
erence to the location of the proposed free
bridge across the Potomac ut Georgetown,
and received from him paper declining 10
accept the piers of the canal aqueduct as the
site of the proposed bridge on the title that
was proposed TO be given for them. There
were FIVE objections to that title, four of
which we're removed, but the fifth remains,
and the proposed title will not be accepted
until that one also be removed. That one
relates to the pier at the northern abutment
of the aqueduct. Mr.. DUNCAN and his law
yers are still engaged in trying to find the
papers that will remove the remaining OBJ
lection, and it is still thought that the
bridge, when built, will be constructed upon
the piers of the aqueduct, as that is decid-
eddy the most available point. 1t is under
stood that among the strongest opponents
of the aqueduct site for the bridge is the
Chesapeake and Ohio Canal Comp also
that that company has commenced suit
against the Government for the use of its
property at the Great Falls during the civil
war, and is taking steps to sue the Alexan.
dria Canal Company for bridging its canal
ut Georgetown.
There has been great deal of newspaper
talk about the appointment of Mr.. J. r.
Tucker as the guardian of the children of
tho late President Garfield. The facts OF
the case are that Mr.. Tucker is the guardian
only 50 far as relates to lot or two at
Arlington Park, between Alexandra and
Washington, which the late President, when
. member OF the House, and associated with
the late Jerry Black. received as counsel
fee in case concerning that tract of land.
Mrs. Garfield did not pay much attention
10 the lots, but as the Black heirs want to

1T IS to be regretted that the Legislature
has adjourned without impcaching Mr.. F.

eral, not only for the reason that the failure
to do 90 will be availed of by him as a
license to continue his illegal levies upon
the States funds, but because it is under

The DEMOCRATS of Pennsylvania belong
to that anomalous class, known as demo-
cratic protectionists. The result is that at
the recent election in their State the repub.
leans defeated them by eighty thousand
majority. People may be humbugged while
their eyes are shut, but not when they are
open. But the sham of protectionists in the
disguise Of democrats is too transparent to
deceive even blind men
