WASHINGTON LETTER.
lFrom Our Regular Correspondent
WASHINGTON, DC,

June OH, looo.
If the new officials connected with
the Pension Office desire to get their
hands in upon the subject of invesu
cations, l would recommend as a
good field for business the highly
moral City of Brotherly Love, Phila-
delphia, where the pension agent IS
said to have been paying pensions TO
numerous parties who have beendde7t
funct fer 10! these many years, to
say nothing OF small regiment OF
widows who have also been the recip-
tents of Uncle Sans bounty, after
they had thriftily provided them
selves with husbands.
The civilities that are due to the
people from their public servants,
should prompt the latter to furnish
seats in the corridors of the several
departments fer the accommodation
and comfort of their employers, the
people. To have men AID women
waiting hour after hour with no place
to rest their weary limbs, after their
tramping incursions through our in
t%erminable thoroughfares, is some
thing not to be pIacidly borne. II
would seem that it would be entirely
feasible to have a waiting room fur
nished with proper seating facilities
for the use of the great number. o

The Columbus Times hits the nail

long and exciting campaign last year,
followed by the spring municipal
elections, the people require rest from

known candidates, in this day of fast

ened in six weeks as they in as
many months. Let us give the Re

sweep the State. This can be done
and if the Democrats act wisely WI

Gov. Warren, of Wyoming, says
that woman suffrage has not lowered
the character of public officials in
that Territory. On the contrary, the
women consider much more careful
ly than men the character of the IAN
didates, and both political parties
have found themselves obliged to
nominate their best men in order to
obtain the support of the women.
GAS a business man, as a city, coun-
ty and a Territorial officer, and now
as Governor of Wyoming Territory"
he adds, 81 have seen much of the
workings of woman suffrage, but 1
have yet to hear of the first case of
domestic discord growing out of it.
Our women nearly all vote, and since
in Wyoming, as elsewhere the ma
jority Of women are good and not
bad, the result is good and not evil"
Judge William Archer Cooke, a ma
tive of Virginia, in a recent charge to

"In ancient times, among the favor

sions. The book of the law was cor
tanned therein. It was called the Ark
of the Covenant. We have a box, il
not measured by cubits, yet of bound.
airy dimensions and precious in every
sense. 1t is the ballot box. It is the
ark of the American covenant; The
law is in it and the fate of the nation;
the virtue, the moral and social
rights of a free people, the physical
prosperity and Christian existence
of the American people as a nation,
rests upon its purity und preserva
ton. Like the ancient Ark Of the
Covenant, it should be touched oaly
with pure hands. Therein is our ma.
tional grandeur and happiness, as
well as our perennial prosperity, in
our social, individual and national
relation to all we hold dear, and
which, as a free and ever favored lib
erty-loving nation, and through the
wise, prudent, just and honest use Of
which we u only preserve and pro
tect that liberty which will continue
to guarantee unto us such prosperity

All Bank Of England notes are printed
in the bank Itself. Elk printing presses
are in constant operation. the same machine
printing first the particulars Of value, sig
nature, and then the number OF the note
in consecutive order. The paper used is OF
very peculiar texture, being at once thin,
tough and crisp; and the combination OF
these qualities, together with the peculiar
tiles Of the watermarll. which IS distributed
over the whole surface Of the paper, forms
one Of the principal guarantees against i'm

structed as 10 register each note printed, SO
that the machine itself indicates automati-
caliy how many notes have passed through
it. The average production Of notes is
fifty thousand in day, and about the same
number are presented in the same time for
payment.
No note is ever issued 8 second time.
