Memorial Day.

Next Saturday is Memorial Day,
and we hail with satisfaction an in
creasing tendency on the part of the
people to devote the day to the services
and ceremonies for which it has been
set apart. The 30th of May should
become a national holiday like the
fourth of July. The day which COM
memorates the preservation of the
Union should be second only to the
Nations birth.
The Importance of cherishing a will
lingness to take up arms in defence of
the nation in moments of danger can
not be overestimated in a country in
which the commercial spirit is as dom
inant as ours. We have here a great
country-and we know it. We are a
grand people,-and we are fully aware
of the fact. We are becoming so i'm
pressed by the magnifcence of our
institutions and resources as to be
sometimes in danger of excess of con-
fidence. The successful manner in
which the Rebellion was pounded to
death has led to prevalent feeling
that this nation could create an army
in a few days capable of routing any
force on earth. But those who actual
~ participated in the war remember
that there was time during that peri
cd when the fate of this nation hung
trembling in the balance, and when we
were willing TO make large promises to
those who would step into the ranks
and save US.
The high character of the men who
responded to the governments call for
troops and saved the Union in its hour
of perils is evident from a glance at
the present members of the Grand
Army. The comparative youthfulness
of the members of that organization is
also one of the facts which is usually
impressed upon the mind of observers
of Memorial Day ceremonies. The
war ended twenty years ago, and yet
the veterans of that great contest are
many of them still young men. The
battles for the Union were fought
mainly by men in the first blush of
youth-the very flower and fruit of
the earth's noblest ones.
What did those 16 and 18-year-old
boys know of the great constitutional
questions involved or the vast and
perplexing moral and political prob
lens which were to be worked out ?
But their hearts beat responsive to the
martial music and the soul-stirring
sentiments which were uttered all
about them, and thrilled with a desire
to do and die, if need be, in the SER
vice of their country, they went down
into the fields of carnage and the still
more fatal camps of exposure and
disease. With their blood the nation
received second baptism of freedom.
1t was a fearful sacrifice, and though
no one will say the object was not
worthy of the price paid for it, yet it
imposes an enormous obligation upon
the people of this country to prove
themselves worthy of what has been
preserved to them.
1t was Satan who said "All that a
man hath will he give for his life !"
Our war showed that this country
possessed an abundance of men who
esteemed country and honor dearer
than life.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
WASHINGTON, D. c.,
Nav 10 1SS5

1t is now seventy-four days since
Mr.. Cleveland was made President
of the United States. During that
time he has made appointments to fill
most of the important missions abroad !;
he has removed many of the expert
enced men at the heads of the bureaus
in the executive departments of the
government he has made changes in
many positions of local Importance,
and now the smallest post-offices are
being filled with Democrats at the rate
of about one hundred day, or about
one appointment for every five min
utes of working day. Still there is
discomfort and disappointment with
the administration in all parts of the
country. Nothing short of com
plete expulsion from office of present
incumbents and the appointment of
Democrats will appease the Office
seekers, and Office brokers of the Dem
ocratic party. They are bowling for
spoils, and refuse to be comforted
without them.
The office seeking crowds seem
greatest now at the Interior and Post
Office Departments. The Secretary
of the Interior takes little rest now
and then by slipping out quietly the
back way for walk, while the office
seekers are waiting, massed in the
hall before his door. The room in
which Office seekers wait to see if they
can see Mr.. Lamar is one of the drea-
REST, most depressing places imagin-
able. 1t has no atmosphere, no light,
and few seats. The crowds walk
about, knock against one another,
stare and look wretched. When the
Secretary signifies his intention of re-
ceiving, the crowd rushes into his
room after the plan of first come first
served.
In the Post Office Department
there is also an ante-room where the
crowd waits. There are plenty OF
seats in it however, and some light
and air. On the wall hangs framed
engraving of the coat-of-arms of the
Washington family and their pedi-

away the time by reading this. 1t is
the only means of diversion in the
room.
Saturday is now called the Presi-
dents day, Mr.. Cleveland having set
| apart that day for his own use. All
visitors being excluded, the White
House wore a deserted air on Satur-
day last, and the absence of Col. La
mont, who was advised by his physi-
clans to go TO his New York home for
few days, contributed to that result.
The ushers guarded the foot of the
stairways leading to the executive Of
fees, and Mr.. Cleveland had the
most quiet day Sundays excepted)
since he took possession of the man
sion.
During the week there were four
days Of fine racing at the Washington
race course; noted English evan
gelist delivered a series of lectures in
the city; prominent Democratic Of
fetal was up before the police court,
and there have been large number

trv attended the races. No jockey
club in America, perhaps none in the

pie as gathered daily to enjoy this
popular sport. Included in the at
tendance were the vice-President of

sented. The district commissioners

Mrs. Senator Logan was on the av-
enue shopping in company with a
group of friends, when she was in
formed that her husband had been de-
feated by the election of Mr.. Tree to
the United States Senate. Without
betraying any disturbance, Mrs. Lo-
gan continued her shopping and con-
versation with her companions for
some minutes. Then she sought her
carriage and next a telegraph office,
when she asked her husband to send
a confirmation or denial of the report.
She was not kept in suspense long,
and after she ascertained there were
no grounds for fear she went to re-
ception at Mr.. Blaine's and spent the

been such that authorities regard this
