WASHINGTON Letter.
FROM Our REGULAR CORRESPONDENT.
Washington, May 8, 1886.

washington, May ., 1000.
The Presidents prospective marriage
and the probable retirement of Secre-
tary Manning, have been popular topics
of comment during the week. Mr..
Cleveland is quite -committaI as to
the former subject. Very few persons
have ventured to breach the Hateful
question to him, and those who have
been so courageous, have not extracted
any satisfactory information.
am authorized, however, to say
that Mr.. Manning will be greatly dis
appointed if he is not able finally to
resume his work at the Treasury De-
partment. Since he has been able
to sit up he has sent for and conversed
with his principal officers, and is kept
informed as to the progress of affairs
The only apprehension that his friends
now have is that he will not take the
rest that is absolutely necessary to
him.
Frederick Douglass, who lectured
here during the week on his recollec-
tons of slavery, said, among other
things, that he did not approve of emf
grafton for his race. The negro could
never go any place where he could not
find white people. He thinks, by the
way, that President Cleveland is very
brave man. Said he recently in let
ter to friend, "While in Office, the
President treated me as he treated 9TH

A sub.erranean River.

ATHENS, Ga, Oct. 2g.-In oglethorpe
county the people are sgitated over q
sinking in the earth which has since
grown into an immense cave. The
farm OF james Thompson has
been cultivated for generations, having
In that time been cleared and
worn out three times. While Mr.. Thomp-
son was blowing his mules hindfoot
slipped and broke the crust of the earth,
the ground rapidly gave way for space
of about twenty feet square, and it was a
narrow escape which the plowman had
for his life. He tried to ill the hole up
with rails, but they disappeared from
sight. Finally he took a sound
ing and found that the bottom was out of
ordinary reach. BY peering into its
depth, water could be seen at the bottom,
while the rush OF an underground stream
was distinctly heard. The cave is shaped
like a cistern. It will be investigated
fully next week.

The History of Steel Pens.
ntFrntprhsu,n a.t


A Roman metal pen is said TO have been
found at Aosta, not mere stylus, but a
bronze pen slit, aud there is some evil
dence of pen or reed Of bronze nearly as
early as the invention Of printing In the
fifteenth century. A hundred years ago
some steel pens were made in
Birmingham by Mr.. Harrison for
DR.. Priestly, and some OF these
passed into the hands of Sir Joseph
Mason In his early days with Mr.. Harri-
son, but all seems to be lost. The first
pen OF metal of definite date, beyond all
question, Is one in Dutch patent book
Of lTl7 At about the same time polite
ode Of Pope refers to "steel and gold
pen," but these were evidently Injuries
only, and 1t was not until about
fifty or sixty years ago that
metallic pens became more generally
In use. 1t was about 1923 or
1924 that the great revolution came by
which pens were made by u cheaper pro-
cess the hand-screw press, which
pierced the pens from sheet steel. Pre-
viously pens had been made from steel
rolled into tube fashion, and the joint
formed the slit; but these required consid-
cradle labor TO shape them into pen form.
The use OF the serew-press belongs TO the
period of John Mitchell, Joseph elliott
and Josiah Mason, but on q careful re-
view OF the facts, 1t seems TO be clear
John Mitchell has the best claim to be
considered as the original introducer OF
press-made pens. Skinner of Sheffield
was apparently one Of the first to cheaper
steel pens, but his productions were soon
surpassed when the screw-press was in
troduced.
