TOPICS OF THE DAY.

Washington abounds in fine carriages
and horses, says Chicago MaH cor
respondent, yet two thirds of the House
of Representatives half the Senate and
nearly all the Supreme Court pa
tronize the street cars. Senator Ed
munds loves a seat at the front of the
car, where he may turn his back on
everybody and look out of the window.
On cold days he carries q heavy blanket
with him, which he spreads over his
legs. His ride is long one from the
Capitol to the outer end of Massachu-
sets avenue, II was crowded out by
the excess Of civilization down at
Thomas Circle" he says, "and have
gone clear out under the shade of the
woods at Kalorama." The Southern
men use the cars without exception,
unless 1t be Butler. He hates the
"madding crowd" and loves to roll
home in a coupe. Hackmen find him
good customer. Sabin of Minnesota
usually keeps him company and they
chip in on fares. Philctus Sawyer Of
Wisconsin, one of the richest and sim
plest men in the Senate, likes the cars.
He usually has some guest with him
for dinner, and has q habit of talking
coDtldentially in his hat so that he shah
not be overheard He is shrewd old
fellow, and as kind hearted as a mother.

"After the battle Of Bull Run" said
Mr.. Roscwater of the Omaha Bee the
other day TO "Carp" of the Cleveland
Leader, II came to Washington and
entered the telegraph Office of the War
Department under Generals Stager and
Eckert. The telegraph Office was in
the library of the Department. Gen
eral Eckert at that time looked very
much like Heenan, the prize fighter.
| He was q good story teller, and he and
Lincoln told many good stories there.
| Lincoln used to come in every morning
to read the dispatches, and during the
exciting times he would spend hours in
the office. The night of the battle of
| fredericksburg he stayed all night.
During this battle the Army of the Po
tomac was largely commanded by the
War Department. Burnside was in
command and the order for the attack
was given by Stanton and Lincoln from
the War Office. The attack began on
Sunday morning about o'clock, and
President Lincoln came into the office
in his slippers. He remained all day
and far into the night, Secretary Stan
ton was also present. At noon Stanton
sent an orderly with an e-pitcher out
for beer, and Lincoln, Stanton, Captain
Fox, then Assistant Secretary OF the
Navy, and myself lunched on beer
and crackers, All this time dis.
patches were being constantly
received, and President Lincoln die
tated encouraging replies without
writing them, standing behind me as
he did so. AS the day went on the re,
ports grew discouraging, and at night
the defeat was finally announced.

THE HARD OLD MAN.

"A hard old man. the townsfolk said.
Yes, a hard old man Is he;''
And sighed for the doleful life he led
In his lonely house by the sea.
A hard old man, with searching eye
And flowing beard of snow;
With never kind word in reply
TO the greeting of high or low.
With never word or smile for any,
lie lived 10 himself as miser may;
And gave of his cheer not even penny,
To enrich the world from day TO day.
one night gallant barque, ,orm-driyen,
In winters cold and gloom,
Her stout old timbers rent and rlyen,
Came onward 10 her doom
Then up he rose, that hard old man.
With iron face and form;
And launched his boat upon the wave
In all that binding storm.
And through the midnight, and the roar
or breakers ON the sand
He rescued all that drowning crew,
And brought them safe TO land.
"'Twas a noble deed aud nobly done,n
'Tis thus the townsfolk say;
And the hard old man OF yesterday
Is the "brave old man OF to-day.

WASHINGTON THE PLACE.

The New York WORTH recently advo.
Gated the establishment in that city Of
a permanent exposition The New
Orleans Times. Democrat, commenting
on this scheme, sees some points in
favor of the project, but also suggests
various conclusive reasons why per-
manent exposition in New York cannot
be made popular success.
1t says to begin with that New York
is the most crowded city in the coun-
try, has the least available room and the
smallest area of parks. Public opinion
would never allow the use of Central
Park for the purpose indicated, and all
other locations which are available for
that purpose are too remote from the
centre of population. II is likely,
moreover, that many New Workers
would object to the proposed cXposi-
tion because ii would still further
crowd the city and increase the cost
of living, which is already at n
very robust figure. Again, the Times
U600c}a recalls the fact that when
similar proposition was made to hold
World's fair in New York few years
ago 1t fell perfectly Hat and the city
practically said that it was not in favor
of such a plan. These remarks are
commended to the attention of our
esteemed metropolitan contemporary,
as is also the other patent and potent
fact that the place of places for the es.
iablishment of permanent exposition
in this country is right here at the Ma.
iional Capital.

EDiToR CRITIC: Your editorial on the
subject of proper celebration at Washing
ton ON the occasion Of the centennial ami
versary OF the adoption of the Constitution
of the United States was timely aud CON-
prehensive. That Is a national aud inter-
State occasion which Congress and the
State governments should take steps at once
to initiate proceedings for upon an elaborate
scale. 1t seems to me that Senator Ingalls,,
the distinguished Senator from Kansas,
possesses in a marked degree the proper at
tributes to lead of in this project In the
Senate. The occasion marks too Important
an epoch In the history Of the world to be ne
elected. The Tooth anniversary Of the adop-
ton Of Constitutional liberty In America, the
effect Of which has permeated throughout
the civilized world, should be commemo-
rated at the Capital Of the Republic of co.

"'Ostlcr joe"
EDrIeR CRITto. Your reporter was In
error last Saturday In saying that Jedge
Waxem from Wayback left the room at
Secretary Whitney's the other evening be-
cause Of the indelicacy of the poem "'Ostler
joe" which Mrs. Brown Potter read. lie
did not leave, nor did he blush. On the
contrary, he enjoyed Mrs. Potter's excellent
defamation, as did many Others, and did
not think that there was anything so very
awful about 1t. did not. The talk about
the effect OF the poem upon the audience
has been greatly exaggerated. There were
some ladies there who we're greatly shocked,
or pretended to be. But have seen these
same ladies at the theatre when "Camille"
was being played. saw them at Albaughs
when Modieska played "Odette;' have
seen them In the audience when French
opera has been on, and have seen them
well up to the front on nights which were
decidedly bald-head nights. And "'Ostler
Joo' is not half as prurient or suggestive as
any of the performances mentioned.

MIR. EvARTs STILL RETICENr.

The country has been long and pa
tiently waiting for some expression of
opinion from Senator Evarts on the
silver question, and the chances are
that it will have to wait good while
longer.
A man who can stand the pressure Of
ninety-three savings banks, represent
ing S437, 900, 900 of trust funds and
over eleven hundred thousand deposit
ors, that waited upon him Saturday
with memorial praying for the re.
peal of the Bland act, without so much
as iptimating to the memorialists
whether he was in favor of repeal or
not, may be considered wholly impreg-
nablc to assault. There is no getting
inside of man with such an invinciblc
self consciousness as that. 1t would
take more than the terrors of the Span
ish Inquisition to eXtort confession or
recantation from a man 50 stolidly for
tilted.
1t was expected of course that by
thus moving upon the Senator in force,
the New York bankers and financicrs
would be able TO cXtort from him at
least some faint suggestion of an opin
ion. They conferred with him for
over on hour, piled him with argu
ments, essayed all manner of devices
but nothing was forthcoming, excepting
the Senator's gracious consent to pre-,
sent the memorial as requested, and
The delegation retired as they had ap,
preached, none the wiser for their visit
1T is of 10 public Importance what

LAST SATURDAY was the anniversary
Of the day on which General Grant be.
gan to write his memoirs, and the pub.
fishers of that work sent TO Mrs. Grant
check for 5000, 900, that being her
share of the money collected on the
sales of the first volume There will
be still more coming to her from the
proceeds of the first volume. and it is
expected that she will realize about
$500, 900 from the two. This is more
money than was ever realized from any
single work. 1t was fortunate thing,
not only for his family, but for the
world at large, that General Grant, who
had lost his all through the willy Ferdi-
nand Ward, decided to write his me
moirs that he might leave something
behind for his wife and children.

heaviest bidders at the sale, buying five
horses, which cost them so, 1000. About
as remarkable MS the sale itself was the
fact that the Dryers were able to buy
SO heavily. Only few years ago they
were butcher boys in Brooklyn. They
made their appearance on the turf

THERE is more or less truth in what
