OUR. WASHINGTON LETTER.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 81, 1855

WASHINGTON, D. G., Feb. 81, 1885,.
Congress is disposed to act upon all
public bills with as much dispatch as
possible SO as to take mp the tariff and
pass the best tariff bill possible before
either convention meets. Legislation for
public buildings is receiving moro atten-
tion than at any time before, and this
will put money in circulation in all sec.
tions Of the country and please the work.
ingmen. So far all of the many bills of
that character that have come up for
action, have passed in the form reported
By the committee, but very little opposi-
ton being made to any of them. The
total amount appropriated in one day for
buildings was about s1.50O,oOo. The
thing above all others that is troubling
Members the most just now, is the sitting
of Congress up TO the time of the meet.
ing of the National Conventions. This
being long session the adjournment
according TO custom would not be until
August, but the meeting Of the Demo.
cratic Convention in June and. the Re-
publican Convention shortly afterwards,
makes the members impatient to get
away to engage in the thickest of the
fray. And now that the day Of meeting
has been fixed, the Ways and Means
Committee will press to early action the
tariff bill which is ready for report to
the committee, and this will afford good
plank for the platform. The almost
universal opinion here is that Cleveland
will be the nominee, and the selection Of
st. Louis is accepted as finally settling
the question. Senator Vest, who is q
warm friend of the President, made o
most telling speech before the National
Committee, and the iorcibleness of his
speech and his close relations to the
Executive are conceded to have inau:
enced the committee in deciding on St.
Louis. All of the ST. Louis delegation
in Congress, except Representative Burns,
are strong Cleveland men, and say that
st. Louis viii be solid for the Presidents
denomination.
The Government Printing is being in
yestigated, but the developments 80 far
are favorable to the administration Of the
Office than otherwise. Government
Printer Benedict says that he has saved
S150, 900 BY the reduction of the labor
roll !; $4,000 per annum by a change in
the system Of paying the employees; a
saving Of many thousands Of dollars in
obtaining the discount allowed in the pur-
chaseof type; and still further saving
ia reducing the waste Of paper. Tie in
vestigation is still in progress, but as yet
it can not be predicted what the final
showing and comparison with previous
administrations of the Office will be.
Although the House Committee has
reported favorably the bill admitting
Dakota, Montana, Washington Territory
aud New Mexico to Statehood, it is not
expected that they will be admitted this
Congress While Republicans would
control some of the pew States, still upon
the whole the Democrats would gain
more than the Republicans and obtain
control Of the Senate, and hence the
Republicans will oppose the admission.
The four go together and the failure of
one means the defeat of all. II.

Mr.. Benjamin Keith, ofTallahassee,
now in St Louis, states tbata company of
capitalists is being formed to drain Oke-
echobee, the great Florida peninsula lake.
Mr. Keith says: "The plan is to run three
canals, one on the west and two on the
north of the lake, which will carry off
probably three. .fourths of the water now
spread over the face OF the country and
render available al least 100000 acres of
land now utterly worthless. The canals
will drain into the lake, which is cheaper
and easier than making them drain into
the sea, and il experiment proves a
SUCCESS the whole face of the country will
be altered and the reed and mangrove
swamps replaced by the finest rice fields
in the world. /"
