You owe it to yourself to remain

write that I will consider your coming
to Lexington as conclusive, and you
must then take the responsibility of all
that might ensue. You ought to con-
troll yourself and make yourself COM
fortable-restore your health and not
destroy yourself, Do not make it i'm
possible for me to do what is best.
Yours, William G. P. Breckenridge"

FROM WASHINGTON.
{ Correspondence of the Alexandria Gazette. ]
WASHINGTON, Mar. 16, 1894.

II is said at the Postoffice Department
that democrat will be appointed
postmaster at Alexandria at an early
day, possibly next week, and that the
appointee will probably be Mr.. John A.
Marshall, as be is recommended for the
Place by Representative Meredith OF
that district, who, it is reported there,
says he will make the fight of his life
life for him, and as the department Is
always disposed to crafty Congress
men in such matters, unless there De
charges against their favorites, which,
it is understood, is not the case IN the
one referred to.
Congressman Meredith went the
rounds of the departments this morn
ing with Mr.. Hugh Patton of Orange
county. trying TO get the latter place,
but was unsuccessful. He also, at the
request OF the Cleveland, Stevenson,
Meredith Club of Alexandria county,
went to the office ofthe District Attor-
ncy in behalf of c. 4. kidwell, mem
Der of that club, who has been SEN
fenced to ten months imprisonment III
this CITY, on the charge of policy play
ing, VIII h charge, they say, was not
properly sustained. They also say he
is sick.
The House committee on military affairs
finished the military appropriation bill to-
day. 1t carries q total appropriation of SO
577. 2S4 GS for the next fiscal year, AS against
sol, DOS $50 for last year.
The Secretary of the Interior to-day APP
pointed Edward C. Vincent of StauntOn. Va,
supe -inteHdent of irrigation for the Navajo
Indian reservation, at a salary OF S2,ooo per
annum.
The House committee on the judiciary has
ordered an adverse report on the bill providing
for the election of delegate TO represent the
District of Columbia in Congress
1t is reported at the District building to day
that the Aqueduct bridge at Georgetown is
in an exceedingly dangerous condition, and
that should there be the usual spring flood, OF
which owing TO the mild winter, there is
hardly any danger, it would probably be car
ried away. One of its piers is propped up
temporarily with timber hut is in such con-
ditiou that many fear it may slide away from
its base at any time.
Well informed Georgia politicians now here
say that Secretary Hoke Smith will be the

The impression at the Capitol is that the
President will sign the scigniorage bill, but

EULoGIEs ON GEN. JUBAL A. EARLY.
The Confederate Veterans Association
of Washington met last night, President
r. w. Hunter in the chair. Capt.
Byrd Lewis presented resolutions of
sorrow and coincidence on the death Of
Jubal A. Early, and eulogies were de-
livered by Gen, John B. Gordon, Major
John w. Daniel and others.
Senator Daniel, who served on Gen.
Early's staff, spoke feelingly of the life
and Services of the deceased. There
was large audience of both sexes.
After the eulogies, Col. Bachelor, the
historian of the battle of Gettysburg,
gave graphic description of the first
DAVIS fight from maps made by him.
Meantime the ladies of the Southern
Relief Society were busy at another
meeting in an adjoining room fixing up
the details of the charity ball, to be
given on the 2Sth instant at the Ma
tional Rifles Armory, at which it is as
sured there will be very large attend
ance for this praiseworthy object.

THE SUNDRY CIVIL BILL.-The con-
sideration of the sundry civil bill was
completed in the House yesterday, ex-
cepting those portions passed over dur
ing the reading Of the bill. The princi-
pal fight was made by Mr.. Enloe, of
Tennessee, to abolish coast and geodetic
surveys, and transfer the former to the
Navy and the latter to Interior Depart
ment. His amendment looking to this
transfer was ruled out on point of
order. Mr.. Enloe then modified his
amendment so as to authorize an inyes-
tigation By the joint committee on ex-
penditures in the executive departments
of the work of that bureau, and the
ACCESSIBILITY of the transfer, giving the
committee instructions to report a bill
for this purpose. No action was had on
the amendment.

As STATED in yesterdays GAZETTE,
the seigniorage bill, that is, the bill to
coin vacuum, as Mr.. Hewitt termed
it, and properly, as the market value
of the silver bullion now in the treas
ury is really not sufficient to redeem
the paper money already printed, has
passed the Senate As it had previously
passed the House, all it now needs TO
he law is the Presidents signature,
which, its friends say, it will receive,
though he is by no means enamored of
its provisions. But whether that be
so or not will make no difference, for
its fate will have as little effect upon
the business Of the country as was pro-
duced by the passage of the bill to re-
peal the silver purchasing act. The
lack or surplus of silver currency has
nothing to do with the existing bust
ness depression in this country.
Alexandria gazette. [volume] (Alexandria, D.C.) 1834-1974, 1894-03-16

THERE Is nothing in the civil service
law that prevents the removal of gov
eminent clerks at the pleasure of the
head of the department in which they
are employed; but Mr.. Roosevelt, one
of the republican members of the civil
service commission, thinks there ought
to be, and therefore advises the adop-
ton of a rule that no such clerks shall
be- removed except upon detailed
charges, which they may see, and which
they shall have ample time 10 disproye,
if they can possibly do so. According
to Mr.. Roosevelt, he, and not the heads
thereof. should select the men who per
form the duties of the departments.
Wish Mr.. Roosevelt in the civil service
admission, the wonder is, not that the
civil service law has so few friends, but
2at it has any.
Alexandria gazette. [volume] (Alexandria, D.C.) 1834-1974, 1894-03-16

Mr.. John HAMPTON HoGE is not
only mad with the President, for re-
calling him. for cause, before he had
reached the post TO which he had been
assigned but with the whole democratic
party State as we'll as national, and
has rendered his services to the repub-
lican committee of his town. And yet
hlr. Hoge was recommended for an i'm
portant consulate by the entire con-
gressional delegation from Virginia.
Instead of relying upon congressional
recommendations, as has long been the
rule, appointing powers would, in the
majority of cases, subserve the public
interest better by ignoring them, as
such interest is the least consideration
that secures them.
