Correspondence Of the Aexandris Gazette
WASHINGTON, Dec. 6, 1894.


1t was currently reported on the floor
of the House to-day that the President
had intimated that unless some finan-
cial legislation, in the line of his recon-,
m sndation be enactedIby this Congress,
he will not hesitate to convene the new
republican one Immediately upon its
ADJOURNMENT. While this is not at all
strange,it naturally recalls the fact that
he refused to convene this democratic
Congress Immediately upon the adj
journment of the last one, though he
! was urged to do so by many of the best
and wisest men in the democratic party.
William Fielding, a Russian iron
worker, 80 years old, fell from the third
floor of the new postoffice bulldog, this
morning, to the ground, fracturing his
skull, breaking his leg and sustaining
other severe injuries. The doctors say
he can hardly recover. Fielding has q
wife and several small children.
The President to-day appointed
George Booker postmaster at Fortress
Monroe. Postmaster General Bissell
will appoint General James Gwyon
postmaster at the Soldiers Home near
Hampton.

SENATOR HoAR says the whole
American people should raise their
voices and cry aloud against the Turks
for killing some resisting Armenians
who had provoked them without cause.
But the Turks, nor any other foreign
nation, Asiatic or European, nor even
Mr.. Hoar, cried out against the Ameri-
cans who, few years ago, fired q
Chinese village in Wyoming and shot
the poor inofensive, unresisting and
fleeing occupants as they rushed rom
their burning shanties, in their efforts to
escape. But Mr.. Hoar has always af-
forded an apt illustration of the mote

ONE OF the republican leaders in New
York says the result of the recent cleo
ton in that State will be "that the VIC
tors will fill the offices. not abolish them
to enjoy the pereuisites, not to cut
them Off" Reform is good word with
which to catch simpletons. The con-
temptuous disregard with which the re-
publicans of New York are now treating
their mugwump and anti-snspper allies
is just what was expected by the demo-
Gratis of that city, and, naturally, is not
disagreeable to them.

A PROMINENT and highly respected
Virginian, residing in the Northern
Neck, in note renewing his suDscr'p-
ton to the GAZETTE, says;
SIN this deluge of democratic disas-
ter it is consoling to find that the edl,
tor of the GAZETTE has the courage OF
his convictions and is, as he always is,
fearless in the discharge of his duty as
a journalist, in placing the cause tor
our defeat where it properly attaches"
If all the other newspapers OF the
country had expressed their convic-
tions prior to the Chicago convention, a
President would been elected who
would have convened Congress on the
5th of March, 1893, and that Congress
would have passed low tariff bill IN
three months, for no opposition TO
such a bill had then been developed,
and the effect of that bill in lowering
the cost of living would have been SO
apparent that the result of the recent
election would have been impossible.

THE most irrefragable proof that
could possibly be afforded of a plentiful
supply of money in this country, and
that all of it is as good as gold, is pre-
sented in the facts that the government
can aud does borrow as much as 1t
wants for three per cent, and that the
Secretary of the Treasury says it can co
so for even less, and that, too, not from
Wall street syndicates, but by popu-
lar loan from individuals in all parts OF
the Union. 1t is not lack of money,
but of it's profitable investment, that Is
the cause of the existing business de-
preston, and that the coming or print
ing of more money, or changing the
