LETTER.

From our Washington Correspondent
WASHINGTON, Jan. 7I, 1867.
The democrats in the House be-
ieve that Cuba deserves recognition
at the hands ofthis government; the
republicans, whatever they believe,
voted this week to man to help
Spain, by a continuation of the do
nothing policy. And in addition,
Dingley, the republican floor leader,
admitted that the Cuban question
was a partisan question. Surely
the democratic party could not ask
for more good campaign material to
be given them in single week by
their opponents. If the democrats
get the votes of all who believe that
it is the right and duty of this
country to end the war in Cuba by
aiding the Cubans to gain their in
dependence, at the Congressional
elections, they will get about three
fourths of the entire vote of the
country. Dingley may dare to
make opposition to doing anything
to help Cuba, the platform upon
which he will appeal for votes in his
own district. to be returned to Con-
gress, but there are few republicans
in the House who will dare to do
the same. But no matter what
these men may do or say at home
they cannot escape the record they
have this week made by voting down
the democratic amendments to the
Consul and Diplomatic bill, declar-
ing for recognition of Cuba by this
government. Let that record be
kept before the voters.
The administration in its anxiety
to keep down the appropriations in
order to wipe out the Treasury de-
ficit has made one mistake that may
give it considerable trouble. That
Is, In reducing the number Of letter
carriers In cities. There was some
plain talk on this subject in the Sen
ate from republican Senators. SEN
a.of Hoar said: "It is absolutely
intolerable that this great branch Of
the public service should stop or be
crippled. Many of the smaller cities
Of the country are to be deprived
practically Of mail delivery facili-
ties, and It is time that something
de done to avoid serious business
embarrassment" And Senator AL
lison said: 1.-THE point is, that the
Postmaster. General has presented
tstiinates6 Congress too low TO
eover the expenses Of his depart
ment." The cut In the appropria-
kion for the District of Columbia,
which has no representatives in
Congress to make q fuss about It,
Is the deepest Of all, the amount be-
Ing nearly two million and half
dollars less than the estimate ofthe
Commissioners, and more than half
! million lesS than the appropria-
tion for the current fiscal year. All
Of this cutting is done for the pur-
poe Of enabling the republicans to
make Z good showing In the Con-
kressionai campaign Of this year,
regardless Of the ihconveniencc It
may eause.
The Slowneis Of the debate in the
senate on the treaty for the annex
alton d Hawaii has not prevented
ID ieachiAS an acute stage, and
tkets nay be some sensational dc.
velopnients before It u ended. The

DIR LIE HARDY EXPLAINED.
His Letter to Park Commissioners
on Care of Squares.

His Letter to Park Commissioners
on Care of Squares.
Members of the Park and Tree Commits
sion took exception to Health officer Le-
Hardy's recent statements inSthe Morning
News, criticizing the action of the sanitary
board In allowing sweeplngs sprinkled over
parks and squares, and in which were
some pointed assertions.
Commissioner Baldwin called on DR. Lee
Hardy in regard to the matter, his object
being to have the commissioners placed in
a better light The result was the follow
ing letter sent him yesterday by DR.. Lc-
Hardy:
Il am Informed by members Of the Park
and Tree Commission that they feel Of
Tended at some expressions of mine pub
hshed in the Morning News, Wednesday.
take great pleasure in saying l neither in
tended, nor do / believe 1 used language
conveying that impression. We all know
that your commission has done all in its
power to beautify our parks, streets and
squares. Your pride has been in your
work, and had you not been hampered in
its execution by want of a sufficient ap
propriation Of money, and been obliged to
turn over it's administration into other
hands and curtail oil expenses, you would
vices of a master forester and first class
gardener TO direct the work. There would
then have been no cause for criticism"
There were a number sharing the same
opinion in regard to scattering manure at
this season, as did DR.. LeI1ardy When
this fact was made known to him, a let
ter was addressed to the commission ask
ing that their intentions be abandoned at
this time. He stated that late in the fall
was the only proper time for scattering
sweepings and that they should even
then be worked into the soil. Commits
sioner Baldwin simply acknowledged the
receipt of the request, stating that he
would refer the matter to the commits
sion at its next meeting. Whether the
matter will be carried out as originally in
tended remains to be seen, but there is a
decided sentiment against it, especially
during the hot months
Aside from the objections arising In be-
half of the public health, 1t is also insist
ed scattering sweepings in summer
amounts to a nuisance for several reasons.
The parks are now being used as play
grounds for children, as well as everybody
else who go there for peaceful pastime.
Were this project carried out, however. it
is asserted the effect would be anything
else than agreeable.
