. • Washington Letter.
fFrora our regular Correspondent.]
Washington, I). C., Feb. 23d. 1880.
Congress stubs along at a moderate pace
with a pretty strong indication that it won’t
tire out as soon as has been predicted. During
the last few days matters of a little more in
teresting and sensational character have been
coming to the front, and, all things considered,
life at the Capital is growing less monotonous,
4'rom a political standpoint at least. An
eveut very rare in any Congress—the expul
sion of a member—threatens to shortly occur.
Mr. Acklen, of Louisiana, stands accused of
u serious breach of honor among members, in
presenting to the House what he represented
to i>e the report of a committee, and asking
to have it received and printed. These things
are always accepted on.the word of a member,
and when'it was discovered that the paper
presented was not a committee report and
that Mr. Acklen had no authority whatever
to mo represent it. there was great indignation.
* An investigation was ordered, and the result
reported places Mr. Acklen in a very bad
situation, lie is a Democrat, but nearly
every Democratic member believes he should
•be expelled, while on the Republican side he
Inis several active friends who favor milder
treatment. Mr. Aeklen’s career has been a
little checkered since his election to Congress,
ami he Isas been accused of some unmanly
things both here and at home, in consequence
of which some newspaper have dubbed him
the ” Louisiana Coat,” yet he has generally
managed to whitewash himself. It is not
known whether lie had any corrupt motive in
the matter now pending, and an investigation
into tiiat, feature of tiio ca y e is being made by
the Judiciary Committee. If any bad motive
is found, he wid certainly be expelled.
The contested election cases that have oc
cupied the most, at: out ion so far are Curtin vs.
Vuctiin in Pmmsy'ivania and Donnelly vs.
Washburn in Minnisota. Roth are- practicali\
decided. The radical press is making a
terrible howl over tiie finding of the sub-com
mittee in the latter case, because they say
Washburn’s majority was 3,000. Rut when
the report of the full committee is made. I
think it will convince all fair-minded men
that it is not partisan and that the sitting
member secured all his apparent majority by
means which give him no legal or just claim
to .the seat. The record contains evidence of
flic grossest frauds perpetrated in Washburn’s
interest. Ail example of the kind of testi
mony before the committee is this : Washburn
came into -Minneapolis from the country with
a majority against him. lie is confessedly
unpopular in ti e city, and yet ho overcame
this adverse majority and ran up a majority
for.,firm self of 3,300 in seven precincts of the
city where the regular Republican majority
never exceeds 350. This was done by resort
'*> the statute that each voter’s ballot, and
name on the registry should be numbered,
so that it might be known how each man
voted. This law facilitates bribery and had
been declared unconstitutional by the Court,
nod Ju : ges of Flections had decided (lie
evening before the election day that thev
would abide by that decision. Governor
vV ashburn, the contestant’s brother, and the
latter's book-keeper, llail, are said to be con
victed of bribery, and it will be held that W.
D. Washburn must, have been privy to it.
This is but one of a number of pieces of testi
mony on which the sub-committee base their
finding.
The new rules of the House are still pend
ing. Closing the open debate in Committee
of the W.hole did not bring an early disposi
tion of the suhject as was supposed” and there
have'been indications that the whole revision
would finally be defeated on account of some
of the amendments. The greatest danger has
grown out of the contest between the Ap
propriations Committee and some ofthe other
less important ones. The first named com
mittee desires to retain the power it has always
had, while lour or five others are fighting for
greater importance by securing a division
and distribution of the bills appropriating
money. The older and wiser members, like
Speaker Kandall and Genrai Garfield, oppose
the change, but by combining the strength
and infiuence of these iitlie, unimportant com
mitteesagainst the Appropriations Committee
they have come very near doing considerable
damage. Any one experienced in legislation
will see at a glance that the effect of distribu
ting tbe control of the appropriations in
creases the danger of raids upon the Treasury,
and it will be noticed that the lobby is unan
imous for the change. Another thing that
threatened to aid in defeating the revision
was the attempt of the Republicans to amend
the rules so as to prohibit attaching riders,
containing political legislation, to appropria
tion bills. A few Democrats took a position
in favor of these amendments at first, and
things looked a little squally, but after the
speech of Frank Hurd, who showed these
Democrats how much they were-indebted to
this privilege for the legislation in favor of
Constitutional liberty already obtained, they
were not so ready to play into the hands of
the Radicals.
As I indicated three months ago the “cour
tesy of tiie Senate” is strained to the utmost
in the report of the Senate committee on the
Ingalls cases. It finds that bribery and
corrupt means were employed by the friends
of Ingalls to secure his election to the Senate,
but that these friends were acting in the
most disinterested way, on their own hook,
so to speak, and that poor Ingalls knew
nothing of the crimes committed in his name
and for his advantage. The committee does
not say what it thinks of the corrupt proposi
tion made by General Ingalls to Governor
Anthony, lint, perhaps, Senators generally
think that in matters of tiiis kind it is better
to let bygones*be bygones. Possibly many
of them know the obstacles sometimes to be
encountered in obtaining a re-election, and
recall the means resorted to in their own
cases. The first step towards such a result
as has been reached was In the delay of
action until Ingalls had ample time to “fix”
the worst evidence against him. That his
election was bought and paid for with Jav
Gould’s money, those who kuow most about
St still have no doubt. Piiono.

An Invention Which Makes Everything Water
proof— What Puzzles the Gotham Professors
—Most Delicate Fabrics Rendered Imper
vious to Water Without Injury.
New Yoiwx, February t).—A new invention
has been exhibited in this city which promises
to be as important as any invention of these
ten years, and which is likely 7 to effect great
changes in, if not revolutionize, some branches
<)f industry. The exhibition was had at 41
R ost Sixteenth street. There were present
ex-Secretary McCulloch. Richard Sugden
Grant, of the Paterson Locomotive Works,
F. O. French, General Emerson Opdyke,
David MofTit, of the Little Pittsburg Mine,
and others.
The inventor, 1). M. Lamb, stood at a
table, on which was a washbowl, and he held
a piece of broadcloth over the bowl on the
palm of his left hand and poured Croton
water upon it from a pitcher. “ You see, it
does not wet it,” he said. He passed the
cloth around, and it was found be dry. lie
subjected a piece of black velvet to the same
operation, with the same result. It did not
absorb any moisture, the water on striking
its silky pile forming great globules and
bounding oil'like quicksilver.
” \\ hat I claim,” said Mr. Lamb, “ is that
all fabrics treated by my solution are rendered
i absolutely water-proof and moth-proof; that
l it makes no difference whatever in their ap-
pearance, and that it can be applied for a
cent a yard.”
This was an extreme claim. “ I will show
you,’ he said. He took a silk hat from the
mantle. ” This hat has not been thoroughly
treated with the solution, but only sponged
with, it on the outside, but I have worn it
through-all the rain, snow and sleet of the
last fortnight without any protection, and you
see how it looks.” The hat was passed
around. It was as smooth and glossy as if
just handed down from a hatter’s shelf.
“Here are two pieces of silk, cut from the
same piece,” he said, producing two pieces of
! sleasy siik of a delicate sky blue. “ One has
; been treated and the other has not. I don't
j know which is which, and nobody can tell by
| sight, smell, feeling or any sense. They
: weigh the same, yet you see—” and he plunged
| them into the washbowl. Presently he re
moved them and shook them in the air. One
! was saturated—spoiled forever ; the other was
|as dry as if just removed from and oven.
; He took an ostricli feather and plunged it in
{ the bowl; lifted it out and flipped it in his
! lingers so that any adherent drops would fall
u!f. and handed it around. It was quite
dry.
He produced a piece of lovely pink velvet,
one of the beautiful aniline colors, and poured
water on it. 'Flic result was the same—it
jumped olf as quickly as possible, like water
troin a red-hot stove. Precisely the same ro
suit followed the submergence of lace and
furs that had been treated. They were
perfectly water repciiant.
“So of leather,” he said, taking down a
tanned goat skin. ••This is kid,” he added.
such as ladies’ boots are made of. 1 hung
this over an empty water pail, in such a
! position that it would hold water, and poured
two quarts into the skin. 1 let it hang three
days and three nights, and at the end of that
time it had not leaked a drop, ami half a
minute after I poured the water out of the
kid it was ns dry as it is now. I have impris
oned moths with these furs for a year, and
they w<>u!d starve ii I didn’t give them some
thing to c-af that had not been treated. The
furs are untouched. Hereafter there will be
no necessity to lock up furs in summer.”
” llow much do you say it will cost to
subject goods to this treatment ?” asked a
spectator who had just come in.
•’ A cent a yard, perhaps,” he answered.
“ Next to nothing. Gloves can be treated for
four cents a dozen pairs, so that they will
never spot or mildew.”
“ Can clothing be washed and gloves be
cleaned that have been subjected to your
process ?”
“ Yes ; just as well as before. The solution
seems to enter into the fibre and renders all
colors absolutely fast. Nothing will fade that
has been treated with this solution. Fading
is produced by the action of light or heat on
moisture and my goods never get moist. I
boiled a piece of figured ribbon three hours,
and it was just as strongly water-repellant on
| taking it out as it was before,”
“What I claim is this.” he added shortly,
; “ that in five years nobody can afford to wear
I anything that has not been treated by this
process and rendered water and moth repel
lent. If a lady can go out anywhere in a
storm without an umbrella or overshoes;
dressed in silks and velvets, and feathers and
laces, with only a veil over her face to keep
the rain out of that, and can stay out in the
storm without getting wet, will not every lady
in the world desire to be similarly protected,
providing it does not add anything whatever
to the price of goods ?”
“ Have you any objection to telling what
your solution is ?”
“ I cannot- tell exactly, even if I would.
My patents now cover the whole civilized
world ; so there is no harm in saying that the
base is the hydro carbons with a solution of
india rubber. But there results from my
formula a compound wholly new to chemistry,
and even Prof. Dorernus doesn’t know what
to call it.”
Mu.Tilden Annoyed.—A New York letter
says : “ Mr. Tilden personally, as well as
his immediate friends, are excessively an
noyed at the persistency with which the
advocates of other Presidential candidates
within the Democratic party are representing
that he is a physical wreck. These repre
sentations. they say, are based upon absolutely
nothing which has the shadow even of a fact
to sustain it. Yet, as they have a malicious
purpose to subserve, they further say it is but
proper that it should be known that Mr.
Tilden’s health was never more robust than
it is at this moment, and that his intellect was
never clearer nor more active, in proof of
which they refer to the vast amount of routine
professional work of one kind and another
he is performing every day.”
A Rochester Physician’s Experience.
R. Caul kins, M. D., of Rochester, N. Y.,
certifies, Oct. Gth, 1879, that he has used the
Safe Kidney and Liver Cure in his practice
for diseases of the kidneys and liver, and the
result has been satisfactory in the extreme.
He says : “ I would now prescribe the same
remedy to all similarly afflicted, and you are
at liberty to so state in your testimonials.”

The Stone Mountain Press has, after a
brief but very peaceful career, passed into ,
the history of the past.
General Hood's youngest orphan, a girl
, seven years old, has been adopted by Mrs.
M. Joseph , of Columbus.
Columbus boys are still using the Alabama
slings, much to the detriment of window
glasses. The ordinance forbidding the use
of the slings seems not to have had any effect
on theboys.
In Sumter county, on Tuesday night, a
colored man by the name of Mintus, once a
preacher, attacked Houston Kemp, another
1 colored man, much esteemed in the neigh
borhood for his uniform good behavior, and
inflicted a dangerous gash in his forehead
with an ax.
The Gwinnett Herald says: The impres
sion that our farmers have disposed of all
their cotton is a great mistake. There is a
considerble quantity still in the hands of the
producers. On a visit to the country a few
days since we noticed bales of cotton piled
up at half the houses we passed.
The Southron knows of a gold mine within
twenty miles of Gainesville, which it predicts
will surprise the natives, and strangers as
well, before midsummer of the year. It is
not at liberty to say where it is at present,
and it is not for sale. But it does say.
“ Watch out in a month or two, and . see if
you recognize it when the time"'''comes to
open out.”
The New Orleans Democrat says that “ it
has been discovered that the climate of Cali
fornia and Northern Georgia and Alabama
is just suited to the cultivation of the cin
chona tree, from which quinine is made, and
it is proposed to introduce the cultivation
of these trees in tiiis country, so as to save
the expense incurred every year in sending
to South America for Peruvian bark.”
| Miss Cassie Brand, of Gate’s district, in
; Gwinnett county, the Herald says, “ espied a
I large hawk pounce down in the yard and
; seize one of the chickens a few days ago,
i but, instead of alarming the whole neighbor
! hood with her screams trying to *shoo’ it off,
! she ran and caught it in her delicate white
| hands, pulled the chicken away from its
I claws, and then wrung the hawk’s head off.”
A storm proved an unwelcome visitor in
Marion coiinty on the loth. The wind un
roofed several houses and leveled seventeen
pine trees on less Ilian an acre of ground, blew
down part of A. P. Belk’s gin house, over
turned his cotton screw, killing a mule and
slightly hurting a negro. At Mrs. Story’s
houses were unroofed, timber felled and
fences scattered. These places are within
a few miles of Buena Vista, and about a
mile from each other.
Says the Dahlonega Signal: “ Our Jfriend,
Mr. Marcus Reeves, of this county, brought
to this office last week the skin of the largest
wild-cat we ever saw. It is neatly and artis
tically stuffed, is furnished with a pair of
red flannel eyes, and looks alarmingly life
like. The animal was captured by Messrs.
William and Randall Reeves, a short dis
tance below Patterson’s bridge on Brier
creek, was three feet three inches in length
and large in proportion. It is said to have
been the largest wild-cat seen in that section
for many years. The Messrs. Reeves arc
noted and Successful hunters, and rarely
fail to capture any' kind of game, even a
wild-cat, when once started.”
Brunswick Seaport Appeal: “There never
was a more bare-faced trick, or a more flim
sy fraud than the shaking of those SGOO,OOO
of repudiated bonds at the bidders and les
sees of tiie Macon and Brunswick Railroad.
The road was seized by the State, in the
terms of the law, for failing to pay the inter
est on it3 endorsed bonds ; it was advertised
according to thetorms of the statute for sale ;
it was sold at public outcry to the highest
bidder, and tiie State was the purchaser at
$1,000,000. Is there an honest or intelli
gent lawyer on the continent who will risk
his reputation on a written opinion that the
sale did not wipe out all prior liens? or that
the State’s title under that sale was not
good against all outstanding mortgage bonds
on the road.”
Bartlesville Gazette : “ Perhaps one of the
most amusing incidents of the season occurred
in front of Messrs. T. B. Lyon. & Kennedy’s
store last Saturday afternoon. A colored
citizen from the country appropriated from
the basket at the door some ground peas,
without leaving value received. He was de
tected in the act and given the choice of
twenty-five licks with a board, to going to
the guard house. Market street had been
all day crowded. A barrel was set out and
1 goober grabber’laid his abdomen on the
end of the barrel with his hands and feet on
the ground, while a large stout colored broth
er took the board in both hands, and with
all his might dusted the scat of ‘goober grab
her’s’ breeches. If it were possible we would
describe the crowd's enjoyment of the comedy.
Albany Advertiser : “We were present
last week and heard a conversation between
Col. B. G. Leckett and Mr. S. P. Salter, in
which both expressed fears of a scarcity of
sound cotton seed for planting, on account
of damage .sustained from the spell of rainy,
cloudy weather during the picking season,
which came on while the fields were white.
A tour through Calhoun and Early counties,
which terminated yesterday, confirms the
fears of these gentlemen, as we were assured
by many planters in that section that good,
sound cotton seed were very scarce. Some
planters have already ordered seed from
Middle Georgia, and others will he forced
to do so. if this scarcity attained all over
the cotton belt, and only enough seed could
he procured to plant just half a crop, and
force the production of forage crops, the sta
pie would bring a better price, and there
would he plenty of provisions in the country
very soon.”
The following from the Griffin News is
well worth reading: “It is really amusing
to see some of the politicians who never did
anything for themselves or the country, abu
sing Gen. Gordon, who was true to his peo
ple in war, devoted to them and their inter
est in peace, loves Georgia, loves the South,
loves the Democratic part}’—yes, loves all
these more than he does power, position or
political preferment. It is different with
these would be politicians. -They will sacri
fice principle, country and friends in order
to obtain a little political power. The rea-j
son the little fellows are barking after Gor- |
don is with the hope that it will affect his I
popularity with the people, but not so. They
can bark and howl on, but the people of
Georgia will stand by Gordon, the soldier j
statesman, as long as ho lives, and delight to :
honor him with any position within their
power. There is no doubt but what he will !
die in the harness.”
