WASHINGTON GOSSIP. Occasional’Correspondence Denceorat. Washington, D.C.; Jan. lti. 1885,— Never in tiie history of Washington has business been so dull or her mer¬ chants so despondent. It really ap¬ pears that everyone has ceased buying and many dealers°declare they had as well shut up their shops as to keep them open, as they are not paying rent, let alone clerk hire and other expenses. There is no good reason to be attribu¬ ted for this state of the case, and why it is so. is the coiiumdrum of the hour. Matters have been lively in both houses of Congress so far this week, and exciting prospects are in view tor weeks to come. In the House it is no secret that there is “the devil to pay and no pitch hot.” Randall, since Iiis visit South, has swelled up like a big toad, and don’t propose that any small fry |>olitician shall get his gaff in any¬ where. In fact, he pi opuses to do just as he pleases for the balance of this Congress ; to be speaker for the next, and to succeed Grover Cleveland as President iu 1889. Many prominent Democrats say that "he has cut off more than he can cliaw/’JNot one.but over fifty good honest Democrats have within the last w*ek spo¬ ken to your correspondent relative to Mr. Randall’s assumptions. It appears that he has not only determined to run the business of the Committee on appropriations, but to run the whole House. There are those among Demo crats who fail to see why Randall, who is always elected by Republican votes, iu a state that gives 80,000 ltepubliaan majority should be dictator for the party. The Republicans have always said that the Democratic party followed about four yeais in the rear of Hum pa 1 ty. and it is clear that Randall has been tiie manager who lias placed the party 111 this position, but to-day when the reigns of Government are placed in Democratic bands, it will not do for the parly to drive behind, nut to take the lead. Tue end is not yet. but it appears clear that Mr. Randall, with bis 4d Democratic clbereuU, backed by the en'ire Republican Party in the fkiUAe,,jWiU no longbe ingimUeil to (fW.it. wf'.the p. laJ. o- f four’ Mi.” s policy I, H s liiude Demis, iv.iniii a I., publican s'.ale, 1/1 ,t grows mere i:iU.is*dy Kepi;Mum * each year u>' Iiis success, UutU trim the old laid;limed majorities of .iO.UOl, t has changed to Republican majorities id' 89,UbO. )n the Se.,ate n tittle breeze lias been stirrel over the Slieru - m Davis mattw, but it v.'ill ai’ioiiut to t» ,ly a u:ue days’ wonder, and then the people will settle down to their ordinary avocations. While many important measures de¬ mand the attention of the Senate, there is one of paramount importance that should not b* lost sight of. The House has passed the bill making the Agricultural Bureau a Department of the Government, It now rests with the Senate, to either pass this bill or allow it to sleep the sleep of death. The farmers throughout the country are in¬ terested in the passage of this bill, and our advice to them is, that they at once prepare petitions and se d tiem to the Senate, asking for the passage of this most important bill. Whether the things will improve in the Pension Office under the manage meut . of Gommisai inei O. I. i.U.n k as yet remains to be seen. It is said on what is called here pretty good an thority that lie was recoinmemled for the position ot Chief of the Bureau in consideration <if Iiis promises to the Seeretaiy of tbe Interior to request tbe removal of many of the beads of divis Ions in the Pension OHiee, who, under the corrupt rule of Dudley had become as morally rotten as hitnsdf. This under tbe established rules and tbe civil service code, is considered neces¬ sary 1 efore the Head of the Depart¬ ment will summarily order tbe dismis¬ sal of any one. The Hon. O. P. G Clark lias not as yet fulfilled bis share of the , covenant, . and , there , are those who say lie is afraid. The Pension Office is full of rings,*an*l Congress will probably in the course of tin coining week, order an investigation into the way matters and things stand in that institution. It is expected that und er this congressional fire, the truth will be surrendered, by those who are anx io is for continuation in office. There is one briiium individual of the name of Newcombe, a man about 8lxt s , xt y v-five nv. years years of t a'*e age, who wli may mav >>e be.,. le membered was strongly ..suspected of I- »h» t was known in Washi gton as the “Safe Burglary,” Burglary, in which niwi the the iate Ute General Babcock and Harr ngton were indicted h o has been employe! as a privatede- tectiye to watcli over the actions and get points on other employees of the Pension OHiee. Assistant Chief Whel pley, of tiie Special Service Division, was astonished the other day on hav¬ ing charges preferred against him by this black-guard, and a commission was appointed to investigate him with a stenographer to take testimony. Newcombe swore that he had begun to take notes as to Mr. VVhipley’s con¬ duct from tiie first day be (Newcombe) was appointed. When asked by the defense, "how lie came to make notes of Mr.|\V. so so 'ii, even liefore lie knew him to speak to,” lie said : "1 always take notes with day and date of the ac¬ tions of all those employed in this office.” This system of espinage is falling in¬ to had odor from exposure, and the oth¬ er day the colleague of Newcombe was relegated to clerical duty, leaving Mr Newcombe in sole charge of the field in tiie District of Columbia, 1 ow un¬ der the able tutelage of Estes Rath bone. who figured so disreputably dur¬ ing the last elections. The inauguration is the all prevail¬ ing topic in everyone’s mouth, and it is believed that it wilt surpass anything of the kind ever seen before. The new Pension Office is to be temporarily placed in condition for tiie iuaugura lion ball, the tickets for which are to be five dollars each, admitting only one- 1 here was a great . rush ...... of patriots to get on the several , committees ... on 111 - auguration, winch ... aggregate . nearly , three hundred, the mam object ... with ttie ,, many being 1 ... the hope of „ going . to , the . ball ,, , free.

T TmK vrr. - Traveling Agent, Atlanta, Ga. Number 4. Hubert K. Lee The people of the South will celebrate tiie seventy-eighth anniversary of tbs I irtli of General Robert E. Lee to-day. Although more than 14 years have gone by since his spirit passed from earth, his loved and loving people still cherish the memory of his noble char¬ acter and heroic deeds; and while this day is celebrated with fitting ceremo¬ nies hundreds of thousands venerate his name and prod; iin his virtues. Gen. Lee belonged to a family which was conspicuous in the great events, which go to constitute the history of America for two hundred years. He was fitted by birth, training, associa tions and education to take a promi¬ nent part in the d tings of his day, and almost the. whole of his life was devo¬ ted to the service of iiis country. The story of Ii is weer P ir t, nosf -• # household. ATot only is the name of Lee loved and honored by those who were with him in the struggle for the Lost Causa but also by those who were his ene¬ mies in that struggle, and by enlight¬ ened people in every part of the world. His claims to greatness cannot be dis¬ puted, and his virtues as a man, and Iiis achievements as a leader of nitiii-. are indellibly recorded in the pages tit" history. While Gen. Lee possessed geni us of a. high order, lie was not what is disfltoc tively .. , , known as a genius. Ilia ... reputa .. tion rests . on higher . . , grounds, , or as a. biographer ,. , expresses it, .... "ou a certain combination, . . just .... admixture of - qual- , a ’, Hies, ... a perfect „ balance of . character . . at . once rare and admirable.” l)r ‘ 1 ...

As an en¬ gineer lie wu s dilligeiit and faithful. As a subordinate oflicer lie was in tiie highest degree trustworthy and relia¬ ble, and as a leader he was Ki id and.: considerate of the feelings and welfare of those millet him. lie was a tender, loving husband and father, an earnest,, truehearted citizen, a gallant and peer¬ less soldier. Above all these was lus Christian character, which makes Ills name doubly dear to all who bow in true humility, as be did, before the. Greater and the Redeemer of men. Robert E. Lee w'as singularly free from that ambition which seeks mere personal j ends, “lie looked upon com maud as duty to be undertaken aud performed, and not as a place to be sought on account of its honors and rewards and the power it carried with it. lie was a man of great moral and physical courage, and truly can it be said of him that lie was “without fear and without reproach.” It is useless to draw parallelis or make comparisons bet we* 11 Lee and other great chief tains of the past or present. He occupies a place distinc¬ tively his own. Hu was the ideal .Southern leader. Iiis fame is un diumied by petty jealousies or political, contentions. He passed through the ordeals of peace and war, prosperity and poverty, of exaltation and humil¬ iation. and his character came out as pure gold from the refiner’s fire. Eve-, rywhere and at all times he was the embodiment of gentleness, dignity and moral grandeur. The South does well to honor his name, for lie was the typical hero of toe Lost Cause.—From the Savannah Morning News, of 10th instant.
