Washington Letter.
It has been a little bit dull at (lie
Capitol this week, and will probably
be dull until the 22nd, of February,
when the monument will he dedi
cated, and then for two weeks or
until the fourth of March, the city
will be as lively as crowds and great
expectations, can make it.
Congress has resolved not to uo
much more than pass appropria
tion hills. The executive depart
ments are moving along in a de
spairing way with their routine
work. The sad—eyed goverment
clerk awaits with fear and trembl
ing the day of politieni judgement,
hoping that Cleveland may over
look all his sins of omission, and
commission and retain him in the
trust he has so long abused. _ Dem
ocratic politicians have gone in ’arge
numbers to meet the President-elect
in New York. Republican politi
cians without a leader or a cause
are doing nothing. I
Society dear, simpering, mealy
mouthed society continues to smile,
and be a' villian. Indeed
it must be chronicled that society
has smiled too much and too often
this winter. The punch lias been
too heavy, and there have been
some rows and orgies in high life.
These things do not get into the
papers, they are personal matters,
and not of suflicint importance to
ho spread before the world, but the
result of certain disgraceful episo
des at dancing parties and receptions
is that the punch will be brewed
milder in certain West End houses
in the future.
Mr. Beecher was here during the
week as a lecturer and there is no
doubt that he was cut by his old Re
publican admirers. it is true that
the Democrats helped to till the
breach, but the Democrats are not
numerous or rich yet. *1 he hall was
not much more than halt lull, and
for the first time in years the great
orator saw many vacant seats be
fore him. If he will come again next
year he will have a better house; he
is an entertaining lecturer, and as a
prophet is superior to the Editor of
the New York Sun.
The Democratic statesmen who
have returned from New York seem
to he one and all impressed with
the honesty of purpose, and good
common sense of Mr. Cleveland. It
is observed also that- ihey have
caught from Mr. Cleveland the con
tagion of holding their tongues.
They per, i tently refuse to disclose
any private conversations held be
tween President-elect Cleveland,
and his party associates. The Re
publicans are looking and praying
for factional fights and political
blunders in-the new administration.
Many Democratic leaders have
been to see Mr. Cleveland in the
1.-.-t six weeks, and they have all
come away pleased with the coming
president and determined to do all
in their power to make his adminis
tration successful.
There is prospect of a still further
reduction of postage, by increasing
the weight of first class matter that
may be carried for two cents, from
a half ounce to two ounces. The
Committee ap-pinted by the publish
ers of the AVest, and North West to
urge upon Congress the propriety
ami justice of reducing the post
age on news-papers, report progress
j which is encouraging. The House
committee on Tost Offices is in fa
vor of reducing postage from two
cents a pound to one, cent. The
present'tax of postage on newspa
pers is a very heavy one,
amounting to a little li ss than two
million dollars per annum. The
postage was put on about ten years
ago by certain men in Congress
who took this method of revenge
for harsh criticism received
from the press. One of
them was Mr. Hamlin of Maine who
thought that the large city papers
would be the chief sufferers, out the
r-•suit was that the tax was felt
most heavily byjthe weekly pa ;? >ers.
The large daily papers avoided
some of the expense by employing
Express Companies at cheaper
rates. It is thought that a uni
form postage of one cem. per pound
will result in giving the govern
ment all the business, with only a
slight decrease in the present rev
enue.
Society is in a pucker over tho
question, “Shall our girls whistle?”
Of course they may, if they stren
gthen their lungs by using the great
Dr. Bull’s Cough Syrup.
A severe storm is reported to
have past through Rockdale county
Monday, unroofing houses and.
blowing down trees, fences and out
houses. While the people were
greatly excited, no lives reported
lost. The cyclone pits were made
available.
All grades of tobacco arc sold by
J. L. Kennedy.
Rapid Growth of a Cent.
A cent seems of little value,
remarks an exchange, but if it is
only doubled a few times, it grows
tb a marvelous sum. A young lady
in Portland caught her father in
a very rash promise, by a knowl
edge of this fact on her part.
She modestly proposed that if
her father would give her only
one cent on one day’ and double
the amount on each successive, day
for just one month, she would pledge
herself never to ask of him another
cent of money as long as she lived.
Paterfamilias, not stopping to run
over the figures in his head, and
not supposing it would amount to
a large sum, was glad to accept the
offer at once, thinking it also a
favorable opportunity to include a
possible marriage dowry in the
future. On the twentyfifth day he
became greatly alarmed, lest if he
complied with his own acceptance
; lie might he obliged to bo “declared
a bankrupt on his own petition.”
But on the thirtieth day the young
girl demanded only the pretty little
sum of $5,368,709.12 ! The aston
ished merchant was only too happy
to cancel the claim by advancing
a handsome cash payment for his
folly in allowing himself to give
bond —for his word lie considered
as good as his bond —without notic
ing the consideration therein ex
pressed, and by promising to return
to the old custom of advancing
smaller sums daily until otherwise
ordered.
Our arithmetical reporter has
been “figuring unit,” and says that
if the old gentleman had fulfilled
his promise, the daughter would
have had, upon the receipt of the
thirtieth payment, the snug little
sum of 110,430,617-43,
A plant which provides both fod
der and food for stock, but which
is very much neglected is the sweet
potato. It contans more nutriment
than any other tuber, combining
the starch of the common potato
with the sugar of the sugar beet.
It contains less water than any
other tuber and approaches in
dryness to the newly husked corn.
Moreover it is an exceedingly
wholesome food and is as void of
offense as a food for dairy cows
a the parsnip, while it fattens all
kinds of farm animals, including
poultry, very rapidly. Its cuJj'Ro
is easy and the cured vines make
a good and acceptable dry fodder.
Horses will cat this tuber with
avidity and soon prefer it to grain
working well upon it and preserv
ing excellent health. If a plant hav
ing all these excellent qualities
were newly introduced it would he
received with general favor, but
being an old and familiar one it is
naturally neglected, while new but
worthless ones are purchased with
eagerness at extravagant prices.
Gofloy’s Ludy’s Book for Fu’orivnry is one* of
the prettiest Valentines which the month has
brought us. The opening illustration, a hand
some steel plate, he:? for its subject, u very cute
little coup! o, consisting’ of a chubby boy, in a
<•)!;.riu ■ rlstie pose, and a little colored "iri,
who is looking over his cold shoulder, ‘*muk-
Imceyes at him,” and asking, “Will you bo
my Valeri tine?” A fine picture of Mr. W. \V.
Corcoran, of Washington, D. 0., the pHilah
thrapist, accompanies a biographical sketch
of that gentle man, and a description, with
Illustration,of the famous institution known
|as The Louise home. B ‘sides the usual pres
idential portrait there is a large number of
handsome cuts illustrating fashions and fan
cy work. There aro some especially good
short stories this month, bcskle-stho Interest
ing serials “Under Gray Ektos”uml Dreeming
of the Weird, the last of which is drown to a
close. Maforte's Knight and The Professor
arc both good stories, and there is some com
mendable work in the shape of shorter sketch
• A sprinkling of pretty poems fills out the
literary part of the book, and the balance of
the reading matter is made up of useful infor
mation on almost every point that can Inter
est a lady, be she a quiet home body, whose
interests areinhous diecplngand family af- •
fai rs, or a brilliant woman of society.
Godcy’s Lady’s Book never appeared to bet
ter advantage tk/m it does under its present
management. Every month it offers some
ik v/attractions and v/lns fresh laurels. It is
one of tho publications that grows old grace
fully, renewing its youth with each coming
generation, and seeming like the Phcenlx, to
bo born for eternity.
