LETTER FROM WASHINGTON.
W'AsnmoTON, D. C, Not. 12.
The long dullness of the Federal City Is broken by
tb new life and preparation incident to the ap
proaching session of Congress. Numerous workmen
are engaged at the Capitol In fitting np the Senate
Chamber and "House of Representatives, to be In
leadlness for nso. The hotels ore Oiling np, and the
Btreeta are once more thronged with people. Already
several Senators and Representatives have arrived,
who have come thus early to secure quarters for the
season. As this will bo the long session of Congress,
extending perhaps Into the summer months, It is
unite Important that mcmliers should make them
nerves comfortable The new hotel, the "Arlington,"
situated on Seventeenth street aud Jackson square,
will be, without doubt, the fashionable resort or the
winter. The othcrjiinl.)Mer hotels of the city. Inspired
into competition, are freshening, painting, and, to
ome extent, refurnishing a consummation much
required, and which, altogether, will make Wash
mgton a more endurable city to the visitor than It
has been heretofore.
The Whlto House has been for some time past
also undergoing a rejuvenating process. Foreign
artist of skill are engaged la gliding and frescoing
its ample halls, and otherwise decorating the Presi
dential Mansion, preparatory to the customary
levees and receptions In anticipation during the
winter. Indeed, a gay season la contemplated.
Many of the foreign ministers and members of the
Cabinet and Sena'ors have secured largo and elo
irant residences, with a view, no doubt, to Inaugurate
a general season of brilliant entertainments, diplo
matic and International.
The President Is engaged In the examination of
the reports Of the heads of departments, abstracts of
which have been submitted to him upon which to
base his annual message. The reception halls of the
Executive Mansion are nevertheless daily crowded
with office-seekers and other persons seeking inter
views with hla Excellency, and who engross most of
his time. ' '
A large number of Government oflloors of the
customs and internal revenue have been flitting to
and frO on the anxious seat, not alone as regards tho
tenure of their office, but in reference to modlflca
tlons of Treasury rules. There has been a regular
game of "cross purposes" played for some months
past botween tweedledum and tweediedoe, in regard
to rulings, and geographical divisions have been obll
terated in enforcing rules stringently resulting in
'confusion worso confounded." The departments
find themselves perplexed as to the admlstra
tion or the . laws of different sec
tions. Year by year the fallacy of lmrosing a
universal law for so dlirusc a population and so ex
tended a territory is becoming more apparent, and
the attention of Congress will bo called to the neces
sity of so amending the revenue laws as to make
them equally effective in every section. Many of
the regulations which suit one section are entirely
antagonistic to others, and their enforcement lias
led to many serious complications.
Commercial regulations and business customs dif
fer widely on tho Atlantic and Pacific, North and
Houth, East and West. Tho rules adopted and en
forced are of a general and not special character,
and will not work advantageously to the Government
in every section. Hence a modification or a more
bdccUIg character than hitherto broached will have
to be made, or complications will continually ensue
clogging the workings ot commercial and manufac
turing interests.
The forthcoming report of the Comptroller or the
Currency recommends a change in the banking
laws, so as practically to admit or rreo banking,
which la the subject or great contrariety of opinion.
If Congress acquiesces in the recommendation or
the Comptroller to Increase the 1 circulation of
national bank currency irom 30,ooo,ono to $50,000,000,
the Increase of (20,000,000 will of necessity be ap
portioned to national banks in tho
(South . and West. many of whlsh
Institutions are now without currency. Of course
new national banks will be chartered, and bucIi a
fight will be Inaugurated as to the disposition of the
currency, that Congress will be forced to pass a law
equalizing the entire amount of $50,000,000 between
the States or the Union upon a pro rata basis or
population and wealth. The Southern States will, or
coarse, be relieved from the present pressure for
currency, bnt the New England States will be
forced to surrender some or their national banks,
for they have absorbed so far nearly
one-third or the issue or 30,000,000. Iu any event,
common Justice to the business interests or the entlr j
Union 1 equires thai national bank currency should b 1
ho regutatt d as to defeat the speculation now indulged
in by Wall street holders, who corner" tho currency
market by hoarding it and then sell it to Southern
and Western banks, who are without currency, at
fr jm four to nine per cant, premium. It is a traffio
at once injurious aud vicious, and should be checked
ty wholesome legislation.
General Spinner, United States Treasurer, in hit
annual report discusses at length tho question o'
compensation to officers of the civil service of all
grades. He has given much attention to this sub
ject during the eight years that he has been in the
service, and speaks In behalf of a system of compen
sation by which a higher order or talent may be
secured to the Government. Since General Spinner
has been Treasurer the transactions or his depart
ment have amounted to forty thousand millions of
dollars, end yet not a dollar has been lost through
any of his subordinates. A record which speaks for
itself.
Tho Horning Xeuw contains the following, which
may be of Interest to your readers, and has not ap
peared In any of the New York papers:
"Report says that last Thursday evening, Dr.
Wood, the night editor or the Hun, had a violent dis
pute with the managing editor, Amos J. Cummlngs,
a man whose name will always be looked upon with
contempt as a principal In the shameful publication
of John Russell Young's private letters. They came
to blows Anally, and the result Is that Dr. Wood was
made managing editor, but is obliged to wear a
beefsteak on one of his peepers, for ho has (in Mis
sissippi parlance) a fifteenth ainontluieut-a dark
tyt." A. C. J.
THE SPANISH BANK.
' 1 ' II :1s Virtually InsolTent.
The Spanish liank issue In July last amounted to
the enormous Ugure of 118,713,705, while Its entire
available and true assets were not worth more than
$4,162,807, leaving the balance of $14,550,H8I unrepre
sented by any trustworthy value whatever, in open
acuounts aud accounts with correspondents the
bank owed t5,6tts,072, which there was not a dollar
' Of specie available to pay if called for. The total de
posits were $u7,o1ft. Thus It appuars that the liabili
ties payable at sight amount to over $20,ooo,ow),wlitle
: to meet them there is only f .r)78,uao cash in tho
bank and ri7,7ilt at tho agencies; according to
which the holders of Mlly i 000,000 of the wuolo
sum would have to wait or whistle for thoir money.
. The sstiets of the bank would, if real, perhaps make
out abetter condition of things, but hoiv much they
. are worth may be Judged from the fact that, out or a
total nominal sum of $2i,4so,m, no less than
$2U,0M,ftoc consists of "Government liabilities." that
is, amounts to bo realized from oustoms dues aud
taxes, for loans made by tho Bank to the Uoveru
1 nieut under an arrangement between them, which
obliges the bank to advance the Government any
amount it may ask, tho former being authorized to
Hllect the taxes and receive the payments at the
Custom ilouse, in irder to reimburse itself. But
the progress of the ievolutlonory movement pre
vents any large collection of revenue. Altogether,
on the most liberal estimate, not more than $s,ooe,.
eoo uiav be expected this year from the two sources
of revenue, thus leaving the bauk, as to its transac
tions with the Government alone, with a balance ou
the wrong side of $12,000,000. in a-ldltion to this,
the bpanixh Government has ordered a fresh Issui
01 notes to the luuc of $12,000,000, guaranteed by the
cenflncated properties of the Cuban patriots, both
these sums amounting to $24,000,000. How is It pos
sible to realise these liabilities on tho fictitious bases
cf taxation, confiscation, and the general worthless
less ol the Spanish mortgage of Cuba?

Ills Iiait HonrsThe Itenthbed of a flood nun,
Sbvs the Washington Htar of yesterday, relative to
the death of the old ex-Postmaster General:
His dying moments were peaceful and qnlet, he
retaining consslonsncss to tho last, lentil 1s o'clock
last night he slept very well, but after that seemed
more restless. Ue awoke shortly before sunrise this
morning, and requested that the blinds of bis room
be opened, in order that he might see the son rise,
the sight of which he seemed to enjoy. About
eight o'clock he began to breathe heavier,
and it was evident that tho end
was near. Ills family were ' gathered
around the bedside, of whom he took affectionate
leave, ami expired aiont 8' o'clock, his last audible
words being "Joy I Joy l" When he first awoke this
morning ho seemed somewhat confused, evidently
thinking that he was about tn start on a journey, as
be cautioned his daughter, Mrs. Stlckney, to hasten
With the pHCking of the trunks or they would bo late
for the train, lie soon brightened up, however, aud
was perfectly conscious until the last. Ho has been
entirely resigned lor several weeks past, having
taken leave of his family about throe weeks ago, unit
constantly prayed that tho Lord would soon can him
home, though bo begged for grace to ho resigned 11 mil
it should !k! the will of Almighty (iod 10 take him.
Mrs. Sticknev. approaching his bedside yesterday,
asked bl 111 if all was clear; to which ho replied,
'Yes, yes, all Is cletir, all is clear."
Dr. 1'arker, of the Calvary Baptist Church, upon
entering tho room subsequently, iiske.i him
if u II was bright; to which ho replied, "Ye, all is
bright, all is bright.''
The body will be taken to the Calvarv ItanMst
Church on Sunday about 1 o'clock, when the coilln
win ue iincovcrcu, ami mo remains can do viewed
until 8 o'clock, when the funeral services will com
mence, and be conducted by Kev. Dr. Parker, Kev

In Chicago and other portlous or tho West, Delias
been in bad health for some time past and very in
firm. He caught cold while on a trip to the A.llron
docks, which was followed, on his return to Wash
ington, by a sort of bilious lever, but the maiucauso
of his death seems to have been from exhaustion of
the digestive organs and the effects of old age.
A CANARD.
The Rumored Sn.11 Domlneo Expedition Ofll-
cntny jjeniea.
The New York Times has the following in its Wash
ington despatches:
The reported sailing of a naval expedition for San
Domingo, which appears in some of to-day's New
York papers, is largely sensational, and is denied
here on official authority. Tho Albany, which left
New York on Wednesday, was nnder orders to Join
tho West India Squadron, which she will do after
having landed General Babcock, special agent of this
Government, at the Island of San Domingo. General
Babcock, who was sent to that Island last anTnmer,
and;returned in August, left here on Tuesday last
as the bearer of communication. to tho Govern
ments - of San Domingo and Haytl. What
the nature of his Instructions are is kont a profound
secret here, though It Is generally believed that his
mission relates to the question of the acquisition of
that island. The statement that a naval expedition
is to take possession or the island is absurd, in view
of the fact that that would be an act of war, and
the report that It Is to be surrendered to three com
missioners is also absnrd, when it Is remembered
that such surrender could only follow a regular treaty
to that effect, which must have the assent of the
Senate. It may not be generally known, but It is
nevertheless a fact, that a direct proposition for tho
annexation of San Domingo was received last
February from President ttaez, and now lies in tho
State Department. It came to hand just as Mr.
Seward retired, and the knowledge of this fact was
at the bottom of the effects iu behalf of a protecto
rate, which were made in the House at the close of
the Fortietn congress.
Mr. Seward's intention was to induco Baez and his
Government to run up the American flag and de
clare their adhesion to this Government; whereupon
we would send a vessel of war to protect them unjll
annexation was complete. San Domingo is as
anxious for annexation now os ever. Haytl does not
appear so. It is desirable to secure the whole of the
island, if possible, and it Is suggested that the nego
tiations now going on have that purpose In view.
CALAMITIES.
A Little t-lrl Burned to Death A Alan Gored by
a Bull.
The Carlisle Volunteer of yesterday says: On
Tuesday morning last Mrs. Eaton, a poor woman re
siding on East street, went to wash at a neighbor's
house, leaving a little daughter, aged live or six
years, and a younger brother at home. Tho little
girl was just recovering from an Illness, and was
propped up in a chair with pillows. During tho
morning the neighborhood was suddenly alarmed by
the screams of the little one, when It was round that
she was surrounded by a burning mass or feathers
anl bed clothes. Her face, body and arms were
terrloly burned, and although every aid was adminis
tered to her, she died the next morning. It Is
supposed the little brother had been playing with
matches and playfully threw one on the pillows sur
rounding his sister. Tho case forms another warn
ing to parents never to leave matches within the
reach of children.
Gn Friday morning last Moses Brocht, who resides
on the north side of the Conodogulnct creek, imme
diately opposite fie reservoir, met with a serious
uccldent which terminated his life on the following
day. Ue was attempting to chain a vicious bull,
when the animal turned upon him furiously, goiiug
him in the abdomen and letting out a portion of the
bowels. Medical aid was summoned at once, but
his injuries were or such a character that the physi
cians pronounced his case hopeless. He lingered
until Saturday, when he expired. Mr. Brocht was
an honest, thrifty, hard-working man, much re
spected by all who know him.
THE POPE.
, (ilfts Offered to Ills IIollneN.
The Pope's enthusiasm respecting the Council is
said to be unabated. Not long ago a priest brought
him a largo sum or money from the ladies of a Ger
man diocese, and in accepting the gift the Pone In
quired whether the bishop was coming to the Coun
cil. The priest replied that ho was too old, being in
his seveuty-lirst year. "You call seventy-ono old?'1
exclaimed the Pope. ''I am seventy-eight, and I
eel young, uud shall assist at the couucll without
neglecting my other duties." Under date of October
Its the Kouian correspondent of the Loudon J'oxt
writes: "Apnifmtot bl. Peter's, I hear that the Mar
quis of Bute lately wrote to the Pope offering to re
place the present glas windows or tne portico of tho
church, which are really unworthy of so splendid an
edlllce, with single panes of massive plate gla ss for
each window, reserving two of them tor the arms of
the Pontiff and his own not in color, but merely
cut on the glass. His Holiness, after having con
sulted the architects of the 'rcvereuda fabrlca,' and
lw economo, Monslgnor Teodoll, instructed the lat
ter to reply to the Marquis that there were at the
present moment more urgent restorations required
Iu the basilica than changing the windows ol the
portico, thanking his lordship at tho same ttino for
Ills generous offer, and hinting that the money re
quired tor carrying It Into effect, estimated at lS.eiKir..
would be acceptable for other purposes iu tho
Church."

A FORTUNE.
How a Yankee Mmlii It.
t A correspondent, writing from Dayton, Ohio, re
lates the following: - -
' It may not be impertinent to tell how a Yankee
newspaper correspondent and poor printer threw
himself into a fortune. At the close of the war Mr.
Blckam came hero. The Journal office, with good
will of the paper and many pqor accounts, was
offered for sale. It occupied a dilapidated ouc-story
shanty on Main street. Mr. Blckam proposed to the
leading Republican merchants that ho would take
the Journal It they would- furnish A000 to 110,000,
and give him three yeanV time to pay them. Such
an arrangement was finally agreed upon. Mr. Blckam
had no money, but was recommended by Prince
Mu rat of the Cincinnati Commercial. Tho paper was
turned over to Mr. Blckam. Each stockholder pa
tronized tho advertising columns of the Journal
very high rates for an interior city like this, I assure
you. The Journal prospered. In loss than six
months after Mr. Blckam took it he presented bills
to the stockholders for advertising, and In each case
the bills were for a larger sum than the share of
stock held by that stockholder."

The Financial Situation.
Despatch to Thi Keening Telegraph.
New York, Nov. IX The money market is un
changed, but there is evident desire on the part of
bankers to ease up the discount market, and rates
have declined to I0f12 for prime merchants'. Gold
opened at 1281.,' anil rose to Governments are
stronger at an advance of aiiout V. In stocks great
dullness prevails, and at the opening tho market
was weak. Later, however, it rallied, and was
steady at about yesterday's closing quotations. The
Gold Hoard will hold an executive meeting on Mon
day at 8 P. M., to hear the report of the commuted
on the Gold Exchange Hank, which desires to re

The Money market to-day was in a very unsatu
factory condition to borrowers, bnt lendere have
certainly no particular reason to complain." The
pressure for all kinds of loans was folly equal to the
(tally average, and the rates are very firm, especially
for discounts. The supply, however, is good, if not
absolutely sufficient for all wants, and the deficiency
is not sntilclent to account for the Ilrm tone or tho
market . . . . . ;
Money is readily scccsslblc on call at 6a8 per
cent, on prirao collaterals, but -discounts have ad
vanced niulcr the pressure of yesterday and to-day
to lo per cent, for choice double names, whilst single
names are not In favor at any price. . -
The sales of gold are very light, with little fluctua

lie Creates Another Herniation.
Writes a correspondent from Paris:
The announcement contained in a telegram f roui
New York to M. Ouneseo's new Journal, Le I'arUnw.iU,
to the effect that Pere Hyacinthe hud attended tho
Jtp. lull Synagogue in thut city, has created great
sevailal among the faithful here. By way of reveng
ing themselves on the reverend father for his baek
slldlngs, they have circulated a report that he has
gono over to the United States to get married to a
rich Boston widow, and that it Is not his Intention to
return to France. I trust that the latter portion or
the story is true, for I am sure the United States will
feel proud to number the distinguished preacher
among its citizens. To whatever denomination ha
may attach himself, there can be no question that
pure religion will always find in liira one of Its most
earnest and eloquent exponents. It Is stated that
since the withdrawal of Pere Hyacinthe from the
Order to which lie belonged, it is lorblddon to the
barefooted Carmelites to preach In public A mem
ber of the confraternity who had been summoned to
preach in Lyons the other day, was compelled to
excuse hiinseu on the ground of this prohibition.
THE NEW YOUK MONEY MARKET. .
The following extracts snow the state of the New
York money market yesterday :
from the Herald.
"Tho money market remains easy at four to seven,
per cent., the former being the exceptional rate tti
the Government dealers on pledges of United Stated
securities aint the lutterat bunk und among the trust
companies. On the street the prevailing rates on all
classes of collaterals are live and six per ctmt. There
is no change of rates in the discount market, but the
feeling is no worse. The spi.culators iu the West
seem Inclined tn try the old strategy of holding
grain for higher prices, uud hence tne remittances
westward, which havo been wo spasmodic in their
career this season, are again light. Some curiosity
Is manircstod with reference to the bank statement.
Inasmuch us the Government has sold three millions
or gold this week against tho purchase of only two
mllllous of bonos. but the decreased shipments to
the West leave little ground for the Inference that
the showing of legal-tender reserve will bo nnfa
vurable. The disposition to make time loans on
pledge of collaterals Is also becoming wore manifest,
the lateness of the season inspiring many lenders
with the belief that a eatlbfactory employment
of their money In this way at Bcvcn per cent. Is pre
ferable to holding it for tho contingency of a
'squeeze,' and earning meantime only four and five,
especially as the prospect of a squeeze grows more
and more remote. Iu discount prime tames pass
at ten to fifteen per cent., according to tiie time to
run and the character of the einloi-rfcincnu Buyers
liavo their choice of inferior grades at rates ranging
all the way from ltt to 4 per cent.
"The Government bond market was strong and
Bteadv, but without other feature. The ten leucy to
u duclioe which attends the situation of the gold
markers In a masure checked by tho ease ol th
woney market, which Induces speculative holders
to hold on. '
"Foreign exchange was weaker la the forenoon,
but the purchases for Saturday- steamer cleared the
market of the cheupwr bills, and quotations closed
llrmer. Tho transactions In contiueutal bills were
quite a feature of the day 's business, aud francs were
active and higher.
"The gold market was extromely dull, but strong
at lii6,i4l",'. Nothing further has transpired as to '
the deliberations of the special committee ou the
subject of clearances.
"Loans of cash gold were made at seven to Ave
ner cent, for carrying. At the Government. aui. r
