Tho Roman Catholic Archbishop of
Caihel, in a letter to tho Dublin Freeman,
earnestly deprecates emigration as a remo
dy. "I have seen," ho writes, "the scattered
children of our raeo in almost every land
that the sun shines upon ; and, after a fair
experience In tho great republic of tho west,
and in the numerous dependencies of Great
Britain, I have, no hesitation in saying that
an Irishman's fittest and happiest homo is
in Ireland. Religion is essential to the
happiness of tho Irish Catholic, and no
where is he sure of finding it as in Ireland.
We must resist any proposal of this kind
on extensive emigration scheme as an out
rage on tho country."
Great Injustice has been dono to Gov
Seymour by a corrupt cliquo of politicians
at Washington, in suppressing a letter of his
positively declining to bo a candidato for tho
Presidency, or to accept a nomination under
any circumstances. Heretofore ho has not
been free from responsibility himself, in
failing to announce a distinct decision on
this subject, and in allowing tho impression
to go abroad that In a certain contingency
his objections might bo waived. But if tho
terms of a recent letter aro not strangely
misunderstood, there is noexcusa for putting
this distinguished Democrat in a falsa po
sition, or lor using his name, with a full
knowledge that ho has forbidden it to bo
used in any such connection.
This week's Coal Gazette publishes two
extracts Irom our last week's Wcissport cor
respondence relativo to tho Ycakcl rcmon
etronco against the Bcliler & Krcsgo license,
and takes exception because wo published
tbem without comment. Just hero, we will
Inform the editor of that paper, that the first
wo heard that Messrs. Behlcr tc Kresgo hail
' kopt a disorderly housa was when the mat
ter was brought to the attention of tho court.
We have frequently visited Wcissport, and
Weissporters have called upon us, tinco those
gentlemen have kept the Fort Allen House,
but wo never saw anything wrong around
me nouse, nor am any ol our visitors men
tion the fact ofiUbcing"a fearful nuisance,"
as the editor of tho Gazette terms it. Wc
published tho letter of our correspondent,
firmly believing that, as a resident of Weiss
port, he knew just what ho wrote about.
During the timo tho hotel has been In charge
of Messrs. Behlcr k Kresgo we have been in
the house perhaps half a dozen times, and
on each occasion found it to bo just as order
ly and well kept as any other houso in tho
country) this and nothing more wo know
of the affair. If tbey have 'disobeyed the
law, ns appears to be tho caso from
tho evidence before court, and the cpn
eequent refusal of their license, then they
are punished for their disobedience, and
there the matter ends. If this houso has
been such ''a fearful mansion" why was not
the law invoked long ago?
The Comlnff 22d of Fcbrunr-.
The N. Y. Sun of Thursday last says, and
well says : This is the twenty-second day of
January. One month from this day will bo
the twenty-second of February. Ono hun
dred and forty-eight years ago on the 22d
day of February, 1732 Gcorgo Woshiugton
was born. He was properly ev led "Tho
Father of his Country." It is truly said of
him that ho was "First In war, Tirst in
peace,First In the hearts of his countrymen."
Of uninspired men, history has produced no
more sublime character.
It was his voluntary retirement from of
fice at the expiration of his tecond term as
President of the United States which gave
the finishing touch to his fame and made it
immortal.
Ever since tho death of Gen. Washington
It has been customary to celebrate, tlte anni
versary of his birth. This Is usually dono
by suppers, balls and other festivities in tho
evening ol tfcat day. There Is a particular
reason why the day should be generally
and universally observed this year. For
the fiwt time In tho history of the country
man has made his appearance on tho

insatiable in his ambition, that all tho

"WATCHING I2AC1I OIHCtt.''
It begins to look, says a Washington dis
patch of the 10th Inst., as though tho Forty-
sixth Congress would accomplish llttlo or
nothing In Its present session. Nothing of
importance has been done yet, and thoro is
no indication of any intention to do anything
of Importance In cither branch. Tho fact of
the matter is that both parties aro afraid to
act, and are watching sach other. Mean
whilo Congress is simply drifting. Senator
Bayard Is the only man in the Democratic
party who has dared to advance an iJea,aml
has the courago to urge action upon it. Ho
is still determined to make a, sturdy fight
for his legal-tender resolution, and Is earnest
and honest in his desire to bring the Demo
cratic party to its old doctrines on tho money
question. But tho Democratic leaders are
more afraid to faeo the music on Bayard's
proposition than on almost any other that
could be named. They know that It has al
ways been Democratic doctrino that tho
Government had no power to issuo legal
tenders. They know that the Democratic
party opposed tho passage of tho legal tender
act, and they know that the Democratic
party havo always and invariably held that
this act was unconstitutional, and that the
Government had no constitutional right to
issue legal teudcrs,cspecially In time of peace.
Nevertheless, fully ono-half of tho Demo
crats in both branches aro nervous and ap-
prehenslyo and exceedingly anxious to have
tio financial question let alone. Senator
Bayard has said that he does not contem
plate In his resolution any attack upon tho
greenback circulation, but contends, with
reason, that tho greenbacks will bo belter
currency if his resolution shall becomo a law
than they aro now, and tho Democrats who
havo managed to climb into public life with
the aid of the financial agitation, and think
they can keep in by pretending a groat lovo
for tho greenbacks, havo already begun to
shout in chorus that Senator Bayard's reso
lution is a blow aimed at tho greenbacks and
in favor of tho money power. In reality, it
is nothing of tho sort, but is a sound Demo
cratic proposition ; but tho outlook at this
writing is that there is no probability of his
resolution being adopted by the Senate. Tho
Republicans will vote against it solidly, be
cause they havo already pledged themselves
in caucus to opposo any and all finahcial
legislation, with tho singlo exception of Mor
rill, who voted for tho resolution in Com
mittee, and will voto for it in tho Senate,
and there aro at least a dozen Democratic
Senators who will voto against tho resolu
tion, or will dodgo tho voto. Tho outlook
is no belter in tho House, either for any need
ed financial legislation or for any reform in
the tarilT, or for the passage of any bill which
directs any general interest. Speaker Ran
dall has given out his fiat that nothing is to
bo done except tho passage of tho appropri
alion -bills. This is Tildcn's policy, and
Randall is using tho entire power of his posi
tion as Speaker to carry it out. Tho Speak
er and his Gramercy T.-irk master have put
their heads together and decided that it is
best for their interests to havo Congress do
nothing, and Congress will not be permitted
to do anything if they can help it. Some
of Randall's intimates arc talking very con
fuleutially of an adjournment by the 1st of
March. It is utteily impossible for Con
gress to get away at any such timo if it
makes any pretenso of attending to the
business on hand, but tho Randall crowd
sny that It will bo done, and that as soon as
tho annronrialion bills aro outofthowav
an adjournment resolution will be sprung,
auu passc.il in snort omcr.
ODITUAHV.
The cable announces tho death of tho
eminent French statesman Gabriel Claud
Jules Favre, Member of tho French Acs
demy and Republican Member of tho Sen
ate for tho Departmcnnt of the Rhone. M
Favro was born at Lyons, March 31, 1809,
which makes him nearly 71 years old. At
tho outbreak of tho revolution of July, 1830,
ho was pursuing his studies for the bar. Ho
took au active part In the revolution, after
which ho commenced practice, when the
independcuco of his character and the
radicalism of his opinions went far to mako
him what he has ever since remained, a
consistent champion of French Republican
ism in tho press, at the bar, and in the na
tional assemblies. After tho revolution of
February, 18-18, ho became Secretary Gen
eral of tho Miniatry of the Interior) he also
officiated for some time as Under Secretary
for I oreign Affairs. He voted for tho prose
cution of MM. Louis Blanc and Considlero
for their complicity in tho insurrection of
June, 1818, refused to join in a vote of
thanks to General Cavalgnac, and opposed
the expedition to Romo of December, 1818,
He became the strenuous opponent of Louis
Napoleon, and, upon being elected after the
coup d'ttal of 1851 to tho General Council of
tho Lolrc-et-Rhone, he refused to tako the
oath to tho new Constitution. His defence
ofOrsinl in 1858 created a great sensation
by its boldness and clequenco. In tho same
year he becamo n member of tho Legislative
body, sinco which timo ho has distinguished
liimselfby his speeches against tho war with
Austlia of 185'J, and in 1801 by an attack on
the policy of tho Imperial Government in
Mexico. Iu 1809 ho nearly lost his seat.
Ho was proposed for eoveral constituencies,
but was defeated in several, including Ly
ons, but succeeded in being elected in Taris
by a majority of 3701 votes over M. Henri
Rochefort, lu a total voto of 52,770. On the
downfall of tho Empire aud tho establish
ment of tho Government of tho National
Defence, In 1670, ho was appointed Minis-
' terof War, In which capacity ho proceeded,
September 18, 1S70, to tho headquarters of
King William of Prussia, ar Fcrrlercs, lo
consult with Count Bismarck on the terms
of an armistic. The. negotiation came to
nothing, in consequence of Count Bismark
insisting as a preliminary condition, on the
surrender of Btrasburg, Toul and Verdun
In January, 1871, M. Favro was Invited by
Lord Granville to attend, as representative
of France, the conferenco held iu London,
on tho Black Soa question, but he declined
to do to for various reasons, one of the chief
ones being the refusal of Count Bismarck to
grant him a safe conduct. M. Favro re
signed the office of Minister for Foreign Af
fairs, July 23d, 1871, and on tho 1st of the
next month resumed his practice as a bar
rister In tho Palaco of Justice. Afterwards
he resumed practice at tho bar. In January,
1870, ho was elected a Scuator for the De
partment of the Rhono, and his term of of
fice would haye expired In 1882. He was
elected batonnler of tho Order of Advocates
at Paris, in 1800, and again in 1801, and a

SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE.
ami waniiikuton sriiciAU
Niw York, Jan. 17 1880.
From tho activity of the Important com
mittees, and other Indications, I nm con
vinced that there is really a purpose on the
part of tho Domocratlc mojorlly in Congress
to shorten the session and effect an early ad
journment. Whether this programme can
bo put through succecsfully, or whether tin-
forsecn difficulties and unwelcome discus
sions will prevent Its execution reraians to
bo seen. Tho theory of tho leaders probab.
ly is that a long session, running into the
prcsidcntal campaign, can not do them any
good, and It might do them much harm.
The contested cloctlon cases are being put
ahead as rapidly as twssiblc, and tho ap
propriations will be passed In shorter time
than evor before. To do this the old watch
word "economy" will bo dropped, and tho
amounts to bo voted based upon the bills of
last year, without any material reductions.
Those are tho indications at the present
lime, though future ovents may cliangaj
them. As all signs foil !n dry weather, so
all Indications In politics and Congress ollen
turn out no index of the final result. There
will bo no riders attached to any of the ap
propriations, nor any feature calculated to
stir up a political discussion. The Marshals'
deficiency appropriation bill Is in charge of
Mr. MacMahon, of Ohio. This bill may re
open some ot tho questions which were
prominent during tho special session, as
thcro is an Um for marshals appointed in
tho California election. The feeling among
tho mora influential leaders on both sides is
that there will be no tariff changes, and that
while there may bo no financial discussion,
there will bo no financial legislation. Tho
low bond bill, offered by Mr. Wood, chair
man of thoWajs and Means Committee,
may lead to a lengthy discussion. Tho fact
that Secretary Sherman opposes the bill it
Is thought will havo a great weight. Chair
man Wood's friends say that a syndicato is
ready in New York to take tho 31 por cent,
bonds at par as soon as tho desired legisla
tion is effected for their issue. This, too,
will undoubtedly havo great weight in de
termining the action of the House.
Wo Lave another party of red-skins at tho
capital, and tho Tremont IIouso,whero they
are quartered, is a center of attraction for the
curiosity seekers. Chief Ouray, of tho UteS,
accompa'nied by his wife, and several other
chiefs, composo tho party, and they attract
more attention than any who have previous
ly been hero sinco tho days of Spotted Tail
und Sitting Bull. Three of tlioso now hero
participated in the Thornburgh fight at the
Whito river agency, but none of them bad
any hand in tho killing of Agent Meeker
Their object in coining hero is to adjust
terms for tho removal of tho tribe from
Colorado, If go they must, and to obtain tho
best terms possible, as well as pardon for the
murderers. Ouray has had two or thrco se
cret Interviews with Secretary Bchurz, of
which llttlo can bo learned further than
that the old chief seems worried and un
happy. Thero is no probability that the
Govorraent will listen to any terms shortof
a surrender of tho brutes who massacred tho
agency people and outraged the three wo
men. Ouray is a rather good looking Ind
ian, with an intelligent, boncvolent-looking
countenance, but short and squatty, as aro
nearly all the others of tho party, all of
whom havo tho appearance, of being well
fed. Chipita, Ouray's wife, is about forty
years of age, with n kindly faco and a pro
lusion ot long blacu Hair, blio dresses in
half Indian costume, with mocasins on her
feet and a blanket thrown over her should
ers. Her only ornament: aro silver braeo
lets and beads.
Our first real snow fall camo-this week,
and it needed something like it to convince
residents of this locality that wo aro really
in tho middlo of wintor. So far it has been
winter only in name, a purely theoretical
one, established by authority of the almanac
alone. All tho season the yellow jasmine
has been in bloom; tho field daisies have
scarcely failed for a singlo morning to tarn
their bright faces up to tho sun, and on Sat
urday last I observed a number of out-door
strawberry plants in full blossom. It is a
peculiarity of all seasons, I bcliovo, that no
body can recollect ono anything liko it, but
the present season has, up to this timo, cer
tainly been an exceptional one, so far as
niild weather is concerned.
Commissioner LeDuc is appealing to Con
gress to buy him a thousand acres of land
within three miles of Washington, upon
which ho can experiment with boiled po
tatoes, bamboo sprouts and bon-bon plants,
Tho soil and climate around where LoDuc
spends his timo seems peculiarly adapted to
tho cultivation of schemes. Somebody says
that when ho gets his experiments to such
perfection that ho can raise tho kind of cold
tea that is sold at tho capitol restaurant ho
can get as big an appropriation from Con
gress as he wants. Don Pedro.

One of tho most important reports that
has been yet transmitted to Congress is that
ol Postmaster General Key In responso to a
resolution of the House of Representatives
calling for information regarding tlio extent
lo which tho mails have been used by the lot
tery companies. It not only contains items'
regarding that particulir subject, but out
lined tho various methods employed by
originators of fraudulent schemes for obtain
ing money through tho agency of the mails.
Six different varieties of swindling concetns
are referred to iu tho reported it is expect
ed that all of these institutions will bo rooted
out with the utmost dispatch. Many thou
sands of dollars will therefore be saved to be
spent, It is hoped, by our credulous citizens
iu some more worthy direction.
Tho articles of incorporation of the Nicar-
augua Inter Ocean Canal havo been prepared
by Admiral Ammer, aud tho name of Gen.
Grant appears first on tlte list of Incorpora
tors. Iu order that avaricious and perhaps
some unscrupulous bankingiustitutlons may
not be benefitted by the use of the fundi of
the Company, the articles provide that the
Treasury and Sub Treasury of the United
States shall bo the authorized depositories
of all moneys. Tho books of tho Company
are to bo thoroughly examined by compe
tent government officers, and tho expendi
tures are to bo carefully guarded.
There appears to exist nuite an earnest ef
fort upon tho part of soma portion of the
House of Representatives to organize an an
ti-Grant movement, on tbo ground that to
give a third term to any man would bo to
violate both the letter and the spirit of our
institutions. They claim not to have any
personal hostility to Grant but take what
they call high constitutional ground as a
princlple.lt Is known that the movers in this
view of tho situation are strong friends of
Secretary Sherman, although his name as
yet does not appear aa being advocated. Yet
it it naturally Imagined, if such then be, is
Intended" directly or indirectly to favor Se,
retary Sueraim's claims to. the nomination.
There Is oouiidorakle talk about refund.

is to cost not more than $750,000, and Clove

000. Tho Houso Cnmrnltteo on appropriations
havo decided, lo appropriate $000,000 for tho
fees of United States Marshals and their
Deputies, for the current fiscal year. This
Hem was tho great bono of contention last

failure of the civil service appropriation bill
of tho Forty-fifth Congress.
The First Assistant Postmaster General
is making strenuous efforts to Introducd a
reform in the addressing and delivery of
letters. Special instructions havo been is
sued to postmasters and other officials to ex
ercise great caro in tho adoption of names
for post offices so as to prevent confusion,
Care must bo taken to ascertain that thcro
Is no such namo, as It Is proposed to adopt,
already on the list as an established post
office. All prefixes, such as East, Centre,
New, North, South or West, must bo avoid
cd. It is surprisingto find in the post office
directory how many towns thcro are having
cither in whole or in part tho samo name,
Tho reception of tho President on Tuesday
evening was largely attended and greatly
enjoyed. Tho tablets of tho ladies were ex
ceedingly beautiful, and Mrs. Hayes was as
gracious as usual to tho guests of tho oven
ing, and is winning golden opinions by her
courteous affability.
It is a source of regret to tho denizens of
Washington that tho Hon. Horatio King
has discontinued his literary ro-unions. The

idea, supplies tho wants of tho public in
that direction. Tho receptions aro highly
interesting as well as instructive. August.

The volumes thus far Issued being only the

more need be said of them than that they are

convenient than the usual and unwlcldly
quarto or octavo and their prleo is cheap be-
yond all precedent In book making, so that to
the uninitiated It Is a mystery how so mnch

practical printer and bookmaker, who knows
how the greatest element In modifying the
cost of books Is the number of buyers among
whom tho Investment cost Is to be distributed
the wonder would be not that tho books can
be made for the price, but that the number of
