WASHINGTON.
our srr.cui. let-tub.
Washington, D. C. Jan. 10, 1881.
Tho weather is hardly a fair subject for
letter writing, yet it has been a leading topic
of conversation hero lately. Washington
has lost somo of iu reputation for a semi-,
tropical winter climate. Through tho re
cent change in the weather offico of the Sig
nal Service Bureau, and tho extraordinary
conduct of Mr. Vcnnor, things appear to
have got badly mixed. From a placo where
mild and balmy breezes and pleasant sun
shine prevails at this time o'f the year,
Washington has been transformed into one
of the coldest cities in the country ,with snow
piled up along the curbs like the drlfU along
a country fence In the North. Usually the
most we liaveit a little flurry of snow which
comes to day and melU to-morrow, so that
a sleigh rido is a rare thing and conveyances
with runners scarce. But now we have had
over three weeks of solid sleighing, with no
present prospect of losing it. During the
greater part of this time there has been "an
eager and a nipping air" abroad, most un
comfortable to come In contact with, and on
New'Year'a morning the thermometer wos
quoted at 14 degrees below zero. This tern
perature was lower than that of any other
habitable portion of tbe United Stales except
Mount Washington, where it was 17 degrees
bolow. Mr. Vennor is a foreigner and many
people think he is wholly unjustifiable for
inflicting such a state ol things as this upon
tbe capital of a country with which be has
nothing to do. But, whatever others may
think, tho boys who could get sleds have
heartily approved of the snow if not the
temperature. Such excitement over coasting
I have never seen anywhere, From morn
ing till tllght throngs of youngsters have
blockaded Thirteenth Street, and Washing

growur- nave nany waicneu mo sport. A

scene a festive one.

was observed in the usual manner. The
feature of the day here is tbe official reccp-
lions, of which
that at the While House is
chief. The general attendance on this oc
casion, aside from the official and diplomat
ic nrcies, waa not as large as in lormcr vcars,
but the scenes in the blue parlor as tbe re
ception progressed was animated ond bril
liant. Mrs. Hayes's fascinating manners
and her incomparable social ways have di
vested even this ceremonious affair of much
of ita formality. Her rare tact of remember
ing names and laces and nearly responses
to each creetine have made her receptions
entertainmenUlo be remembered amongthe
successes mat make ine name or Mrs. Madi
son so famous in social lore, along with that
of Miss Lane who, later on, presided over
the household of her uncle, President Bu
chanan. Mrs. Hayes has presided over the
President's household with a like crace. pe
culiarly her own, and many were tbe ex
pressions oi regret mat tnis would be her
last new rears day mere.
From present indications the Inauguration
of General Garfield will exceed in brilliancy
any similar event since tbe war. Prepara
tions are going forwnrd una grand scalend
enough Is already assured to render tbe dis
play especially magnincenl. Jieporta show
that every State and nearly every Territory
wiii oe represenicu oy military or CIVIC or
ganizations, while the parade of citizen sol
diery will be especially fine. Pennsylvania
Avenun is 10 ue illuminated ior a mile and
a half, and tbe intersecting thirty-eight
streeta are to be arched In the names of the
several State. An unprecedented crowd is
anticipated. All tuo. Hotels long since con
tracted for eueeta to their utmost canaoitv
and committees are engaged in securing the
ue in private apanmenis.
The President has recently, in converai.
Hon with his friends, remarked that he was
extremely well pleased that bis term of of
fice was so rapidly drawing to a close. He
said to a gentleman who talked to him on
the subject lately tbat be would leave Im
mediately after the fourth of March for bis
home Iu Ohio, where he would be occupied
iur sumo iiiuo iu arranging nis private ai
fair. His personal friends sav that Mr.
Hayes will leave the White House with at
least suu.uuu oi bis lour years' salary, He
was in quite comfortable circumstances be
fore, and his White House savings, with
what he already bad, will, for a man of his
moderate desires and economical expendi
tures, make him rich. From what be says
it is understood that when he rets vrv.
thing fixed he will to some extent follow the
example or General Grant, and enliven
portion of his time in travel. He said to a
prominent southern Renublican that fw
while he intended to visit parts of the South
wbich he bad not seen. He indicates that
be will not care to re enter nublia life, hut
if a favorable opportunity should be present
ed and he tail to avail himself ol it, he will

what was accomplished in various depart
menU in tbo late lamented 1B80. For ex
ample, Mayor Cooper married 91 couples at
City Hall, and the Aldermen made 450
hearU beat as 228, during tho departed year.
The free baths, eight in number, from their
opening, June 1st, to their closing, October
15tb, were patronized by over 3,500,000 men,
women and children. At the Mayor's office
8 permlU were granted for street preaching,
48 for firing cannon, 227 for calcium lights,
81 for theatrical and concert licenses at $500
per license, and 173 oaths wore filed. Tho
Morgue has done an unusually large busi
ness, the total number of dead bodies taken
to that cbarnel house having been 4,575; tbe
largest number was ia June, 479, and tbe
smallest number In January, 334. There
were 528 deaths by drowning, 219 males
and 309 females, verdicU of suicide having
been rendered in 398 cases. Tl.o total num
ber of homicides was 417. Tho total num
ber of deaths in 1880 was 23,342, being an
increase of 3,499 over tho preceding year.
Of people who are reported to bavo killed
themselves there wero 117, being an increase
of 38 over 1879. Alcoholism was responsi
ble for 222 lives, and heart diseases for 1,148.
The Chief of Police reports the arrest of 62,-
820 males, an increase of 4,075 over 1879,
and the arrest ot 18,870 females, an increase
of 321 over 1879. Tho Board of Excise
granted a total of 4,880 licenses to saloons,
covering five gradea of processing! ng from
$30 to $250 per license, and footing up a to
tal of $237,816. There was a total of 9,073
marriages for the year, as against 8,440 in
1879. There wero 27,493 births in 18S0 as
'against 25,673 in 1879, Tbe total receipts

.vaccinations were made by tho Board of
Health. A total of 320,81)8 immigrants
landed at Castle Garden, exceeding tho hu
man receipts at this port on any previous
year, in 1879 It was 135,070, and the near
est approach to 18S0 was 1864, when 319,-
223 persons came to us from the effete des
potisms. Since tbe Commission of Immi
gration was organized 34 years ago, iq 1847,
tbe grand total is 0,177,833. Of those who

ported was 344, with neerecntc liabilities of
19,ZU1,6!JI and asseuainounlinglo 8,146,
291. While tho cross liabilities exceed those
of 1879 by nearly $3,000,000, the number of
lailurcs Is 25 tier cent lees, unci is the small
est since the panic of 1H73. More than half
me total liabilities or 'u are included in
eight failures Iu tho colTee, cigar, grocery
and iron trades, thus showing in general re
sulU that the proportion of-liabilitics to the
number of failures is much smaller than for
tbe past decade. There were lour failures
each upwards of $7,000,0011; four between
$500,000 and $1,000,000; five between $200,
000 and $500,000; nine between $100,000
and $200,000, fifteen between $50,000 and
$100,000, and 307 In which the liabilities
were umlcr$50,000 each. Among these uu
fortunates was one lawyer", ond, most won
derful of all, one plumber I The no ine; of
no newspaper men appear in tbe list-pos-sibly
because they ell made plenty of mon
ey, possibly because they had nothing to
lose I While the statisticians appear to have
overlooked me matter, i can teo no legiti
mate reason wnydonn Kenya political tail
ure should not be appropriately included in
the list; liabilities and assets badly mixed,
made up promiscuously of unfulfilled
pledges, "deals" with the political enemy,
two newspapers bothdaliy, political power
fatally telescoped, wholesalo abuse from
both parties and a bull-dog determination
to get even with the follow who went back
on him at tho wrong moment. Tho figures
showing tbe wholesalo and retail trade for
itibu are impossible even to approximate till
later in tho month, but I am informed on
tbo best of authority that in the dry goods
business Lord Ic Taylor is a long dituince
ahead. There are plenty of other figures to
do ootainca oui i mink wnai i nave given
will serve as camples, and I will only add
that the city budcet for 1881 calls for 29..
854,322, or an increase of $1,711,330 over
1880. If the bucolic law-makers at Albany
will let ut alone lor a year it will not cost
much in 1882 to run the city machinery. It
is interesting to notice how tho funds tor, the
expenses of the City Government for the
current year are divided: Common Council,
oi.zsu; finance Department, $205,370:
Law, $143,148; Public Works, S2,44S,350;
Parks, $641,500; Police. $3,400,740: Street
cleaning,$735,000; Fire,$l,508,959; Health,
j;,i,ui)j; unanues and uorrectlon,Sl,487,
416; Education, $3,002,095; Election Ex
penses, $161,150, and soon to the end f tbe
chapter.
yuito disconnected with this arithmetical
farewell dress parade of tho yejr that has
left us, but decidedly apropot of the inaugu
ration of 1881, was Ibe lact that on the last
day of 1880 the flags over the City Hall
were at half mast. Which was certainly
suggestive of dead hopes, dead ambitions
and all the rest of that sort of sentimental
things; and while these emblems of city,
slate and national glory swung sadly ia the
breeze it Wus easy for many a lonely beart
to recall the dear ones who wero with us
only twelve months before, who would nev
er more exenango wun us glad greetinir of
Ik. i.il.i,. i;n, ti.. ...i - r "
the holiday timo. The real cause for winch
the flags were half-masted was the death of
District Attorney Phelps, who was univer
sally respected by men of both partita for
bis sterling good qualities.
Speaking of hi death reminds me of a
somewhat singular coincidence. At his
funeral on Sunday which was attended by
a great number ot gentleman of local, and
not a lew oi national prominence, a hymn
was sung, which Mr. Phelns wrote in mm-
ory of a dead friend. On tbe same day at a
memorial service In honor or the memory of
tho late Rev. Dr. Chopin, held i
ter, Mass., a hymn was sung which was
composed by the dead clergyman.
The end of the old yoarand tliaheirinnlnir
of tbe new has been prolifio of fires nol au
uncomfortable thing to read of in view of
the recent demoralized condition of the ther
mometer. Among mese ores was the burn
ing of James R. Keene's Newport villa. In
cluding what the redoubtable ton t-i'mnl,
cum Ward, pathetically characterized as "a
divine wine-cellar." Another fire was the
destruction of tho Provost mansion, in the
town of Polham, which is said to havo been
occupied at one time by Aaron Burr. The
latest important addition to the list was the
total annihilation of Mt. St. Vincent's, iu
Cential Park, on Sunday morulng, more
recently and better known as "Stetson'f,"
which has been a private resort aud res
taurant for sporting men and the general
public The part of lha bmlillno r-
Jiotel purfwsea was over one hundred years
old.
Considering the fact that Fahrenheit has
been fooling around at all sorts of ridiculous
degrees below zero within the past week it
is highly edifying to read of tbe case of a boy
wbo v, as "overooiuo with the heat" at the
Grand Opera House a feiv nighU since It
baitbe same grateful effect on nno'a feelings
asagenulne caseofsunstroke would produce
