LETTER FROM WASHINGTON.
Frotu our Regular Crre®|wnlent
WASHINGTON, I>. C. f Jan. 24, IS SO,
That great obstruction to progress in
the House—the refunding bill—being
out of the way for a time, two appro
priation bills have been passed this
week. As the time approaches for \
going into joint convention to declare
the result of tho Presidential election, j
both Houses are giving belter attention
to business. Mr. Atkins, chairman of
the appropriation committee, lias been
unwell, but is better, anil says the com
mittee will have bills ready as fast .a
the House desires them. He repeats
what he said sometime since, that all
the appropriation bills will be present
ed in such shape as to prevent partisan
discussion, unless the Republicans are
even more unreasonable than usual. As
to the payment of election marshals, be
says he is personally in favor of includ
ing the amounts due them in the prop
er bill, but that the committee has not
yet acted on the subject. There is no
doubt, however, that the marshals will
be paid, as, though tho committee may
possibly fail to provide for them, there
are Democrats in both Houses who will
vote for an amendment for that pur
pose. In short, there is a determina
tion, if any delays during this session
make an extra session necessary, that
the fault shall be with the Republicans.
While on this subject I can not help
stating that Mr. Atkins, in the very
responsible position of head of the
appropriation committee, has shown
rare good judgment: has done much to
protect the public treasury : has been so
industrious in discharging his duties as
to injure bis health, and, above all, has
shown a capacity and willingness to
learn that are highly creditable. Almost
every Democrat and Republican in the
House regrets that tins is bis last f'on
gressional term for tho present.
The Senate will probably give the
Secretary authority to pay 3 per cent,
interest on the bonds to be issued under
the funding bill just passed by the
House if such rate appears necessary.
This it will do instead of (-lacing the
interest arbitrarily at 3} per cent. This
will probably be the principal amend
ment in the Senate and there is now
little doubt but the House will agree to
it finally.
Mr. Cox and Mr. Reagan now have
charge of the two House bills now of
most interest, and they are both hope
ful of getting favorable action during
this session. Mr. Reagan will almost
certainly fail. The principle for which
he labors ia gaining sup|*orters constant
ly, but it is one of too much importance
to be hastily endorsed by legislation.
Mr. Cox will push his reapportionment
through unless the Radical# in Congress,
already said to be distrustful of Hen.
Garfield, shall use the bill for the dnu
ble purpose of " firing the Northern
heart " on the subject of Southern sup
pression of the negro vote, nnd as n
means of forcing an extra session. The
immediate cause of Radical anger
against Gen. Garfield is the sup(o*ed
fact that be intends to exalt Senators
Blaine and Sherman, and neglect Gen.
Grant and his friend#, including Senator
Conkling, and to pay more attention to
the real interest of the country than to
the sectionnl questions which have kept
the Republican party alive and the
ultra Radicals within it on lop for years
past. HENO.

THE CHECKERED 1 AKKKR OF HAEVEI. DOI.O*
I,ASS lI'YRTH.
Wasminhton, January 2J-- " I lie Man
in the Dome" is dead. Ho had ana
tional reputation, and thousands of
people throughout the United States
who have stopped at his stand, just he
low the large picture in the dome of
the Capitol, will remember him. Samuel
Douglass Wyeth WHS no ordinary man.
Few of his visitors knew his name, and
lewer still were aware oi Ins checkered
career.
Wyeth came from Harrisburg, where
hirt, father had a printing oili< e, in which
(ieneral Simon Cameron learned how
to "set" type anil become a printer.
Samuel and his brothers found their
way to Philadelphia, where he set up a
stereotyping establishment on I'ear
street, near Third ; hut soon failed, and
was ruined financially. About this time
Ins domestic relations became inhar
monious, and the result was that his
wife lelt him, went to her home in
Cumberland county, Pennsylvania, and
there she still remuina. From Ist!J up
to the time of his death this peculiar
man never saw his wife, although he
was visited at times by his children.
Wyeth was known by all the old
printers of Philadelphia, and when he
came here he sought out A. .1. Donald
son, now in the tiovernment Printing
tltlice, and secured a position in the
stereotyping rooms, where he remained
tint a short time, and his restless dispos
ition took hint into the devious patii of
journalism. lie became a correspond
ent of the Sunday I hen he
wrote a book oil the "Ins and <'tits of
Washington," and latterly took to sell
ing photographs in the Capitol. Along
in G.*> Congress cleared all thA booths
out ot the building, but Wyeth, singu
larly enough, was not included in the
exodus, and was given a stand up in the
dome. Here it was that he became
famous and earned the title of "The
Man in the Dome." Wyeth was of ex
cedent education, naturally bright, of
retentive memory and an inquiring turn
of mind. He wrote a book on the
bronze doors, and bad studied closely
all the features of the Capitol building
and of the city. He was a human
directory and encyclopaedia. His stand
proved a lucrative one. and he cleared
as high as SI.V M) to jf'.'tsKt per year from
the sales of photographs and knick
knacks.
Now comes the strange part of
Wyelh's life. He developed a taste for
oddities anil entered upon a career of
extravagance. A suite of rooms only
satisfied him, ami receptions twice a
week were his hobby. Here gathered
the choice spirits among the men and
women of culture about Washington,
and wit and wisdom marked the mo
ments of their mingling. His earnings
were spent in rare pictures, articles of
vertu, and bric-a brae. A few years ago.
however, he found that he was living
l>eyond his income, nnd then forsook
his expensive habits, distributed his tro
phies among friends 11 save storage, and
betook himself to a quiet abode. Three
weeks ago he was atllicted with pneu
monia, and after a week's illness the
earthlv career of "The Man in the
Dome ' had ended, ami he had been
called lip higher. He left no will, but
had prepared a statement of his elfect*.
Among the many articles is an allegor
ical picture named "Catholicity," which
i valued at sll**l. Innumerable bills
have appeared against his estate, nnd
weeks will be required to adjust the
differences. At the present time be has
a book in press entitled "The Federal
City," which may never see the light of
dav.
Samuel D. Wyeth was a brother of
•lohn Wyeth. the well known Philadel
phia druggist, on Walnut street near
Broad, and a close friend of the Camer
on family. It ha* nlwsys been believed
that the influer.ee of General Simon
| Cameron placed him in the dome, as
the Cameron* never forget a friend.
There was a scramble for Wyeth'*
stand soon nfter his death and one man
had the signatures of ten Senators to
his petition, but it did not avail. A
widow named Barnes has become "The
Woman in the Dome" for the (-resent
generation. .1. S. C.

The Atlantic express train east bound
on the New York, bake Fne and West
ern railroad was thrown from the trark
at 12 U> o'clock this morning just west
of Tioga by the breaking of a drivipg
axle on the engine. The lender of the
engine, the (-ostal car and two baggage
cars were burned with their contents,
excepting a (tortion of the baggage
which was saved. Postal clerka Joseph
Uedinger, Seybolt, Ingram and For,
end Messenger Brown of the United
State* F.xpress Company were burned
in their cars and their remains are
nearly unrecognizable. Two day coach

ed by fire, but as they had not upset the
passengers were all enabled to escape
: uninjured with the exception of some
receiving slight scratches. No injury
happened to the other day coaches or
j the sleeping eoarhes or their occupants.
After several hours delay a new train
was marie up and will arrive in New
York this evening. The bodies of the
unfortunate victims will be brought to
New York and delivered to their friends.

There is no man living who know*
.lodge Wood* a* I do. Our mother*,
when girl*, seventy year* ago, were
playmate*, our boyhood association*
wore very close and genial. When he
returned from Vale, helore ten year*
had elapsed, we were thrown together
in social and political friendship, I liv
ed in Columbus, and ran lor Congress iti
the district which included hi* home at
Newark, Ohio. it was in lX.'sfi, and
politics were in a wild transition slate,
lie had a Whig bias; my inclinations
were otherwise. At tliHt lime appro
hension of civil war filled the air. All
the gilt* ol oratory young Wood* pos
sessed and they were many, fluent,
and lull of energy and lire—came to my
aid a* candidate. We rescued the dis
trict from the new and growing party.
Again and again, iti following years,
and throughout every township and in
every school-house, we harangued to
gether for territorial sovereignty, peace,
compromise, and I'nion, lie was im
bued then with the spirit of the canons
and traditions of the Getnocracy.
When a portion of that | arty in hi*
country ran a lireckenridge ticket, in
Isn't, and nominated a Congressman lor
my special discomfiture, .fudge Wood*
was staunch by my side for Itougla*
and I'nion, and against the doctrine of
the "constitutional vigor'' to carry
slavery to the Territories. When the
red storm broke, having served iri the
Legislature and been chosen Speaker,
he raised his regiment and went to the
war. lie was physically courageous
and morally fearless. His theories of
Government may not have changed an
iota while he served in the Army; but
his partisanship had veered around to
Republican*. The war ended. He re
mained South. Hi* ap|iointment a*
circuit judge followed. With great ad
dres*. industry, ability and probity he
ha* worn the ermine in the Gulf States,
managing his personal relations with
such grace a* to disarm prejudice, ingra
liate himself with the bar, and give
authority to decision* upon matters of
great pith and moment.

lumber trade, is an extract froin the
I'/intnn /i<y>u'.Ar<in of -latiuary 12: '"There
has been a good trade during the year
I**o, at remunerative prices, but the
low waters prevented the getting in of

alliance will give the Gcmocrata a quo

this in view that they have recently
been raising cries against the absentees,

have enough member* present to paas

• hi'aoo, January 24.— One of the
boldest and most successful burglaries

occurred about 7 o'clock last evening in
the office of the South Chicago iron and
steel works, on Ashland avenue, near
Thirteenth street, but was not reported
by the police until 2 o'clock this morn

masked bursters bad forced the office
door, bound and gagged the janitor,
Charles Brooks, and while one of them
stood guard over him with a pistol the
other* driller! a hole in the safe, blowed
ppen the combination, and, bidding the

left, taking #I,OOO in five dollar gold
pieces and #1.50 in coin, together with

The above facts are given by Mr. Brooks,
but the police regard some things about
the afTair as sufficiently suspicious to
implicate him and have accordingly
arrested him and his son. He told

to give me the benefit of their prompt and
active co-operation. When we recollect
that over 7b,"00 vote* were cast for Gen
eral Hancock in the city of Philadelphia
alone, on the 2d of November, and in
Pennsylvania 400,000, and in the country
at large about five million of vole*, there
ought to be a readv and liberal response to
the scheme of an Independent I>emocratic
weekly paper of the highest class in Phil,
adelpbia.
The hour of Democratic defeat, procured
by open purchase of the suffrage, and by
deliberate intimidation of the dependent
citizen, should also be the hour of Demo
cratic education and preparation for the
great work of organization and action, in
