WASHINGTON LETTER*
[From ourrerolar correspondent ] i
Washington. Sept. 5, 1JS93. j
President Cleveland never work
ed hrrder since he became Presi
dent than he has done sincie his;
return to Washi^on, In ja^ai-i
tiorr to his desk work, x>f itself a
task for an ordinary, man, he has
held important conferences J witi?
every member of -his cabinet upon
matters pertaining to fteir several
departments; with niinjeWms Sena
tors on the outlook Tor therpaL
sage of the silver repeal ' hilUL a5$
with chairman Wilson, of the Hai*<e
Ways and Means committee upon
the new tariff bill, public hearings
upon which were today begun by
that committee, to be continued
antil the" 20 *inst. *In short, Mr
Cleveland has, after his, vacation,*
taken op his numerous public
duties with the vigor which has al
ways characterized his administra
tion of public affairs. To seeihim
talk with him. two minutes wrillfor*
vince any man that the talk about
his healih being undermined and
broken is arrant nonsense. He
was overworked; nee led rest; iand
now that he has had itjs all righc.
ognin.
It is now acknowledged by the
staunchest opponent of the uncon
ditional repeal of the. purchasing
clause of I he Sherma!^, silver law
that the opposition to* repeal is
gradually melting away. A ma
jority of the Senators till vote for
repeal when a vote can be reached
and the only delay that can arise
after all the Senators- have been
given an opportunity to express
their sentiments will be by filibust
ering. To what extent filibuster
ing jwill be carried is not yet ap
parent, bnt it is certain that q
number of Senators whtrjare strong
ly opposed to unconditional repeal,
snch men as Morgan, of Alabama,
and Feffer, of Kansas. ? -will refuse
to aid in filibustering to prevent
a vote, and Senator Vorhees, who
is in charge of Die repeal bill, has
given notice of his intention to use
extreme measures, to force a vote
upon the bill, as soon as it became
apparent that the, debate is being
prolonged for no other purp >se
than U? stave off a vote. It is aow
thought by those who favor repeal
that a vote can be reached in two,
or at the^utside three, w?&ks. The
gamblers are n so ally good judgeB
of the way the wind bloft&Mid they
are offering odds th^d thepiut^S as
ing clause <.f the Sherrk/m law wilj
btf repealed before the first of Oc^
tober. I saw cne bet ,of &100 to
B40 made, the gambler taking the
$100 end,, and la:er offering to givej
fonr to one up to $1000, without
takers. $U!1, it is certain that the
bill will not pass the Senate with-!
cut a bitter struggle, which will
probably be one of the most mera
oirablCv in the history of the Sen-]
ate. this struggle is expected to
hegir/wilh a continuous session of
the Senate, when the attempt will
be made to wear out the opposition'
and thus force a vote.
| The House is still debating "the
proposed new rnies reported from
the committee on rules lasfco week,
and until they have been adopted
no bills can be introduced, except
Jnj unanimous consent, that is sei
ri>*m given. Among the most im
portant amendments whjch, the
p(>u8e has Already added to the
rules isihat giving the committee
on i Coinage and the committee run
Banking Vid Cu-renpy the same
privilege ttaat the committee on
Appropriations and that on Ways
and Means have had ? that of re
porting bills at any time. During
the debate ex-Speaker Reed has
continuously sought to make dis
cord among Democrats, but up t<^
this time he has succeeded in do
ing nothiug except making an ex
hibition of himself. While the
Democrats have differences amon?
"themselves 39 to s^me of the rule's
reported, they are. able to settle
w?m, and will settle them without
Reed's interference.
There is very little talk new
ahost the extra session being a,
short one. There is so much lobe
done that nearly all of the members
hare about, come to the conclusion
that it is beUer to stay through the
fall than to bs compelled to stay
here through the entire Summer
next year. Something has got to
be done to increase the revenues
of the Government, in order to
avoid a 'big deficit at the end of
the present financial year, and it
is-fc&ely* that after thie repeal bill is
fjisjtfaed of President Cleveland
wfcl have some recommendation tc
make on the subject. U\is his
wi?h,j and also that of Secfetaiy
Carlisle, ' that the nee^s of the
Treasury shall not be^mixed up
with the silver question.
Mrs Cleveland and Baby Ruth ?
soon to be promoted to Mi9s
Cleveland ? returned with the Presi
dent, and the whole family is now
comfortably domiciled at the, White
House. Mrs Cleveland is--w*ll, and
looking splendidly.
Seuator Dolph made a speech
in tUe Senate Saturday afternoon
in favor of his bill apropriating
?500,000 to carry out the provis
ions of the Geary ami-Chinese law
that hardly made pleasing reading
for the new Chinese minister who
the same da}* presented his -cred
entials to Secretary Gresbam.

Though many of the men who fought In
defeiiae !of our principles fell upon the
fipld of jbattle, ancl though we failed to
conquer the Xorth und the united world,
yet our principles live, i and are toda>
recognized by the civilized workl. In
tlie Blair Mil, in the force hill and in the
Iowa original package decision, the^prin
ciple of State '8 rights wa? recognized as
trpe, principles of government. The
principled advocated by Jefferson as
against these upheld by Hamilton have
as
to
our Southern soldiers is without par
in history. Father Ryan gavB that
dot

our great leader,
Was the war a failure because slavery
fell ? I say that in the providence of God
slayery wis abolL?.ed, The war gave us
an independence of thought, of feeling,
of action, and dignified labor, which we
could ne\^er otherwise have obtained.
Was your sacrifice in%aio ? The heroism
of
allel
although graves dot our land, a- land
without graves is a land without mem
ories, and a land without memories is
not worth preserving.
We are a better and purer people for
our war arid sacrifict. The South gave
toethe woHd men who are regarded as
the highest, noblest ex emplara of man
hood to be found in history. There were
Lee and Jackson and Albert Sidney
Johnson. Lord Wolseley said he knew
only two heroes ? Lee ancFCninese Gor
don. ; If a people is to be judged by her
leaders, thfen tfc$ South is high in the
regard of tin ; world. Moreover, she be
gan this fig ty without a ship or a factory
for miking implement* of war; and but
for the railway svst^ms of the^North we
I '
would have defeated thern and tlis united
world; . ! ?
The Sonthi gave to tlici world the Mer
rimac, first the ironclad, andthefhst
torpedo bos t., Then the defense of Fort
Snmter showed to the world that. the true
system of defense was not in rocks and
mortar ? but in sand. Then, de&pite the
fact that Gefmany, the great leader of
military ^thought, used the close rank
mode ?f defense in battle, the South
demonstrated the fact that the open
mode/ was coijrect. Lee confronted Grai?t'
railinhis 50,000 'men two or three feet
apart, and tjms held lum in check with
three times it hat number. It is a glori
ous thing, to btelong to su;h a countrv;

X / i
I have be?n struck with three things
in reviewing the result ot the wai^. Only
thirty odd yearsi since the war, and yet
our South is carrying the Presidential
elections and shaping the government of
the nation. Our State has recuperated
rapidly. She has progressed in all re
spects, and her ions today are ready to
strike hands with their late enemies and
strive for still more glorious achieve
ments. Ours is the only defeated peo
ple in a civil war, in all history who hold
such meetiugs as these and erect monu
ments to their dead.
In conclusion, let me urge you to.rtill
be true to your country and your God ;
and as we all pass away, may we ' 'cro^s

trees," in eternity, where the conscious
ness of duty performed on earth is the
greatest consolation.
Gen. Kennedy then directed his re

he was cheered to the echo.
