A Powder4th7. A powder mill is not in the least like other mills. Instead of one great building, it is com posod of many rough looking little sheds, sometimeti as -rnrthy as seventy or eightg. These. taze 'long distances apart, 'epartte4 by denso woods and great mounds of earth, so that if one "house" -is 'blown tip the oth 'ors will eson'po'n like fate. Of somp the wAll-are bhilt very strong, and the roofs alo very slight, in the hope that if Mi lexplosidh happens, its force will be expended upward only. Other hiseos have enormous roofs of inasoni" covered with earth ; thb roofN of others are tanks alhays kept full of liatter. The edtistat dditor, IMstparable 'from the work, odd be ;gradually in6rbased wore there not atrit rules always enforced. No cautious visitor can be more oarofhl than the work Tndh bhoiselVes, for th6y -know, if dhx'Vl6sion 14)pts, 'it will be cor tain, ih6tant death to them. So no -lights or fires are evbr allowed ; no one lives nearer to the rnills than can be helped ; some of the buildings arMo carpeted with skins an(d the floors are alivays kept flooded with an inch of *NMtoi; and in front of every door is a shallft tank of water. 13efore entering, every person rust put ott rubber shoes ad walk throtgh the water, tor the nailt in boot hoolA might-ctrike a spaA from a bit of gravel, *hi6h might explode a single ,grain df ganpowdor, and canso wide. pread disaster. So the rAbber shoos worn in the mills are 'hover worn 6lsfwhiro. Then> too, everg one is ex1ects6a to kdop his ivit'm about him ; there is novor any loud talking or laughter, and no one over thinks of shouting. Yet, with all this extrome care, explosions sorhe times occur, and then there is sol klom any one left to tell howit hap A1o u iadies eikployed in the government office at Washington two are grand nieces of Daniel Webster, pretty girls, and gracfAl., with eyes like gazelles, and 'hdancig feet," girls whom society loves to acknowledge as ornaments, but Who sipport themselves. Chief Ju~stice .tanecy had three grand daughters dependent 1dpon themselves. The governmein p rided for them until home relatik settled upon them an income. Two great grand daught.ere of Oliver Wolcott, the addoud secretary of the treasury, diudpied places under the govern neh\ as did two relativos of Govern or h1atof Whoi Was secretary of State and wams General flyer's old:. est daughter~ r#bived a governmdat position, aftel' the brave old oficer's death, and held it till she died. Her younger sister floW occupies her place. Miss Caniilla Webb, whose blonde beauty it is an aetutl pleas ure even to remember, was carried from the treasury department to grace a foreign home, as the Counte ess Von Harvre. Army and navy officers by scores leave their wives and daughters no legacies to the care of that government which they havo spent their lives in serving. A FR1JAND of Coniclinig sags "Mir.

If Mr. Tildeni had been inaugttrated the Rlepublican party would haye gaitled strength dlu'ig his anisrton; fin or Mr. Haves it cannot survive the ef fects of'the great crime with which it is weighted. These are not my views alone; every honest Republican thinks as I do. I have not heared the Senator say a word upon this Eubject." From this revelation it would appear that the Democracy had a narrow and signal deliverance. The President we elected was to break us up, and the President who was not.elected bumt ipaugurated is consolidating our power and "bust ing" his own machine I A $T.
