From our Regular Correspondent Washington, D. C, Oct. 30, 1881. It I were to attempt to devote thi letter to political goemip of the day it would contain nothing but a reiteration of speculations concern ing the new Administration and its policy which have been repeated over and over a :ain, with variations, 'during the pa.t three weeks. Nothing sew has been developed, partly be cause the rush to Yorktown took the A ife all out of Washington, and partly because the president keeps all his secrets and his plans to himtelf. No public man ever kept his own coun sel better than pres.dent Arthur. Gen. Grant need to be called the si lent man but he really had more confidences with bis friends or larger circle who were advised con cerning his purposes, and in that way definite information touching eontrg events came to be sooner diffused .Bat with Gen. Arthur matters have been kept decidedly and emphaticaly sub rosa. Even concerning his cai- inet appointments no matter how -many have been consulted, not more than two or three persons have known in advance what bis inten tions were. One of the strangest things in the -world is the fact that so many per sons come to Washington to get swindled by professional sharper. .As often as reports hat e been pub lished and people warned against the tolly of taking up with strangers or -chance acquaintances, visitors con tinue to get taken in and fleeced. Probably no city of its size in the -world has so many sharpers and con fidence men, because in no other city re the opportunities for plying their vocation so great. Visitors come here from all parts of the country in great numbers and in their rounds of the places of interest are readily rec ognixed as strangers. The well dressed and smooth tongued confi dence man selects his victim and crapes an acquaintance professing himself to be a visitor. Then from one step to another he leads him on, finds out his business and destination and generally winds up by getting possesion in one way or another of bis money and valuables. For a long time these gentry stationed them selves about the Smithsonian grounds and pretending to be guides would entice the sti anger into some out of the way place where confederates wrald appear and actually rob him if other expedients failed. Another favorite method has been to fall in with the stranger and pretending to know him or to hail from his locality suggest that they go together to see a statue unveiled at Arlington. Of course the statue unveiling is a de lusion bot it suffices to get the stran ger out of the city away from the police and generally ends in swind ling him at cards, or downright robbery by a gang ot accomplices who always turn up. One of the boldest of these swind ling games was successfully played this week, by which a countryman named Sparks from Virginia, on his way to Missouri to settle, was robbed ot $616 all the money he had. While waiting in the depot for a west boand train be was approached by CM of these sleek sharpers who open- rersauon professed to be a resident of the very town in Missouri where Sparks was going and making himself very agreeable succeeded in enticing his victim out for a walk and into a saloon. Here the inevitable confederate appeared and by a series of maneuvers the sharper succeeded in getting Sparks to get. the money which his wife had sewed up in her dress, just to lend it o him with which to win a wager with the new comer his own money being in the hands of an absent party. The result was what might have been expected 1 he confederate snatched tne money and made his escape. The detectives were appealed to and said they might be able to get "'part" of the money though up to this time they have not done so. A singular thing in connection with these robberies is the fact that our nolice never report them, and not one in four of those that occur re made public. We have, it is bcli ved a very corrupt detective force. They are accused of dividing profits with some of these swindlers, and circum stances certainly point that way It is very strange that they shoulc be able, as they said in the above case, to get part of the money and and not get it ail or catch the thieves. Washington is not a very large citjj, and the detect iues ought to know the crooks on sight, both those who live here and those who make occasional visits. Wit'i an honest, vigilant detective police it would" be very difficult for the perpetrators of such jobs as the above to escape. The National Republican in order to help the police detect the detectives keeps the following notice in its columns: iin . t fersons wnose residences are robbed in this city are requested to notify the National Republican at once, as the police department do not appear to want the matter made public, under the erroneous impress ion that secrecy leads to the detect ion of crime." l he only conviction growing out of these confidence games that I have ever heard of was that ot Hamhleton a three-card monte sharper, who en tited his victim over upon Virginia sou and fleeced him. The stranger pointed him out to an officer next day and he was prosecuted by the Virginia authorities, sentenced to five yeart imprisonment, and now t - ' ' a . languishes in the penitentiary at Richmond. He was well known here. His father is a prominent lob byist of "seeesh" proclivities, who named -one of his sons Wilkes Booth Hambleton. A TIN8E OF Ml ABOUT PUBLIC TWO-AHD-A-HALF-DOLUR CHRISTIANS. There are a great many people in their religion that remind us of "Uilfcle Phil," a pious old darkey of the old times in Texas. Well, Phil was a fer- vtnt Christian with a great gift of prayer, lie attended all the Saturday night prayer-tneetins on the neighboring plantations, and could pray louder and longer than any of the brethern. But Phil had one weakness, he dearly loved money, and different from the ne gro generally, he loved to hoard it Near by us lived a man who, not troub led by any scrapie, would pay Phil 1 to work in his field on Sundays. One Sunday night as Phil came home late accosted him with : "Where have you heemPhili "Oh. just knockin about, massa." "You have been working for Miller. Well, you, see massa, the old fellow is in needs, and he jest showed me a sil ver dollar, and I jest couldn't stand it.' 'Ain't you afraid the devil will get you for breaking the Sabbath?" Phil scratched bis head a minute and said : "I guess the Lord'U acuse me massa." "No, He says, remember the Sab bath day and keep it holy." Phil went off looking sober, and it was not long before I heard his voice in fervent prayer back of the'tiam, and so I thought I would slip down near enough to hear, "Oh Lord!" I herad him aay, "I have this day ripped and tea red, cussed and sweared at them confounded oxen of Millers, and jest broke the sabbath day. Oh, Lord, please forgive me please foagive, for you knows Fa noth ing but a miserable heathen, anyhow. If you'll jest forgive this time, I'll nev er do it again as loHg I live,' cepting he gives me $2.50 a day." At this point I was obliged to beat a hasty retreat, bnt I am thinking that poor Unci Phil is not the only $2.50 Christian in the world. Lonisville Christian Observer Mrs. Lucy A. Brisco, an old resident of Pacific county. W. T., died suddenly a few days since. Her son and his wife, who Wealt i and finally influence have as yet not done much in this country toward bringing out or insuring a career for public men. The son of a Lord and the heir to his title does not find much difficulty in obtaining .a seat in the House of Commons. He is brought forward by his friends. The family influence, wealth and social position are enlisted for his success. It is a rare circumstance in the United States that a son suc ceeds his father as a member of Con gress, or gets there at all. The poverty ot Henry Clay, as a boy, did not hinder him from being one of the most conspicuous public charac ters the country has produced. It was always reckoned a circumstance which made for his popularity that he had been a poor hoy, without family influence or powerful friends. Lincoln knew the poverty and pri vation of frontier life. When he be came a conspicuous public character it pleased the multitude that he had once split rails, and had from the humblest condition worked his way slowlv and patiently to success. If wealth and family influence had been enlisted early on his side, probably no Abraham Lincoln wou d hav made such a figure in the history of the counry. While there is no merit in ea. ly poverty, and it is often in the way aa a formidable obstacb the mass of the people always like to contrast it with the better condi -non which any famous man has finally reached nv hard work. Pres ident Johnson did not learn to read until he had attained his majority, and he was proud of the fact that he had worked for years as a tailor. tl mm time he was about as un likely a man to become President ol the United States as any in the na tion. The turn of for-line was a striking one. Cicero boasted that he had held a succession of offices as soon as he had arrived at the legal a.e. Johnson boasted that when he bad arrived at a similar age he was a tailor, and claimed that he was a good one.. Grant had a military education, and an un prosperous career for m .ny years as a military man. For that reason be threw up his command and learned the mysteries of tanning leather. lie wan glad to get a living by close attention to the business. of the shop. He certainly would not have been selected then as one likely to have the most famous military career of any man in die country. Grant in a tannery and Grant receiv ing the homage, of Kings as one of the greatest and most successful Captaius of the age, are the extreme phases in the life ol .this remarkable man. Meatier wealth nor family influence helped him at all to a suc cessful career. Garfield was glad to earn a few dollars a month by manual labor, and happy that he could save some part of it for his education. When the future president was teaching school he was glad for uch i n oppor t unity to become useful to others. Arthur had his school experience, and was ghd to earn a few dollars in the winter seafon by teaching school in Northern New York. The late Chief Justice Waite went to Cincinnati as a ltw student with hardly money enough to pay a mouth's expenses. David Davit managed to get through a western college, but he was as p or as a church mouse, and went to the fron tier to practice law, because he sup posed a poor young man would have a better chance to get along in the world. Stephen A. Douglas went to Illinois for the same reason. He taught school as a means tor procu ring enough to help him along with his own education. In England, the wealth and the family influence, which would have been used to push the political for tunes ot young men, would have been a hindrance in the cases cited at home. Wealth never has greater potency than. now in this country. Bui it does not insure conspicuous areers for young men. It cannot PERSECUTING THE JEWS. The European papers contain details of the recent attacks on the Jews in southern Russia. The Jew ish quarters in several towns wen pillaged, many of the houses, destroy ed, some lives were taken, and most of the poor Hebrews were driven across the border into Austria, nearly all being reduced to want and suffer ing. When the Russian government finally awoke to the situation, troops were ordered to the scene of riot and peaeti was soon restored. The ringleaders of the riot were arrested, tried and sentenced to imprisonment , further aggression was guarded against, and the Jews were accorded more protection than they bad pre vionsly received. Subsequently a census of the Jews was ordered, and to avoid it, sixty thousand of the;e people turned their ey s toward Spain as a refuge from further trouble, and King Alfonso has been rep irted as sending them a message of welcome to bis realm, should thev eome. The Golos, ths most out spoken paper of St. Petersburg, has published accounts of the riots re ferred to, giving a fair view of the situation. Of the scenes at Elizabeth grad it says: Many of the rioters went about shouting: "As the Jews killed Christ, so have they murdered our Czar." The peasants faced the advancing troops, bared their breasts, and cried: "Shoot!" The soldiers lowered their arms. Amnn.' tlier wild reports that had been circulating was one that the police had been bought by the Jews for 500 loubles. The word went around that Jews might be beaten and wounded, but not killed. The mob seems to have been largely composed of peasants, who still, in a great measure, retain their almost idolatrous affection for the Czar, and are not Nihilists. The Jews, being oppressed in Russia, naturally favor any party which seems to aim at the reorganization of the eonlroling system, ami have con'ributed to the Nihilist ranks seeral of the most daring conspi rators and leaders. The Vienna Neue I'vesie says of Rievil: The entire bazar of this place, con tainming over six hundred shops was plundered. The merchandise was loaded upon wagons an 1 driven to neighboring villages. What could not be carried off was t irn, thrown iuto stream, or trampled in the dirt More than four hundred l ouses be longing to Jews are destroy -1 to gether with their furniture; and 1,170 families, comprising some 6,000 souls, have been reduced to beggary. I have not heard of many deaths, but the wounded and injured are numer ous. Men were robbed m the streets with impunity. Watches were t iken out of pockets, and li.igs from fin gers. The wave of ant -Jewish b'gury that has swept, over Germany and Russia touched other c ttries more lightly. Its course is doubles almost run. Such events as have occurred in Russia are a reproach to the boast ed enlightenment of this age. Their recur n ie is not likely, even in that co.uitry. KERRY VIIURD. With reference enterprises, which work out the "succession," or desig nate this or that young man as in the line for political promotion. The poor young man will fight the battle much as others haye fought it for the ast hundred years. The democratic idea is still cherish'.Hj that the old and hard road, where poyerty besets the young man, is a very good one o travel.
