LITTLE DONS IN THK 1I01SS. Washington, Dec. 3. The opening of ' and that the coast survoy be transferred the short et'saion of the house was pic-. from the treasury to the navy depart turesque in a way, but devoid of interest-1 ment. That a surplus supply of ord- ing features. The victorious republicans and defeated democrats exchanged greetings and gave and took thrusts on the result of the recent political battle with much animation, but through good nature. The galleries were crowded and half the desks on the floor were smoth ered with flowers. Onex-Speeker Reed's desk was a magniflcant floral ship. On the card attached to it was inscribed : "Advocate, as yon have always, pro tection and American labor, and the ship will guide you into a heaven of peaceful waters." On the desk of Linton, of Michigan, was a large floral school bouse, the com plimant of an A. P.' A. organization in acknowledgment of his championehio of the public schools Reed entered the chamber a little be fore noon and was enthusiastically cheered. His face wreathed in smiles, and he bowed right and left as he picked his way to the cloakroom, where friends congratulated htm as next the speaker. A round of applause greeted Speaker Crisp as he entered. The other leaders on both sides were given enthusiastic receptions by their respective partisans. Wilson and Burrows were also particu larly well received. There was no chance in the first day's proceedings (or reference to the elections, so the actual proceedings were dull and uninteresting. Several new members were Bworn in, and, after a long wait, the president's message was read. Although it was listened to with interest, it was con cluded without a mark of Approval or disapproval. Washington, Pec. 3. As the bands ol the clock pointed to 12, Speaker Crisp entered the house chamber and ascended the rotrura amid applause. With Bevoral bard bangs of the gavel the speaker restored order, and the second session of the 53d congress began. Rev Dr. Bagley, chaplain of the house, in yoked a divine blessing, and then the roll waa called.

The presidents merwaife was one ot the longest ever delivered in Congress, and covered a large number of subjects. On the foreign relations of the United States, he is gratified to report the most harmonious relations witb all nations of the earth. Under thia head be gave notice of the abrogation of the re ciprocity treaty with the government of Brazil bv the latter country and says nothing as to future trade relations with that country. Announces a new treaty witb China for the further regulation of Chinese immigration. Of bis efforts to bring about arbitration between China and Japan to settle their difficulties he trusts that it may be successful as the present war is injuring jar growing com mercial Interest witb the two countries. In view of their wonderful strides in civi lization, he recommends that Japan be of retaliation against our duty on sugar i joint protectorate with England and Germany over tha Samoan Wands as i American interests in tlie islands are j not suilicient to justify the expense. Of our relations with the Hawaiian islands I he makes no mention, merely stating 'that be had reorganized the republic j lately founded. In his review of the work of the vari ous departments the president confines himself to reproducing extracts from the reports of cabinet officers. He recommends that the army be concen trated and that the smaller posts be abandoned and commends the eff icing of the army and its work in the late strike. For the department of justice be recommends that an additional judge be appointed for each circuit. He asks that the navy be increased by more bat tleships and torpedo boats; that more lapid piomotions be given naval officers ; nance be manufactured suitable to arm our fast merchant ships witb in case of emergency. In view of the fact that the i postollice department has been running at a loss he recommends that the rate on much of the matter now sent as second class be raised. In addition to increas ing the revenue it would rectify an in justice now perpetrated in allowing novels and trashy advertisfng matter gotten tip as alleged newspapers and sent at newspaper rates. In the work of the Interior department he recommends that the price on timber land be raised; 'lhatthe public lands be suiveyed by government surveyors under the direct control of the depart ment instead of by contract sis now ; That a court of Appeal be established to decide all land contests and that regis ters and receivers be given authority to compel witnesses to attend in cases be fore them; that agents on the Indian reservations be exclusively army officers and the allotments in severalty to the Indians be held back until they are sufficiently civilized to take care of themselves. On pensions be makes no recomendations. In the agricultural department he is opposed to the indis criminate distribution of seeds. He ad vocates some changes In the present tariff law and sanctions Carlisle's plan of banking and of currency. This bank ing plan being a cross between the pres ent national banking system and that of the old state banks. Mullno Maslnn. Mulino, Dec. 4 I presume as the reader glances at the heading of this column, he or she may wooder if the Mulino correspondent has been devoured by the bard times. Some may say that the times are beginning to pick up a little but we find tlietn quite close in this section of the country. Neverthe less we are blessed witb an abundance of eatables and what a glorious country we would have, had we just a little more money or some such circulating medium to take the place of money, that would loosen the reins of poverty now bonded on so many people of our conntiy. Cleveland and his congress convenes and adjourns (to go fishing) action suc ceeding session, and how much better are we for that? Xone dear reader to my mind. How in the name of com mon sense can yon and I tie benefitted by congress issuing bonds 'o borrow monev with when the gold is taken And locked op in the vaults, And kept there to pay interest on the bonos that have been issued before to pay Interest on the thin interest bearing bonds that may bj due. At the present time the treasury is nearly empty. What will they do? Issue more bonds of course. No danger of them passing a bill throngh congress te issue greenbacks that could be circulated through the states by the much needed road improvement. No indeed this would not be of intrinsic value they say. But suppose we had fifty thousand dollars to spend in Clacka mas county of such money, bow much each and every one of us .would be benefitted hy this act of congress. We would have good roads, assuredly we would have better times. Never will we have good times until laboring people get work and get pay for the same. Then and only thes we will have good times.
