OVU TTASniXGTOX LETTER. (Yreas oar Regular Correspondent. The parlor and corridorsurf the White 7ovse trhich have leen rcntl j decora, ted and refurnished by Louts C. TifTany cfe Co. of New Yorkt were opened to-daj for inBpecttort.br raemKrs of the prtrssi. The design! of Mending colors present a tight regal appearance, and all of the fail ing ftre of the old rooms have been obliterated bj beautiful and charming fleets. The East room is covered bj an Axmintster English carpet of simple de eHrn snd effect, and is otherwise the rue as I fore. The octagonal Blve Room presents an oriental appearance; the al1sv ceiling, furniture, and carpet are Wf pals blue, with changeable silk cur tains, mosaic trimming &lout the man tle, seven-burner mosaic Bcencwi about the wall and raised metal designs and tttets of arms encircling the ceiling. The TU-d Uoora is replete with gold trimmed mirrors in mosaic designs, red garnet Velvet furniture, gold and copper Btar- ueMnea ceiling una terra-cotta walls, Vith piano of the same hue. The State dining-raom adjoining is finished in olie 1lgteen, and a door has been added lead ing to th conservator. The hall ap proaching the Blue Room is fiuished in ,gold and elivt, with brilliant gold .al to ve and collotsal pots of pa'ma. The changing effects are ouaaerous and be yond description. The Senate yesterday not only de clined by a vote of 36 to 25 to take a frectes from DecemWr 22 to January 3, fcmt declined also t give its consent to the holiday the House had voted to it . "lf. Mr. Garland took thoposition that if ths Uobm thought it could afford U adjourn it should be allowed to do so, though the Senate, in his opinion, could fcoi. It ie evident that the older heads f the upper house have comprehended the meaaing of the rebuke uttered by the people mu the 7th of November bet ter titan the statesman in the other wing of the Capitol have.. The first business taken up after the virtuous votin here Mentioned was the civil-service bilL The whisky and tobacco interests $iav been largely represented here ever Cilice the beginning of this session of Congress. The whisky people clamored with vigor for the paasage of the bill ex tending sbo time in which whisky ca feraeia in bond. The tobacco peo ple went rebate equal in amount to smy reduction which may be made in he tag that article, and to-day both he Senate finance committee and the ways and assans committee of the House toad f vera tie reports on the subject. There it considerable opposition to the oreeure sl, bat probably not enough to defeat it. There is a strong pressure roua all the tobacco producing States in favor of the absolute repeal of the tobac co tax, but it is pretty well assured that this cannot sarry. The sugar men were wlso thick arond the room of the way a fcnd oseae committer to-day while the consideration of that portion of the re Jovt relative to sugar was under consid eration, and many were not satisfied with the action of the committee. la hU anual report of Pension Com finiaaionej Dudley state that of more than wo million of soldiers who enlisted du ring the late war peusions have been ap plied for by, or on account of, only twenty pix per cent There are one million of these soldiers living aow. Rooking over the wide) expanse of country from the At Jantie to the Pacific it must seem to the thoughtful observer that the greatest xasrtalitv during and since the war was an oner th nrit..n A - i r v private is partly seen now, the eonviction is forced upo the mind that all the privates are sleeping under mossy mounds and in un known graves. The million of veterans who survive are oncers, each and all, front captain to general. A lieutenant even if great rarity. The United States Supreme Court have 'affirmed the constitutionality of the law nder which General N. McCurtia was jviciea ana aemed the petition for a writ ot haVa corpus. The Jeannttte inquiry progressed but little, and with 4he exception of documentor evidence no more witnesses ean be examined un-U-thrttivj5 gf tyte-.rwk tjf tha Gar?. The jury in ihe Star route trial has been completed and Mr. Bliss closed his argu ment for the prosecution to-day. There is more or 1 less consternation among the clerks in .the departments at Washington. The discovery has been made that a law of; nearly fifty years ago will prevent tbe dosing of the de partments at noon "during the Christ mas holidays, as has been customary for a number of years. It is remarkable how everything f eems to conspire Against the happiness of thegovemment clerks. August. GOTHAM (GOSSIP. Metropolitan JTeicsjwpcr Changes.

"With the firat of J the year there will be someimportant changes in ihe. man agement ef several of the leading metro politan journal. First of all Mr. John Kelly'i name will be printed on the edi torial page of the i'tar a editor. Mr. Kelly will not write much. He is more of a man of action than wcids, but ho believes that the value of the property of the paper, of which ho is the princi pal owner will be enhanced. At ' the same time he will be able to direct all the machinery of his party as vigor ously as lefori and ahouid he f ill out with the Governor or with the Mayor, he will be able to criticise and at tack them from behind the shield of his pajSer, and while able, to inflirt serious wounds remain invulnerable under the concealing aid of the editorial " we". Anvbody who bclicfts that Mr. Kelly is losing his grip oa ailairs, and that Tammany Hall has seen, its best days, will tlnd himself sadly mistaken.- His baud has not yet lost its cunning ncr its arm iu strength. Young Mr. England, I am informed is to retire from ihe businea? manager ship and publisiiership of the World on the proximo, Mr. Speed the 1st present managing editor of the paper, ia to take hold of the. fortunes of the paper betodes retaining his present, position. The World has been making frantic f forfa right along to " hooru itself up," but aomehow its efforts do not. m-eiu to bo productive of the desired results. It, panders to the society world but on ly amust-s by its erudite profundity on matters of etiquette? and its intiui.Ue t.; miliarity with the family tree of ev ; . visiting foreign noblemai'.. Its ti:ifti -partment however is admirably inun- uge ly a man or great experience aim knowl-de of that important branch of sporting literaturr;. j The World in sum mer is the vada mecum c every racing i man. j Considerable interest has been aroused not alone journalistic but in wider circles by the announcement that Mr. Connery had resigned the managing editorship of the Herald, on account of ill health, and that Mr. Flvnn, the managing editor of Mr. Bennett's evening paper, the Tele gram had succeeded; him. Mr. Fiynu is a good news man. j lie i3 not strictly speaking a cultured! person as Mr. Con nery is. The refinements thought, manner of action Are wanting in him. He came into the Jerald establishment as an otfice boy and jworked his way up. His mind however jU vigorous, active and enterprising, a&d although he has the reputation of being excitable and rather a strong master of Btrong lan guage, yet he is very popular among the journalistic fraternity at larg, and that after all is one of the main necessities for a man in his position, since it redu ce the danger of being ' beaten" on an important piece of, news, almoct tc a minimum. I am informed however by some one in a position to know that Mr. Country's retirement means no more thaa a six month's leave of absence. As everybody knows Mr. Benne'.t is ac activejy engaged in the formation of a new cable Jine, to break up the monop oly of the Webtern Union. Now Mr. Bennett has for years rarely taken Any new step without eousulting Mr. Con nery, and in this cable scheme, which is the most gig.intic undertaking he Jia aa yet started on he means to have Mr. Connery's assistance; Mr. Connery goes to Europe shortly and then will r.tart on his new field -of labor. The amount of money spent at'drink- ing bars in this, city .s 6imply enormous, aad J wjU giyrt ycrp art DfrfAnce which i will give you an idea as to its extent. The proprietor of tvo of the richest bar rooms down town, places which do sim ply a day trade and cater only to the custom of business men, has been in the habit for a number of years of di-itiibu-ting the entire gross receipts on the day before Christmas to his employees There are thirty-two of them. He com menced in 1878 when the receipts foot ed up $1,183.99. The next year they rose to $2,562.60. In I860 they a mounted to $3,375.15. Last yeat thry jumped up to $5,163.39, and this year they reached the snug sum $5,850.87. These amounts inetude the proceeds of sales of cigars, drinks and liquor by the lottle, which ii always heavy immedi ately before the ho-iday. When one thinks. that the bulk of this amount comes in in the hape of sums ranging from fifteen to forty cents for drinks, an idea of the enormous amount of tippling can h formed. Of course the proprietor of this place does not take in nearly $0,000 every day. It is safe to take off 60 per cent, for the extra trade brought by people anxious to swell the receipts tf the employees. But even at this th average receipts of each place are $1,000 a day, 'which is not a bad business. Besides this there are at least a score of drinking places in town where the daily receipts vary from $400 to $1,000 a day. Del monico' down town establishment on some days takes in a:s much as $1,500 over the bar. Thii place is a perfect theiuonieter of th. etate of the money market When times are dull, the. bro kers are dull and poor and have little money to ppeud. But, when, they are excited, and " the boy" make m ey nothing is too good for thetu, and Del monico invariably gets the cream of their good fortune. The Astor House aver ages $700 ft day year in and year out and does the best bar trade of any hotel in the city. Last Tuesday was a day of terrors in the United Statos Circuit Court, where Judge Benedict, usually one of the. most fatherly and benign old gentlemen in i i ted sentences on forgers, swindlers, thieves and other criminals which were worthy of the severest days of Recorder Hackctt. Among'. those sentenced whs Eugene Landsberg, who was doomed to five years imprisonment at hard labor for perjury. His case was a peculiar one. He was arretted on a charge of passing counterfeit money. He cleared himself of the charge but somehow man aged to arouse the ill feeling of Special Agent Druinmond. While, testifying in his own behalf Lnudsberg swore that lie hid never been arrested befere. A num ber of reporters were present at the ex- j animation. JJruiumona turned to one ! ef them quite a draughtsman, while Landsberg was testifying. " Draw this you said he pointing to the defendant. The reporter guilessly did ko, Drum mond had the picture, magnified and photographed and had copies sent to the Superintendent of every prison, and re form institution in the country with the request to write hiiu whether Landslerg had ever been an inmate of one of these institutions. Not long after a reply came from the State Prison in Trenton that Landsberg had ence worn particol ored trowsers in that establishment. A charge of perjury was made and proven and the poor fellow had to pay dearly for his past sin. At last he has left us, the apostle f jestheticism. Oscar Wilde came like a lion and went like m lamb, but bo car ried away with him to his home across the Atlantic, enough pleasant reminis cences of his sojourn in this country in the shape of American dollars. His year's visit cost this lenighted country about $10,000. Hon. Edward Martin presented Char lie B! kesley an elegant silver watch and chain, and A. H. Blakesley a gold chain and locket the ether day. It is an equal honor to the donor and recipient. Mr. Martin is whole-souled, kind hearted gentleman and Charlie and hU father are some of the most accommodat ing people we ever knew. Such people get come up with once and awhile with a fine watch and chain or something the sort when the' least expect it. John F. Caples receives a very lauda tory notice for his ability as Prosecuting Attorney, from the Enterprise. T. A. McBride said it was hard to follow so able, a man; but Tom seems to fill the the bill spite ot his modest distrust of his own powers, At last election Ca ples ran far ahead of his ticket. There are qui to a number of drum- mers in taw;v 1 LOCAL Abroad there is a curiosity to know what kind of a place St. Helen is ' It contains 400 people or so, counting ev rything of every gender. It is the Coun ty Seat of Columbia County, which' lies between Multnomah and Clatsop Coun ties. Washington County borders it on one side and the Columbia River on th other. The County contains 2500 in habitants. There are some small places besides St. Helen; Columbia City and Rainier. Westport is near the border, in Clatsop County. There is a sawmill at St. Helen, one at Rainier, one at Scappoose and one at Pittsburgh in Ne halem Valley. There are some canner ies in the lower edge of the County. There are some Cedar Mills besides in the vicinity of Rainier. St. Helen has a sawmill, four stores, one blacksmith shop, two hotels, one or two larding houses, two saloons, two lawyer oflic:s, one shoemaker fhop, one carpenter shop, one doctor's otfice, one patent bed-spring manufactory, two sur veyors' office?, one Notary Public's office, Sheritf ii County Clerk's offices, a dress maker's shop, one furniture manufactory on Milton Creek, one printing-office, the Columbian, two quarries, one Church, the M. E , on the hill. There is in it oc casional 1 reaching. Episcopd, Methodist, and Christian. There is Masonic Lodie, a Good Te-nplars' Lodge, and liand if Hope. There arc two livery stables, two butcher &bops and one or two wh houses There is a Public School and a Private School. Also s Post-office aud some wjharves. Lots of rocks and some backbiters. St. Helen is connected with the rest of the world by nemeroos steamboats, the Ltitona, Manzanillo, Jostph Kellogg, Toledo, V. G. Heed nd Mountain Que an. There are innumerable barges, fiat-boats towing steamers all tie time passing be sides hi.il vessels and ocean steamers. In the vicinity of Columbia Cuy are extensive coal, iron and paint mines. Also back of St. Helen are extensive de posits of iron ore. V A certain set in town went to the Clatskanie, they found there logger who had )o.-.t some log.. They went around among the neighbors and in quired how he was financially, they in duced some of those who had worked for him to 'fasten on his teams, and so forth. Then they cniehaek to St. -Helen and slept sweetly, thinking they hail j nride one man to fall. Said man went to Portland, got any amount of tunds lie wanted. Then his St. Helen friends arose tore thir hair and wept bitterly, saying, "ala ! alas !" and looked around for some other man on which to exer cise their earniverous disposition. Some of the boys in town make a practice of tormenting Chinamen. They stand a chance of getting stabbed, as Chinamen when once aroused, are furi ous. Pareuts should train their child ren letter; and learn them to leave men and animals alone, and mind their own business. I a subscription could be started for a reform School it would be a good idea. It might save some from seeing their children ve;r a hemp cravat. The Columbia City LumWiing Co. consists of Win. Dunlvir, Win. Lowe, C. J. McDougal. 11. W. Ogilbee, and Hugh M.

He reports that David West lost $8,000 by the fire and Frank Lovell lost all he had. Frank Lovvll and hia young bride were living over the store. Mrs. Lovell at the time of the fire was visiting her father, Mr. William Adams. Mr. W Adams' eldest eon fought all through the Rebellion and is living in Wyoming Territory. Socrates Tryon brought op a eraxy man yesterday, a Norwegian working for him in a logging camp. The man's name is Peterson. He has been trying to fao inate all the women and some of the men in the vicinity of Green's Point with an accordeon, making night hideous by his discordant music. He ie not a sheep-herder, but affected the same way. Byron Daniels was married last night to Miss Rosin a Jaggy of Vancouver. Mr. and Mis, W. B.
