Yt there are 10 many who do hold positions under the Government and at ths sits time do more or leis newspaper work that it is hard to count them. There is, to o. another reason why it is eo d'flicalt to coant thera. The reason is about tha tarns that xaade it di dealt for the Irishman to coant his pig. because it frl&ked about eo.

Tnere are, cf coarse, a good maoy papers that do not want a Washington correspondent during the atason interveuioe between the sessions nf Congress, -IS aar of these sand loai of their mey here to do this work and withdraw them at the end cf the seaeon. This is bad policy except for the man who is ssnt, but the pacer, perhaps, don't know it.

pjy nor ambition except to earn fits wtskly ia!ry and ipend it. ui conns thre an ecu men in tbe newspaper world who have (bit tort of a record, as there are la any otber prufsSonfor tt Is a profession but they ere tbe exception, not the rule. Most rf teem have their families; some of them the In their own bensee, keep ttieir own horre s and buqslrs and have their own pews in church. Una thins pi;e oat cf the nuttl order to tbe minds ot most people to se a newspaper reporter passing the plate at church cr tilling the position of usher at one cf tbe n.oit h!fh) fashionable cUnrchrs Itut inch things h.ippen in Vi'ashlngtoa. It is t:o uncommon thing to seo the names ot tho wives acd daaiiters of promt cent correspondents ßi;urlng largely In the anna?s of society, cr to les them in penon taking part in tbe duini o( thst myler!oui kalflJcojlc compound, the tocisl worhl There is. too, more or less aoclai relstionship between the families of the cor respondents, thoogh, where thers are so many, there Is a tendency to divide up into partus whose tastes run In slm'.Iar lines. Tnere are some whose tastes and acqailnt nnces rnn in the line of the theatrical profes sioo; others who cultivate the literary; oto. era who tarn their attention t) tha soclil world of Washington, and others whose ar qratntacce takes a more conservative line and comrhse department people, and even the families cf members of Uorgress. 01 tbe hucdredor two of cewapapr correspond ents who are here, it is probable th: more then cne-hall live In boird'n? houses, for so itar y cf them are eent here br their papers for to brief a time that it is useless for thtm to attempt to establish themselves. There are others, however, who live here, who rrare Washington their permanent homes, stho are here the year around and oue yoar after another, who have been here for twer. ty jears cr more They have, usually, their hemes, tcme of them rented some of thera their own. There is cne peculiarity about the Wasb.' inpton correspondent that Is worthy of notice acd much to be wondered at that is, his re luctance to accent enything new as relates to his own personal methods. Persistant seekers after tews as they are, they reject anythtag new in their own line until it is actually forced upon them through recosltloa by the business world about tbem. Tate the tyrewriter for Instance. It is unlvemlly conceded to be an excellent thing for thois to have much wriitog to do, yet these men who make their living by writing, who do nothing else from one year's end to another, and who would find it a great relief after a tnsy day in the "fleld" where they are com pelled to write more or less by hand, reject it. There are a few who are now beginning its cte; a very few who have Lscd and commended it for years, but th.ey are, alto?e.her, not 10 per cent, of the whole. Tafce that labor-tavlrg instrument, the telephone. Here it connects yon with the White Houte, the home ot every Cabinet of fleer, the desks of dozens of depirtment otticfa'.s wbo are always willing to answer any inquiry you may desire to make, tho Cepitol, the i'ostollice, tbe hotels, ths locil nenipaper ofiices, tbe telegraph otlices, and every news center; jet you can count on ths lingers of your two hand? all of the newspaper correspondents who have it at rest siCence or otlice. The duty of tbe correspondent requires him to travel about the city a great deal. lie must, if euccesiful and alert, violt all the department;, tbe hotels, tbe Capitol, the White House, and otten the rest detce ot soma ctiicial, besides vis ual bis own borne occasionally. Here, in Washiog ten, there is no method of travel more popular, more swift, more comfortable, more inexpensive cr more time and labor saving, than by bicycle or tricycle. The asphalt streets are as smooth as a tloor. and extend all over the city. You may go by the "silent steed" in any direction, with the utmost case aud cemfort, day or night, after the street cars have stopped or while they run. By It yon save time, labor and money, and make that which otherwise would be a drudgery a pleasure. The bicycle is sutlisientiy popular that the person woo rides it does not become unpleasantly conspicuous thereby, for there are hundreds and hundred., prcbsbly thousands, in ths cily and to be seen on the streets at all hours. Department otlicials, buslnets men, physicians, acd peop!e of all classes ride them, acd many ladies use the tricycle with grace acd ease, yet with all of these recommendations acd practical advantages which tbe machine ciTers tho newspaper man, it is rejected. There are but two or three newspapsr men who ride the bicycle, and bat one cf tiese nho rrakes it ot constant prsctical me in his business. It seems edd that theie men, who are coLataiitly seeking something new, vho may only make success br hard and and cor st ant work-, who lead public opinion in many things of grfat importaace, who claim to be progressive in msny things, rhonld reject the very things which would aid them in tbeir own success, simply because they are comparatively nee, and bscense their fathers and grandfathers before them did not use them. In tbeir otlice habits mo3t Washington correspondents are gregarioos. It is not uncommon to find two or three or four or more conepocdents rrcnpvine th same ctlice. TLere are advantages in it, and a!eo dit advantages. There is opportunity tor interchange of news and for division of expenfes, but tbe result is not always satisfas tcry in every particular. Of course net all men who come to Washington as correspondents succsed. It tikes ote sort of talent to succeed in one place acd quite another to be successful somewhere eue. O.'ten the man who was a succes;fal ecitor or reporter in some city a thousand miles away is surprised to find himself a failure here. The man who would bs succesiful here mutt have a large amount of Industry, a full modicum of common sense, a knowl tdeof public men and public aTalrs, both i act and present, aud a "trace'' of that anility designated in the popular and expressive slaigcf to-day as "gall." lilt, most of a'l, he must bs honest, eirnest, uotlrlnz, "instant in season and out cf seasan," truthfal, learlf s?, tota as to politicians and as to tbe views aid opinions of his fellow corresponded, and always a gentlerraa, The key to success as a Washington correspondent may Is given In cce ima!l word work. It was cot the Intention In this letter of entering upon personalities, and this will rotte ceiurted from except to give the faces cf three out ot the many tvldelvknown and honored men who have male the name of Washlcgton corretpoadent an honor to there who wear it. They are E. C. Wright, correspondent of the Chicazo Tribune and Hosten Journal Charles NorihofT the corrertondent cf tbe New York Herald, and D. l: 2JcKce. the head of tbe Associated Tres?, who may be properly termed snccessfal men in the field di;cus;ed in this article, but not mere eo than many others whose faces and names, if ned, would extend the limit! of this article beyond even tbe endurance cf that mcst patient and highly revered newspaper potentate, the managing editor. Tanoa Whangdoodle Baxter distinguished himself once more at the funeral of an aged co'oredman: "Our deceased brudder was marr ed foah times dariog his life," said Whangdoodle, "but only one ob de widows am so fortunate as to be able to survive him lorg enough to be pressnt oa dis heah so'.emnicue ccaghnn." Nurs veiling dresses with caseaies of Egyptian lace set between the fan or box pleatings on the skirt and forming the Tf st on the corsage, are being made this season for dresses for the "fair girl graduate i."

EPIDEMIC OF GliniG.

Accounted for on the Hull of Irre Itglon. Human Naturo la Its nlatloa to Moral. M. W. rrr Tnk tilgt Oroufid V Which to t I'tillnioi'lif uf Af couatlog fr Crime. V ritten for the fuu ly geatlnel. The attention of readers of tho SaoJsy Sentinel has ben attra:!ei ts the'Eplderah of Crime" which Cenator Ufeve, of Tly month, end Mr. Stackhoss, of this city, have been dltcntalng trom apptrent opposite standpoints. Thro gentlemen Bs?ru to bs rather in conilict on the subject: buton cre fully reading t!.em, I Und tint each, in h's way, accounts in part for the lucres e of crime in oar day and generation. It we re;ard crime at a violation of the social, moral and civil atatutcs, rather than in the restricted sense of Its being simply a am leimst the Slate, wa can thea see how Mr. I'ceve's JaJgment touching Ingmllbai and his theory of 'perceptions" cone in'o play in explaining the growth of criminality. In this light also will appear toe force lulness of Mr. Htackhouse's notloa of impoverishment, and his statistics on the subject. Hsd these gen t'.etrca multiplied thslr ass'nmento! cinses, even to tho extent of enumerating among them special SMions of tbe year, the hours ot darknesi, the incidents of ma's meetings cf ths people, ths im moral atmosphere ot large cities, lack of edacstion, the detailing of every failure of wrong-doing In tbs paUic prints, inte upsrtte habit., laxity of family govern meat and other such conditions favorable to ths chrys falllzatien cf evil In ths mind iatoactuil N'nfulness, they would still be rljht in put In the wav of accoantlng for our "Kpide nie (f Crimj." Tho lamsnew of their etforts, however, wonld be chltlly in degree only, far the qufstlon is almost beyond hanun co:ups?. When a very p ious saint saw In a vision the pathway of men all coveui with eneres for their entranment, Ii) crlsi oat: "0, Lord, who cm escaps!" Without at all imrlyirg belief in visions, the csss in qu?3tion iu2?sts that with the orporal eye we can see ell around ui such luduoamsuts ani temptations to crime and sin as more thai expialn to the cloe observer why wrongdr.iog is eoidemlo in onr midit. Dot why is darknfM favorable to crime' Why do certain conditions surest It? If we lind that a false conscience can notdlsoara between gcoi and evil, risht and wrong, what then is to be laid of "porceptloas?" We find, on invist'gat'ou, tba. there are more crimes committed in summer than in winter; more ia a bibulous than in en abstemious community; more by ma'es than by females. Uader certain concomitant conditions tbe ignorant outstrip the edacated in the commissioa of crime, but in tbe refinement ot sinfulness and in special feats of criminality the lesrnsd with no religion are far in aivancs of every other class. These considerations laad opto the truth that In human nature largely and in phytiloglcal bilanca of organization we must look in great i-art for tbe solutioa of thin problem, if favorable conditions are fruitfulof crime and tbe gerru of evil is na live to the ilesh, then the different degress of crime or the entire absence ot it are largely owineto tbe fortunate or unfortunate oraaJzation and surroundings. The man with ere all veneration, large combativeno3sand destrrctiveness and little spirituality, can not eatlly help being a sturdy trudgir oa the hitu road ot crime. He might ba so trained, however, as to restrain his tendencies by tho aevelopement ct the opposite cranial orgtas. but unaided he follows his inherent tendencies, Instincts end ration?. Here, thsn, is work for the schools, for the palplt, for the parent. The ictiaence of home Is sslatary. i Chrutianitv Is icdisoenslbla. Nowhere is there need for Ingersollism. ApropcsofMr. Btackhoute's impoverishment theory might be mentioned In contrast the strengthening lnduenss of religion. It can cot be successfully denied but that to tbote nnacqnaintei with mcrils pinching poverty tends to increase crime; bit poverty la poffcrlets for evil whers rel'gtoa aid morality are in ths ascendant. And. I m'gbt add. are there cot these who msA aps;.al privations the s'epping stones to a higher lift? Tfce ipicttcU of the Irish Ns'.ion. evin when It counted O.COO.GO) of poople, piaos fnlly enduring enforced povarty 'oal'zsd famine and opc.1Jiol for the pn. 70) years is proof of this. Oi coaatleis oc:a eions white gloves have bsen preseital to the Assize Judges in nearly crery d strict in Ireland as an evidence of the ootire abisnco ot all crime. This is an arhnr'eat that makes ns confess that, while poverty may bs favorable to crime, religion, as inca'citei bp the priests of the church, successfully leads the masses in the pathway of raora's, pea:s and good order. If, however, a di Hare at state of afiVrs prevails in Ireland to day, the reverse of what I have iust atlirmei will account forit. It is not in Ireland alone tha". inch a showing for moia's can be obtained. The Polish people have a history much ths tatre. Tbe enfreriegs they endured and the want that has b?en yisitcd upon thsm never succeeded in reducing them to the level o! a lTv&s or specially vic'ous people. fan. when hisorgaolzstion hnotsp:cially unfortunate, is a religions animal to a very prooonnced dtgrea. His intentions, by the aid of kindly direction, cm be male to teod in the stay cf gocd. His rational fionlty aids in the accomplishment ot the scheme of rx era! s and law. and more tban counterbalances, as it in the order of grace, his visions propensities' and passions. To each the gospel of love, the doctrine of reward aad punishments, and the entire religioa of Carist constitute an anchorage, a protection, a poide. Deprive the human family of si:h irtluence, leave tho people to their fate in a world cf sin. and the white-capped waves on the great ocean cf crlaae will mock a: ths fewness of the eaved and sealed. To teaci a men that this world is all there is of this Ufa in body aad spirit Is to fit him for critns. To take hope away from him li to make him atrocg against your rights nod your properly and your life. It may smack ot a certain grade cf bravery to scant thess things, bat the pricciples of the Christian religion saved the world from anarchy whsa, through f jar of darrjtr. this brood of mocking vipere were slnnk to their hiding places. "Thou shait not kill" is a command that 's xery often violated in oar day, and glaringlr so in tbe case of suicides. When a fat-beadel man, who Is wide between tbe ears and flatbeaded, tails to me about the courage of tie self destroyer I thick about tbe days of Dr. Gall, and how much there is in organizatioa and enrronndirge. The enicide evidensei eitter insanity, cowardice or irreli'ox. Ths two latter are frequently a team in eash Instances, A man maybe physically brave by virtue of a icoi nervous system, and at the fsme time be the veriest moral cosrard. I would venture 6nch an oplmoi ia the caie of Mr. Irgersoll. He does not fetrhtaGoi, tirce it is only his belly; but lethlmfaos the death ecene of tke yoang man whose anchorace has been torn lcoe by Ingersolllsm. Lst Robert descend to the depths to which he has been instrumental in ploruing his victim. Let a mother's prayers, a sister's tears, an untimely death and a turbu'.eat sea of immorality claim him as their sourcs and prime cause, acd our modern infidel, im moral lor money, though very much blunted, will cry "peccavi!" Those who have attempted to go over the river uninvited, and have been persuaded to stay yet a little while, have cinfessed a itate of feeling and an experience that accord with my position. Btay the hand of him who would kill his progeny, his parent, his friend, ani oho tograph him mentally and morally, and what is ih j durtcUr of ths p'.ctere? Yoasssia

his cits etTeets, and these base a cause, do out into the tvle world, and heboid the cause. Tbl came 1 the strenge mtntof the soul from God. It is the vto'atlon cf human and ditina law the work of thcie ebo would teach to do evil with impunity, Thersare many things and ondl lions that are steps leadlb to the depths of the valley of crime, bnt the c-nUl of Ua 1 i jr. j j them all into one step an J that is the fall, a plunge that is fatal. A man without (cd may have natural virtue like the heathen La, bnt hs Si wanting in tln.e sorernatural virtues that are ths oopcfcites cf every species ot vice tbat austsin hltain peril and great necessity. Thsrela tlcn betwien God and the human soul is the key In which tbe music of nature is written. TL harmonies that are the bails nf peace ard joy are toned to this keynote. The mel r dies that asnnge eorrow, that nretn fitnr tie warp and woof of hope, are theft's it t ot the accep'arus and observance of the iLCiallarr. They are antagonistic to crlino In every form, as are also the teachings cf ths rdiglcnot Jetns. the otivrrauce or non objervance ccrresponJj to tho ebb and tloar ot the tide of crime. M. W. Caur.

Ibe I'plderutn of Crime, pccor.d rarer. I Mr. Reeve, in his last article, says that be was only dlicuiilcg tbe cause of wife aud child murder, and not crime In general. Aud llxrefcre seeks to prescribe special eins s fir this specific class ot cilrue. Acd the special came that hs assigns Is this: Man desires to live hereafter, not here, and if he believes he Kill lot lire hereafter then he will murder his wife acd children all that he best loves, atdtten commit suicide. This is the sum cf his three columns in the Sentinel of last Sunday. 1hre are, naturally, four impelling causes to crime: Natural itstinct, greed, necessity ar d fanatlclim, ami they operate probably in about tie order named. Ths first two n-eik the r.'gular criminals that, liks the peer, we always Lave with us. The last two ate operated on by occasional and extra cecoa circuirsiances, and cause epidemics of crlne. There is always for every crime an icccntive that appeals to ths mind, and cauies it to give ts consent to, and centre 1 the body and the rauscits in tbe commission of that crime. And In locking for csusc of unusual molts we must search within the domain cf the natural opein'.ioas of the human niird when in unusual conditions. Nov, right here Mr. U-eve and I diverge. He eajs that the desire of the human sjulisto live hereafter, no, here. I cay that the so i the s-i.irit the I am takes no in ire c ioizarceof the body than does ths chrysalis u tbe cocoon that increases it, nr dees it take any mere record of time ipsUj:. your own tot!; eo down to tbe thought inpellirg Ego and question it and ths answer will come back clear and dittinct, ''tanestly desire to live, and dreai annihilation. I am a aelf exiaticsr entirely, and as euch let me live, with or without tbe boiy I care not, bnt let me live and maintain my idsn tity." "If a man die shall he live again?' lasbren aeked by everyone in aliases and in all conditions of civilization. Aud if a negative answer, was given what would be the remit? s We will suppose two young men to stand evtuly in life, and in mlcdle age bstb ti id tLey l ave met with the common lot of humanity failure. One of these men believes in a future life, and tbe other does not. Each cf them ha? around him a young family Lkly to sntfVr for food and clothing. Time men ere exceptions to ths rale, aid will i either te nor steal. From ths depths of each ouo's soul comes np the cry: I eiraestly rifsire to live. I have not accomplished tbat of which I am capable. I have uot fulfilled my destiny. And these innocent chl'dren that I have brought into ths world! What of them?' The one woatd say: 'If! kill thete children now, while they ara ycuig and innocent, they would iaiatsilattly pe watted to realms ot eternal bliss, aad there they and I can complete our career; but if tbey continue to live hera I cat ste nothing before them but poverty, salTeriog aid temptation; ard maybe they may fall it they hve out tbt-ir days, and go to eternal torment." The other eays: "I earnestly desire to live, but this life ts all thera i. I Lave not lived the life I am capable o'. I have rot completed my destiny, ähall I end it now and go down to posterity as a fa lure, cr shall 1 try it sgiin? And tbeie children that Have brongbt into the world! Ueyhave the eao e desire to live that I haw. Stall I annihilate them at th.9 rry threshold of Mf. before their capacity bis been tested?" Now, searching wltaia the reasonable domain ot thought for a causa of action, which of tbee would ba most like ly to commit suicide and chlld-murier? As I before ea'd, there is always an lncsnllva for every crim ; and in the cases of suicide and child murder I have to far noted bat two causes fanaticism, as In ths Fraemaa ci)9, and poverty. In tbe former Inslancs ths fanaticism is always religions. In the other case, tbe one we have before ns, which would be most likely to end tha eutiering by murder, he who believed he was sending his children to endless bliss with eternity ia wlvca to work out their destiny? Or he who believed he was annihilating tham? It is not n ceisary fcr me to answer tin qaestloa, bnt I leave it with each to answer for himself. For myself I consider tbe question as narrowed by Mr. Reeve unworthy of discussion. Hat is to eay, I do not believe its diioassion can rcsnlt in any pod. Lst us look at the fact: We find that all kinds ot cr;m, from pocket picking aad chhken stealing np to wife and child murder, increased about 53 per cent ia issiover what it was in 1SS3. Now there Is one general cause for this increase in all grades ot crim?, and it would be just as well to ssk why negroes stole more chickens in 1331 thaa tbey dldinlfs; for the answer would be ths tame: There were more negroes who could not earn a living by labor in 1S31 than there was in Is;, and chicken stealing is ths peculiar ciime to which the negro mini is attracted. As was shown in my last, mar der increased in ths State in 1831 nearly ") per cent, over is3, and the Inmates of the State prison in nearly tho came ratio. In tbe prison at Michigan City there was 510 In ISivJ and 701 at the close of 131. And you may gather the statistics from all the State and county rrlEons in the United States, and get alto th number of murders ot all kinds, the! enmbar of suicide;, and tbe sdauisfons to insane asylums, and you will find that there has bsea an inc case in insanity and in ail grades of crime, from the highest to the loimt, very nearly correspoadlng with the ability of tbe wage-wcrtcrs to eara a living by toll. And crime will coatlnue to increase in ail i's phases, of which child murder acd eai c'.de Js one, as the ability of the wage-workers t feed and clothe their loved cnes decreases cntil tbe end comer. And waat will tost bfc? Study history, and yon will find it studded with examples. The Uelo's sutT-jred .) years before they arose against their masters. The slaves of Rome eyen longer. But the working people of Faacs only asked for bread or work about twenty-fire years before they inaugurated the blooi'est revolution tbat history records. And right Lere allow me to euea a thought to all who have only thoughts superficially on thii inbject: The writers of the day imputed, and sensational preachers yet impute, tbe bloody scenes of the French revolution to to the fact that the people denied the exist ence of a God! Now, the French are unive really reccgnlzad as a peculiarly religions ptople, that is so far as forms and ceumonies go, and they tacitly accept ot the fundamental claims of the Christian religion. Mere than this, they are naturally vivacious, enjoy life, and desire to live. Why was it then that this cation aU at once ataltifisi its history and natural -proclivities and almost as one man sail there was no God and no life beyond thlt? If von will but refer to the world's history i yen will 2nd taat epidemica of crime aad of

the M:Mt ci'rru nci -. C'cmn enclug Mont'ay evening nex, aad con'mulBg all week, with Wednesday and Saturday matinees, William Lloyd's Drama'lc Company, la 'Iimoaand Tythias," will be the attraction at the Grand Opera House. The play is by John Rtnlai, and is ia fire acts and twelve Ecenes. "Damon and Pythias" is unlike tbe majority of the melodramas, inasmuch as it has a consistent plot and a closely constructed story of humaa interest. Roth are blended together hirmoniontly. Instead of making the drama sib servient scenic etlect or the carpenter's art, the author has eo constructed his work that et8&e realism Is dependent ou the story i'8l', aid instead cf l(njing tbe interest of the audience along by ttarlling sensationalism, the writer has eo wondsrfully husbanded h's trail rial that the Interest from the first act is aroneed, and byasris of delihtfal earprtes in word portraiture, he fascinates the tec!ss and finally leads up to h!s climaxes so catorally tbat the story is in no sense an ovtretralned eilect or an intrusion on probability. The most delightful tiling about tbe plav Is that the cat is promised ot good and uniform strength. There ia hardly a weak spot to be found. The Damon" of Mr. Lloyd is fall of s.rcneth and poiver, while ths "Pythias" ot W. K. Thomas, the ' CalantheM of Mis. (Ubrlel'e Mclvesn, are far above tbe average.

The aolo given by Mr. Henry Shoemaker at the City Band concert last Bunday evenir g is said to be the mcst diiUcult written for tke clarionet, containing, as it does, a note requiring the highest tone possible for such an icetrnmcnt.

There are comparatively but few people In Indianapolis or, in fact, in the State o! Iadianc but what at times wish for, or at times realize the necessity of rest, recreation and reenperatiu; cone bat what have cause to complain at times of tired feelings, caused by Irregnlanties of itemach or kidneys. The number cf people who leave the city yearly amounts at a low estimate to 1,000, costing at a low estime 100 each, or $100,000, spent by oar citizens at places of resort, impover isbicg our own city acd adding to the prosperity cf other sections juet that amount. And then there is a class who stand ia greater need cf rest than the class who caa adord tbe expecss of going to distant points to rsceive the benefits to health thoss who depend on their salaries to sapport faanilles, ar-dcancot take tbechancs of absenting themselves from business and adding to thur chances cf losing, their situations, to say nothing of less of time so needful to them There be few who know that within thirty minutes the Vacdalia lliilroad can take them to a little villago in Hendricks County where tature is pour in? out blessings to all who are suffering with kidney aud atoaiach troubles and who will drink from the fountains that natura supplies, prcducice health giving waters at tbe rate of thirty gallons per minute from the aereral springs. Our capital city has but few attraction", as compared with other cities. Nature has dona a great deal for ns, if we would utilises others do the advantages siren ns Tae tendency is at the time to täte our wealth from Indianapolis and bestow it to other localltie?, possessing no more merit, excep ing in enterprise. Kastern capitalists at ons time o Jered an extravagant pri:e for thess spring", but were re'nset, on account of a faratic owner, who was afratd tbe loclity would not be beoeateJ: t'aat dancing would be Indulged and morals ot community endangered thereby. Tasss springs remain active the year round, and their virtues are equaled by but few. If any, and are surpassed by none. They keep babbling their invitation to eaterprislce men: Come and utiUzs oar virtnee; we will b'eis all who may partake cf us acd make you rich. The location is aU that could be deiirel.
