Letter From the National CapiiaL CbUfi of Statistic Fietmra of Professor Dodge, James Moiun ftnd Carrol 1. WrtUt. "Washington, Hay 2- The statisticians o Washicgtoa are occupying a pretty lara share of public attention jast now. Professor Junmo, the hf&'i of the Bureau of Statistics of the Treasury Department, is packing hia pripsack: preparatory to leaving the plica which he has held for the pact seven or eight yeais. Mr. Carroll D. Whighfc is hard at work geltirg hi3 twenty tpec'al agents Into the field, and Professor DjJe. the Statistician of the Horticultural Depirtuent, has jast .launched npoa aaura'iepectfd pabllc a cal-culat-on cf facts and fibres which will only be appreciated by the few who tare time to give them a carefal study. Editor Svitzler, ol Sllssoori, who has been named to succeed Mr. Kimrxo, is here preparing to taie the po aition on the first of tha coming month. Mr. "Wright, althcush appointed by President Arthur, expects to retain hia place, and Pro feasor Dcdg?, who has been at bis present post about twenty yean, feels that he la in no immediate danger. The figure which tin rnor. j. a. dodoi. 3tudy cf statistics cuts in the administration of a great and iateliigsnt government such as this ia grfater than many would sappo. An able tuv'Mician is a persoi of great value to the Govern c-ent cr a tueat. "It is wonderful," said a gentleman connected fr-r uiany jta s with the statistical work cf the Government here, "to lee the prowth of this vork in the vast few yeaw, and tLe it:cr-f sed interest tbat Is beid taken in it.

'When you see the people beginning to tike an interest in Statistical information, yoa may ba sure thev are thinkiai; oa matter? cf importance. Yts, the development in this regard in the past few years has been very great-" "You Ret more calls for information in this lice thaa yea did a few years ao?" "A great many more ye?, ten times as we did ten years ago; acd the work of ga.h- - ering the statistics is looked upon much more favorably row than it was a fe years ago. Then it was looked upon with aversion; there was a sort of feeling ilia' it was an interference with private bunues?, and that the facts and f guiei so gathered would Dot ba of enymiterial value. There was a demand with a certain cl&'s for s'.atiatics, bp t they were few in number." "What is th jcore oT the work undertaken by the Treasury Bureau of Statistics?" "ImpoTts and exports, and internal commerce We glv8 with exactness the amounts of the imports and exports, and a pretty good estimate of interral commerce. Of course it would be impossible to cover everything In internal commerce, for that would include JAMI3 5IMMO, JR. every bus;nes transaction down to the sale eft pound cf coifee, but we get the great movements in a sratif j lue way." "It most take a larjre force of employes to accomplish this wort 7 ' "Yes. We have thirty fire men here now. and all thecollectoasof poit and their forces of men are required by law to assist Uf, tarniahicg us tbe quantities and value of the various articles imported and exported. By this mean we are able to state the precise quantity and value of over 1.000 different articles and clusts of trticles that are im portod." How does your system compare with that cf other countrisr "Very favorably. We get the statistical reports of other Governments, and find by comparison that ours is more satisfactory tfcan their?. Then this is by no meaua the only statistical buieaa of the Government. Usch dfiartment has Its etatislicin who d als especially In the class of information suited to his department, eo the amount of information gathered i,j tbe Government in this way is something wonderful.

The truth, that always is tue accessory of separation of lovars, burned in the young man's breast, and he took the opportunity, when the general was leaving, to load him dewn with rresssges of love and a book for bis fiancee. The gallant worrlor untertook the commission with all willingness, and when he bad rested from his trio he started cfl ene Eurdsy morning for Oakland with the book under his arm.

Ilowells, the novelist, sava it is easier lor a man to seek tha forgiveness ot God than it is to teek'the forgiveness of his wife. Not long ago an advosate of female suf frage was asked: "How Foaldyoalika loeee your wife running for inice against you?' and the reply wts: "Nothing would suit me better.

There are many ways in which ii would be well for us ail ts carry our childhood with ns, even on into o.d age, if it were possible, in its truthfallness and open heartedness, and willingness Eot oaiv ty love, but to show that we love, as well. Why, that list a'.uae would cure many a heart .che cf to day. President Cleveland's last reception at the white House was an unusual popular ail'iir quite tbe most popular reception that has teen given there since General Grant was President. Gue6ta wers received by the Pres ident and Mies Claveland in tho Blue Par lor, the presentations being made by Colonel Ilockwccd. The crowd was endrmous, and the most of tte men seemed to havo left their dress suits at home. There was iittle display of jewelry or handsome toilettes among the'ladles. On the whole, this "democratto" reception cfTered a rather striking coatra3i t some of Mr. Arthur' brilliant ent3rtalarxents llarper's Bszar. . Dan Voorbees says that h9 appeared onsa in a lawsuit in which one of ta" cbiet witnesses or the other side was the mother of Senator Booth of California In hi free and easy way the Tad y came re asked haramng questions, but not the fclisute&t 6igrf of attention came frani tbe woman. He becama impatient and Kuapty. Finally he demanded, in bis oratorical way, whether or not he was going ts be answered at all. Th u. with a smile, she turned to the lawyer of her trends and asked, with seeming innocence, "Must I really sa7 anything to a roan who looks like that? ' She pointed to Voorhees and shuddered.

The human nature in a woman, or In t3 wrijcec. :s aboat th saaie now tiaf. it was when the temptation occurred in Glen. Yettcrday I was down at the art reception when two ladles c-ime in. Hiving exa nined a few pictures one of tiieni aatd: "I hear that General Lrgn has boen elct?d Ub iled States Senator." "Istbat bo?" qaard the other- "Yes; and his wifs is in Weabington," "Then sae was not witi uiai at Springfield" "2Io." "Well, I'm glai nf it. If she had been we wo aid have the newspapers telling ua again about what a smart woman General Logan had for a wife, acd how bis election was brought about by hr ep!f ndid tact. We will not have that thrown at us this time." "No," answered the other one, "and I am g!d of lt. I guess Ü she had been at 8pr:nged he wouldn't have been elected." The Barber's Side of It. "You bear a great deal of talk about being too talkative," said a Pittsburg bsrber, "but let me tell you that the barber who doesn't talk isn't any goo. He isn't popular with the trade and he doesn't make a eook workman. Yoa see, a man comes in and get into the chair, and the barber commences shaving him without saying a word. The cu in who is being shaved has nothing to thiak about except himself, and he imnieliat'iy begins to kick abcut the razor. It pulls aad hurts hia face, and nothing suits him, and he goes away dissatisfied with tha shop aad the barber. Now, if one of those good nature 1. talkative barbers would take that same man and commence talking po'itics and th weather, the police and the skating rink to hip). .nd there would never be the slightest kick." How Shall Women ba Dressed, IThe Hour. I The costume of wom,n, from a hyg'enlo point of view, is much dtecusssd at present and the vexed questioa ol ttgnt lacing and of skirts too numerous and heavy for the forms which sustain them is coisidered with patient tbougbtfalness by medical people and female reformers. However, ail this gieat expenditure of time ;i ad attention will doubtless result, aa it has hitherto done, in no possible change in dress save that prescribed by fash'on. The evila of lating are in general exsgserat.ed, acd it ia by no means impossible that if men wore a species of corset they would enjoy an immunity from the effects of vio lent co.d and many disarders fioa which thMj row BuSer. The aooient beau of an ae mere foppish than oar 'Wn was not unfamiliar with the art of lacing, and there is no record of his being injured by it. Ihe exposure to cold in wearing !ov neck druses if certainly one whlc'i aS'ects the heslthcf women mere immediately than th wearing of corsets, and the thin soled slip' era and hih leais cf tha day are also csti-es ot cold and consequent disturb nee of ihe system. The advantage ot wo en nrt'ervtsts over cilk is certainly rui toba denied, but to aa irritable skin the former is alno6t as intolerable aa the hair shirt cf a resttent, as such Belf-ir.fi.cted scoargesara not de rigner for the moment, the silk vest ia j.erhapa the more popular. The Itorrowed Horse. "Tachyhlppodamia," by W. J. Te'.low.l "I will relate a iittle cirenmatance that took place in Mexicaafew years before 1 lf t there. One of my friends had a horse extremely gentle and of such an easy, airreeahle gait that be took the gisatest care of him acd held him at a great price. A well-fed big and lusty friar was a friend to our neighbor one who liked tbe good things of this wcr.'d as well as be liked to ride out to the small towns bordering upon the city of Mexico and take a dinner witn the bonny laaaea and countrymen inhabiting thoss village. He csed to ask my friend to loan him his bone to take these excursions just around the capital, and, as his requests were granted with so gocda grace, he, in a short time, went bo far as to ask the loan of this favorite animal to go to Cuernavaca, a distance of eighteen leagues. As this happened pretty oiten, our Irlend complained to me one day of the Indiscretion of the friar. I aakeJ him if he conld procure me a friar's drees for a few days, and leave his horse with me for the sari.0 time. Hed'dso. I dressed mj self in tba friar's dress and went in where the horse was. I took a s,ood whip in my hand and rraiie him do penance fcr no oihr sia bat that ol tco much gentleness. GiLns or.t I took eft" my friar's dress and went In a!n in my own dress, and handled kirn gently. I repeated tte operation a few dais, tt the end of which I tock the horse back to his master, ard told bim ke might lend him to the friar whenever he pleased. A day or two after he ceme to my store. 'Your lemedf,1 said he, baa had a marvelous effect. Oar mans iia just left my boose, perfectly rnnvil that ay bene Ls po.!8C3?cd with the devil For

when the holy personage came up ts fake bim by the bridle to Ret on him, ba was ao frightened, acd wbeeied round ao quick, and flew away from him with so much terror, that one would have said tbat he took him for tbe destroying angel.' The friar crossed himself many times, hurried away in all baste to the convent to sprinkle himself with holy water, and cever asked my friend fcr bis horse again." In this case the horse remembered the dress, cot the features of the individual who used tbe whip cn him.
