WASII1XGTOX LETTER, j J Frcm our Regular Correspondent. For tlw Ih-nionat Mr. Harrison has shut l is eyes to the results of the re cent elections, mul made up his mind to urge in his an nual message to Congress the passage by the Senate of the Force hill and by the House of the notorious diip subsidy bil!s. In short, he has, in spite of the protests of some of the most far-see-ing members of his party, including Mr, Blaine, deter mined to cast hislotwith the radical wing of the republi can party. That however does not mean that the Force bill will be passed. All indi cations are against its pas sage, as it is eirtoin that more republican Senators would now vote against it than would have done so at the last session of Congress had it then reached a vote. Mr. Harrison will also, it is said, strongly endor.se the McKinley tariff act in hi message. Democrats fear that these tilings are too good to be true. They can hardly realize that their op ponents should be willing to do so much toward demo cratic success i" ISO J. There are good reasons for believing that as soon as Congress meets bills will be introduced by republican Senators from the X rth w esl , modifying or repealing sections of the new tariff law which bear down heavily up on t lie citizens of the States they represent. It is believ ed 'hat bills placing binding twine on the free list, and re ducing the duty on ready made clothing would receive the votes of every republican Senator from west of the Mississippi river; and there is some talk about u combi nation which in return for the votes of several republi can Senators from the East ern States for these measures shall repeal all duties upon raw materials. Such bills could easily be gotten through the House, as it is a fact well-known here that at least twenty-five members of the House voted for the Mc Kinley bill under protest, nnd only because they lacked the moral courage to stand the lashes of the party whip which was given them un sparingly whenever they evinced a disposition to kick outside of the party traces. Mr. Blaine is now engaged in performing his celebrated reciprocity act. He hopes to save the moribund old re publican party by holding out glittering inducements to the people of what will be accomplished in the future, and Ly ignoring the injury inflicted upon them at this time, w hich they have resent ed so effectually by their votes. Mr. Blaine has a long head, and "his brain is an active one, but he cannot ba m boozle the A merican peo ple, who know that real re-J ciprocity with the whole world would be a grand thing for us, but who know also that the reciprocity with a string tied to it, pro vided for, or rather alleged to he provided far, I..V the; Mi-Kiuh'V tariff law, is a fraud j .,in nnd simple.

If I do not re mem tier ; thee let my tongue cleave to ,the roof of my mouth, if I prefer not Jerusalem above j my chief joy." Because of love of country, 1 he children of Isrn"l hung their harps upon the willows a nd w ept by 1 1 le ri vers of Ba b ylon. Love of country drove the Persians back from the Hellespont, and caused to be enscribed upon the Mausole um at the puss of Thermop yle, "Oh ! stranger, tell it in Lncedamon that we died here iin obedience to tier laws. Love of country made the ex clamation, "I am a roman citizen", rcspecied all over the then known world, and caused every Boman, wheth er of high or low origin, to think it sweet to die for his country. That made Boman justice avenge the honor of the chaste Lucretia, and res cued the fair Yirginia from the breast of the proud Clan dins: and made the heroic Ye truria. extort from her fierce son with his savage vil lains at his back 'Old moth er, thou hast saved Home but lost thy son.' When theland of his birth required it, Ly curgus could chooseexileand death because he thought Sparta would be benefited by it.

What think you inspired the faltering Scotch troops at the taking of Queoec, and made them rush as bravely as the English, upon the bris fling bayonets of the intrep id Frenchmen? It was the wild strains of theirbagpipes ivhich had been restored to them, to winch they had so often listened on the "Hanks and Brn?s of bonny Doon"'. nnd had resounded adown the cliffs and glens of a Wallace and a Bruce. And when the Scoltish maid in far off Ind'a amid the clashing of arms, ind the wild shouts of the merciless Sepoys, caught the shrill sound of her native Slo gan; mem or v called her back to her native hills, and die eyclainied: "They lome. ihe come." 1 .-own!' count rv is a universal iis the abodes ol man.'

But there is ! little lever in its mechanism that at the pressure of a man's hand will slacken its speed, and in a moment or two brings it panting and still, like a whipped spaniel at your feet. By the same little lever the vast steam ship is guided hither and yon, upon the sea, in spite of adverse wind or current. That sensitive spot by which a boy's life is controlled is his heart. With your grasp gently and firmly on that helm, you may pilot him whither you will. Never doubt that he has a heart. Bad and willful boys very often have the tenderest hearts hidden away some where beneath incrustations of sin or behind barricades of pride. And it is your bus iness to get at that heart, kf.ep hohl.ot it by sympathy, confiding in him manifestly working only for his good by little indirect kindness to his mother or sister, or even his pet dog. See him at his home, or invite him into yours. Provide him with some pleasure, set. him at some little service of trust for you love him; love him practically.
