Washington Needs an Unusually Good Police Force. From the New York Times, Although there appears to be no foundation for the report of a disagrcement between Major Gen, Schofield and Adjt. Gen. Kelton in regard to the practice of recruiting for the District of. Columbia police from the artillery batteries of the army, yet the question of expediency in disturbance in the stations than they should be permitted todo, When they are placed behind the bars, unless they are dead drunk, they abuse and slander the police generally and make so much noise that the officers off duty cannot sleep in the station. That, perhaps, is fun for them, but not for the tired policemen, who are trying to get their much-needed rest | before going out again on duty. In cold weather many crunkards are picked up in the snow and ice, half frozen to death, und when they reach the station a physician has to be called in and ‘the patient’ is given hospital treatment, free of charge, until he recovers, ‘HIS LIFE I8 SAVED without any expense to him or any trouble on his part. Many others who fall about the streets in the snow and ice are picked up and kept from freezing to death. In that way many lives are saved by the officers, who get of imitation antique furniture produce the goods they sell, If a desk is the article to be disposed of they have one final touch to add that excites anqualificd admiration for its in- genuity. To cover up an artificial crack in one of the drawers they paste over it a portion of a real letter, properly smoked, from Robert Mor- ris or some other revolutionary person whose epistolary missives come cheap, at 50 cents apiece or so, in the autographic market at this day. One letter used in this manner will serve for several escritoires, and thus the purposes both of economy and chronological resem- blance are satisfactorily served, Candlesticks and andirons iu brass are done ad infinitum in the same fashion as the knobs above spoken of. The audirons, however, are first done into wood for models, and then cast from the latter, with applications of pumice and gunpowder to follow. A special branch of the work has to do with clocks of the ancient upright pattern, which will certainly follow. —_ee0e—____ Serious Charge Against a Postmaster. Joseph R.
