Meeting of the Farmer's Club.
The November Meeting of the
Cecil Club w:is held at Mr. Josh
eph Condon’s pursuant to appoint
ment, on Wednesday last, 18th inst.
The meeting was not very well at
tended by members, there not being
a quorum present, which p:evented
the tegular order of business from
being taken up. How this unfortu
nate coincidence of so many members
failing to attend occurred we
could not conjecture, as
the day was one of the fi
nest. Mr. Condon has a magnificent
farm of nearly 800 acres. The bu !d
--ings are located on a gravelly know],
from which a grand view out over the
upper part of Chesapeake bay, and
the famous ducking flats of the Sus
quehanna is had. The building? are
large and-fine and every thing in har
mony with an extensive and fertile
farm. The host of the day being es
sayist, Mr. Coudon was called on to
read that document, but there being
no quoram he pleaded that such a
proceeding would be out of order,
and the matter being further urged
confessed that he had been remiss,
and had prepared none, but that he
had put a few thoughts together which
lie would give the company the bene
fit of in a familiar talk. The subject
of conversation was the comparative
profit of grass and grain fed cattle.
The speaker had some misgivings
as to there being any profit derived
from feeding grass cattle, attributing
the cause mainly to the low price ot
dressed Chicago beef, which filled the
markets of our large cities. The
subject was discussed pro and con.
but, the leading cattle men among the
members not being present no defin
ite opinion was reached. The meet
ing although informal was a very
pleasant one, and swelled to fair p r o
portions by a number of invited guests
A serious question arose on account
| of no quorum being present, as to
what disposition was to be made of
the most excellent canvas back duck
dinner which had been provided (or
the club, but when the hour arrived
for discussing this part of the pro*
t gram, a motion to suspend the rules
prevailed, and the subject was taken
up and disposed of in the most satis
isfacloiy and exhaustive manner.
We felt sorry, and are quite sure
Mr. Coudon did also, that the at
tendeuee of members was so few, the
great interest of agriculture, for the
advancement of which the Club was
’ formed, must suffer to some extent,
f when ever those who have its keep
ing in charge fail to respond to her
call.
The Club adjourned to meet at Mr.
Jno. W. McCullough’s on Wednesday
Dec. lGth, and it is hoped that all
the members will feel it a duty to be
present, and that Mr. McCullough
will not neglect the necessary essay,
and customary essay.
Mr. Coudon has some fine short
horn stock and we have never seen a
nicer lot of Berkshire pigs than punct
uated the wood lot adjacent to the
barn, like black dots or periods on
the pages of an agricultural journal.

Our Washington Letter.
From our regular Correspondent.
Washington, Nov. 20, 1885.
The members of the Forty-Nintii
Congress are arriving iu the city
daily. They nre talking about the
Speakership contest, about revising
the rules of the Lower House, about
the Senate’s opposition to {’resident
ial appointments, and about the
questions to be presented this winter
to the new Congress.
While it is understood that the
Democratic majority will re-elect
Mr. Carlisle Speaker 1 the Republicans
will give the complimentary nomina
tion to one of their brethren. As
the Member becomes the virtual
leader of the minority, a certain in
terest centres in the coming action of
the House Republican caucus.
Several names are mentioned for
this honor. The}' are Messrs. Reed,
of Maine, Hiscock of New York
Long of Massachusetts, ami McKin
ley of Ohio. The two former are
really the only candidates, and it is
thought that Mr. Reed will get the
nomination. Being more aggressive
and more courageous in the expres
sion of his opinions than Mr. His
cock, he is the natural leader of the
Republican minority.
Mr. Reed is a ready, irrepressible
talker, and spends a large part of
his time in Congress on his feet,
either in speaking or in button-hol
ing his confreres. He knows well
how to utilize his own information,
and he has a sarcastic style that is
heightened by au exasperating cool
ness. Both he and Mr. Hiscock are
men of experience, each having
served several terms in the House-
Mr. Hiscock is slow in his movements
and methods He does not speak
often, and has no gift for shining in
the running fire of an acrimonious
debate. He is a rich man, and dur
ing the winter gives fine dinners.
The Republican leaders are all
high-tariff advocates. All the
leaders on the Democratic side
with the exception of Air. Ran
dall, are pronounced revenue re
formers. Therefore the battle in the
House between protection and reform
of the tariff, promises to be fought on
strict party lines.
There is so much complaint
against the rules of the House of
Representatives, that effort will be
made early in the session to improve
them. Congressman Springer says
he lias spent months in devising a
set of rules that will facilitate legis
lation. Through the present“rules the
most positive will of the majority can
be defeated by the minority, and the
interests of the many subordinated
to the schemes of a few. The average
day in the House is devoted the ques
tion “What shall we do to-day?” The
gentleman from Illinois says his plan
of revision opens the way for prompt
transaction of business which meets
the approval of a majority, lie is
willing to trust a majority of the
representatives of the people.
The extent to which the Republi
can Senators will oppose the Admin
istration in the matter of appoint
ments will be determined by the
caucus in about a week. A Repub
lican Senator remarked, “I do not
believe in opposing the President
because he is a Democrat. There are
two tilings to be considered in an
