 "In courteous acknowledgment of the de- monstratons of respect and attention to the President of the United States by the authori- ties, cltlzens and citizen soldiery of Washing ton, without party difference, on his late leav- Ing the city for temporary visit to the east and his return hither as we'll as on prior occa- sions, the President on Monday issued invita- tlons for an evening call upon him at the off, cal mansion. The invitations were, we pre- sume, universally accepted, and accordingly the company was numerous, about two hun .red. It consisted of the present Mayor, and hve ex- Mayors of Washington, both boards of the city councils, the field, staff, and company officers of the District Volunteer corps. the six. ty members of the committee of reception" and other citizens of Washington and neigh borhood, among whom were several of the oldest and most identified with its history and growth.
 They found ready to meet them all the Cab inet-wlth the single exception of the Secreta- ry ot the Navy, not yet returned to the city Com. Pauldng ot the Home Squadron. and Capt. Eagle, of the abash at present guests of the President, heads of the various civil and military Bureaux of the government. and other gentlemen of distinction in the service of the country. Introductions were made bv the Marshal of the District of Columbia. An orchestra selected from the Marine Band, and placed in the great hall, executed in beautiful style during the evening choice pieces of ope- ratio and other music.
 Shortly before 10 o'clock the party were in trodaced to the spacious dining room, where a most bountifu collation. of the choicest viands greeted the eye and laid peremptory challenge to closer engagement In keeping with this elegant protusion of edbles was the liberal sup ply of the best wines. It need scarcely be said that not guest present failed to give full proof of his appreciation of the good things provided After the conclusion of a sumptuous repast the party perepared to withdraw, the military pre- senting themselves in due retiring order before their distinguished host and commander-in- chief. Everybody was delighted with the events of the evening, and in particular with the kindness and urbanity so conspicuous in the attentions bestowed by the President on all hls guests. It was an occasion that, by univer- sal consent. has never been equaled by any pre- ceding entertainment given in the executive mansion.

Early Christians and their Slaves.

A correspondent of the National Inteligen- cer writes as follows:
 In these days, when the principles of Chris t!anity are tortured to mean almost any thing that diseased prejudice may dictate, it i re- freshing to go back to the earliest times of its existence, and see the practices of those who lived in the generation next but enc to that of the Apostles 1 send you an extract from Bansen's Hippolytus and his age," vol 3. page ,. It is an authentic compilation ol " The Church and house'book of the AnceaJ Christiaps,' and the chapter, " How they who require to be instructed are to be examine be- fore they are admitted" The extract k a- lol- lows:
 !" Let their manners and their life be inquired into, and whether they be slaves or freemen and If any one be slave let him be asked who is his master? If he be slave of any of the believers, let his master be asked if he can give him good character? If he can not, let him be rejected until he shows himself to be worthy to his master; but if he does give him a good character, let him be taught to please his master, that the word be not blas- phemed"

THE CHRISTIANS CREED.

IdE Cdh1SI1ANS . ChEEU.
List to the dreamy tone that dwells
In ripping wave and signing tree;
Go, hearken to the old clurch bells,
The whistling bird and buzzing bee.
Interpret right, and ye shall find
'Tis Love and Glory they proclaim;
The chimes, the creatures, water, wind,
All publish, Hallowed be Thy Name"
The pilgrim journeys till he bleeds,
To reach the altar Of his sires;
The hermit pores above his beads,
With zeal that never wanes or tires.
But holiest rite or longest prayer,
That soul can yield, or wisdom frame,
What better import can it bear,
Than Father, hallowed be Thy Name"
The savage kncelng to the sun,
To give his thanks or ask boon;
The raptures Of the idiot one,
Who laughs 10 see the clear round moon
The saint well taugh' in Christian lore;
The Moslem 5owing at his fame;
All wonder, worship, and adore;
All end in Ila'lowed be Thy Name"
Whatever be mans faith or creed,
These precious words comprise it still.
We trace them in the blooming mead;
We see them in the flowing rill.
One chorus halls the Great Supreme,
Each varied breathing tells the same;
The stain may differ but the theme
Is '' Father, lalluwed be Thy Name"

readers will generally remember the case Of
Sydney V. Howard, the interesting and pious
Young gentleman who NO ingra,iated himself
with some of our best ,iizens, that he secured
position in the State Bank, whereby he was
enabled to steal fourteen hundred dollars He
was hunted with good deal Of energy and per.
severcnre for some months, but he managed to
elude all efforts to capture him. In the appre.
hension that he was being pursued he travelled
over the whole country, sometimes, he says, in
the very cars with those hunting for him. and
after nearly two years, of this UNHAPPY life. went
to st. Paul, Minnesota. Worn out with dread, he
went to the Marshal of the Territory and told
his case, and asked to be arrested. The officer
remonstra ed told him he had no authority 10
make an arrest that the affair WAS forgotten,
and if he intended to make his remorss good for
anything, he had better set 10 work and earn
money he had criminally got and spent, and pay
the bank and those he had swiudIed: that he
would be better every where than going to the
penitentiary. But Howard was resolule to be
arrested. The officer wroteto this city, and 4
requisition was procured, upon which he was
brought here on Tuesday afternoon. We be-
eve an indictment: is pending against him for
the larceny.

TIE PARIS PRRSS SON THE DISMISSAL OF

The Anglo Amepsan question is examined
with more or less development, by the Paris

a sentiment of ffutRfse at the attitude assumed

All! when reflect that your own declaration
Has blasted the long cherished hopes Of my hesrt,
sigh, but in vain, for that sweet consolation.
Which nought but your love and your smiles can
impart
Your love, fairest angel, tho once to me given,

Yet feel that my rpirit, when borne up to heaven,
Will then be united forever with thine.
Then fare thee well, fare thee well now and frerer;
In deeply-fclt anguish bid thee adeu!
Yet remember told thee, though doom'd thus to
sever,
The heart that gave thee shall ever be true.
