NO RECEPTION WHERE THERE SHOULD HAv
PpPN ONE.

With all our rage for receptions, our citi-
Gems suffered one opportunity for once to pass
u~nimproyed, and really slighted a distinguish
ed officer who has claims ON. his countrymen
which should not be ignored. The Consti-
tuition came into port yesterday with Major
General Rosecrans on board, and not a single
gun was fired, not a committee appointed,
and no demonstration Of welcome Of any
kind made. He was met by no one repre-
seuting the civil or military departments Of
the Government, National or local, and went
to the Occidental with US little show or fuss
as the most humble private citizen. He 10
in good health and excellent spirits, and no
doubt felt glad to escape the bore Of a public
reception /; but 1t strikes me that our citizens
would have done themselves credit by making
some demonstration Of respect to so distin-
guisheda champion Of Liberty and the Union.
BIT OF GOSSIP.
Among the tit bits which have recently
fallen to the gossips of San Francisco, the
sweetest, undoubtedly, is the King vs.. King
affair. | wrote you last week that Mss
Angela King, sister Of the late Rev. T. Starr
King, had made a decided success as a pub.
lie reader, ut Platt's Hall. Now, Il has
transpired- through the medium Of lady
members Of the late Mr.. Kings congregation
that Mrs. King is at swords points with
Miss King, and the two not on speaking
or visiting terms, and that every effort was
made to prevent Miss King from appearing
ut Platt's Hall as q public reader, It being
represented to her that her doing so would
greatly shock the sensibilities Of Mrs. King,
outrage public opinion, and provoke all sorts
OF comments from MRS. Grundy." This
affair was carried on with much spirit, and
messenger after messenger was sent to re-
monstrate and intercede with Miss King, a
Governor and u Judge being among the
number. The last messenger is said to have
been Rev. Horatio Stebbins, Mr.. Kings sue.
cessor, who, on having the whole facts OF the
case, and learning that Miss King supported
herself and mother wholly out OF her earn
ings as a public reader, went over to the side
Of the enemy, and absolutely went so far as
TO tell the lady that he applauded her spirit,
and finally to introduce her to the audience
on the night Of her appearance. Gossip says
much more, which goes more into the Sc
crets Of private life than / care TO report, 50
I stop here. 1t seems as il such things were
bound to happen in the most distinguished
as well as the most humble families. Miss
King gave a second reading at the Academy
of Music last night and achieved fully as
great a success as before. She had over
81, 100 in the house.
NEW ORGAN.
1t is rumored that we are to have a new
"organ" in Sun Francisco-the first attempt
to start one by a portion Of the Administra-
ton party being looked upon by some Of
those originally interested in a pecuniary
manner, as a disastrous failure. It is said
that Fred. Billings is to furnish the capital,
and that it is to be q "strictly first-clasE
morning newspaper" I have seen printers
who have been partially engaged-so they
said-to work on the new "organ," and it is
not impossible that there may be some fire
under all this smoke in spite Of the fact that
such reports are circulated in one form or
another every thirty days the year around.
My own impression is that San Francisco
presents a promising opening for the sinking
Of capital in newspaper enterprises at the
present time, but there may be room for q
new and enterprising journal, nevertheless.
AMrsEMENTs.
There is little which is absolutely new in
the amusement line this week. At Wheat
