Webster is generally adopted as the best an

These items by no means include all the
expenditures for the White House. The
ordinary Executive expenses are not easy 10
get at, for they are purposely covered up by
being mixed with other matters; bat we
presume that the annual expense of main
tanning the Chief Magistrate considerably
exceeds one hundred thousand dollars
In addition to all this, there are always
large sums Of money at the Presidents dis.

those we have mentioned would allow them,

fortunes with these appropriations in their

How the President Lives,

1t is generally supposed that the President
Of the United States receives from the
Treasury his salary Of twenty-five thousand
dollars year and nothing more; and it has
been a question how, upon that sum, the
occupants Of the Office could live, and bear
the expenses inseparable from the position.
Tyler, fillmore, Pierce, and Buchanan not
only lived, but saved money out of their
salaries. The fact is, nearly all the expenses
of the Wihii;;cc House are paid by Congress-
The President has no rent to pay. Congress
furnishes his house for him, even to the
smallest article of kitchen and table furni,
ture. 1t supplies his fuel, pays his gas bill,
pays all his servants, supports his stable,
and maintains his flower garden and kitchen
garden, his Conservatives, and his pleasure
grounds. Even his balls and dinner parties
are paid for out Of the public purse.
Some idea of the amount expended by
Congress for the support of The President
may be formed by considering the following
items in the last appropriation bill
Fuel for the Presidents house..... SO. 600
Painting Tor the President house. 5000
