WASHINGTON, Dec. 2S.
ON New Years bay
it is a custom for all officers of the army in this
city 10 call upon the President in a body, with
the senior officer in command here at their
head.
General Grant
is not only the head of the army, but senior
officer in command here, his headquarters being
at present in Washington. There is much
speculation as to the course Grant will pursue
with reference to this custom next Friday. 1t
is known that he and johnson have not spoken
together since
The Famous Correspondence
growing out of Grants surrender of the War
Office to Stanton. 1t is understood that Grant
proposes to get rid Of the unpleasantness of
meeting with the President by being absent
from the city on New Years Day. There IS a
story to the effect that
General SchOGeId,
Secretary of War, has undertaken the delicrte
office of peacemaker between General Grant
and President Johnson. Inquiry in circles
likely to be well informed upon such matters
reveals the fact that Schodeld has never thought
of such thing, and has no intention OF doing so.

aged city OF Burlington was made joyous to q
large number OF It's small Inhabitants by the
celebration of the day at the College. These
young lads, under the supervision of the Rev.

College, had the day made both merry and
memorable TO them by the many kind acts of
of the rector and the officers of the College.
What with their "roast turkey" their Christ
mas tree with its presents, their singing and
their entertainments, and refreshments IN the
pRrlor furnished by the officers of the College,
the bcys, though away from home, here found
one amid the merry scenes, prepared for them
by their teachers and friends.

MAID SERVANT DREssKs-The English
papers are calling for a reform in the dress of
CLOVER class females, and maid servants in
particular" Ladies of rank, it seems, feel
themselves injured by the presumption of ser.
want girls. There is a demand, therefore,
among the upper classes for a dress reform in
the lower classes. 1t is complained, too, that
the girls spend all their earnings upon ribbons
and feathers. The Saturday Rerie,O, however,
very sensibly reminds the upper classes that
they have a mote in their own eye and says
that the reform can be brought about in one
way only: ssThe reaction in favor of neat and
simple style must come from above, and not
from below-in the way of example, not pre-
cept. When ladies Of fortune and position
cease to lavish their thousands on millinery,
their copyists in the nursery and kitchen will
cease to spend their wages on a similar object"
