STOCKS DULL AND STRONG.

The stock market was exceedingly dull. In late
street transactions New York Central declined TO
e2, on the report that tile extra fare bill had been
killed IN the Legislature As the advance IN the
stock upon the introduction OF the bill was trling
the decline In price the announcement OF its de-
feat was corrcspondingly small. Lake Shore sold
down to ss. owing to the alleged discovery OF
infraction Of the charter granted by the State OF
Pennsylvania to the cleveland and Erie Railway be-
tore its absorption by ana consolidation with the
other lines now constituting the Lake Shore The
decline led to weaker feeling In st. Paul; but was
otherwise devoid OF influence. The Northwestern
shares were moderately active, the common being
strong &c 73k. Pittsburg was higher. Boston,
Hartford and Erie was strong In the miscellaneous
snares Pacific Mall sold at 37, but subsequently de-
cliaed to 81. Western Union advanced to 32X. The
Governor Of Maryland having signed the bill

An original letter, just published for
the first time, gives some interesting
glimpses of the habits and opinions of the
Father of His Country. While the Fed
eral city was building, the Legislature OF
Pennsylvania voted the President house,
hoping, perhaps, to keep the seat of gov
eminent in Philadelphia. The house
formerly occupied as the University of
Pennsylvania was accordingly built for
that purpose. But as soon as Gen. Wash
ton saw its dimensions, and good while
before it was finished, he let it be known
that he would not occupy it-that he GER
tainly should not go to the expense of pur-
chasing suitable furniture for such dwell
ing and hired instead a modest but CON-
Portable residence.
The President ate Indian cakes for
breakfast, after the Virginia fashion, al
though buckwheat cakes were generally
on the table. Washington's dining
parties were entertained in a very hand
some style. His weekly dining day, for
company, was Thursday, and his dining
hour was always 4 o'clock in the after
noon. His rule was to allow five minutes
for the variation of clocks and watches,
and then go to the table, be present or alb.
sent whoever might He kept his own
clock in the hall, just within the outward
door, and always exactly regulated
When tagging members of Congress came
in, of they often did, after the guests
had as down to dinner, the Presi
dents only apology was: "Gentle
men (or Sir), we are too punctual for you
have a cook who never asks whether tn'
company has come, but whether the houl
has come" He was always dressed IN
suit of black, his hair powdered, and tIe(
in black queue behind, with a verl
elegant dress sword, which he wore witt
inimitable grace. Mrs. washington
often, but not always, dined with tn
company, sat at the head OF the table, ant
if, as was occasionally the case, Their
were other ladies present, they sat eacl
side of her The President sat halt wa
from the head to the foot of the table
and on that side he would place Mrs
Washington, though distant from him, o
his right hand. He always, unless
clergyman were present, asked blessin
in standing posture If clergyma
was present, he was requested both to as
blessing and to return thanks aft'
