met q very cordial reception. The philosopher

countenance OF the one in strange contrast
with the wiry, nervous and somewhat delicate
face of the other.
Mr.. Davis was dignifed and somewhat for

easy and qHite talkative. There was scarcely

The Patriot newspaper of Washington
which was established about year ago as a
national Democratic organ, appears to have
been chiefly owned until very recently in
New York by members of the Tammany ring
and its financial prospects were seriously af-
feeted by the breaking up of that model Dem
ocratic organization. There has also been
some depreciation in stock for Senator Tweed
recently sold his $4,000 worth for $500 to
Mr.. Corcoran, but it is really worth about
$4,000. Samuel j. Tilden and Senator Cas-
serly have obtained control of ex-Controller
Connolly's, which with Tilden's own and
Tweed's constitute majority of the, stock.
1t is said that George Lunt, late of the Bos-
ton Courier, has been rendered the position
of editor-in-chief from which Col. Jefries is
now displaced, having held it six weeks.
