GOrtschakOH ON Catacazy.
LONDON, Jan. 4.-Prince Gortschakoff in
recent communication to Mr.. Curtin, the
American Minister at St. Petersburg, an
nounces that the Russian Government has
concluded to recall Catacazy from Washing
ton. Gortschakoff writes that the difficulty
arose and eliminated during his absence
from the capital. The Prince says he can
not but regret that some of the correspond
ence which passed in regard to the matter
at Washington appeared to be wanting In hte
respect due to the representative of the Rus
sian Empire. He continues:
"We shall consider the conduct of
Catacazy when he has had an opportunity
of presenting his case in person. As he
formally denies the justice of the COM
plants made against him in Washington,
we must suspend judgment until we have
heard his defense"
The Prince in conclusion declares that
these unfortunate circumstances will not,
he feels confident, impair the old and cor
dial friendship between the United States
and Russia, of which there has been so re-
cent a demonstration in the reception of
the Grand Duke Alexis in America.

mrrrrON THE BEST MEAT.

A great many tilleTs of the soil drag out
miserable days, simply because they will
persist in eating salt pork, hams and should
ers in spring and summer, when a dish OF
good mutton would give them new life and
strength, We mean to repeat thousand
times, or at least till what we say has some
effect upon our countrymen, that pound
of lean, tender, juicy mutton can be produ-
ced for half the cost of the same quantity
of fat pork; that it is infinitely healthier
food, especially in the summer season; and
that those who eat it become more muscu-
lar. and can do more work with greater ease
To themselves, than those who eat fat pork.
We know nothing more delicious than
smoked mutton hams of Southdown breed
of sheep,

The Treaty of Washington.

Of the highest praise and adverted to the
alliance between Great Britain and the
United States. The treaty is the leading
topic Of the journals at the present time.
The Advertiser alon= opposes it. 1t de-
clares that the English Commissioners have
been out-witted; that England is bound
hand and feet. If the Geneva Board should
award all that the United States Extensively
claim, war would be less injurious TO Eng
land than a settlement. The AdUertiSer
concludes with an appeal to withdraw from
the treaty, which is an insult to the country.

OF the party came on here to have the
ceremony performed. The wedding was
to take place from the Hotel de Russie,
rue Drouot AT the appointed time, to
the CONSERVATION of the guests, the gay
tenor did not appear, and the wedding
was postponed until further orders. A
letter seon came from Signor VizzaDi.
from on board the steamer, to inform the
lady that he was Oh his way to New York,
having found that he was not rich enough
to marry, and hence felt bound to break
OF the engagement AS the young Lady
has large fortune of her own, which
according to French law would have been
made over to the husband, it is probable
that there were ether reasons than those
gwen for this sudden resolution of the gay
tenor. The Maplesons are still at the

The Originator Of the ranS-COntinental
Railway Scheme.

Most newspaper people of thirty
years ago remember a bustllng little
gentleman who used to beset editors
and publishers for furthering his pro-
ject of trans continental railway from
the Atlantic to the Pacific. It was
pleasant to listen to his enthusiasm on
the theme, but believing, as many did,
that the consummation of the thing was
not within the lifetime of any then liv-
ing, he became to be considered rather
a bore, though the then editor and pub
fishers of the Ledger entertained hls
proposition favorably. That enthusi-
asst, as he was then considered. was Mr..
Asa Whitney, whose death we notice at
Washington some two weeks since He
was formerly engaged in mercantile
business in New York. but has lived in
Washington the past twenty years. He
was about 10 years of age, and has iv-
ed to see accomplished the great
desire of his life, and indeed much more
than he at middle life ever dreamed Of
One entire line of railway across the
continent has been for years in success
full operation, and two others are al
ready under way.-Phiiddeiphid Led
