SOCIAL AMusEMENTs.

At this season OF the. year there is
one continual round Of balls, recep-
tions DC. On Thursday evening the
President gave his third and last recep-
tion for the winter. Visitors generally
go and we were in that class and went.
/, While il Is expected that guests shall
duly honor the Chief Magistrate by ap-
pesring in full dress and looking a5
happy as possible, we were Inclined to
think they do so at considerable Sacri-
fee Of good clothes and personal csfri-
fort. Silk hats and over-c0atS and ike
articles of dress are better kept at your
hotel. You wait an hour ortWo amid
- perfect jan.to. get your hat and coat
checked only to have your new silk
returned to yeu looking as If the porter
had sat down on it, and your coat ex-
changed for another for which you
have no earthly use. For three hgurs
there was stream Of people through
st.se halls, into the Bide room where tie
3 President was stAtiokedss sufging from
side to side only kept In its placs BY
the strong arms of the patient police.
Everybody was ON an equality and en-
dured the jam patiently. Thes Presi-
dent gave each one cordial shake oi
the hand, but he looked wearied. We
think that a whole summer of that or
deal would make him surrender. There
were present large number of the dig
nitaries of the Capitol Secretary Rob.
eson and lady, Secretary Boutwell, and
lady, Attorney General Williams and
lady, Senators TrumbuH and Morton
ana host of Others of equal rank. Mrs
Grant and Miss Nelly We're present and
assisted in the reception. Al promenade
f0rhaif hour through the different par
lers ended the affair. After shaking
hands was over the President gave hi
arm to Mrs. Grant and without paving
much, attention to any one passed
Through the crowd and left the parlors
On the same evening the Ohio Asso
citation gave grand balLat the Mason
ic Hall and for, handsome costume:
and splendid dancing certainly intenC
ne disgrace to our State. We really
feel proud Of Ohio, the position which
she holds at the Capital and the high re
spect paid to her citizens. Mast nov
in Washington isquite lion among
all classes. He is not idle; on Tuesday
OF last week he was present at dinnel
party given by Gen. Chapman an(
lady and greatly amused those pres
ent by his caricatures of himself ane
Others present. ,.;-laf
The general feeling upon various top
les, the prospects Of Grants renomina
s ton and many other things are, item
of special interest which we shall motto,
hereafter. q II

three ofthe Dem ocrats returned, and
lsoon the boilers We're all present. The
main question was then put, and all the
Democrats but one refused to vote
| Their names were called again, with
the same result; and Sayler declared
lentitied To his seat. The clerk was then
directed to enter upon the journal the
names fthose present who without be-
ing excnsed mad refused to vote, which
was done. Two members, Young,
Republican and Jenner, Democrat then
rose to address the Chair. The Chair
lreeognized Young. 5Jenner then walk
ed up In front OF. the President, and
branishing his fists cried aloud: "You
saw me FIST Sir, yes youdid, you look
ed me right in the eye, Sir; you ought
to be dragged from that chair" Young
held the floor, and demanded that Say
Ter should be sworn in. Sayler step
ped forward, and as the President ad-
miuistered the oath the Democrats yell
ed like so many Indians in war dance,
so that not single word could be dis
| lfinguished. But Sayler was sworn in.
| Upon motion Senate was declared adj
iiourned. The exasperated Democrats
Jumped up on their desks, and assailed
1.-THE President with the direst of curses
and invective. The Sergeant-at-arms
tried to arrest Shift, who. was raw
ling like "a madman, but 9TH
lers damned him to stand of.
THE tempest could not be queiIed;
and some of the most enraged seemed
determined to protract the pand
fum as long as possible, even after ad-
Ijeurnment, by continuing to stand ON
THE desks and pour out their yials of
wrath upon the President. They never
would speak to him, nor shake hands
with him, nor recognize him on the
street, evermore, DC. Finallyitoccurred
to them to hold a caucus in the evening;
and then they dispersed. sts.5t
! At the caucus they resolved not to
associate with Mueller, and to protest
against Sayler's voting, on. every oc-
eazion. They also appointed q COM

A Case fer the Doctors.

The Boston Transcript reports the follow
ing:
A singular case came under the notice of
DR.. John b. Thayer at East Cambridge on
TnuI sday. He was called to a house on
Charles street to attend an old lady, Mrs
Mary Carton. who was there living with both
thighs fractured. The patient is seventy-six
years old and bedridden, though not trou-
bled with any specific disease. While her
daughter was assisting her to rise noise
like the swapping of a whip was heard, fol
lowed by one of similar character and the
old lady suddenly sank to the floor Upon
examination. both thigh bones were :ound
to be fractured. There was no abrasion of
the skin or external mark visible The doe
tor states the cause of the fractures to be
from muscular contraction occasioned by
long disuse of those functions, and though a
Similar case has never come under his i'm
medal observation, it is matter of record
that such cases have been known; but they
are extremely rare. The age of the patient
and her peculiar physical condition will pre-
vent the proper knitting together of the
bones, but everything that medical skill can
devise for her amelioration has and will be
done
