wish the heads oi ucst Of the Government

rrluliUJ to te on duty from q. m. until
noon, and by this arrangement some Of those
who homes Grc not far distant arc afforded
au opportunity Of visiting them ut that 10y
Gus season.
Next week thou ands Of tho friends Of the
Clorhg will come here to witness the inaugural
ceremonies. Some will come from a great
distance, aud II Is safe to assume that mum.
bcrs Of them have never seen Washington
before, Many Of them will be the guests Of
the clerks, coming at their Invitation to ro.
main probably throughout the week. Under
such circumstance the visitors will quito
naturally expect TO DO shown about the city
by their clerical acquaintance, who 10 per
form this service properly will be obliged to
neglect their duties to some llttlo extent
\ consideration Of these things prompts u'
to whisper q suggestion to the Cabinet OH

guidance Of a competent Chapcron-a mum

both sexes and Of oil ages spend On ontir
week here and devotlny that time most as
siduously TO slghtscGing, and yet leave tn
city with only the lalntCst conception Of tn
attractions II presents. During the wcel
there promises to be all manner OF enjoy
ments, by day and night professions, re
views and drills, aud balls, parties and rccoI
tions-so that It would seem only fair thu
those who reside here should DO allowed a
