Nut for the Germans AMI Irish,


In all our travels through the north,
and all our intercourse With northern
radicals, we have yet to meet the first
one who does not base his arguments
in favor of negro equality on the broad
statement that 'the negro is rs good as
the Dutch and the irish, and rs much
entitled to political and civil rights MS
they.n We have heard it time and
again, hut always with disgust, because
of its untruth and the insult il con-
veyed to n large proportion of the best
citizens of the United States. Recently
the question Of social rights came be-
fore the Unit&l States senate for con-
sideration, and in the debate theradical
senator Pratt, of Indiana, spoke ~
follows:
1t has seemed to me most surprising
thug that the people who 'declaim
against what they call negro equality
are never heard to start any objection

The First wedding IN the white House

The first marriage ut the white house
was in the year 1920, when Miss Maria
Monroe, youngest daughter of Presi-
dent Monroe, was married to her c0us-
i'm. Samuel l.. Gouverneur Of New
York, private secretary ofthepresident.
Mr.. Monroe had married soon after the
revolution Miss Elizabeth Kotright, of
the city of New York, very II beauti-
full woman. Her sister, also belle,
married Nicholas Gouverneur, an emf
nent merchant of that city, of Hugue-
not descent
AT the time of his marriage with
Miss Monroe, Mr.. Samuel |. Cover
neur was twenty years OF nge, very
handsome and very opulant. Miss
Monroe was seventeen, and had been
educated in Paris, and was endowed
with the hereditary grace and beauty
of the Kotrights. Her elder sister,
Eliza, was educated at Nine. Campan's
famous school in Paris where she was
the associate and friend of the beauti-
iul Hortepse Beauharnais, subsequent
iy queen of Holland, and mother of
Napoleon the third. Eliza Monroe
married the Hon, George Hay, Of Nir-
giDia, and their daughter, Hortensia,
named for the queen Of Holland, n
beautiful girl, married Lloyd Nicholas
Rogers, OF Baltimore, the inhertor Of
that superb estate "Druid Hill" now
SO widely admired as Druid Hill Park.
The marriage Of Miss Monroe an
Mr.. Gouverneur was private. The
members Of the cabinet were not invit.
ed. Only the relatives and personal
friends of the two families were pres
ent. They were married in the oval
reception room, and, as we are inform
ed, by Mrs. Gouverneur, of Washing
ton, stood upon the figure ofthe Ameri-
can eagle worked in the French carpet
that covered the floor of the apartment.
The east room, in those days, was used
as ~ play rooln by the children, Mr..
Eorc6rah, the Washington banker, re-
members it in Madison's time as
roughly plastered, with the CROSS marks
of the trowel everywhere on the walls,
and furnished with u few old chairs
with dilapidated seats. 1t remained
In this shabby condition under Mr..
Monroe and Mr., Adams, and was first
completed and finished during General
Jackson's first term, about twenty-five
years ago.
The cost of lighting the reception
rooms at the White house with wax
candles, in Mr.. Monroe's time, was 500
q night Twelve wood fires were re-
quired in winter to warm the apart.
ments occupied by the family.
The marriage ceremony of Miss Mon
roe and Mr.. GqnyerneUrwas perRrmed
by Rev. DR. Hawley, of st. Johns
church. He was one Of the old school,
and wore knee breeches and shoe buck,
lea. In the war of lal9 he commanded
company Of divinity students in New
York, enlisted for the protection of the
city. Being ordered to the frontier, he
refused to go, and resigned his COM
mission. Some people in derision styled
him "Captain Hawley." Decatur
would not attend hisj church because
he ''refused to obey orders"
