q WASHINGTON.
SIR JOHN SINCLAIR Bart
White House, London.
At the Massachusetts booth there WAS
on exhibition the autographs Of the
poets LongeIlow, Whittier and Elmer
son. They also proved an attractive
for that corner. And
while we are just here at the Bay State,
we may as we'll say something about that
dress that Mrs. General Hancock, Mrs.
Leighton wore. 1t was most elegant
one, of blue satin, and about
$50 years old. We doubt if the original
Mrs General Hancock presented as fine
an appearance AS the lady that repre-
scented her last night. General and Mar
tina Washington were entertained at this
booth.
At the South Carolina booth, which, by
the way, is handsomely arranged and
decorated, was offered FOR sale lot Of
oranges, bananas and Spanish
moss, which arrived from South
Carolina yesterday. Miss Aggie
Wilson, Miss BERTHE Caldwell, and the
other ladies connected with this tempo
rary paradice, take great pleasure in dis.
posing of their articles.
TIE INDIANS
were Il sensation. They looked like a
fresh delegation Of Sioux on their way
to Washington to commune with the
Great Father. The costumes and APP
pcarancc were complete, and
could not have been improved. They
were universally commended and added
much to the entertainment. The impcr-
sonutIons were Mr.. j. o. Bates and lady,
Miss Matte Smith and Mr. Jacob Grub.
FLOWERS AND REFRESHMENTS.

Lamb, Miss Belle Armstrong, Mrs.
