4 LUXURIOUS SANCTUM

The Baltimore American describes as fol
lows the sanctum sanctorm of the editor
and proprietor of the PHILADELPHIA Ledger:
Mr. George W ChiIds, Of the Ledger,
recently annexed an apartment adjoining his
private office, which has become too small to
accommodate his visitors on business con
nected with that prosperous journal. The
room has been fitted up in such an ornate and
luxurious style that its equal as a business
office cannot be found in this country, if in
the world. The style adopted much re
sembles that made fashionable by the cottage
in the Centennial grounds, built for the
English Commissioner and was designed by
Mr.. Macarthur, the architect. The walls are
filled i'll with oaken pannelng to the hight of
eight feet, above which they are covered with
paper hangings of the English style, though
manufactured here. The mantlepiece, also
of oak. is ornamented with rccumbent figures
of Venus and Cupid, the latter escaping with
an hour glass in his chubby hand The fire
place is a gem, both as to design and superior
workmanship. An oblong case of polished
steel to contain wood or coal, as fuel, hangs
suspended from crane, in the fashion of
bygone days. The fire irons stand for the
shovel and ton@s and coal scuttle are all
ornamental in the most elaborate manner,
anu Will Dear examination as true NOlkS OF
art. There are three large plate glass win
dows on the Sixth Street front, but there is
an oaken screen with an archway i'll the
center and opening above, which forms an
alcove between it and the windows This
screen is continued up to the ceiling, the
upper portion being filled with stained glass.
The colors of the paper hanging accord with
the brocatele window curtains chairs, and
sofas. The ceiling is covered with stucco work
of charming design, the color harmonizing
with the furniture. On one side of the room
is ebony cabinet of English make within
which are rare objects of vertu an curiosities.
Within the alcove is an ancient clock,
which, though it has been ticking for
two centuries, has been so rejuvenated in
appearance that its actual age is not apparent.
Portraits of Messrs. Childs and Drexel with
antique armor and shields and statuettes,
adOn the walls or are scattered about the
room. This apartment was first used by Gen.
Grant as a reception room during his recent
visit to this city, having frequently taken
shelter to escape the crowds that gathered
around him and interfered with the freedom
of his movements. The apartment presents
an interior of surprising richness, and the
fidelity with which the plans of the architect
have been executed reflects great credit on
the workmen intrusted with the work

A QUEER STORY ABOUT THE ORDS.

Everybody, i'll the country knows who Gen
eral Ord is. Pretty much all old Californians
know his brother, Judge Pacificus Ord The
New Orleans Democrat relates the following
Gen Ord, now in command of the United
States troops on the RIO Grande, is grand
son of George ". and the actress Mrs Fitz-
herbert, to whom he was married by a CathO-
lie priest while Prince Regent. The consent
of Parliament had not been given, and the
marriage was illegal in English law. A son
was born by this union and consigned to the
care of a tutor named Ord, who emigrated
with him to this country The youth took
the name of his tutor, and married Virginia
or Maryland lady, by whom he had two sons,
Atlanticus and Pacifcus. The first was sent
to West Point, and is the General on the Rio
Grande. The second became a lawyer in
New Orleans, and emigrated to California
twenty-five Years ago, where he is Judge.

and we are prepared to believe that there is
some foundation in fact for the foregoing
statement
OF the fashion with which an oer winsome
coquette of his tribe first bedazzled and then
bereft a love-lorn Shoshone, the Reveille re-
lates as follows:
While walking down Main street this fore
noon in search of a startling item for these
columns, we were very forcibly struck with
the detected appearance of stalwart son of
the sage-brush, and with the hope of being
able to administer balm to his troubled spirit
we approached him and after considerable
pressing succeeded in extracting the following
pitiabie tale; He had been for some time en-
gagged to pretty squaw, and soon expected
to have his hopes and anticipations of perfect
bliss realized in the consolidation of their i'm
mense fortunes(a mustang and two sacks Of
pine nuts), and this morning he went to the |
widkiup of the parents of the brida-elect to |
claim his own. But, alas, the bird had flown.
His dear Tsa- ut-weih had played him falsely,
She told him to fix a day and on the day pre-
,eeding she eloped with another Now he
