Quaint Quadrilles.

Ths Washington correspondent of the
New York Times, writes under date of Feb
ruary 8:
Mr. David Dudley Fields Committee on
the Powers and Privileges of the House,
having failed to elicit any testimony dam
aging 10 the Republican party, or the cause
of President elect Hayes, has begun to
amuse himself by inquiring into the private
lite and recreation Of the gentlemen who,
at the request of the President of the
United States, went to Louisiana to witness
the count of the Returning Board. 1t will
be remembered that Mr.. Ditty was one OF
the gentlemen who went to New Orleans at
the request of the President, and on behalf
of the Republican party, to witness the pro-
ceedings Of the Returning Board.
This fact was brought out in the evidence,
when Mr.. Sparks, who was acting as chair
man of the committee, was prompted by
some evil disposed person to ask the wit.
ness if be had attended any balls while in
New Orleans. Eyes, sir" said MIR. Dirty,
very frankly, Il was at one dance given by
some very light eolOred people," "Oh,
then, you we're one of those who went to
the black women's hop, abOSt which so
much has been saidl'' exclaimed Mr..
Sparks. EYES," replied the witness, II
was, if you call quadroons black women"
This answer created much merriment
among the loOmful of spectators, and Mr..
Sparks, sitting back in his chair with as
much apparent satisfaction as if he had
discovered gold mine, asked: $50, then,
this was the way the Republican statesmen
from their families, and took the oppor-
tunity to 90 to balls given by coiored
women ~ II told my wife all about it,
replied Mr.. Duty, amid q roar of laughter.
Then Mr.. Sparks, not content to let well
enough alone, asked, "Were there any
other Republican representatives PRESENT.
The witness said that he did not know.
tWas Senator Sherman present." asked
MIR. Sparks. ''No, sir, he was not" was the
emphatic answer. WAS General Garfield
PRESENT. was the next question. mo,
air. he was not" was again the au-
swer. At this point Mr.. Field, having sense
enough to see that no more good could come
to his side from further testimony, was
about to dismiss the witness. The Repub-
hcan members of the committee seemed
willing 10 allow this 70 be done, when, sud
denly, Judge Lawrence asked the witness
II Judge Trumbuli and other Dem Oerats
were not also present at the ball referred 20.
Mr.. Dltty replid with much eagerness, sob,
yes; Judge Trumbull was there. and so was
Gov. Palmer, OF Illinois. and both Of them
danced with the girls. For moment there
was an almost painful silence Ia the com
migtee room. and then. as the spectators re-
called old Mr.. TfumbulPs white hair and
lank WitheFed form, and imagined him
dancing with q blooming New Orleans
a1adfO0n, they broke into q shout Of
laughter which could not be controlled OF
suppressed. When some degree Of quiet
was restored, and the democrats had time
10 consider how terribly they had "put theii
foot 10 liz Mr. Sparks, with great deal o.
embarrassmenr, made an effort TO throw
mantle Of charity over his gay old FRIEND
