met and those of the army and navy
stationed here. Besides these engage
ments, their time has been pretty well
filled up with the farewell calls of the
numerous Ohioans and other Western
visitors who accompanied the Presiden-
tial party to Washington. Formal re-
ceptions have also been granted the Co.
lumbus cadets, the Pennsylvania and
other military associations who formed
part of the inaugural procession on Mon
day. Owing to these leavetakings, the
city and hotels in particular have lost
their warlike appearance temporarily
acquired by the presence Of so many
uniformed guests. About the social
hospitalities of the present incumbents
Of the White House it is noticeable that
pleasant change has occurred.
Whether derived from inclination or
force of habit, the character of General
Grants entertainments were often SO
entrenched around with military and
executive forms, and so much resembled
ahallo Va bEaLCf kll1b tlalloiCub NASlIOIS W
the Republican court were not always
pleasantly impressed. So rarely did
they witness a cordial reception or gen.
ial word or smile that it was a matter
for remembrance or newspaper COM
ment when such happy event occurred.
Now the patriarchal and courteous, fa-
miliar ways of "Uncle Abe" seem to
have returned, and whatever of reti-
cence or precision that characterized
General Grants regime now bids fair to
disappear under the winsome smile and
! pleasant, affable word and action of both
master and mistress of the White House.
Both have had their patience and pow
ers of endurance thoroughly tested this
week, for there has been but one contin-
ual round of receptions since Monday
! installed them. Crowds of visitors have
filled the ante-rooms waiting opportu-
mites to see them, and their numbers
have been so great as to compel the rule
that the public can only be received in
the afternoon. Lent has not sufficed to
restrain the American citizen from pay
ing his regards to his Chief Magistrate.
Yesterday was but a sample of the la
bors imposed on Mrs. Hayes. She first
received large delegation of ladies
from Indiana in the Red Room; then a
similar delegation from Pennsylvania;
then proceeding to the East Room, she
and Mr.. Hayes bid goodbye to the Co.
lumbus cadets, shaking hands with each
and speaking a kind word to some ia
miliar face. Last night a reception was
given the officers of the army, navy,
and marine corps stationed here, Ad-
miral Porter acting as master of cere-
monies in presenting each one to the
President and Mrs. Hayes and her as
sistants. For elegance of toilet among
the ladies, brilliant uniforms of officers,
and splendor of everything pertaining
to the occasion, this reception has never
been surpassed, and we can easily imag-
inc what little difficulty would be expe-
rienced in turning a Republican court
into one of the purely aristocratic.

MIR. Culver's Meanness.

Mr.. Culver and wife, nice old couple
from Vermont landed in New York the
other day tor few days sojourn. Both
were respectfully dressed, and people who
saw them walking up and down Broadway,
gazing up at the spire of old St. Paurs, or
looking into the shop windows, remarked
that they were cozy pair.
For the fret few days, they were always
in company on the streets, but the next day
the old man made alone trip down into the
Bowery naturally enough, he fell in with
the clOthiers, and when he got through with
them the change was startling. A silk hat
replaced his straw, and he had on a wide
collar and a blue tie; his coat shone as only
a Bowery coat can, and the twenty-five inch
buttons of his plaid pants wasped around
his ankles like grain bags around sticks.
What his wife said as he returned to bis
hotel will never be known. Perhaps she
was glad, perhaps she fell into chair and
sobbed out something about poorhouse.
However, both were walking around the
post office together this morning-he IN all
his gorgeousness, she in her same "best
suit" They didn't keep step, but the old
man kept a little ahead Of her, aud 1t was
noticed that he did not turn bis head when
he answered her questions.
1t coon dawned upon her mind that be
was trying to lead the public to believe she
was a stranger to him, and that. having q
new suit, he felt ashamed Of her. This
nettled her, and as they passed along the
City hall park, she called out:
Husband, don't walk 30 fast"
"Hush, keep still ~ he said, looking the
other way.
'sHusband, what did you say |" she in
quired, laying her hand on his arm.
"Shet up your noise!" he Kissed, making
for the curb-stone.
whats that What did you say to me,
John Culver ?" she demanded.
"Don't you know anything, Lucy Fol-
Ter along vnd keep still. First thing you
know you'll be arrested"
"John Culver, see here" she exclaimed
catching hold of his coat tails and bringing
him to halt "now, then, are you asham-
ed of me ?"
"You see-hum-well, you see" j he
stammered, looking her over with criti-
cal eye.
Snow, you good-for- nothing old grander!
see here, che replied in voice meant to
go right through him; I'm going to take
your arm and parade up and around, and
if you don't walk as straight as peg, or If
you give one more sassy word, I'll take your
fine buds off of you right here In the road y
"But, Lucy"
"Not word, not look, not shivsr !"
she commanded. Remember how you
came out last spring, when yod wanted the
gate shut, and wanted it open Now,
sir, march long !"
She Rugged close up to him, and he
marched.

CATARRH.
TWELVE YEARS
OF SUFFERING

entlemen-About twelve years ago, while
travelling with Father Kemp's Old Folks Con-
cert Troupe, as n tenor singer, took severe
cold and was laid up at Newark, N. j. This cold
brought on a severe attack of Catarrh, which
battled with every known remedy for four
weeks without avail, and was finally obliged TO
give up most desirable position and return
homo unable to sing note. For three years
afterwards was unable TO sing at all. The
first attack of Catarrh had left my nasal or.
gans and throat 30 sensitive that the slightest
cold would bring on a fresh attack, leaving me
Frustrated. In this way continued to suffer.
The last attack, the severest ever had, was
terrible. l suffered the most excruciating pain
able to speak, and coughed necessarily. I
thought was going into quick consumption,
and firmly believe had these symptoms con.
tlnued without relief, they would have rend-
cred me an easy victim. When In this distress
ing condition, commenced the use OF SAM
FORD's RADICAL CURE FOR CATARRH, very re-
luctlantly, confess, as had tried all the adj
vertised remedies without benefit. The first
dose OF this wonderful medicine gave me great
relief. It is hardly possible for one whose
head aches eyes ache, who can scarcely artic-
ulate distinctly on account OF the choking ac-
cumulations in his throat, to realize how much
relief obtained from the nrst application of
SANFORD's RADICAL CURE. Under Its influence,
and by an occasional use OF the remedy since
have been entirely free from Catarrh. for the
first time In twelve years.
