Rogers, of the Executive Mansion

Rogers, of the Executive Mansion
will spend the summer at Gettysburg.
This distinguished citizen of Ohio, who
has gained such renown as the Presi-
dents Private Secretary-being the
most complete Private Secretary of
which history gives any account
could not find more delightful place
to go for rest for his weary but power
full brain. To be sure, Rogers will not
find so many sweet flowers at Gettys-
burg as in the conservatory at the
Executive Mansion; but, as there are
no lovely actresses al Gettsburg either,
Rogers will make ample preparation
for the safe and proper administration
of public affairs during his absence at
bis summer trysting-place. Those
newspapers that are now going to the
Executive mansion for nothing! as re-
quested by Rogers, should change
their address to Gettysburg.

MENUS s. Vanderbilt against VIM. H. Van
derbiIt, as residuary legatee of the estate of
the late Commodore Vanderbilt, was on
argument for several hours to-day in the
Supreme Court Chambers. 1t came up on
a motion for the defendant to strike out
several parts of the complaint, such as
plaintifFs interest in the residue of the real
and personal estate, &C.. as facts plaintiff
had no right to state as redundant, and to
consolidate inte one the three apparently
different causes OF action set forth, which
defendant says are substantially the same,
hut If suffered to stand would give right
to force Judgment for S3.000O00 instead of
81 100000, which is tne amount claimed.
The decision was reserved.
