LETTER FROM BOISE CITY.
BOISE Cry, Dec. "a, 1877


Ed. World: Christmas festivi-
ties commenced tonight with Christ
mas trees, Jacobs Ladder, &C., under
the auspices of the Episcopal Church.
The young folks were made glad with
numerous presents, and many of the
older ones, also, were sent on their
way rejoicing. The proceedings com
menced with singing Christmas carols
by the choir, consisting of the Misses
Cartee, Jacobs, Redway and others Of
the fair, and Messrs. Penny and Ri
nearson, of the sterner sex. The pi.|
ano was presided over by the young
and fair Miss ;Nellid Smith, who played
the various airs with more than her
usual grace and execution. Little
Bess Treadwell and Master Neddie
Hasbrouck brought down the house
in speaking their pieces. It was very
we'll done, indeed Ross Cartee, as
Santa Claus, with his shaggy beard
and coat, played his part to perfection.
The Land Office imbroglio is still
the topic, and the general sentiment is
that they must fight it out among
themselves. The letter of Timoney in
the WORLD caused intense excitement.
Dir. Smith reports the health Of the
town vastly improved. The eases IN
der his care are all doing well So
far, the worthy Doctor has been uni-l
formly successful in treating the dips
iberia patients. So, Of course, be has
all the work be can attend to. More

icy in relation to the administration

propose to change il until he was sat
istied that il was wrong. Mr.. Key,

What the London Press Says of
the inaugural.

LONDON, March 6.--The inaugural
of President Hay s, which is publish
ed here in full this morning, has crra-
ted very favorable impression. The
13mrS says: "Of course general prin-
ciples do not help much to cool the
angry passions which have been sect b.
ing for years, but there is a time for
the statement of principles, as we'll as
of details, and it is but fair to remark
that, as far as they 90, the principles
President Hayes enunciates are excel
lent.
The Telegraph says: "Mr. Hayes
comments on the election ordeal,
winch put such a severe strain on the
Constitution, are such as become n
President who, from the moment be
takes the oath of Office, should belong
to all parties. On the whole, we do
not imagine that even his candid Op.
ponents will complain of the tone and
temper of the address, which deals
with questions of the highest moment
primarily to America, and indirectly
to all the world. Mr.. Hayes speaks
with the dignity and frankness be-
coming the chief magistrate of great
people, and points the way to ends
which, if they can be accomplished
VIII rebound to his honor and that of
his country"

ing of me the sacrifice of my personal

name can be used for the good of die
South, in your best Judgment you are
At liberty to use it. If | become q
litember of an Administration should
not feel myself at liberty to place my
self in opposition to its general policy,
but should feel bound to build up and

our people by an independent posi-
ton, and IL as | hope and believe, the
Administration will develop a broad
and liberal policy toward the people

incorporate my fortunes and myself

This letter was before President
Hayes last night, when he had con-
sulTation with Mr.. Key prior to his
final selection as Postmaster-General.
