Chicago Times Correspondence.
Ever since the time of Polk the Nationa
hotel hops have been known as the most en-
joyable gatherings of the kind in the capital.
In 1851 and 1852, see by ancient yellow
cards that Henry Clay and John Hale figured
as floor managers. In these olden times at
the hotel hops the fascinating Mrs. Critten-
den was seen. And the Princess Salm- Salm
yelled her glorious black eyes and set the
men wild by her rich tropical beauty. Here
the stately Lady Napier watched her lords
firtations with fascinating American, and
Mme LIE Vert sported her wondlous toilets.
The Princess Salm- Salm, am told, once.
after dancing all night, received word that
Prince Salm-Salm, with his regiment, was
Just across the river in Virginia. She went
at early dawn to meet them and rode through
the streets of Washington by her husband s
side. at the head of his men. Cheers and
crowds followed the beautiful woman, who
at that time was said to be the most fearless
horse woman in America. She led gay
life, and died sudden death. Nine. LIE
Vert, poor and friendless, not long ago babe
adieu to earth's vanities. Lady Napier's
heavy heart is at rest. Mrs. Crittenden kept
hold Of life as paralyt;c long time, but at
last loose her grasp, and sank into her long
quiet sleep. But the places in the parlor of
the old National, where the celebrated of
other days were wont to strip the light
fantastic toe,'' are taken up by men and
women as gay and elegant as those of vore.
Mrs. Crittenden, the pretty wife of the mem
Der from Missouri, trailed, at the first hop
of the season of 1873, her rich velvet over
the floor where once her kins-woman stood.
The old crop Of beauty has been gathered
and turned to dust; but here stands another

a DELUSION.

The Reform, 1Thich Put in ID. 8. Hall
Lake City Sentinel.
The special correspondent of the St. Paul
Dispatch, writing from Washington says
D. S. Hail. backed by our entire delegation
is not yet land officer of the Litchfeld Office,
the trouble is, there is a young Braden, son
or nephew of the deceased officer, and
Schurz claims that civil service reform de-
mands his promotion, he having been a
faithful clerk in said Office.
The 'sYoung Braden'' referred to by the
Dispatch correspondent is brother of the
deceased officer, and pre-eminently the best
man in the State in the republican ranks,
for the position. He has had seven or eight
years experience as clerk in the Office, and
of late years did all the business pertaining
to the Office in manner which reflected
credit upon its management. Copp's Land
O1oner, real estate monthly printed in
Washington, and fully conversant with land
Office business, says that Mr.. ]. O. A. Braden,
is young man of 'srare executive ability
The only recommendation that D. S. Hall
has lies in the fact that he was one of Straits
loudest mouthed and foulest mouthed bench
men, and his appointment will only tend to
prove that civil service reform in Minnesota
is delusiOn.

THE RIGHT OF INSTRUCTION.

Lamar's refusal to obey the instructions of
the people of Mississippi, as expressed by the
State Legislature, to vote for the silver bill,
raises the question of the right of instructions
and the consequent duty of obedience The
subject has been the occasion of angry dis
mentary history.
Whatever differences of opinion may have
existed as to the expediency Of its exercise,
few have doubted the existence of the right.
Burke refused to obey the instructions of the
electors of Bristol, but at the next election
was retired in consequence, The question,
was Sir Robert Peel representing the Uni
versity of Oxford, in 1929, bound to resign
rather than present the bill for the relief of
the Roman Catholics, has been argued pro
and con, again and again. Mr.. Leigh in
favor and DR.. Leibur against, have exhaust
ed the arguments on either side.
We do not propose to resume the argu-
ment. It is sufficient to say that the Dem
ocratic doctrine, and the doctrine Of Mr..
Lamar's party, has always been in favor of
the right of instruction and its relative duty.
Government is the will of the people; they
are not bound by laws to which they have
not assented, else the representatives might
make laws for themselves alone; the represen-
tatlves are elected for their opinions, and are
mere agents to execute the will of their prin-
cipals, and refusing to do this, they should
resign-this is Democratic doctrine. If the
personal convictions of the agent differ, lei
