Thar SUPPER.-The supper served at
Grifith's new store room FRIDAY night, by
the ladies of the Presbyterian church,
was largely patronized. The public
crowded IN till late hour. The large
r4om, portion of the time, was crowd
ed full, and the result must have been
very satisfactory to the treasury OF the
ladies' society. Provisions OF the best
kinds and in great variety were abund
ant: FEST furnished portion OF tho
oysters, and the balance and the fine eel
ery came from Ricc's fish and oyster de
not. They were excellent, and the rcpu
tation of these caterers in bivalves wa
fully sustained, so was that of the Pres
byterian ladies as cooks.

DREssING THE HAIR,


There never was such liberty in dress
ing the hair. You may wear it in any
way you please and yet be fashionable.
High, low, medium, ornate or simple,
just as your fancy for the moment, may
dictate. hope, however, that these
lines will not meet the eye Of any indi-
vidual who wears either the French twist
or long curls, for such individual would
seem to be irreclaimable and utterly
past hope in so far as fashion is concern.
ed. Short curls, on the other hand, are
very stylish and mix in prettily almost
anywhere. And do let me entreat you
furthermore, my good sisters, TO vary the
mode of arranging your hair. DO moi
always have it either high, low or any
other way Let it be sometimes one
thing, sometimes another. We dom
always wanta to see the same ex
preston on your faces, and there il
nothing more tiresome than hair Away.

Of the Supreme Court aud notable Senators and

Of the east steps Of the capitol while fifty thou

Ebon G l0gersoll was Mrs Grants escort, and
little Nellie Grant stood by his side while her
father read iu a voice scarcely audible to him

finished well remember how naturally and

side and kissed him. She was dressed in blue
silk, and her bright golden hair hung 10 pro-
fusion about her shoulders. II was a touching
sight. She was led from the platform by
Schuyler Colfa2 and her father each holding
her by the hand, while Chief Justice Chase
congratulated Mrs Graut. Nellie was then
