TIT PoR TAT.-The San Francisco Bulletin re
Gently amused its readers at our expense about a
lot of 8 8 stogy brogans - that some Chinaman had
imported here, the heels of which being unscreWed
revealed a cavity supposed to have contained opium
The brogans we're re-exported to San Francisco,
and the Custom House officers, in appraising their
value, discovered the fraud that had been put upon
our folks. OF course there was a good deal Of chuck
ling over the greenness of Hawaiian Custom House
officials, on the part of our Frisco friends. But by
the Lady Lampson. which arrived the other dan
from the last named port, was received several bales
of Chinese wrapping paper. They had been brought
from China to San Francisco, consigned to a Chinese
firm there, which subsequently shipped them to
Honolulu. When the bales were opened here it was
found that in the centre Of each q square hole had
been cut, making a cavity in which unquestionably
had been concealed several pounds of opium. This
having successfully passed the vigilance Of the San
Francisco custom officials, the paper was sent here
for sale, 81 as is." The joke is now about even.

Virginia Hospitality.

Col l.. 81. Fitzhugh, ex-doorkeeper of the
House, who went with the committee de-
tailed to bear the remains of Hon. B. B.
Douglas, late a member from the First Yir>
ginia District, to their FINAL resting place 81
Aylett's, Virginia, reports an incident of the
otherwise gloomy duties which recalls the
days long gone by-an incident which illus
trates the splendid hospitality which has
given that proud old Commonwealth u name
and fame wherever the English tongue is
loken.
John B. Davis, Esq, brother of Senator
Fl. G. Davis, of West Virginia, aud a warm
personal friend of the late Mr.. Beverly Il.
Douglas, Joined the committee at Richmond +,
and went with the escort to Aylett's, taking
his splendid residence. "Lester Manor" in
the way Reaching the "Manor" in the
afternoon. the doors were thrown open with
an old Virginia welcome liquors, cigars
and coffee of tie rarest favor were served,
aud the dinner which was spread before the
guests, Hon Rush Clarke says. was one of
the most sumptuous and elegant of which
he ever paItook. lie says that the Riggs
House has seldom spread q more elegant feast.
Remaining at "Lester Manor" over night, and
having to leave the railroad at this point. and
90 over the country distance of twenty
miles to the late home of Mr.. Douglas, Mr..
Davis had his elegant carriages aud chariots
brought out, in which he aud his guests msde
the Journey. Their sad mission ended, the
gentlemen of the committee (eighteeu in
number( returned the same night to "Lester
Manor" where they wero as handsomely en-
tsrtained as before BY their larVe>h hearted aud
manly host, Mr.. John B Davis.
On leaving for Washington the next morn
ing, Mr.. Davis was asked by the Sergeant
at Arms to make out his bill.
Not a copper. gentlemen, he replied, 81
shouldn't think of such thing"
"But," persisted Mr.. Clarke and others,
"the expenses are ell provided for, and 1t is
not the committee you would charge, bu. the
United States goVeTDment."
"That matters nothing" said Mr.. Dasis.
"Beverly Douglas was friend of mine, and
beg permission to contribute this little in
honor Of his memory, and as slight express
sion of my.high regard for his lOftycharacter."
When it is considered that it Mr. Davis
had made charge at all for the entertainment
of his guests two or threo days. the furnish
ing of transportation, &c., the sum would
have amounted to about two huGdred dollars,
we can appreciate the generosity OF Mr.. John
b. Davis Tho committee gay it is the tirst
time they have ever known gentleman TO
refuse pay. when the government had to foot
tho bill, and that they will long entertain n
most pleasant aud grateful memory of"Lester
Manor +" aud its accomplished owner. 1t IS
the first experience that several of the COM
uhittee Chose from tho North) have ever had
of old fasiOued SoutherB.hOspisslity, aud tho
reality surpasses all they had ever heard of
it, We sincerely wish that social intercourse
between the sections could be of more ire-
quent occurrence.
