Another Cremation.

The body of DR.. Hahn, who died on
March Sth in New York, of erysipelas
of the face, aged 40 years, arrived in
Washington at 7 P. NJ. on the 9th, and
was Immediately conveyed to the crena-
tory. 1t was accompanied by A. Kauf
man, father-in-law of the deceased, and
DIR. Happul, a friend. The corpse, in a
plain iron basket, was carried into the
receiving room of the furnace. The
coffin was opened, the body lifted out
and placed in the crib, covered with a
sheet saturated with alum. There were
no services whatever Before placing
it on the furnace, Mr. Harding said:
"Uncover the face of the corpse" 1t
appeared slightly swollen and somewhat
discolored, and was covered with short
black beard. At o'clock the body was
carried into the retort room by four
men, and showed in head foremost. The
door was placed on and secured. A
slight odor as of burning hair pervaded
the vicinity Of the furnace for few
minutes, but nothing was perceptible in
the reception room or outside the build
ing. In twenty minutes the sheet be-
gan to expand, and the bones Of the feet
could be seen, devoid of flesh. A siz-
zing noise was heard for shortAime,
but soon ceased. At the end of an hour
the friends left for the hotel, perfectly
satisfied, and Mr., Kaufman expressed
himself as wishing his body disposed of
in the same way. He related u story
while in the building to the effect that
Dr. Hahn and himself had a converse
ton regarding cremation short time
previous to Hahn's death, and each
bound himself that the other should be
cremated when death occurred

A Queer Temperance Band

An Inter-Ocean New. York special
says The advance guard of the "Salva-
ton Army of temperance workers
from England formally began its work
in New York recently. The proposed
meeting in Union Square had to be
given up, as the necessary permission
could not be obtained from the authori-
tiles. In the morning the Army
made an informal reconnaissance through
the southern part of the city into Green
wich street and other streets near Castle
Garden. The uniforms attracted few
curious followers The "sisters are
apparently English peasant women of
very limited intelligence. Their cos
tune is Of plain dark material, with red
cord running through collar, which
bears golden letter " 5" They wear
brown straw hats with crimson ands
bearing the words Salvation Army"
In their short morning tour they visited
the barber shops and saloons which they
found open, and one of the members ad
dressed the inmates. In most cases at
the close of her address the Army knelt
in prayer and swayed backward and for
ward as petitions were offered. They
were received well everywhere and no
attempt was made to ridicule OF inter
rupt their work. Services we're held in
the evening at Harry Hills theatre on
Houston street The place was crowd

Richelieu's Relaxation.

Cardinal Richelieu, we are told, spent
his hour Of relaxation in leaping over
the furniture, and on one occasion he was
discovered jumping with his servant, to
try which could reach the high side of a
wall. De Grammont, knowing the Car
dinal to be jealous of his powers, offered
to jump MIN for wager, a proposal
which shows the courage as much as the
event showed the diplomacy of the
courtier. The offer was accepted, but
De Grammont took good care that his
leaps should never quite reach those of
his Eminence, and thus he lost few
louis, but gained speedy and high pro
motion by the favor of his triumphant
and gratiGed opponent.

Washington Gossip.

Another New Yorker has caused a
ripple. Mrs. Hicks Lord came to the
city, took rooms at the National Hotel,
paid visit q few days to Justice Waite's
family, and returned quietly to her inn.
No announcement of her presence in the
city has been made, and, attended by a
colored man-servant and raid, she lives
entirely aloof from the crowd that is so
near her. In the privacy of her apart
ments she takes her solitary meals. No
gloved flunkey at the doorway or liver
led carriage at the curb announces her
presence, and few people in the house
know that the large, dne-lookins woman
in the deepest mourning, who passes oc
casionally through the halls, is the cele-
brated widow of Mr.. Lord. Her mystic
rious honeymoon is but little beyond
her visit to this city. Her presence is
striking and commands attention any
where. Even Alexander Stephens, poor,
little, shriveled, suffering man, looked
with interest at the superb figure and
proud face of the lady who swept aside
her Grape draperies and waited for him
to pass, AS he came slowly down the
steps on the arm of his colored valet
Chief Justice Waite in his Toledo days
was the confidential adviser of Mr.
Thomas Hicks, and had the management
of his property there, so that his &C.
quaintance with Mrs. Lord is one of
some standing: Her visit here is pre-
paratory to her departure for Eu-
rope, where she goes to pay a
round of visits at English coun-
try houses, and it will be some
time before her return to America.
Rumor has had it that she was soon to
marry Charles O'Connor, but that was
denied, and the great jurist seems to
have been snatched from death for some
other end. 1t was confidently said be-
fore ner last match, that an English
nobleman was the elected, but at any
rate the lady is ambitious, and under
the potent spells Of her double weeds
something may yet confirm that old re-
port.
Bright Eyes, daughter of Standing
Bear, the Ponca chief who won the sig
nal victory in the Nebraska law courts,
is in the city, quite lionized in her way.
Her testimony and bearing before the
Indian Committee Of the Senate was
most attentivcly listened to and the
brave little Indian seems destined to
accomplish something for her race.
Bright Eyes has tawny, yellow skin,
aquiine nose and piercing black
eyes. Her blue black hair is brushed
and braided something after the manner
of our bellies, and in Derby hat and
a walking jacket she takes her morn
ing airing on the avenue, and
people turn to look at her
quite as they should to a native princess.
With education, youth and aborigine
beauty on her side, Bright Eyes stands IA
better chance for gaining her peoples
cause than any envoy that ever came to
the Great Father. Bright Eyes has
has had cordial reception at the White
House, and Aattering attentions have
been paid her by those in power Globe

MICROSCOPY.

Lecture by DR.. H. ID. knight.
DR.. Knight, dentist, read to the micro,
scopic society, last night, valuable paper
on the Microscope" especially on that
part of optics relating to it.
He explained the philosophy Of various
lenses clearly, and showed the causes of
and cures for spherical and chromatic
alteration. Sir David Brewster proved
mathematically that a paraboloid lens
would correct both these difficulties. DR..
Knight several years since made a lens of
this shape, which he exhibited to the So
ciety. He does not think it is perfectly
true, and knows of no one else who has
attempted to make them.
No more interesting paper has been pre-
sented to the society as yet, and the black.
board illustrations, enhanced it's value.

held next Tuesday evening, at which Mr.

Results of Seasons Devotion to Art.
Cooking. if not fine art, certainly is q
high art, since nothing more surely brings
to man contentment and Joy than an Gle.
gantly set table, supplied with appetizine
dishes. Such happiness and peace fell last
evening to the Gridiron cooking club OF
fourteen-or hereabout-Lancaster young
ladies and to their gentlemen friends who
were assembled, in the spacious
dining room of Frank SHREDDER, esq.,
Orange and Lime streets, that they might
discuss the fruits of the skill of the mem
bers of the club in the art which they
have made their devotion during
the past winter, throughout which
they have met b-wcekly at each other S
houses, each bearing her own contribution
to the feast, but without the aid of any
male taste to pronounce upon their work.
The high degree of skill to which their
enthusiastic labor in the science Of cooking
has brought their deft hands, cmboldened
them to make display Of their proficiency
to the men of their acquaintance, to whom
in their exultation the Y had often
spoken Of their splendid dinners, but
who were wise enough to withhold any en-
expectation that their gentle friends would
be induced to submit their work to the su-
preme test of their own critical taste {:

desire to aid them in their laudable ambi-
tion to be boss of cook stove.
Whether on account of their strategy,
or because of the amiability of the ladies'
or through the love of praise which SO
steadily sits enthroned in the human
breast, or by a combination of all these
moving impulses, it came to pass that the
Gridiron cooking CLUB did invite number
of gentlemen, equivalent to it's own mem
bership, to dine with them last evening at
seven o'clock and there and then
the following bill of fare elegantly
printed in gold on gilt-edsed card,
three by five inches in size. and
with the clubs monogram in green, red
and gold embossed above the Menu, was
laid before the guests as they took their
seats at the long table, beautiful in its
adornments of china and fruit and flowers.
Tho ladies, being generally students of the
French language, strove to afford an addi-
iional evidence Of their requirements in
the verbal description of their dishes. The
rashly inquisitive gentlemen who sought
translations were promptly provided with
them on demand, and it was with real
sense of satisfaction that the magnanimous
men Echose to give their hostesses an op-
portunity to display their learning though
