Society Notes.

There is no doubt expressed as to yesterday
beng one OF the most agreeable New Years
known in the annals of Washington. 80. Last
evening dancing was enjoyed at the residences
of General Sherman, Admiral Porter and Mrs.
Ricketts,. -. The daughter of Governor Hoyt, of
pennsylvania, received yesterday with the
daughters of Senator Don Cameron. 80. 1t is
greatly regretted that the Brazilian mni1er
and his wife are not expected to return until
next May. -. Last evening the Portuguese
minister and wife received the diplomatic
evenings.
Sir Edward and Lady Thornton give dinner
party to members OF the diplomatic corps this
evening.
Mrs. Stewart and Miss Page will receive
their friends tomorrow afternoon at Mrs. Hill
yer'S residence, 2121 Massachusetts, avenue,
where they are now staying.
Mrs. Stewart and Miss Page express the most
sincere gratitude for the heroic eXertions of the
fire depal tment on the occasion of the fire at
the Stewart residence Tuesday evening, and say
very little damage would have been done by the
fire had there been sufficient supply of water.
They also express their sense Of the great kind
ness and attention shown, not only by wealthy
neighbOrS, but even those in the humblest po-
J itions. While the loss by the fire. and the
water which drenched the furniture and walls
was very great, Mrs. Stewart does not think
there were any theftS such as are only TOO
common under such circumstances.
Speaker Randall was detained in Philadelphia
yesterday, but large numbers OF callers at his
residence on Capitol Hill were most gracefully
and Hospitality received by Mrs. Randall.
at the residence of Mr.. Wm B. Shaw, on Ver-
mont avenue, which lasted among the late

THEIR WORK UPON REAssEMBINe.

THEIR WORK UPON REASSEMB1NG.
Congress will re-assemble next Tuesday. The
first business which will be taken up will be the
report of the committee on rules, the debate upon
which promises to be quite extended 1t is ex-
peeted that Chairman Springer, of the elections
commit ee, will also have two or three election
cases to report after the holidays The object
of the leading democratic lights will be to pre-
vent the agitation, if possible, of any subject
calculated to bring on sectional division. The
fear is though that the Maine complication will
force political war of words in both branches.
The committee on ways and means Will, I'M
mediately upon re-assemblfng, take up for con-
sderation the letter of Secretary Sherman and
the Garfield bill, providing for the refunding of
the five and six per cent. bonds of 1881. Chair
man Wood is opposed to giving Secretary Sher
man the authority to fund with a bond. bearing
over3L per cent. interest, while the Secretary,
in letter to Mr.. Morrill,, of the Senate finance
committee, lays down some very cogent objec-
tions to Chairman Woods proposition.
The appropriation committee will report the
marshal'S deficiency appropriation bill next
week. It's consideration is likely to provoke a
repetition of the debates of the extra session.
A movement will be made to induce the
foreign affairs committee to formulate bill
very materially abridging the present diploma
tic and consular system.
The banking and currency committee will
probably take vote on the Fort resolution to
let all matters affecting the volume and value
of the currency circulation alone, next Satur-
day, at which meeting Gen. Ewing is expected
to be present.
