There are two large sofas and about q
dozen chairs, all OF mahogony and
brown Turkey morocco. A handsome
marble clock on the mantel keeps the
Secsetary informed as to the time and IN
one corner OF the room stands silver
pitcher filled with ice water.
ThsCsilings are Richly Erescosd.
and on the walls are hung several pic
lures and portraits. 90 the left oil the
Secretary's desk, in a large frame. is
finely engrossed copy ofthe resolutions
passed in January, 1879, by the New

ia fine bath room, where
the minister of finance is wont
to bathe his weary limbs when ex-
hausted with the arduous labors OF his
responsible position. This bath room
is something which every one does not

unaware OF its existence.

il very similar to that of Mr.. Sherman
the main point OF difference being that
il contains the collection-so far as it is
complete OF handsome oil paintings OF
former Secretaries OF the Treasury.
The Government is obtaining, as fast
as possible, a portrait in oil OF all the
former Secretaries so far as they can be
secured, and those already finished are
placed for the present in Mr.. Hawley's
room, but will be divided between the
two offices when the collection is COM
plete.
The paintings now finished are those
OF Albert Gallatin, Thomas Ewing, Sr,
Walker and Crawford. They were exc
cuted by Washington artists, and when
all are done they will form handsome
group OF the Secretaries OF the Treasury
of this country. J. F. B.

THE ELECTRIC LJaHT.
A Statement from Edison.

NIw YORK, December l3.-The elec-
tric light is again taking possession oil
the public mind. Thomas A. Edison,
the we'll known inventor, says: 81 am
preparing a test OF subdivision OF elec.
trio light and will soon have it all ready
I am already satisfied, but 7 wish to
show the gentlemen who are TO put
their money in this thing its practical
working before they take the step.
There is to be
No Guess Work About 1t.
We will know exactly the cost OF every.
thing before We 50 ahead. Because
have been few months perfecting this
thing, the public said l had failed.
They forgot that there are millions OF
dollars invested in gas, and they must
not expect one little Jerseyman to
Revolutionise the Light Of the World
and render oil this capital useless. The
light produce is better and cheaper,
and those are the two qualities that will
kill gas. Besides there is no dirt from
my light, no danger from escaped
gas or combustion. The light
is a simple light produced
by the effect Of electric particles upon
carbon. 1t is a clear, steady, unficker-
ing blaze, and possesses none OF those
disagreeable pecuharities which the pub
lie have come to associate with the idea
OF electric light, gained from those dis
tressingly glaring balls which you see
suspended in front OF theatres and other
buildings. The difficulty hitherto has
lain in the subdivision OF the light, 10
as TO bring its application within
the reach of money. A great
many writers upon the subject have de-
clared this to be impossible, but it is not,
and
Have Proved It.
The electric light may be furnished at a
cost OF something like $500, 10000 less
than 1t would have cost by the original
method. | calculate that the city Of
New York can he lighted by my method
at cost OF something like S2,0O0,O 900,
which is a very reasonable amount.
Ny light will be perfected before great
while. am working very hard now.

Some Interesting Gossip About

Personal Points.
A PEN PICTURE OF THE TREASURY.

The reception to General Grant in
Washington was not calculated to in
spire that gentleman with sense OF his
importance. The fact is Grant is be-
coming stale as public curiosity, and
it will require all the strategy he can
command to retire with dignity. There
is danger OF his falling Hat.
Secretary Thompson will vacate his
office on the 10Th instant. The Presi.
dent will not name sGccessor, but Sec
retary Of War Ramsey will perform the
additional duties Of Secretary OF the
Navy until the expiration Of the term.

being himself a membe- thereof, has
gone TO Parkersburg to spend week or
ten days.
No business OF great importance was
transacted by this commission last
week, the discussion being general as to
how best to make the celebration sue
cess. The necessity Of additional assist
snce from the Government, and acu0n
by the individual States was warmly
urged. Mr.. Dougherty, OF Ohio, urged
that instead OF the annual encampmeht
of the militia, as is the practice in many
of the States. it be deferred until Octo-
Der and held at Yorktown by as many
OF the States as can do 80. A resolution
was adopted that the commissioners
respectfully ask the Governors OF their
respective States to take such measures
as will secure sufficient appropriation
from their Legislatures to enable the
States to take suitable part in the cele-
bration. The commissioners then ad-
journed TO meet at Yorktown in Octo'
Der next, unless sooner called together
by the chairman.

LIGHT OF THE WORLD.
EDISON BREAKS HIS PR0TRAcTED
SILENCE.
The Electric Light Not Failure, but Being
Perfected by the Inventor, and
Soon 10 be Ready fer
the Public.
WILL Be NO GUESS WORK ABOUT IT.

After long silence, which the public
considered as ominous Of failure, Edison
comes to the front with the statement
that his electric light is not dead,
but sleeping. During the long interval
in which the inventor had almost passed
from public consideration, he has not
been idle, but has been industriously
preparing method for subdivision OF
the light. This, which scientists have
pronounced impossible, the plncky little
Jerseyman claims to have accomplished.
and he promises that his invention will
very soon be perfected and revolutionize
the light OF the world.
