The Apollo Hall Restaurant yesterday
bought four dozen turkeys for the grand
Thanksgiving dinner it will set. All the
friends and patrons of Apollo Hall are
cordially invited to be present and partake
of the good cheer. When Lucullus dined
not with friends, he dined with himself
Lucullus will dine with his friends on
Thanksgiving and right royalty, too, at
Apollo Hall. Not only will there be turkey
al libitum, but there will be as prlncely a
menu in all its courses as ever graced any
banquet table or lordly feast. Thanksgv'
ing remember, tomorrow, the feast will be
served. Adjoining the restaurant, but a
screen between them, indeed is the Apollo
Hall bar, where the very finest and pure.t
of liquors of all kinds, whisky that cost
more money, and that surpasses in ex-
cellence any whisky in Texas, brandies,
wines, imported and domestic, always
fresh beer, ales and porter, and cigars as
fine as money will buy, can be found from
early dawn until the small hours of the
morning. And, don't forget. the conct TT
every night. And don't forget that the
most superb cook with able assistants, in
the South, presides over the Apollo Hall
Restaurant kitchen. And don't forget the
four dozen turkeys tomorrow.

within twenty-five years. il would be more
correct to say that he is the second. .unmar-
ried man who has been President since
1850, for President buchanan was bach
elor, not widower; and, as is well known
here, President Johnson, whom the writer
quoted mentions as wldower, mas
his wife with him throughout his
administration, though she was too
much of an invalid to assume the
duties of lady Of the White House,
which her daughters, Mrs, Patterson and
Mrs Slower, gracefully discharged. Mrs.
/ johnson did, however, appear at one OF the
afternoon receptions at the White House,
and the writer hereof talked with her. 1t
was during the last winter OF herhuSband' S
term. She was a swcct-faCed, gentle-look-
ing old lady, tall and quite slender, as the
/ writer remembers her She sat on the di-
van in the blue parlor during the reception
and talked pleasantly with all who APP
& preached her. Her husband and children
reyered her, and always showed her
marked respect MS well as affection. When
in her prime her intelligence was ola high
order.
The Presidents who have been widowers
during their term of service are Thomas
Jefferson, whose wife had been dead about
nineteen years when he was elected An
{ drew Jackson whose wife died the winter
after he was elected, and before he was in
augurated and Martin Van Buren,, whose
wife had been dead seventeen years VIII III
/ he was elected. John TYLER lost his wife
after he became President and married
, another the summer before the expiration
of his term.
General Harrisons wife was unable to
come here when he came to be in

! she received news of his death His
daughtcr.in-law, Mrs. Jane +. Harrison,
and several other ladies of the Presidents
family, were with him during his brief
term of one month. Mrs. James Brooks,
/ of New York, then n widow-Mrs. Ran
dOlph-was there, as she was related to the
President, and she once told the writer that
Mr.. Brooks courted her in the green parlor
of the White House, and their engagement
/ then began.
! President Taylor's wife wasunable to pre-
side during his term, but was living, so says
one Of the citizens, whose good memory is
proverbial, and who knew the family well.
Colonel Bliss wife, General Taylor's daugh-
ter, presided for him.
| President Fillmore's wife died just
after his successor, General Pierce, was in.
augurated. She died at Wizards Hotel
here, as she was too ill to be removed from
Washington. Her health had not per-
mittcd her to go into society, so
her young daughter had olliciated as
lady Of the White House, The latter died,
unmarried, at 80 years of age, Of cholera.
Mr.. Fillmore's widow. who died in August
last, was his second wife, whom he married
some little time after he ceased TO he Prosi-
dent. She was the widow OF Ezekiel Mcln-
Gosh when Mr.. Fillmore married her Her
maiden name was Caroline McMichael.

tion. II l. had spent the money in Wall
street, l would, l think, have had some
sympathy outside; but l was not only a
knave, but fool, and nobody has any re-
spect for q fool. allowed myself to be

l would have taken my life II l only had
had the courage to have committed the
act, and then It would only have added
grief to disgrace. l never prohted at all
by the use of the money of the bank"
Speaking of the manner Of the examination
by the directors ex-Csshier Baldwin said
when asked why the fraud was not discov-
cred: "Oh, you know what those examiners
are. They mean well enough, but they
don't know. II they see roll Of 81 bills
marked $50 they will carefully count the
roll and see that it is all right; or If there
is q box of gold coin they will jingle them
all over and count them with the greatest
accuracy but when they come to balances
in the books they take everything they see
in black and white as Gospel truth. So you
see II you have $50 In cash correctly labell
ed you may have a difference of $4,000, 900
on the books and they will never discover
it."
Before last year, when Mr.. Shelley made
his first examination, the experts sent by
the government were a Mr.. Martin and
Mr. Griffin. The latter did the examining
for number of years. There is no charge
of collusion made with those officers In con-
Dection with Mr.. Baldwin, but when asked
how he had succeeded in hoodwinking them
Mr.. Baldwin merely said: "Oh, that was sim
pie enough, without going into details. The
feeling of indignation which is rising in
Newark against the directors is also
pointed against the government ex-
aminers. "These men," said one
prominent business man of
Newark, "have the whole power OF the gov
ernment behind them. They can call for
papers and books and go to any expense If
the facts or indications warrant it, snd we
look upon them as really experts, while we
know the directors are merely leather men
and brewers, etc, honest enough, but not
able to cope with such an intricate matter
as the books Of financial concern. There
ought to be some way of sueing the govern
ment for allowing incompetent men to ex-
ercise so important post as bank exsmin-
ers, and the government ought in some way

A Game of Bluff.

A2OO1te heQiSter.
The st, Louis Globe Democrat, like most ot
the spread-eagle papers of the country. an
proves of Mr.. Blsine's position on the
Panama canal question, as set forth In his
letter 70 Minisler Lowell. At the same time
the 65O6e-Denaocrat cannot refrain from
making the following remarks, based upon
the possibility of serious disagreement be-
tween the United States and European
countries on this subject: "But the possi-
bilitY OF war involves a prospect which
would not be without It's amusing side If Il
We're not so serious. Mr.. Blaine's letter is
firm and digni6ed. as becomes the
diplomatic utterances of a great nation.
But it lacks one important feature. Il
would be much more weighty and effective
II It had respectable navy behind It. AS
it is, 1t may look to some people as IL our
Secretary were engaged in a bold bat tran
sparent game of bluff"
This is exactly What Mr.. Blaine has been
engaged IN. We have no right to meddle
with the affairs of Colombia. The Suez
canal is very different matter, for Eng
land ana France exercise . species Of pro-
tectorate over Egypt, which amounts vir-
tually to control Of tbe government. We
have no prctecSorate over Colombia. It is
an independent State, and capable of maa-
aging Its own affairs. II our intermeddlin9
should lead us into a war with a foreign
newer, all that we could do would be
to try to guard our extended coast line, and
we would have our hands full doing SO,
There is scarcely a European power but
what could, with one or two powerful iron
clads, blow our whole navy out of the water.
II NJ. de Lesseps then wishes to continue
digging his canal without acknowledging
that the interests Of the United States must
be Of paramount consideration, and IL he is
backed bY one or more Eur0naan nOwers
he can adopt the language of the late Mr..
W. M. Tweed, and ask Mr.. Blaine: "What
are you gong to do about iti'
II we intend to uphold the Monroe doc
trine, and to intermeddle with the affairs
OF our smaller neighbors, We had best re-
place the old tubs, that form the greater
part OF our navy, with vessels that can meet
tue iron clad men-of-war of foreign nations.
Until we DO so. we can only bark, and none
need fear our bite, and Mr.. Blaine's game
Of bluff will be chiefly amusing to foreign
diplomatists. The buncombe of Mr. Blaine's Is
letter will succeed much better at home
than the bluff will abroad.

The Terminus of the Southern Pa
aifl0
Nelu OrEeans Democrat.

Mr.. G. P. Huntington, President Of the
Southern Pacific, has published, in circular
form, letter In which he distinctly enunci-
ates the policy that will be pursued by
his road. This has hitherto been sufi.
ciently vague to allow correspondents
opportunities of inventing very plau-
sible stories concerning the intended ter
minus of the Southern Pacific and the
policy it would pursue. Galveston was
tiAttered at one time into the belief that
it would receive this immense trade that
this road will bring, and there were other
accounts that spoke of new cities being built
up on the Gulf coast. 1t has been under
stood, however, for some time past that New
Orleans was the favored point. The circular
we have just spoken of lays all doubts at
rest on this point, and gives the reasons for
selecting New Orleans. The distance from Ell
Paso to the earest point on the Gulf coast is
$50 miles A survey of the Texas coast, how
ever, showed no good ports. But instead a
long bar of sand and clay, which shut out
the ocean so that no good harbor could be
obtained except at great expense. After a
thorough examination on the Texas coast,
Nr. Huntington became convinced that
New Orleans was the nearest available ter
minus for his road. He found at it every
conceivable advantage for such terminus:
safe and excellent harbor open to the
largest vessels; large population, and rail
and water communication with the interior.
The distance, moreover, from El Paso to
New Orleans was only 1000 miles, $50
miles further than the nearest point on the
Gulf.
Having selected the terminus of his road.
the next point was to decide on the means
OF reaching New Orleans, whether bv the
Texas Pacific, by new line or by San An
tonic.
The Southern route, while 1t was some
what the longer, offered the advantages of
being already nearly built and of running
through thickly settled country, with a
great deal Of local business. For these
reasons 1.-THE Sunset Route" which makes
the distance between New Orleans and ~
Paso l,2OO miles, was finally selected as the
best.
Work has been progressing on this route
both east from El Paso and west from San
Antonio for some time, and with the expe-
rlence that has been gained by the Southern
Pacific in railroad building In Arizona. this
work is being done with startling rapidItv
Mr. Huntington estimates that the two roads
Will meet In the summer of 1882, near the
mouth OF the Pecos river, at which time
New Orleans will be connected with San
Francisco by railroad.
