SOCIETY NOTES.

Those who have much visiting to do are be-
ginning TO complain more ana more, and with
good reason, about the nonsense Of Official re-
cept1on days. They insist that ladies In certain
nelghbOrhoOds should receive on the same day.
for the convenience OF their visitors. AS the
families OF officials OF the same grade live ia
many different parts or the city, lt is very in
convenient to try TO make calls upon them On
the same day, yet all of them receive the same
day, While some ladies living in the sane row
OF houses have different reception day be
cause their husbands belong to another class of
officials. II a Justice Of the Supreme Court
member OF the Cabinet, and Senator live 10
adjoining houses, as has happened one must
call at the residence OF the first on Mon
the third on Thursday. which OF courac
Is very inconvenient when one has, as ali ladies'
In Washington in winter have. long list OF
calls TO make. The custom OF official reception
days originated when the city was smaller, but
now 1t has outgroWn its former limits, and It's
society has so greatly enlarged, that the GUS
tom ought TO give way to one OF greater con-
yenlence. Complaint is also made, with good
grounds, that some ladies living on the upper
floors in hotels insist on seeing their visitors
In their private parlors when they could as
easily receive In the more accessible public
pa1lorS. Going to remote corners OF hotels, not
only takes up valuable time. but is not always
agreeable.
The Cabinet receptions and that at Speaker
RandallS residence on Capitol hill were all very
agreeable yesterday, and all were largely at
tended: AT Secretary Shermans residence sew
