A RECEPTION AND A LUNCH PARTY.


WASHINGTON, March 17.--Thcrc was large re-
ception Mt the White House tonight, given by the
President to the two houses Of Congress and their
officers and to members of tho Supreme
Court The Administration has made new
departure with regard to these social entertain
meuts, and is inviting what constitutes the differ
ent classes of the political and social world in turn
The great American people represented by the
Office seeker has its turn in the morning hours the
Army and Navy have had one evening, and tonight
the two houses of Congress were invited.
A curious incident occurred in connection with
extending the invitation to the Senate. Word camo
from tho State Department to tho NlcePrcsident,
requesting him to invite the Senate to tho White
House. Vice. President Arthurs first impulse was 10
announce the invitation from the chair; but this
seemed too much like an announcement of deaths and
marriages in country churches, and ho ilnaly de-
cided to send engraved invitations to the members
of the Senate and the officers. This accounts Tor
the peculiar language of the invitations received by
the Senators. as the invitation Issued by the VICE
President states that he lis requested TO invite tho
Senate This il quito n novel social custom IN
Washington and has attracted q little attention
in social circles disposed on all occasions to be
critical.
Ex-Postmaster- er-Gcncral Horatio King gave q com
plimentlry lunch at his residence III this city 10
Postmaster General James. All the members of the
Cabinet were invited and. with the exception of
Secretary Blaine, were present were also Justice

A BOX OF GUNPowDER WITH BURNING PAPER FOUND
NEAR The MANSION HOUSE. LoNDoN-THE Po-
LICEMAN's STORY.
LONDON, Thursday, March IL, 1881
An official police report says at midnight apo
liceman on duty at the Mansion House found box
in the recess of window facing the end OF George
ST., under the Lord Mayors private apartments.
The brown paper in which the box was wrapped
was smouldering. The box contained fifteen pounds
of coarse gunpowdcr with fuse through hole IN
the box and the end of the fuse close to the smould
ering paper. An explosion would have occurred
very soon bat for the discovery. At meeting OF
the Common Council to-day. the Lord Mayor con-
frmed the above report and said the explosion
would probably not have injured the Mansion
House, but would have damaged Egyptian Hall
and adjacent private houses and cntalled serious
loss of life. lie bimself, he said, was not at nome aI
the time.
One account says that an Irish newspaper was
found among the packlngs OF the powder NO ar-
rests have been made nor has any clew to the pcrDc
traitors been thus far discovered
