WASHINGTON NOTES.
THE RECEPTION IN THE RoTUNDA OF THE
CAPITOI-A HRILIIANT EVENT.

THE Et'ErTION IN THE RDTI NDN OF THE
CAPIToI-A BRILLIANT EVENT.
The reception and tea party on Satur-
day evening in the rotunda OF the Capi
tul at Washington given by the Ladies
Aid Society of the GaI field Memorial
Hospital, resolved itself into popular
outpouring of the residents of the District.
The rotunda was an ever shifting scene
OF beauty between the hours of seven
and twelve, and as Il financial effort the
whole affair MAJ he reck0ned a perfect
success. Very little ornamentatiun was
resorted to in decorating those parts of
the Capitol where the large company
were allowed to invade. The Supreme
Court room was used as CLOAK room for
ladies'.
This stately apartment being without
gas. very gayiy decorated oil lamps illu-
mined the surroundings sufficiently for
the moments each guest needed. y large
flag presented by the California ladies
was suspended midway between the dome
and flooring, under which was the floral
bower, rooted in with stripes of the ma
tional colors. Masses of blooming plants
We're banked up at the four corneIS :. and
the corners of the roof We're each sur
mounted by stuffed birds, ali American
eagle being on one side. This bower
WAS the annex OF the New York and
New Jersey table, and presided over by
the following society bellies: Miss Rachel
Sherman, Miss Sheriff.. Miss Beach, Miss
Holt, the Misses Dwight and Miss Eng
liSh. The young ladies all Wore white
dresses and Leghorn hats, with red,
white and blue trimmings in feathers or
flowers.
There were thirteen other tables. every
State and Territory i'll the Union being
represented, presided over by the ladies'
OF the families Of Senators and mcmb berS.
The Maryland and Pennsylvania table
was very beautifully arranged, and mad
a statuette of Gen. Garfield by Lot Elan
merry as q center-piece. The ladies i'll
charge were Mrs. II. A. Preston. Miss
Lucy Lloyd and Miss G. Z. McNabb. of
Maryland, and Mrs. Gen. Emory. Mrs.
Schoiield, Miss Strong. Miss Prentiss,
the Misses Emory and Miss Paulding.

LOST AND FbiND.

Two of our enterpriSing farmers conclud-
ed to splice teams and peddle ont load of
fish. They left home early in the week, eX-
pccting tn return III Il day or two, but did
not reach home till the following Sunday
night, to the great JOY Of their disconsolate
families 1t appears when they reached
Lancaster. and its adjacent burgs and villes,
they found the average fish pcddler selling
at prices too low to pay n profit SO in or
der to make il pay, they found it necessary
to drive beyond the radius of the regular
fish hauler. SO they penetrated far into the
interior of Pennsylvania, where they found
ready market at remuneratlve prices. Hence
their prolonged stay.

One year Of prohibition has passed and
all good people are fully satisfied with the
result vet We imagine few there are thai
would po willing to live the year over again.
Step by step rs it passed, with all its joys
and sorrowS: its hopes and fears: its trials
and disaupointmcutS; lis blessings and cal
amirieS, both individual and national.
While some have ridden III safety and pros
pcrity upon the crest ot its storm tossed
waves, others have sunk hcncath its turhid
waters. While new hope and joy have
sprung up in some hearts and homes, the
dark angel of death, with his icy breath has
visited others and left broken hearts and
desoate homes in its cruel and remorseles>
pathway.
Amidst it all time carries us forward, and
we turn to the future and hopefully trim
cur sail, and with lifrS compass pointingto
the same star of hope that has guided tn"
generations, that have come TO earth and
passed away in the centuries of the past, we
launch upon the great unknown. Since our
last letter, all that was mortal of Rev. Jos.
Miller has been carried To its last resting
place, in the cemetery at Cherry lill, and
by the hands of sympathetic friends, de

many vet in the period of youth and will

Some apprehensons are felt for the safety

that cold late spring rather tavors the fruit
prospects, by retarding the development of

q. S. District Attorney Wise is making
q great show of virtue in summoDing edi-
tors and newspaper reporters to testify as
to election frauds which they have report
cd, while he carefully rsfrains from sum-
moning those who could really throw
some light upon the subject of his investi-
cations. The Norfolk Landmark" calls
Mr.. Wise's attention to Mr.. Dezendorf,
Mr.. Callahan and Dawson, all of whom
had some interesting experiences as to the
methods adopted by the friends of Wise
to carry the election, also to Messrs. Laws
Smallwood, Brady and Judge Booker, who
II put upon the witness stand would be
forced to make some entertaining dis
closures. The Lynchbnrg News" sug-
gests Mr.. Smelling and Auditor Allen as
gentlemen who know something of the tax
receipt business, and adds:
sMr. John D. Alexander, one Of the
Auditors clerks, who bOasted in this city
to Mr.. Charles W. Price, our city assessor,
of the use be made of tax receipts i'll Albe-
marie on election day, should be required
to tell all he knows"
II the District Attorney would be credi-
ted with honest intentions, he should sum-
mon all these gentlemen, and then indeed.

inwardness of this thing.

A handy thing indeed to have in the

interesting study when presented IN shape
for ready comparisons. Of more or less in

the present, the future as calculated from

absorbing occupation to very many people.
In the new Red Book, which will bear
the cleverly adap' ed title of "How Twas
Done" all the figures are from official
sources, being received under the seal OF
the secretaries of the different States, and
therefore correct beyond question. Ehe

be depended upon as accurate. Ihescope

From the present outlook. it would seam
that an extra session of Congress mex.
Spring will be necessary to relieve the
country from possible dilemma. Senator
Davis term expires next March and the
Senate will have no President. There
will be no Speaker of the House after that
date, therefore no one, as provided by the
Constitution, to succeed President Arthur
in tho case of any disqualification from
discharging the functions of his office by
"remoyal'' or otherwise. There seems to
be no certainty that the next U. S. Senate
will be Republican. Should it not be so,
will President Arthur convene Congress
in extra session and give the opposition an
opportunity to elect Democratic Presl-
dent of the Senate who, in the event of a
vacancy, would be President of the Uni
ted States2

There is strong probability that the
next Senate of Virginia will be Demo-
cratic. The body is composed Of forty
members, twenty-one constituting quo
rum. Thirteen of the Senators who hold
eyer are Democrats, and at the election of
the7th ult., the Democrats carried eight
of ten districts which elect next fall, and
several others were SO close, that If the
election could have been held the next day
the moral force of the political revolution
would have carried them. That moral
force will not cease to operate next fall.

"Forty-Two Thousand" in large CAPT.
tai head lines is tho majority the Coali-
ZIONIST papers try to console themselves
with, and the way they put it. The figures
sound formidable, the head lines look well
and some of those people really delude
themselves with the idea that they have
carried the State by $4,000 majority. Re-
ally, when We first read the announcement
we did not know what they were driving
at. We thought the printers had made
some mistake until reading little further
we found it was the vote on the amend
ments, that as last resort had been
knocked up to brag on. There was moth
ing to clap over in Wise's 5000, nothing
in Paul's 200, and less in Mayo's one me-
jority, but AZ, 600, these were big figures
any how, and perhaps no one would stop
to think how they came. Perhaps no one
would remember the Indifference that
thousands of Democrats showed as to
how the question on the amendments went.
an Indifference that prevented the ballot
from even being prepared by the Demo-
Gratis at some voting places and caused
many one to leave it untouched when be
voted the man of his choice, while thou
sands of others openly expressed theb
preference for the measure. as means of
weakening the opposition, who had used
the existing capitation law to strengthen
themselves by their unlimited use of the
funds the Administration methods provi-
ded them.
So it was that 81 900 Democrats did not
vote against the amendments, as will bf
seen when it is remembered that Massey
got 1000 votes, and there were only 67,-
900 against the amendments, a large ma
jority of those, only voting so in listless
sort of way, because the opposition vert
voting on the other side, and even then
some 5000 Democrats voted for the meas
ure by the count, for it was over 1903 900
while Wise's vote was $4,000. And that is
how the amendments got $4,000.
