crew of seven approached without
discovery, charged and carried the
Confederate camp on shore, and in
ten minutes had possession Of schooner
and all, without having a man
wounded.
The number of Confederates was
about twenty-five, most OF them
being engaged in the manufacture Of
salt. There was an infantry camp
about two miles away, in which were
about $50 soldiers, but none of these
came up to take a hand. The salt
works and wharf were given to the
flames, and as 1t was found impossible
to get the schooner out she was also
fired. The artillery was spiked and
the carriages destroyed, and when it
came to disposing Of the ten prisoners

One night in December, 1858, q
runner was creeping siong down the
harbor in hopes to dodge through the
feet Of eight or ten vessels, when all
at once an alarm was given in the
Federal feet, quickly followed by the
bang! bang! of the great guns. The
excitement continued for full twenty
minutes, drawing some Of the Feder-
ais a mile from their first positions,
and the runner took advantage of the
JuTore to escape to sea. AboaM Of
lher it was believed that some craft,
bound in, had been captured, but
such was not the ease. About II
o'clock strange fogs began to rise
from the water and sail around.

the familiar face of +. j. Curtis, who will
undoubtedly be the next Governor Of Ida
no; also W. y. Petit, of Atlanta, who is

The HALEY Times adds the name of
Joe. Pinkham for U. S. Marshal in
place Of L. S. Chase whose term ex,
pires in June. We presume that when
the Times spoke of Pinkham he had
no knowledge that the renowned Maj
Manning of North Idaho had gone on
a pilgrimage all the way to Washing

to be "cheek by jole" with Blaine.

One of the best means of reform in
the Civil Service, would be law re-
quiring every person seeking an office
from the President and the Depart
ments at Washington, to give public
notice through the press of the locality
where he is resident and where his
character efficiency are well known, for
six weeks before he sends in his appli,
cation. If this law was in force many
who now seek Office would either not
apply, from consciousness of their
unftness, or if they did apply, Others
would have ample opportunity to show
up their true qualifications.

tiles, and surmounting It there is fat
screen or pediment of ieweled glass in mosaic,
upon which the large, gilt-framed mirror
rests. Large brass andirOns are set in the
open fireplace, and the screen presented by
the Austrian exhibitors at the Centennial ex-
position stands beside it. A cabinet of cherry
is to occupy place in this room, and an up
right piano of the same wood will be added
in time. The historic old clock presented by
Napoleon | to Lafayette, and by him to
George Washington, will grace the cabinet
when it arrives.
IN THE STATE DINING ROOM
the walls have been tinted q pale almond,
with frieze of stars in gold and copper
lusters and the ceiling is made n dull prim-
rose with similar decorations. The artist in
this case had to struggle against the over
powering influence of the grass-green lambre-
quins and harlequin carpet that combined
all the crude shades of the dyer's catalogue.
The furniture and appointments of this room
are unchalS.d, and will afford opportunity
for improvements at the next annual house
cleaning and repairing.
IN THE MAIN CORRIDOR
a wonderful change has been effected. The
walls are tinted pale olive, which affords a
fine background for the historic portraits
which hang there. The frieze is outlined by
band of open India brass work, backed with
brilliant colors, above which is line of geo.
metric designs in dull gold and delicate Colors.
The ceiling, divided into five compartments,
contains large eight-pointed stars, in gold and
silver lustres, broken by traceries in pale
colOrs and outlined in metallic tints, the cipher
U. S. A. being woven into each bit of tracery.
ROsettes of the India brass work stud the
designs at the centers of these stars, and the
whole cornice and ceiling glistens with the
lights and lusters of these metallic Or
naments. The inches in the walls are
covered with squares Of gold leaf that
give hammered effect as the light strikes
them, and the fiat frames of the mirrors have
been painted a dull brown. The same Grim
son carpet will cover the floor when the corri-
dor is completed. The stained glass panels
for the long screen that divides the corridor
from the vestibule have arrived and will be
set in the frames this week. This glass screen
will be one of the features of the mansion
when completed and from the pieces shown
yesterday the effect will be rich and striking
Soft gray and green glass-likc sheets of tour
maline are set in leaden frames and dotted
with jjewel-like pieces of opalescent glass, the
center panels containing shields and eagles in
most brilliant colors
ON NEW YEARS DAY.
The public will have an opportunity of
viewing the completed interior and rejoicing
that the white house is at last approaching
to condition beftting its purpose as the
residence of the chief magistrate of o great
nation. All the details will then be supplied,
and the people who enter by the new road
way, pass through the jeweled glass screen,
and finally emerge from the superb suite OF
apartments will have cause to wonder that
something of this kind was not attempted
long before.
