The gentlemen of leisure in Paris
are gaining ground. 1T is said, in their
campaign in favor of color in gar
ments, as opposed to the ebony bla elk
and obstinately persistent swallow
tailed coat. This season, according
to the Paris gossip of the London
World, blue coats with brass buttons,
white vests, light grey trousers and
powdered hair will be in vogue-the
latter detail being considered ertra-
elan This style is to be varied with
the brown coat and brass buttons,
shawl-pattern vest, brown cloth
breeches, carriers fastened with dia-
mond buckle, and square toed high
heeled shoes. The black coat will be
worn by the pachutteuw only at the
theater. and IN places where the un-
called. for remarks of the cads might
mar the serenity of the spectacle of
temporary calves.

UNTIL the time Of Andrew Jackson,
there seems to have been no rule in
the choice of Cabinet Ministers.
Geographical lines were not consider
ed, and it was common for two
Cabinet Ministers to be chosen from
the same state. When Washington
formed his Cabinet it had but four
members, The Interior Department
being unknown, the War and Navy
being ander one head, and the Post
master General being subordinate to
the Treasury. Nevertheless, Of these
four positions he gave two to Virginia
Secretary OF State Jefferson and
Attorney General Randolph. John
Adams opened his term with two
Maryland men in his Cabinet, and he
offered the Navy to Benjamin Stod-
dart of Massachusetts,, while his Sec
rotary of State was chosen from the
same wealth, Thomas JEFF
ferson began his rule with Secretaries
of the Treasury and War Depart
ments from Massachusetts, and gave
the Attorney Generalship to Levi
Lincoln of the same state. His Sec
rotary of State, James Madison, came
from Virginia, and his head of the
Navy, from Maryland. Monroe chose
,wo members Of his Cabinet from
Massachusetts, and John 2 Adams
had two representatives of Virginia
in his first council chamber
