The President James Monroe) resided
most of the year in IAN elegant house, pro
vided at the expense of the general gov.
eminent, lying nearly equi-distance between
Georgetown and the Capital, where he
receives all Foreign Ministers, holds Cabinet
councils, trsnsscts all public business, and,
during the winter, frequently entertains
members of Congress, strangers and citi-
zens." The volume goes on to describe the
duties Of the Chief Executive, ending with
the statement that ANY person having bust
ness to do with the President, and for that
purpose coming to Washington, generally
waits on him personally, 10 the morning,
after breakfast. A decent, respectable ap-
p~esrance are all the requisites necessary for
an introduction"

Work in the City Limits Progressing
Slowly.
Work on the Baltimore and Ohio extern
SON within the city limits is progressing
slowly, the company awaiting the settlement
of its legal troubles, growing out of the Oh.
tanning of a right of way, ETC., and the
advent of good weather before putting a
heavy force on the line. A heavy cut is
now being made along the base Of the hill
below Manchester, the dirt taken therefrom
being used to ELL the low ground from the
cut to the mouth of Coal run. At the
mouth of the run a bridge of some sort will
have to be erected, and thence to the Mar
ket street bridge the line will run along the
creek bank, over made ground which will
probably require more or less spiling to in
sure q firm road bed.
When the lawyers and courts affect a
settlement of the legal questions the work
will be pushed with vigor, and will probably
be completed and trains running before fall.

Sudden Death.

bass Anderson, infant son Of L. s. and
Ida Patton, nee Miss Ida Pearson died
Thursday evening at 1880, aged 3 months.
This little flower of but a lew months was
always frail, but it was ever hoped by his
kind and loving parents that he would yet
be made strong, and be a pride and Joy to
them in the years to come. But alas! how
vain those hopes? All that human power
could do to alleviate his sufferings proved
of.no avail, and on the above named even
ing its soul was waited away forever. Our
deepest sympathies are with Mr.. and mrs;
Patton in this, their hour of trouble. aud
while their fondest hopes now seem blighted,
little Haas is, at rest. Funeral today at Z
o'clock. ~

they steal on without notice, the result OF

Speaking of Knickerbockers, it suggests
the idea that it would be nice for the boys
to appear at a ball some time attired in
knee breeches and swallow tail coats of our
fore. fathers, and the ladies could attire
themselves accordingly in court dresses,
hair a Ia Pompadour, and patches. Don't
you think it would be quite a novel sight?
