allowed he had 'em there. "Well, then, "

House the day after Christmas. She
will be the guest Of the President du-
ring the social season, and will doubt
less perform her duties to society in the
same agreeable manner as on previous
occasions.
The President ate his dinner and
spent a very quiet Christmas at the
White House. He probably received a
goodly number of canes, umbrellas,
cases of wine, and boxes Of cigars, un-
less his friends think less of him now
than they did one year ago. l hardly
believe he would be offended if he
had, upon awakening Christmas morn
ing, found in his stocking the assurance
from a majority of the Republicans in
the New York Legislature that he should
have the Senatorship.
Congress took its holiday recess from
the 22d. The work of the session thus
far is like the weather, pretty near zero.

Bob lngersOll.

While ex-senator Dorsey was in St.
Louis in attendance on the cattle con-
vention, he was asked one day how
much he paid Bob Ingersall for his de.
fense in the star route trials. "Well, "
said he, sit was very curious how that
was done. From the beginning to the
end of the trial Ingersoll never asked
me for a dollar. One day, after | had
been acquitted on the second trial, l
met Bob, and l asked him how much |
owed him. He at first declined to talk
about it, saying he had no charges 10
make, and he didn't care if he never
got a cent. asked him to walk few
squares with me, ard we went to the
safe deposit building. l unlocked my
box and took out four per cent. gov
eminent bond for $Ioo, 600 and gave i
to him. He put it in his vest poke
and we walked away, and have not re
ferred to the subject since. ."-Er.
