A short time ago Commissioner Black,
of the pension bureau, appointed DR..
Hire, Of Louisiana, to the position of exam
lining surgeon, as he supposed, upon the
recommendation Of Congressman st. Mar
tin. 1t now turns out that DIR. Hire Is
under indictment for frauds upon the gov
ernment, and that his alleged congressional
Endorsement was q downright forgery. We
feel sorry for Gen. Black. 1t would seem
that there is penitentiary yawning some
place for DR.. Hire.

Charming Mrs. Madison.

Jessie Benton fremont, IN Htd5 4 1cdEes
l have heard many things, too long to
tell here, OF Mrs. MadisOn's way of receiv-
ing in the White House. While she was
talking with the more distinguished peO-
pie her quick eye would mark some shy
young man or demonstrating woman,
not yet used to the society in which she
was so naturally at home; after the first
part Of the reception she always moved
about the rooms as a lady would in her
own house, and in her own bright, naJur-
al way, said something 70 any one, es-
pecially to those shy and nervous people,
which made them glow with the pleased
feeling that they were welcome and made
TO he part OF her reception.
Mrs. MadisOn's cOnsiderate happy man.

And in the Washington of my younger
day name and character Outranked APP
pearance. No one questioned her wear
ing these shOrt-walsted, puf-sleevef,
gOred velvet gowns, with a mu slim neck-
chief tucked into the low waist
of the gown, and little Ind a
scarf of lovely faded tones over it. A
wide ana stiff quilting of net rose high
around her throat always-and, fear me,
a little rouge and powder were alsO in use

the day discouraged gray hair, ana Mrs.
Madison's dark row of curls was always
surmOunted by turban. And with all
this she was handsome, majestic and sim
ply dienined, and very agreeable-wIth
a memory and kind words for every one.
she dined out often and was the chief
person always; and on New Years day
her rooms were crowded, for every one
who was any one went there across from
the Presidents.
A great niece Of Mrs. Madison-Adele
C0utts-was fully the equal of her famous
aunt in beauty and sweetness of nature,
while every charm that polished training
and associations car give she FAD gather e 4
Sne would have graced the White House
had her first husband, Senator Douglas
of Illinois, reached the Presidency.
Seeing her again but few years ago,
her FRESHNESS and added charm surprised
me into asking her how she had kept the

BIS Numerous Callers and the Manner
in which he Treats Them.
A reporter sat long enough IN the office
of Gen. Black, Commissioner of Pensions,
yesterday, says the Washington Post, to
convince him that the new Commissioner
Is master of the situation, and will look
cut for the interest of the soldier as
sharply as he will for those of the gov.
eminent. He is quick without being
abrupt IN his disposition or all matters
wnicn come before him, and hears the
complaint OF the humblest pensioneF
quite as respectfully as he does the re-
quests of members of Congress. One of
the latter asked Gen. Black yesterday to
make certain case ''speciaP'-that is,
take it up out of it's order, and dispose OF
Il In advance of thousands of other claims
filed before it. "Please put your rea-
sons in writing" said the Commissioner,
''and we will then tax pleasure in con-
sidering your request"
Next came q HlDernian, who wore the
blue in the war of the rebellion. He was
insbriated, but respectful in his manner.
The Commissioner read attentiVely pa
per which the ex-sOldier handed him.
You saw you have wound on the
knee; is it a bad One?"
"YIs, Gineral; here it Is" and rolling
up his pants he disclosed CHASTITY
scar.
LET me look at your wounded hand"
said the Commissioner; and the veteran
exhibited a crippled hand.
"And you get but Sc a month"; said
the Commissioner.
'sOnly So. Gineral. For Eleven years 1

"Tut, tut; don't swear. I'll have your

ney in thus case, and tell her would like
