Brewster's Romance.

A Washington correspondent of She St. Louis Republican writes: When Mir. Brewster left the De
 partment of Justice he asked only one favor of his successor, and that was to retain a certain lady clerk. He gave his reasons why, and they contain material for Il romance. When he was a younger man he said he was very much in love with a girl who refused to marry him, presumably because of the disagreement of his face. She gave no reason, but he always supposed that was her objection to him. She married some one else, and he lost si ght of her until after he became Attorney General, when he received letter from his old love congratulating him on his appointment. He answered the letter with an inquiry as to her circumstances and conditiou in life. She replied that she was q widow with small income, but many and pleasant friends. The next letter he wrote rendered her a position iu the Department of Justice, which sh' accepted, and which Attorney- General G lrlani has assurel her she will retain as long as he is in authority.

A Washington correspondent says of the Presidents style of receiving: He does not sit in stately style at the head of the Cabinet table in the Cabinet
 room, as did Rutherford B. Hayes; but, standing in the oval library room, he receives his callers as any gentleman might. He does not stand quite still, as Arthur used to do, at one end of the room, and all the people present passing in procession before him; but the callers having been arranged around the walls to the full capac- ity of the big red leather chairs and sofas, he walks around from right to left, shaking hands with each caller and listening to what he has to say as long as patience is virtue. At II o'clock, Col. Loeflier, the gray haired door keeper, ushers in the first batch of callers, promptly shutting off the stream when the oval of people is complete. The President, who has been at his broad oaken desk there in the big bowwindow ever since 9 o'clock, rises and courte- ously addresses the first caller on his right. So he goes around the room. As fast as it is emptied it Is flied again, until o'clock, when the doors are closed for the day.

MARSHALL.
An Ignorant Blunder for City Coun,
ell TO Make.

SPECIAL.
MARSHALL, TEX, April ll.-Sev.
eral months ago the city council de-
teTmined 70 dispense with number
OF offices. The offices of city marshal
and collector were consolidated, AZ
were those of city treasurer, assessor
and secretary. A motion wus made
and carried TO this effect. At the
proper tine the naYOr ordered an
election in accordance with the new
order OF things, and j. Il. Floyd
was elected marsha and col
lector and Wallace Rudd treas
urer, assessor and secretary
Since the election an examination has
been made inIo the Law provided for
SUCH cases, and the startling fact is de-
veloped That such changes can only be
effected by ordinance sec. .352,
page l6, general laws OF 1851. Now as
this LuslBess was done on simple
motion, and Is 80 recorded In The pro-
c -edings OF the council, IL follows
that the election in this psrtlcul AZ Is
nudity for the reason stated. And
now the wonder il what will the csun-
ell do about II? Tbis is very serious
blunder for which there Is no Teasona-
BILE excuse.
