On Friday night two leading Minnesota
Democrats visited the President. He took
them ell over the White House, showed
them the cellars, the kitchen, the conserva-
tory, the east room, red room, blue room,
the executive offices. and finally took
them to his bed room. Drawing out q
box of cigars he passed them, and
then pulled Off his coat and Topped down on
the bed. Now, l suppose We Sre going to
talk politics" said he. The MinnesOtians
admitted that such might be the case. well,

took the conversation into his own con-
troll and wen on: II believe" said be

The situation for Democrats is a choice be-

former course We may be elected out OF power

that determination, 1 want my Democratic
friends to help me by standing between the

assured the President of their most cordial
cooperation, and some time later departed.

Col. MosBY OFFERED A COMMAND, BUT
DECLINEs.-In letter fl ON Col. Mosby, to
friend in this city, dated Hong Kong,
April IS, 1885, he says:
Il was offered by Lii Hung Chang, the
Bismarck of China, the command of the
Chinese army, with liberty of employing as
officers 800 ex.Confederates. | declined,
but have kept it profound secret until
peace was made with China. | could not

soldier of fortune. | could not fight for
money or from any thing less than patriotic
motives II it had been made public dur
iur the contest, that China had made this
offer to me, it would have discredited her
and been regarded as confession OF weak
ness-as they had paid me this hig b com.
pliment, which | could not help, l would
not do any thing to injure them. There was
certainly millions in it, might have
played the part of Tamerlane, OF Genghis
Khan or founded greater empire than that
of the Moguls. reckon the chief and
Roderick Dhu will be sorrow to hear what
a good thing they missed"
1t may be necessary to explain that
Colonel Mosby has nick names for
some of his most intimate friends. He
calls Mr.. Joseph II. Blackwell, at whose
house he had his headquarters during the
war, the chief Roderick Dhu is the nick
name he has for Mr. Thomas Sealock, who
lives at Linden, in the Blue Ridge Noun
