Again the old old story of the Second
Manassas" is to be rehearsed in congress,
the flood. gates of debate having been open.
ed in the house this week on the Fit John
Porter case. The case, except in the view
of the bucolic republican editor and moss
back politician who never heard the zip Of
a mimic ball, has about passed out of the
region Of mere question of politics, and be
come one of justice or injustice. The court
of inquiry, called some years ago to review
the case, declared Porter innocent of the
charge of disloyalty or Of unjustiiiable
disobedience of orders. History has yindi-
Gated Porter's defence, which has never
varied, and even the old commander, Grant,
himself who once refused Porter relief
when it was within his power to have
given it while President, declared after
careful examination of the case, made at
his leisure after released of the cares Of
office, that Porter had been cruelty wrong.
ed, and could he have recalled the past
Porter would not now be seeking the justice
so long denied him. Porter's misfortune
during the war and since was that he was
a democrat, -one of the few like McClel,
Ian. Franklin Hancock, &c, who had the
courage TO continue democrats in spite of
the evidence daily before them that such
political beliefs were sure stumbling blocks
in their way to positions in the army to
which their abilities and services entitled
them. Porter stumbled and fell at ManaS.
sas; the others could not be thrown by
even their enemies, !but as some one
has truly said Porter's fault was that Of a
growler, a serious one truly in those days,
but his punishment has been out of all
proportion to his fault, and there now re-
mains no good reason why it should con
tinue to gall the soul Of an old man already
madened with its sting. Democrats, as
democrats, have no special interest in Por
ter, but all men like to see fair play-ius
iice-and, but for the wrangling of politi
clans of the other sort, the matter would
long since have been disposed OF ard Por
ter would have been at rest.

HOME MATTERS.
THE RACHELORs' BALL

\ Scene Brilliant and Beautiful
The long-talked OF event, the Bachelors
ball and reception, has come and gone and in
its train has lief. memories Of a brilliant and
pleasant time. Ottawa, this winter has
been unusually gay, parties, balls and recep.
tons following each other with a frequency
quite unknown in this city for the past four
or five years; but the party given by the
Bachelors at the Clifton hotel Thursday
night far eclipsed any of the society events
Of years past in Ottawa.
The hosts on that notable occasion were
Thomas c. Fullerton, Duncan McDougall,
Willard Gentleman, John S. Ryburn, Viii
liam j. Graham, Sidney r. Blanchard and
Edmund W. Weis. Some 200 invitations had
been issued, many Of them being sent to
friends outside of the city, The regrets of
residents were few in number, and in all
there were nearly 200 guests present. The
reception was announced to take place at s
o clock sharp, but it was nearly an hour after
when this ceremony began. The night set
in gloomy with Slight drizzling rain. ms if
to make decided contrast between within
and without on that festive occasion In re-
ceiying the guests Mr.. Fullerton was as
sisted by Mrs Jordan and Mrs. DR.. Dyer
Mr.. Graham by Mrs. liapeman and Miss
Eliza Porter; Mr.. Gentleman by Mrs Towne
Mrs. Sherwood, Mrs. Bascom and Miss Gen
tleman; Mr.. Crane by Miss Lane, of Pitts
burg Mr., McDougali by Miss Hegeler and
Miss McDougall; Mr., Weis by Miss Chapel
of Marseilles, and Miss Alice McArthur Mr.
Blanchard by Mrs Cornell and Miss Blan-
chard, and Mr.. Ry burn by Miss Sarah fiske
and Miss Ryburn. Shortly after the recep-
ton took place the guests filed into the bril-
liantly lighted dining room, used as ball
room, ana after the promenade to the music
of Willis orchestra, dancing began, which
lasted until far into the "wee sma' hours Of
the morning, the following being the dane

A brisk anti Chinese war broke out In
Seattle, W. Ter, on Monday, instigated 1t
is said, by the United Workmen Under
pretense of visiting the Chinese quarters Of
the town 20 see whether the sanitary regu-
lations were complied with, a mob, headed
by the chief of police, would enter house
after house, order the Chinese out and
loading them and their effects on wagon,
conveyed them 70 the steamboat landing,
where steamer was ready TO convey them
10 San Francisco. About 300 were thus
conveyed to the boat, but as $40 fare were
demanded for each, and but 30 had paid
the departure of the steamer was delayed
until the local militia was called out and
the mob rule arrested. The Chinese were
then taken before L. S. Judge on habias
corpus and told they could go or stay as
they pleased and would be protected.
Most of them were anxious 10 go, and next
day the steamer sailed with about 100, all
that could pay their fare, The rest re
turned to their huts During the proceed
ings the mob made an attack on the home
guards, who finally opened fire and killed
two or three of the mob.
