Mr.. Eppa Hunton, in behalf OF per-
sons holding SO. 0OO, 900 OF the sl2,96l,-
67s of the .'west Virginia certificates"
Issued to holders Of Virginia bonds
funded under the acts of 1871, 1875 and
1883, petition the General Assembly of
Virginia to take steps to secure from
West Virginia a settlement Of that States
obligations to them as represented by
those certificates. On the theory that
at the ACKNOWLEDGMENT Of State Its debt
should be appOrtioned TO the fragments
according to territory and population,
the act OF 1877 provided for the payment
by West Virginia Of one-third of the
ante-bellum debt Of Virginia by the is
sue Of certificates representing the
third Of the debt which il was hello West
Virginia and not Virginia should pay.
The State OF Virginia undertook to ne
golia,e for the payment by West Virgin
la of the certificates, and "a see that the
proceeds of any settlement effected with
West Virginia should br divided among
the holders of The certificates. Steps
have already been taken by Virginia 10
secure settlement, but they have failed
because The West Virginia government
estimates is liability for the debt Of tile
Old Dominion in way that brings out
a total considerably less than the one
third assigned to the new State by the
act of 1871. The West Virginians main
tain that their State is chargeable only
with tho expenditures Of the old State
within the new States limits, and the
ordinary expenses Of government up 10
1861 in the counties composing West
Virginia. On the other side, they claim.
should be set the moneys collected in
these counties. The difference between
the two totals thus made up would show
the extent of West Vlrginia's liberality
for Virginia's ante-bellum debt. A
lon 2 search Of old records Is therefore
thought to be first requisite. The pc
titioners, however, without the trouble
Of such search, present Il list of OBJ
legations of the new State to the old ag-
gregating 81 .049,S57. Its items embrace
stock in turnpike companies given TO
West Virginia, 1906, 1856; State roads,
sl,ll5,6l9; bridge companies, s76.Gl2;
navigation companies, $207 ,430; that

asylum, law library, &C., 1854, 900.
There are besides items Of cash in 1851
and 1863 aggregating $3.50, 900. AS the
State of Virginia holds in its sinking,
literary and school funds over $4,000,
600 Of the West Virginia certificates,
is claimed by the petitioners to be great
ly 10 the States interest TO secure an
early settlement. 1t would seem that
between the sum for which West Vir-
yinia would be found liable, according
TO the plan Of settlement proposed by
that State, and the twelve or fifteen
millions for which the State would be
liable uLder the plan OF the act of 1871 ,
there ought to be abundant room for
negotiation, and perhaps compromise.

There was an immense crowd at Pres
ldent Cleveland's first evening reception
last Friday night, as it WAS for the gem
eral public. Every one was anxious TO
see the President and the White House
amid the gaslight, and the crowds in
full evening dress. An old employe Of
the White House said it was one of the
largest ever held by u president, but
owing TO the perfect arrangements there
was no undue crowding or crush. The
immense number OF people were kept
moving, and everything was in perfect
order. The White House looked lovely
in it's adornments OF flowers, plants and
numerous lights. great number came
in full dress, aud both ladies in evening
costume, and gentlemen in spotless linen
and clawhammer coats mingled with
the American citizen in his everyday
working clothes and rubber shoes. One
thing noticeable was large number OF
colored people, who stood in the line
and paid their respects 10 the President
and the receiving party. As usual,
President Cleveland received in the
Blue Parlor. He appeared for the first
time this year in Washington in his
claw hammer coat and " hte tie. He
wore no gloves, but the Cleveland smile
was on his face, and he shook hands
with the thousands as cherily as of old.
Miss Cleveland stood heIt to her BROTH
err, and wore a handsome white silk, EN-
train, with the entire front Of rich white
lace. The bodice, Vshaped, was one
mass of lace, exquisitely fine. She
wore long white gloves, reaching near
" to the shoulders. She carried a white
feather fan aud boquct Of lilies Of the
valley. Mrs. Manning stood next Miss
Cleveland, nud WIS dressed III II rich
pinh >itk, ~ Ith lace an1 ribbon trim
ming. Sh" held Il bOq!et OF Bon Saline
roses. Mrs. Whitney was heXt in liIe,
and looked regal in black. The dress
was uniquely trimmed, with a delicate
bunch of chrysanthemums in front.
The bodice was decollette, and Il bunch
of the same delicate flowers rested on
the left shoulder. She wore her new
necklace of diamonds. Mrs. Villas, who
stood next Mis-. Whitney, wore a pretty
pink silk dress. Colonel Lamont stood
by the side of Mrs. Villas. Colonel Will
son and Lieutant Duval made the i'll
Productions. Among those within the
charmed circle were the Cabinet
officers except Villas aud Bayard, Mrs.
Endicott, Mrs. Lamont, Mrs. Cassidy,
of Albany, and number Of senator's
and representatives. wives. One of the
hantlsomest ladies at the reception was
Miss Rogers. OF Maryland, who came
with Representative Gibson. She was
greatly admired. At eleven o'clock the
doors were closed. and great number
were disappointed in not getting In the
house. At one time the line reached
from the White House down the avenue
to Pennsylvania avenue and to the State
Department.
