QUO CUSTOMS AI rHe CAPITAL.
Hospitality Was 0yae OF tho CHIEF Charao-
teris,ics 81 tho Residents.


Said q gentleman who has been q fro
quent sojourner at Washington during the
last 40 years: People nowadays have h
distorted idea of the hospitality of ante
bellum times. The truth Is that tho Gus
tomary hospitality of the national capital
was southern hospitality, and it was vastly
different from the society and social Gus
toms of tho present day. At that timo if
any man had expended $500 or $1,000 or
$4,000 upon an entertainment of ono oven
ing he would have been regarded as unfit
for association with leading men and
women OF that day. The mere expenditure
of largo sums of money would have savored
too much of the shop and of the salesman.
Senator Douglas was ono Of tho most
charming entertainers have ever known.
In common with other prominent men of
the day he had his regular servants, and
they served Refreshments such ms werc in
those days to be found in the homes of the
plain people and of the leading people OF
the country. No ono ever heard of set din
ners with regular decorations in n stilted
manner such rs prevail at the present
time. The entertainments wero of prim-
1.-two nature-that IS to say, they were OK
bomelike nature.
Another thing that appears to mo "a
remarkable is the change which has oc-
III lllc III rllS udtlOnul CAIl-
tai. In the days before tho war it was
customary for gentlemen from tho south
who came to Washington as mombers OF
the house of representatives or as senators
each to bring with him ayoung man, who
was TO act as private secretary. for the
purpose of being trained in politics, be-
cause politics was the gcntlemanly profess
sion OF the southern people at that time.
The private secretary of n representative
or of senator WAS regarded as student
of politics, and his standing was such az
student of Yale or Harvard might obtain
in tho cities where those institutions are.
According to his family history and anccs-
try and his own personal merit, tho private
secretary OF II senator or representative was
received in society, ana no was regarded
ms n highly favored gentleman. Nearly
oil of these young men attained or achieved
distinction as officers or soldiers in the
Confederate army during the civil was,
and number of them have become men,
bers of congress since the conflict closot,"

THE SUNDAY NEWSPAPER.

There is no longer any question that
the Sunday newspaper is daily incrcas-
ing In popularity, and that very many
households which formerly excluded IL
now receive II as q most welcome visi-
tor. The great care with which the Sun
day newspaper is made up, the selection
of the high class matter which fifls it's col
given church matters generally, has had
n great deal to do with the change, and
the day is fast approac ching when it Will
be as welcome in every household In the
land on the Sabbath as well as on any
other day in the week. The time has
already come when the ministry is seek
ing the masses of the people through the
Sunday newspaper. ana among this class
are some of the ablest divines in the
country.
In addition. some of the ablcst con
tributors OH general subjects are those
who write for the Sunday newspaper
adding their quota of choice informa
ton to it's columns. There was time
when there were those who found pleas.
ure in dccrying the Sunday newspaper
but. happily, adverse OPINIONS on this
SUBJECT are growing less every day. There
are number of newspapers which make
practice of publishing sermons of emf.
nent members of the ministry, in thei,
Sunday editions, and among them i.
the Firginian. thus enabling tho
preacher of the gospel TO reacl
a much larger constituency thar
IL this was not the case This being
Tact. instead Of the Sunday newspa
per being detriment, 1t is a helper IL
spreading the gospel. Instead OF de.
tracing from the seriousness OF religious
thought on the sacred day of rest, il be
comes dissemination. and. therefore. il
Is that the Sunday newspaper is dali,
growing more popular. and without NOR,
useful.
