Sam Houston Of Texas were great cronies
1t was a picture worthy Of Punch. to see
this eccentric pair take their afternoon
promenade along Pennsylvania avenue:
Houston stood six feet four inches and
Booth about five feet five inches. AS 1t was
winter, Houston's ample shoulders were
covered with q large gray blanket that
reached to his heels. his grizzled head was
surmounted by a huge Mexican sombrero.
Booth was fashionably attired in brown.

head held up a high-crowned silk hat; and

pedestrian in the hospitable portals Of a
famous hostelry. l never saw this singular
man and mighty master Of tragic emotion

LAFAYETTE,S VISIT TO AMERICA.
There Was Great Excitement over
His Trip TO the United states.


From the Ladies' Home Journal
1T is difficult to understand. at this late
day, what a furore of excitement passed
over this country when Lafayette arrived
once more in America. The visit is an his
toric event to be remembered while MEM

second administration the United States

mouth was firm. and his lips smiled cour-
teously AT the holiday crowd assembled TO
do him honor. The general was not very
tall but well made. His face was distinct-

mixture of Shrewdness, decision and gay

Feared SO often. that Notwithstanding his
personal popularity, even this, his last en-

sum TO begin his journey east few of his
friends rallied again and asked me to give

morning Of April Il. 1855. when going to

Lincoln. Excited and maddened crowds
surged through the streets. No one would
believe that Booth could be guilty of such
an unspeakabie crime. Remembering tho
