THE GIFTS TO UNCLE SAM
Were sent to President a Beuren
and aused No End Of Trouble.

On the seventh day of the month Of
Schawwal, in the year 1854 of the Hegira-
which is the Arabian way Of writing
December %, 1S39-the Sultan of Oman,
whose name was Seyyid Saood. Bin Sui
tan Bin Ahmed. addressed a gracious let
ter to ~Hfs Excellency, Martin Van Blu
rem, President of the United States of
North America" in which he informed
the President that he had sent him by
the Royal ship "Sultanee' a few trihes
as a token Of friendship and good feel
ing. These trifies consisted of two Ara
bian horses and their groom. one bottle
of altar OF roses, two pieces of gold, five
demijohns of rose-water, one Persian car
pet, one gold ornament with a silk tas-
sci, four camePs hair shawls, one gold
mounted sword, two large pearls, a string
of one hundred and fifty pearls. n gold
plate, one bottle of diamonds, one gold
snuff-box studded with precious stones,
and one box OF mixed pearls and dia-
monds. Under the constitution. the Presi-
dent is prohibited from accepting a per-
sonal gift from any foreign State or
Power, and as the Sultan's gifts had the
"Suitanee' would not leave the country
without presenting his masters offerings,
an embarrassing complication was the
outcome. The matter was finally referred
to Congress. and after three months of
correspondence, red tape, diplomacy and
legislation the Sultan's Christmas pres
ents were finally accepted; and then the
President was put to the trouble of SELL
ing the horses, the shawls and the rose
water. while Uncle Sam was given the
further trouble of finding a suitable place
to store the remaining gifts, and was
afterward put to great expense in cap-
tire Collection in a bag and was only
caught after a long chase.-July Ladies
