Two Charming Afternoon Affairs

Mrs. w. II. Richardso n and Mrs.
Ada Butler entertained com any
of thirty-five ladies Friday after
noon at delightful "Kensington."
The interior of the house was pro-
fusely decorated with asters and
autumn leaves. The diversion during
the Afternoon was a guessing contest
of the books of the Old Testiment
in which Mrs. Edward Bishop won
highest honors. Following the
contest each guest was asked in
her turn to give her first recitation,
song or piano solo she had given
before any audience. The result
was a highly edifying performance,
which caused a great deal of mer-
riment and brought forth many
"reminiscences Of school days.
Late in the afternoon delicious
refreshments were served by the
hostesses,

spaces. Instead of asphalt, the car
riage passed over cobblestones. Nor
did the present stately and beautiful
approach to the capitol exist. The
west front rose abrupt and stiff from
an unkept lawn. The great building
itself was still uncompleted, and high
above his head Mr.. Lincoln could see
the swinging arm of an enormous
crane rising from the unfinished dome

pers, "as to hide it from view" was a
protecting guard. Stationed at inter.
walls along the avenue were platoons
of soldiers. At every corner were
mounted orderlies. On the rooftops
were groups of rihemen. When Lin.
coin reached the north side of the
capitol, where he descended to enter
the building. he found a board tunnel,
strongly guarded at It's mouth,
through which he passed into the
building.
Arm in arm with Mr.. Buchanan,
Mr. Lincoln passed through the long
tunnel erected for his protection, en-.
tered the capitol. and passed into the
senate chamber, filled to overfiowing
with senators, members of the diplo.
matte corps, and visitors. The con.
trast between the two men as they
entered struck every observer. "Mr.
Buchanan was 80 withered and bowed
with age" wrote George w. Julian Of
Indiana, who was among the spec.
tators, that in contrast with the tow.
ering form of Mr. Lincoln he seemed
little more than half man"
A few moments delay and the move

east front began, the justices of the

large company was seated on the plat.
form erected on the east portico of the
capitol, Mr. Lincoln arose and advanc.
ed to the front, where he was intro
duced by his friend, Senator Baker of
Oregon. He carried a cane and a lit
tie roll-the manuscript of his in.
augural address.
There was moments pause after
the Introduction, as he vainly looked
for spot where he might place his
high silk hat. Douglas, who was seat

quickly and took the hat which Mr..
Lincoln held helplessly in his hand.

pered, smilingly to Mrs. Brown, a
cousin of Mrs. Lincoln, "I at least can

HIS HAND
on the HELM

49, AYBREAK of March 4, 1861.
AM says Miss Tarbell, found
the city of Washington
ES&Sl@ astir. The senate, which
EI& had met at 7 o'clock the
night before, was still in
session; scores of persons who had
come to see the Inauguration of the
first Republican president, and who
had been unable to find other bed
than the floor, were walking the
streets; the morning trains were
bringing new crowds. Added to the
stir of those who had not slept
through the night were sounds un-
usual in Washington-the clatter of
cavalry, the tramp of soldiers.
All this morning hustle of the city
must have reached the ears of the
president-elect at his rooms at VIII
lard's hotel. where from an early hour
he had been at work. An amendment
TO the constitution of the United
States had passed the senate in the
all night session, and as 1t concerned
the subject of his inaugural, he must
incorporate a reference to 1t in the ad-
dress. Then he had not replied to the
note he had receivd two days before
from Mr. Seward, asking to be releas-
ed from his promise to accept the
portfolio of state. He could wait no
longer
Il can't Afford" he said to Mr.. Mic
olay. his secretary. "to let Seward
take the first trick"
And he dispatched the following let
ter:
MY Dear Sir-Your note of the End
instant. asking to withdraw your ac-
ceptance of my invitation to take
charge Of the state department, was
duly received. 1t is the subject of
the most painful solicitude to me, and
feel constrained to beg that you will
countermand the withdrawal. The
public interest think, demands that
you should and my personal feelings
