Presidents house. and re-established
the custom of calling. Invitations to
the Presidents entertainments were
engraved on cards five inches by seven
i'm size and sent out with much cere-
mony. At Lady Ousley's ball she was
one of the most beautiful women
present, and all the records OF her
uncle's four-year administration pear
this out.
The first relations between Japan
and America were established IN
1860. and the great pomp and state
Of the reception of the special
emissares was presided over by Miss
Lane. A handsome cabinet, still TO be
found in the White House, stands as
a testimonial of this visit, being de-
livered with d great number of rare
and beautiful gifts.
Remer. bering his former visit 70
this country, the Prince de Joinville
returned and was received by President
Buchanan and Miss Lane as he had
been by President Tyler and his
daughters. In the autumn the mem
orable visit Of the Prince Of Wales
was made, and the night of his ar
rival, October 3, 1860. dinner was
given in his honor by the President,
and. save few drippings from the
candles used for illumination, every
thing was conducive to making pleas
ant history.
Mrs. Patterson, wife of the Senator
from Tennessee, took the place of her
invalid mother. Mrs. Johnson, all
through the administration of "Old
Andy" Her sister. Mrs. Daniel Stover,

her Queen Emma of Hawaii, widow
of King Kamehameha ", paid visit
TO Washington while Mrs. Patterson
reigned, and was just returning from a
trip around the world. Nothing ~
met on that journey could have oeen

the White House. She and her suite

proXy. The mother received guests
and WAS present at all official and prl-
vatc entertainments. She found Mrs.
Madison's precedent of calling lmpOs-
sible to live up to, and John quincy
Adams was called upon to establl sh
some line of precedent by which the
mistress of the White House would not
be expected to go visiting. Mr.. Adams
was bit chcsty in blaming Mrs. hay
with the quite considerable muddIe
into which society was thrown, ana
said she was zone of the principal
causes of raising this scnscless war Of
etiguettc visiting" She truly threw
John Quincy Adams, then Secretary Of
State. into a condition bordering upon
social frenzy when she was asked 70
go to the beautiful ball given at the
French Legation by Mr.. Hyde dc Neu-
vile. the minister. in celebration Of the
evacuation of France by the allied
troops Of Russia. Germany, Great
Britain and Austria. The President
and Mrs. Monroe were invited, but
upon looking up the matter 1t was
found that other Presidents had fol
lowed the precedent Of Washington IN
not visiting the homes Of foreign NM
listers or diplomats.
Mrs. Monroe refused TO so. upon the
ground that her hu band could not,
and then Mrs. Hay was begged to at
tend. 4 little diplomacy IN the matter
might have placed Mrs. Hay on The
side OF the French gentleman, even
though she was At war with the en-
tire diplomatic corps upon the subject
OF visiting. but D. was wanting
The somewhat pecved daughter and
evidently proxy mistress Of the White
House summoned Mr. Adams and IN
formed him that he might tell Mr.. de
Neuvillc that she would attend the bali
at the request Of the President, but
that the concession was to in no wise
alter her (disagreeable) relations with
the wives of ministers. Also. in at
tending. no rank or station was to be
accorded her as the daughter Of the
President, and there was TO be no men
ton of her name in the newspapers as
being present. This icy atmosphere be
tween the ladies of the White House
and the diplomats seems 10 have con-
tinued during both OF the Monroe ad-
ministrations. though somewhat modi-
fed during the last year or two they
were in Washington.
Andrew Jackson was fortunate In
having Mrs. Andrew Jackson, jr., his
adopted daughter-ln-law, as mistress
of the White House, an honor she
shared with Mrs. Donaldson, whose
husband was secretary to the Prcsl-
dent. The latter family were cousins
of the late Nrs. Jackson. whose maiden
name was Donaldson. Truly domestic,

of social life until after the death OF
her mother, and left Mrs. ROBERT
TYLER. a daughter-in-law of the Presl-
dent. to preside as hostess. After the
mothers death Letitia Tyler took the
chief role herself. Mrs. Robert Tyler
had the distinction of receiving the
Prince de Joinville, third son of LOUIS
Philippe, but Letitia opened the brill
liant ball with him, the first ever gwen
in the White House. Charles Dickens
also visited the White House during
this reign. and dgnitaries from all
parts of the world were visitors.
Washington Irving dubbed Mrs.
Robert Tyler (who was Miss Mary
Fairlie Of PHILADELPHIA, the "fascl-
mating Farlie," and perpetuated her IN
Salmagundi as "Sophy Sparkle" Mrs.
TYLER died in 1912, and July :, 1874

paniod her father 60 Washington for
the Inauguration. and presided AS host
css for General Zachary Taylor, during
the sixteen months prior to his death
at the White House. She was bride
of twenty-five. and society folk just
would call her Miss Betty. and make
her queen Of hearts. Mrs. Taylor
came to Washington just before the
death OF her illustrious husband, and
her return to her simple home was III
solemn state and with the much sad
dencd Betty by her side.
The brilliant Republican court held
by President Buchanan with his niece,
Harriet Lane as first lady" in all its
significance, is probably better known
than any other one administration of
the past. The White House itself
underwent many changes, the conser-
vatorics, torn down when the eXecu-
tive Offices were built "A few years
ago, being part Of her planning. Miss
Lane established a new regime IN the
