This demand, though wholly illegal, coming from the President’s wite, embarrassed the Secre- tary, who called upon the Secretary of State tor advice, where he learned that Mr. Seward had also dine@ the Prioce, having the same number of guests, and giving them & duplicate of the dinner at the White House. In tact, Mr. Seward ordered both dinners from the fame restaurant, and by bis own bill, knew the cost of each. For what Mr. Seward paid #300, Mre. Liucoin demanded $90). Bat whether ihree or nine hundred, the claim was alike illegal, and could not be paid. For tals, bowever, Mrs. Lincoln quarreied with Secre- taries Smith and Seward. This amount, how- ever, was eubeequently covered up in a gar- dener't count, but occasioned scandal, which respect for Mr. Lincoln measurably suppresred, ‘Thongh Mr. Lincoln left an estate which en- abled his family to live quite as comtortably as they bad ever lived, Congress and the peo- ple would bave promptly and cheerfully pro- vided muntficentty for them if Mrs. Lincoln herself, with every advantage that high po- sition gaye ber, had made frienda or inspired respect.

But it is not known that the wife of any otber President, however estimable, was so Joaded with shawle, laces, furs, diamonds, Tings, &c. Mrs. Lincoln’s propensity to sell things was manitested early, and before any necessity was foreseen. 1f our mtormation is reltable, eleven of Mr. Lincoin’s new linen shirts were sold almost befere the remaing, which were shroud- ed in the twelfth, had started for that « bourne trom whence no traveler returns.”” Individual ‘we are obliged to Mrs. Lincoln for an expr: 3ion of her ill-will. 1t is pleas- ant to remember that we are always ont of fa- vor in that quarter. And it is equally pleas- 2 to remember that we possessed the friend- sbip and confidence of Mr. Lincoln to the last hour of his life, without paying court. as others did, to Mrs. Lincoln, and in spite of her con- signt efforts to disturb our relations. This mortifying revelation will go abroad, and as is natural, the press of Europe will make the most of ft. in deprecating the ingratitude of our Government, and the want of Itberalt.y in the Am+rican people.

[From the Philadelpbia Press.] Yesterday morning Mr. L B. Cole, chief of the revenue board in this city, accompanied by Deputy United States Marshals Schuyler, Whippy, and Gordon, and Revenue Inspec. tors Westervelt, Byrne, Ghegan, Einstein, Jonson, Brooks, Donnelly, Keenan and Tre- Bart proceeded to the 251m ward for the pur- poee of seizing illicit distilleries, and arresting all persons found engaged in the unlawfal oc- eupation. ‘he party arrived at the scene of eperations sghortly after 11 o'clock, and at ence proceeded Yo examine into places where distilling wus Supposed to be carried on. At least a half dozen buildings were visited before any signs of distilling were discovered. In the rear of No. 1607 Edgemont street, the party came Across an establishment where the fumes of whiskey were evident. The place ‘was surrounded and an entrance was effected without oppcsition. An Irish woman was found in charge. She was questioned as to the ownership of the concern, and gave the officers to understand that it belonged to her husband, who was out of town. She insisted that the distillery wasa lawtulone,and that yesterday wes the first time that the still had been in op- eration for a week. This she averred she could prove bya receipt from the Custom House. The building in wkich the still and fixtures were located, was rudely constructed of reugh boards, about sixteen or seventeen feet square, one story high, and from its ont- ‘ward appearance resembied very mach a sec- ond-rate country blackemith shop. ‘The fixtures of the establishment were an old and apparently worn out copper still, which was in full blast, eighteen bogshead filled with mazb, consisting chiefly of molasses and yeast, and some omphy, barrets. Two furniture cars ‘were on hand ready to receive and remove whatever property that might be captured The still was atter considerab'e trouble torn down. the boiling liquid emptied ont, and to- gether with the Worm and pipes were taken eut and placed in one of the wagens.
