THANKSGIVING AT THE WHITE Hose. The President last evening gave a Taan | giving dinrer at the Waite House to the see- | retaries, and clerks on «luty there and their families. RETURNED —Sir Edward Thornton, the British minister, is 80 warily esteemed in Washington that it will bea matter of general satisfaction tc know that he arrived in this city lastnight from England to resume iis official duties here. THE SENATE CoMMITTEE ON Post Or- FICES AND Post RoApDs met to-day and considered the appointments of Reel to the Toledo post office, and Heynard to the Han- nibal (Mo.) post office. No action was taken on either appointment. Gov. KELLOGG, of Louisiana, bas written a letter to Senator Wadleigh, of New Hamp- shire, in which he dentes that he corrupted members Of the returning board to declare members elected to the legislatare who were rot, because this would support him in his Seratorial contest. The Report that Sisux bave b-okea from the body mov. towards the Missouri river and are now on the wag-path, has not yet been officially corroborated. It is likel, T rations have caused : stam the Indians, butitis by ne that they have hostile intent: THE PATTERSON Haveas Corpus CAsE.

THE SURREPTI1I0OUS SLIP FROM THE PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE.—The regular sos- sion of the Cabinet to-day was unusually thort. The publication in the New York Sun purporting to be a portion of the Presi- dents micssage was talked over, but tho Cabinet officers are all reticeat on the snbject, neither denying nor aflirming the truth of it. ‘ne pubilcation 15 generally considered accurate, although some deny its genuineness, claiming lat the President’ message on Monday will prove its falsity. It is reporied that au in- vestigation is already on foot to discover the source of the leak. TH UNDERSTANDING at the Capitol, as our report closed, seemed to be that after Vorhees got through his speech a recess would be taken’ to enable the cornmittes of democrats to confer with a republican com mitiee looking to some agreement on toe pending contests. The belief is tuat an ar- Tangement will be made to vote on Kellogg first, Butler second, and Lustts third, witn the further understanding that in watever manver the contests should be decid-d, none who are voted to be seated shall pactic!pate in voting in any of the contests, but ali be swern in loge ber after all the cases are dis- poscd of. AVERY ENJOYABLE impromptu parlorcore cert was given tn the red room of the Waite House on Wednesday eventng—the music being furnished by the accomplishe | mem- bers of the Thursby troupe. Miss Thursby and Miss Beere saug several solos in inimitable style during the evening. Mr. ‘tt accompanied the ladies, and likewise Frater Davis Co. cabinet et which stands in this beautiful room. In ad- dition to the President and Mrs. Hayes, there were present Vice President Wheeler, Secre- tary Schurz and daughter, Governors Deni- son and Cook, Senator Hill, Mrs. Sherman, Col. and Mrs. Casey, Mr. and Mrs. Rogers and other notable persons. THE SENATE CAUCUSSES.—A caucus of democratic Senators was held last nfght to consider @ proposition made by the repab- lican Senators to consider first the case of Kellogg and then immediately afterward to take . and dispose of Butler's case. Tue republican Senators in their caucus decided to stand by the above proposition made by them,and Senator Conover was delezated éo inform the democrats of their determina- tion. The democratic Senators did not form ally accept the proposition, but a commit 99 consisting of Sepatora Taurman, Eaton and ‘allace, was appointed to manuge the elec- jon cases for the democratic side of the Sen- nd in their jadgment may be for the ConFIRMATIONS.—The Senate inexecutive session yesterday confirmed the following nominations: Jonn L.

They replied to this that they had paid their own expenses here and would pay them at the hotel. The Secretary toquired their business in Wash ington, bur they declined to state it, remark ing that they wished to see the Great F. and would make known their grievan: him. They then retarned to the hotel, notwithstanding their cold reception at the Interior department appeared quite cheerful during the afternoon. WHAT THEY SAY. They stated through Fesson that they sop- arated from the Sacs about 15 years ago, when both tribes were located in Kansas, the Foxes numbering at the time about 49). The Foxes were assigned a reservation of 400 acres in Iows, in Monoma county the Missour! river. Subsequently they en- larged their borders by purchase, and spend their time and eara a support »y farming 2 little, and trapping in the fall and winter. They state that the government built them a School house, but the people did not eucour- age tbeir children to go to it, so the building is idle. They have also a farmer amonz them, but have learnet but little yet, and | often lose what they make by not knowilug | how to take care of what they raise, a3 was | discov the case with their hay during the past sea- | son.
