It 1s said by those who have been presented at the Spanish court that in his mode of receiving the diplomatic corps at his residence on the 13th, and the French and German visitors in the rotunda the following day, President Arthur adopted the plan observed at that court. On both the occasions noted, instead of the President standing, as has been fhe case heretofore, in the appolnted place, and awaiting the arrival of visitors who would ass him in turn, pausing as they did so to ex- ange greetings, the visitors awaited his arrival, and ‘were stationary while the President ap- proached, and greeted each in turn. Another feature of the reception which was no- ticed was that President Arthur and Secretary Blaine both wore frock coats, while all the gentle- men of the diplomatic corps hot entitled to wear court uniforms wore dress suits. It, will be re- membered that during President Hayes’ adminis- tration, it was long a mooted point a8 to whether dress of frock coats should be worn by gentlemen without uniform at the official New Year recep- tion of the diplomatic corps at the White House, as It occurs always before noon. President Hayes always wore adress suit, but Sec Evarts, until last New Year, invariably wore a frock coat. Last New Year day he followed the President's ex- ample. The diplomats without uniforms used to be puzzled to know whether in this to fol- eed ore example of the President or the Secretary Of State. A gentleman not entitled to wear a uniform, but who occupies an important place in one of the foreign legations here, speaks of having been puzzled as to what would be the most suitable dress to wear when President Garfleld’s funeral services occurred at the Capitol. He came to the conclusion that as those members of the diplo- matic corps who wear uniformsat courts Would wear them on that occasion a dress sult would be the proper one for him, and so he wore if Some question the propriety of ap pearing in full dress at a funeral, while others ‘think it proper to show to the majesty of death the same deference in this respect that they would pay to an earthly sovereign. This 13 the custom at funerals of rulers in At two funerals in two private families in Washing- ton within a few years, one of the chief mourners took this view of the case. One was that of the child of @ noted Washington correspondent. Here the father appeared at the funeral in full evening dress. ‘The other occasion was the funeral of the wife of an army officer, when the husband wore his full dress uniform in which to escort her to the grave.

PAST AND PRESENT PHASE OF THE CASE. ‘The correspondence between Gen. Early = Gen. Mahone in 1871, which was of a savagely per- sonal nature on the part of the former, has #<n made publie. A New York magazine published a military sketch of Mahone which was very flatter- ing and laudatory. of the * latter's ability, genlus and courage, but contained tions upon other confederate kenerals. Among those most severely dealt with Was Gen. Early. ‘The publisher of the magazine and author of the sketch attached a fout-note to the effect that the article had been submitted to Mahone before publication, and ap- Gen. Early, a8 soon as he saw the cation, addressed a letier to Gen. Mahone,de- siring to know if he was responsible for the objec- Uonable paragraphs. Mahone’s reply was not sat- wrote another letter, savagely language. Finally ‘a_sort of effected by Mahone’s procuring tion of the-articie with all allusions For this second insertion, it ap- pears Mahone had to pay regular advertising Fates. Now, ten years after the controversy, the corre- spondence is brought out bya heated political can- vass, in which Mahone 1s prominent on one side and Early on the other. What infinence the letters can possitdy have on the canvass or the voting does not appear even at this short distance from Virginia. It having been charged that. Early’s re- cent denunciation of Malone was part ot a con- spiracy to force the latter into a ducland kill him, Gen. Early 1s quoted as having said, on this point, yesterday, that he had no {dea of forcing Mahone into a duel. “I knew there was no danger of that,” he remarked; and he might have added that there would have been no danger in the duel either, if fought after the modern Virginia plan. ————— aE isfactory and Ear! ‘austic In tone s Amusements, &c.

In the Century Magazine ex-Marshal Douglass, of this city, gives an account of his escape from slavery. In those days colored passengers leaving Baltimore by rail were obliged to exhibit papers showing that they were free persons. Douglass had no freedom papers, but had a friend, a sailor, who was supplied with certain n government papers that had at least an official 1 Baltimore was his -point. He arranged with a frien hackman to bring his luggage to the station ani arrived there himself just in time to jump aboard the train, hoping in the confusion attending its de- aruure to avold exciting suspicion. He says: “In my clothing I was out in sailor style. Ihad ona red shirt a ulin hat, and a black cravat, ted in sallor fashion, care- lessly and loosely about my neck. My knowledge of ships and gallors’ talk came much to my assist- ance, for I knew a ship from stem to stern and from’ keelson to cross-t and could talk sailor like an ‘old salt,’ _I was well on the way to Havre de Grace before the conductor came into the car to collect tickets and examine the papers of his black passen; ‘This was a critical moment in the drama. My whole future depended upon the decision of this conductor. Agitated though I was while this ceremony was proceeding, still, exter- nally at least, I was apparently calm’ and self-pos- sessed. He went on with his duty, examining sev- eral colored passengers before reaching me. He was somewhat harsh in tone and peremptory in manner until he reached me, when, strange enough and to my surprise and rellef, his whole manner changed. Seeing that I did not readily produce my free papers, as the other colored persons in the car had done, He said to. me, in a friendly contrast with his bearing toward the others: T su you have your free pa) To whlen T answered eee “No, sir; I never carry my free papers to sea with me.” “But you have something to show that you are a freeman, haven’t you?” ‘Yes, sir,” I answered; “Ihave a paper with the American ‘eagle on it, ‘and that will carry me around the world.” At Havre de Grace he met a young colored man Whom he knew and who seemed curious to find out his business go far from home. He got rid of this difficulty only to encounter another. At the win- dow of a train, standing on a side track directly opposite the one he was In, sat a man for whom he had just been working at Baltimore. By good luck the man did not turn around, so he was undiscoy- ered. On reaching Philadelphia he inquired his ‘way to the New York trains, and arrived in that city on the 4th of September, 1838, a free man, Five Days in a Cranberry Bog. ROUGH EXPERIENCE OF BALLOONISTS. The balloonist, Prof. King, and Signal Officer Hashagan, who left Chicago on their aerial voyage last Thursday week, give the following account of fheir pertious trip: “Before five mninutes after leaving terra flrma we Teached an altitude of 4,300 fect, moving southw minutes later we reached an uppercurrent moving slowly westward, and we were carried away to the west and northwest. At 5:15 on Friday passed over Spring Valley, Wis, and afterward over the Platte Mounds. At8 a.m. we passed over ‘Putton,’ or some similarly named place. At 9:50 e arose among the clouds. The wind increasing, rried us at a rapid rate, probably forty or fitty miles per hour, and not’ being able to discern stationary objects, we could not tell where we were or What course We were pursuing. in pass- ing Little Falls, Monroe county, Wis., We came So near the ground that we came in'contact with trees. Then again our balloon took an upward turn, “carrying us 4,000 feet above the strata of clouds. Meanwhile the rain poured down ‘in ___torrents, collecting on the outside of the balloon, It poured down the mouth of the bag into the basket in a steady stream. At 12:45 the highest known eleva- tion Was reached, being 9,600 feet. From the last erson spoken, We found we were forty miles froma St. Paul, and when we descended at 2:30 p.m., on the west bank of ariver, halt a mile inland, we concluded that we were in the state of Minnesota, probably forty miles north of St. Paul, on the Mis~ sissippi Tiver.

I’had suffered many years with ca- tarrh and deaf especially from catarrh—first one and then the other nostril closed up, so that I could not breathe; often I had to sit up in bed at night to obtain rellet. My suffering was often in- cl by severe pains inthe head. About two years I placed myself under Dr. Hartley, and for the few days my catarrh appeared much Worse than ever. I determined to stop in disgust, but the Doctor urged me to continue, as he said that he desired to increase the discharge at first. I continued, and the result proved most satisfac- tory, my hearing was soon entirely restored, my catarrh cured, and during the last two years I have had no catarrh, no deafness, and am as well to-day as any one, and all who know me can testify to the truth of this statement.
