Couspierous among the attractions offered fo “‘all the world and the rest of mantind” is pnnomneed ‘a chance of seeing the legislative Hodies in eéssion.” The President of the Thited States will also bo visible on the bal- cony of a Pennsylvania avenue hotel, which ‘vas lacky enough to secure bis preference, notwithstanding the Invitations extended to dim to accept a free seat af several rival win- dows, among them the window of a barber's Phop, with a free shave besides, If the mom- bers of the foreign legations turn oat fn (hoir court costumes they will make as brilliant a display of gilt buttons and embroidery as the officers of the army and navy in fall uniform. Neither the Cercle de I'Harmonie nor the Liederkranz, in New York, can surpass the motley show of the three thousand and more costumes hired and manufactured and “sure to be worn” in the masquerade procession and at the masquerade ball in Washington, A main feature of the procession is to be a pro- phetic representation of the inauguration of tho female President in 1878. “There will be,’ says our correspondent, “a guard of honor, consisting of infantry, cavalry and arlilery, all attired in female costume, and the President, supposed, ef course, to be the ambitious Mrs. Woodhull, will be mounted ia a triumphal car, surreunded by any oumber of counterfeit sixteenth amend- ments.” But without borrowing any further details from the programme announced by our Washiaglon correspondent, who waxes elo- gnent over the visioa which it unfolds of the carnival procession, preceded by a battalion of amateur police, composed of a hundred boys from tea to fifteen years ald, of trotting matches and Virginia tournaments, of the coronation of the Queen of Love and Beauty, of foot races and billy goat races and mule races, of two great balls and of a grand mili- tary review, at which all the crack regiments oi the conniry are invited to compete, coming on to Washing‘on at an expense of fifty or sixty thousand dollars for each regi- ment, in order to win a stand of colora estimated at one thousand dollars. Let us shut our ears to the roariag cannon, the in- spiring gong and the rolling drum, and open our eyes to the gorgeous illumination which is to fill Wasuington with a blaze of glory on the nights of the 20th aud 2ist of February.
