The rooMeutatloa of Mr. Ilajee. From Our Own Correspondent. MARSHAL nol'GLASS. Washisotox, March 21.

The con firmation of Fred Douglass to be Mar shal of the District is not agreeable to many of the old residents, and certain members of the bar. It was the cus- or duty of the Marshal, during Gen. Grant's administration, to present the guests to the President at recep tions.and in this way he was brought in social contact with high officials. As Marshal Sharpe was the brother-in-law of the President, his presence was not only officially but relatively agreeable. Mr.

Lincoln's master of ceremonies was Mr. French, then Commissioner of Public Grounds. It is no part of the Marshal's duties, and there is no reason why Mr Douglass should perform them except at the request of the President. So few of the old residents have presented themsolves at the White House under Republican regime, there will be no visible falling off of "that element. As for the lawyers, they have no doubt of the man's brains, but they are sure he is not sufficiently practical.

The "eternal fitness of things" was so apparent in some of the Cabinet appoint ments, that we have become careful and solicitous for the public welfare. It is, after all, a question of black or white impracticability, with prejudice against the former. The personal of Douglass would in no way detract from the dignity of the Presidential surroundings at the White House. And contrairi, his would be a central figure. His tall, broad shouldered form, great shock of white hair forming a striking back ground to his strongly marked, rugged features, would give a bold re let of strength and lnis man who was self freed at twentv-one.

and self educated afterward, is as court ly in manner as the polished gentle man whose culture is a part of his in heritance. At the unveiling of the Lincoln Statue on Good Friday of last year, Douglass delivered the address. Men who had heard ebster and Ulay, compared his eloquence to thatof those men. 1 hat day as the fortieth anniversary of one never to be forgotten by Douglass. It was the day of his sale from his Maryland master to a South ern buver.

The party having him in charge were mounted on horseback. Douglass was on loot, and all day long walked or trotted, according to the pace of the horses. Ami now, within a few miles of his old Maryland home, Douglass lives honored and respected. rorty years ago he was valued as a chattel." lo-day he is MarsnaTof the District of Columbia. "The mills of God if rind slowly, but they grind exceeding fine." SECRETARY THOMPSON.

The great "unknown" memlrs of the Cabinet are making favorable im pression here. Mr. Ihompson of the ftavy, is already styled a "nice old duck." When Mrs. Thompson heard of her husband's appointment as Sec retary of the Jsavy, she exclaimcll. "Why did they put him there? He can't swim But he is in fur it, and must either sink or swim, as his prede cessors have done before him.

Secre tary Thompson is a tall, slender gen tleman, with white hair brushed fiercely back, giving a somewhat im portant air t.i his manner. He always wears broadcloth, and his immaculate cutis come to a precise distance below his coat sleeves. They never vary a hair width in length below the allotted boundary. He is very much starched up in the Old time standing collar, and his coat is of the swallow tail cut. He is very methodical, and will soon have the details of the department running as regularly as a century SECRETARY MO'CBARY seems as much at home in the War Department as though he had grown up there.

He is one of the most peace able looking men, and so easy and self possessed, that nothing less than a cannon shot nearby would startle him. Of all men he seems least fitted for warlike business. But it is said that Gen. Sherman will attend to that part, and for this reason, there will be no clashing. It is well proven, and Tecnmseh himself would not deny, that he lias a will of his own, and as the Head of the Army does not wish to share authority.

As the Secretary tloes not know anything or military allairs he will be mor-t likely to defer to Gen teherman, who does, hence there wil be no repetition of the breach, thaf aenurated Secretary Be Ik rum and Gen Sherman, We shall for the present say, uh have peace. Secretary McCrary is very reticent, and the re porters say he does not "interview at all. Mrs. McCrary is a lady who has been too much devoted to her children to be well known in fashionable life, but has many friends in the more solid society of the Capitol. A year ago all the world was startled by the going out of the brightest light on the social horizon when Mrs.

Belknap stepped down from her high position. There is a wide contrast between the wives of the two Set retarics. The one was pretty, ambitious to bring Capitol society to her feet, and with tier bright omiles, pleasant words, and charming entertainments she succeeded. Mrs. McCrary will never live beyond her husband's income, and is not the woman to lead fashion through the gay season.

But she is a woman who will do honor to her position, and dispense the hospitality of her home, in a gracious, sensible style. Alice Belknap is a lovtly child of three years, and the great comfort of her mother's sad hours during the past year, for sad they must have been, though to the world there is no trace of sorrow on Mrs. Belknap's face, and if anything her bearing is more haughty than in her prosperous days. Gen. Belknap is frequently seen.

His face has grown stem, and there is a settled took that adds to his age. JOHN BHKRMAJf. The advent of Mr. Sherman as Secretary of the Treasury hue produced scarcely a ripple in the department, so man, or that any new brooms have been brought in to sweep out the department, but I am sura all that is needful will be done quietly and in order. John Sherman's bonesry and ability are too well known for comment now, and not only the country, but the department is to be congratulated on its Secretary.

lie is a plain man. less impulsive and approachable than his brother the General, but he is sincere in his professions and will be just to his subordinates Theie will be no rules to govern the clerks, who will be the more ready to do their duty from a sense of duty than by any rule not justly enforced. jirs. Bherman is very favorably known, and her receptions have been among the ideasantest on the Senator ial days. Sue will Drove a valuable aid to Mrs.

Hayes, being a lady of culture and resources, quite independent of extravagant surroundings. MRS. HAYfcS. The President's wife will content her self with dressmaking on this side of the water, and the ladies of the present Cabinet will not astound Americans by Parisian toilets. I would rather vouch for the success of Mrs.

Haves' social policy than for the success of in. .1 t. Mr. good begining that Mrs. Haves has worn the same dress at her two recep tions, besides on two or three other occasions.

It is so easy two describe her toilet, tiat Jenkins' occupation is gone. There is nothing beyond the power of ordinary minds in the makeup of this black silk so plainly made. The white lace at the neck close about the throat, is as simple as possible. Her hair would not look as well in any other style, than smooth over the ears, put up low with side combs, instead of be ing twisted up with the large flat coil tribe back of her head. She has heavy, smooth, dark hair, dark eyes.

and a face, not strictly handsome, but which lights up with beauty by its expression and sweet smile. She is al ready perfectly at home in the White tlouse, possessing the happy faulty ot adaptation. Her manner is very cor dial aud winning, without the least pre tention, llie family are established at the Foundry Church, and are as quiet and unassuming as the humblest there Mrs. Hayes desires to pass the Suhaih in a restful way, and prefers to walk to and from church, rather than have the display of a carriage, aud being a mem ber ol the Methodist Church, the foun dry was selected as within walking dis tance. THE CHILDKEX.

The only daughter of the house is a child of nine, little Fanny, who has her lathers blonde complexion, and tier mother's contour and expression of face. She is very preUy, quiet and genuinely childish. There are four sons, three of them crown, aud the other a boy six years. The President has the happiest way of differing with with you. lie never argues, but in the most genial way changes the subject, and you know at once that there is nothing more to be said.

B.ick of his magnetism there is a deal of firmness. SENATOR ANGUS CAMERON. The many friends of Senator Camer on will be glad to know that he is rap idly convalescing, and will probably be out in a few days, if the weather is favorible. Mrs. Cameron has been a deyoted and excellent nurse, as she is a charming and true woman at all times.

Her sympathy and gentleness in tne sick room seem as much a part of herself as her grace of manner in the social circle. She is one of the most admired ladies on the Senatorial lint. Charity Chime. MISCELLANEOUS. Facts WorthKnowing.

The Southern hot-heads are not sat isfied with this decision of the President. They will be satisfied with nothing less than a recognition of Hampton in South Carolina, and of Nicholls in Louisiana. This is what they mean when they talk of a conciliatory policy towards the South. They want a square admission of the right of the bayonet in the hands of the White Leagnes to govern, rather than of a submission to the forms of law. In South Carolina the law and courts will quite probably sustain the claims of Wade Hampton.

In Louisiana the case is different. Packard has all the forms of law on his side, having been canvassed in by the only authority au thorized to canvass the votes of that state. This canvass has not been over thrown by the courts. On the other hand, Nicholls has not been canvassed in at all. The legislature which declared him elected, did not haye a legal quorum, and be sides did not have any returns before them to canvas.

The law is against him. and his claims are based on an assumption that he received a majority of the votes cast regardless of intim idation, and upon the bayonets of the White Leaguers. We do not see how the President can recognize him as the legal governor without assuming as a national Republican principle the theory that might makes right. The facts in the case are just aa well understood now as they possibly can be after the commission shall have reported. Still, the commission may be able to open the way for a peaceful compromise and for a better state of feeling among the southern people; and further, it may tend to satisfy them that the President desires only to do right and not to actwithout a full hearing from both sides.

With this view, let us wait and hope for the best. BOOKS AND MAGAZINES.

PINE LAND STEAL. Prominent Officials of Minnesota Said to bo Implicated. 8t. rxuL, March 22. The In.

The Government can claim over half a million damages from responsible persons. Of course otlicials must be involved this reaching the greater part of the land scrip issues. Gov. Young. Wushliiitton Capital.

Col. Tom Young, now Gov. Young of Ohio, has a keen appreciation of a joke. Driving out Spring Grove avenue one day to his beautiful residence, he saw on a fence "Take Pin kens remedy for niles;" and farther on the sol-etnn expression from some misionary society, "Prepare to meet your God. Tom went to the trouble and expense of employing a sin-painter to goto the place and paint a huce "and' between the two, so that it read: "Use Pinker' remedy for piles and prepare to meet your God." Killing has gone so entirely out of style that it won't pay Edwin Stokes to lecture, and he has accordingly made up his mind to take a junior clerkship in an oil refinery.

Nkvitt, S.JiEFI'. Hyp Dacbej. Ward Com. New York Tribune President Hayes is proving that the Democrats were right during the campaign in calling him a negative man. He say? No" with more frequency and firm-cess than any man in America.

hWaldron, reappointed U. S. Marshal for Western Tennessee, was one of the few whom the Senate neglected to He is a conservative Democrat, and was appointed in pursuance of the President's Southern policy. A writer in the Chicago Tribune at tributes the mortality in that city to a great extent to the entrance of sews er eas inte the houses through the drainage pipes. People in this city along the new first ward sewer, will do well to keep a look out.

THEBaraboo Republic quotes approv ingly from the Germtmia, an article urging Mr. Henry Kleinpell of Suk City, as the Republican candidate for State Treasurer next fall. We also learn that Hon. Joseph Bock, of Grant county, will be urged by his friends for the same place. Both are good men and true Republican reformers.

Gen. M. C. Butler, the hero of the cold blooded murder at Hamburg, South Carolina, gives the President the answer on his honor that "none other than strictly loyal means shall be resorted to to solve the complications in that state." Why should the President hesitate to trust so brave and loyal man, who or.ly murdered colored men after they had surrendered? The new law with relation to the sale of lands under foreclosure of mortgages, provides that, "in sales of mortgaged premises made upon judgments rendered under provisions of this act. the mortgaged premises shall not be sold until one year from- the date of the judgment rendered in such action, unless all the parties in action consent to an earlier sale." Of course, no sale can now take place for more than a year to come.

The sale is final, no re demption being allowed. FOND DU LAC A PEORIA NARROW GUAOE.

He gives good assurances of the ability and disposition of the company to do it.

provided a'reasonable encour agpment is extended to the enterprise by the people of Oshkosh.
