GEO.. WOOD rAOlCAHO, CHASE O R O A. IN AYashington being a cosmopoli tan city and the citizens being con genial, all newcomers of any noto riety are admitted to the social circle. People in good standing from the "states, are often surprised on arriving in the city to find some folks, from the states r town in which they live who are not anything at home, taking the lead in the col ored society. The persons who are attempting to rnn society would no doubt like to establish a blue vein society iu this city as a cer tain class had in certain parts ol Ohio. The white people of superi or intelligence coudemu this class of Negroes. Social entertainments given by the better class of colored people in this city are cosmopoli tan in their character, except a narrow contracted class whose pre judices are greater than their in telligence. The Monday night lit erary is a cast organization. There is more intelligence excluded than there is in the association. Some few doctors who belong to it, re ceive their support from tho poorer class of Negroes. There, are a few holding clerkships who belong to the Monday night literary. Mes sengers, watchmen and laborers are excluded. It is on the order of the Lotus club. An amusiug incident happened one time at one of the meetings of this club, which is very ludicrous A gentleman, who has a white la dy for his wife and a doctor by pro fession, escorted a lady to one of these meetings and he says that he was insulted by the host because he asked for cream the second time. There are a few who will states that Mr. Rounds will prob ably resign the office of Public Printer in a few days. Let us hope so. Free, Press. " CLARA TO LOUISE. AM USJSMJSNTS.

There is anoth er class that society has made fools of and another that has made a fool of society. Parties, card par ties and receptions are often given by some to gain admission to socie ty. Another class of people are made to believe that, unless a per son is always invited out heis not of a society class. This is often among the more ignorant class of the Washington society or a chiss that has been admitted to the social cir cle by sufferance. DRESS is a great object among a certain class. This class will dress if they have to go without eating. The greatest fuss and empty show will be found among that class of peo ple who claim superiority over an other class and who come from the lowest elements or society. It is this class that does so much dis crimination, it is this class that has caused so many social scan -dais. Ex-register IS, K. BRUCE never was the man to practice dis crimination. He is geuefous to a fault. He is a man ot honor and not one to forget his friends. All classes were welcomed by Mr. and Mrs. Bruce, while he was Senator afterwhich Register of the Treas ury.

He is a guod man and one against wnom no objection c in be raised, except that he is minister. I favor your selection, Dr. J. R. Francis. The following named persons have been recommended to the Com missioners: Dr. Francis, W. H. Smith, Reve. Waring, Walter Brooks and J. H. Smith. I would also suggest the name of Daniel Murray. Mr. W. H. Smith has he jn on the board once and proved a failure. His appointment would be very objectionable to the teach ers and people.

He said that he knew only two of the parties, whose names he gave to the sher iff, who was present. He said that the "regulators," or Ka-Klux, told him that they were whipping him aud the other negn e$, too, because they believed that the ne groes were concealing and har boring a negro named Henry McBe h, who had a short time before shot a white man named Dink Rush, and had made his es- LADIES SOCIAL CIRCLE.
