The President will first receive In Cal.inet and tlie Diplninatic (.'"rs. Tin latter will wear the attire of their re-pec tlve forelu'U Court-;. Then the Justices the Supreme Court of the I'. S. will come and the Judges of the I'. S. Court o! Claims. Senators and Representatives 1 Congress are next in order, followed hyth judicial olllcers of the various District Courts, ex-Memhers of the Cahinet, urn ex-MinUersof tho I'nited States.

IVt-t-Ident next lu the full uniform of their rHiik Then Secretaries and assistant Secretarie! of various institutions, assistant postni ister general, and assistant attorney geueral heads of Hureaus, AsHiKdations of soldiers veterans, and the Oldest Inhahltants Asso elation. With them the ollicial reception closes, and the people's reception begins. Washington has never known u more prosperous Christmas tide thun the presen' one. Express companies report that In number and value the packages sent from the city this year are in excess of those sent last year by at least thirty-live per cent The clerks In the Postolllco say that the number of Christmas packages sent from here this year exceed those of last year by nearly one-third. And the merchants re poit very greatly increased sales of fancy goods for Christmas presents over last y ear. The cause of this difference Is in the policy of President Cleveland. At this time last year thousands of people here felt that the source of their incomes was menaced, and looked to the "ides of March" with dread. They were ton much perturbed to permit themselves any expense that was not abso lutely necessary. A large majority of the citizens here whether they express it or not feel In their hearts that the President Is to thank for their happy Christinas. The President Is credited with having aid recently In regard to one of his ap polntees against whom some objections had been raised, and if the objections were jus tilled, he hoped the man would not be con firmed. It Is due largely to the President's directness and earnestness of purpose that the Republican Senators have been forced to assume a more conservative attttude to wards his nominations. As unfriendly rltlc said something recently about Mr. Cleveland's "incarnate common plaeenestt" and ills "sturdy Independence," which, lie sikid, many people imagined to he a kind f genius. In reply to this some one said It was so rare a thlnr for us to have a Pies Ident w ho has the courage to pursue a com mon sense policy that he dues become, in so doing, a kind of genius. The Speaker of the House is fpen ling his holiday time busy at work arranging the House Committees. Members mani fest much anxiety to know where they will iw assigned. The desire to learn their fate in this matter before an ollicial announce ment ol the committees was made, kept Jiauj' Congressmen in Washington during the holidays, who would have gone home for their Christinas dinners had the com mittees been announced before the adjourn tjujut. Many questions of grave Import to the people of the United States besides the tariff and silver will have to be consid ered by the committees that Mr. Carlisle will name. He Is a patriot, however, as well as a Statesman, and no public interest will be sacrificed by him either through the gratllication of grudge or the Indulgence of partiality. The changes in the rules re. cently made involve many changes in the committees. One aim of the Speaker will be to place very cautious and judicious Members upon those committees that have charge of the Appropriation bills. The allusions that have been made to Senator Heck's recent speech on sliver as an attack upon the Administration were unfair. He merely joined issue with the financial policy of Republican Admlulstra thins for years past, lie referred in terms of sympathy and eulogy to the views ol the Piesideut and Secretary of the Treas ury as a whole.

The difference between tlie two sol diers was that Mark Twain was thrown Into such trepidation that he then and there abandoned forever the profession of arms, whereas (Ieneral Grant made on that occa sion the discovery that the enemy were as much afraid ot him as lie had neen 01 them. "This," says General Grant, "was a view of the question I had never taken be fore, but it was one 1 never forgot alter ward.

He said he did not think there was or had been a foundation for a building excavated in Salt Lake that did not contain a skeleton. He commended J udue Zoar very highly, and hoped the new bill by Judge Edmund's to dismember the co-operative church store belonging to the chinch and distribute the proceed to the respective stock holders by a committee of twelve men, would become a law.
