If Christmas day was tamo and quiet

festive social occasion. Nowhere ebe,
perhaps, is the day more generally ob.

by rcsideuts of tlio Capital, nud tho
many strangers within its gates, as the
iocicl event uf the season. It was never
ushered in with greater expectations
than this year and tho festivities nsver
opened more gaily, only to be brought to
a sudden nud sad termination by tbo nd
vent of death. It is tho old sad story of

General Sherman is mentlonod by a
number of newspapers as tho Republican
candidate for tho Presidency In 1831.
General Sherman docs not want the
nomination. Possibly ho is tbo only
niau in tho United States who docs not
care lo be President, and who would not
pormtt bis name to bo used. He is very
fond of social eujoyment. Ho has bad
his fill of lame aud is thoroughly weary
of public affairs. Tbo slight routine
work nt tho War Department is very irk-
somo to him, so that be looks forward to
his retirement with pleasure. Ho would
not exchange the comfort aud houcr of
bis assured position for any rough-and-tumble
strugglo with a set cf politicians
lirst, aud then, if successful, the exac
tions and importunities would make tho
White IIouso a "hell" to a gontleman of
temperament so nervous and erasable
as General Sherman. I seo that a New
York paper prints a paragraph saying
that General Sherman recently joined
tho Cathullo Church. This General
Sherman denounces a lie..A prominent
officer in the army says that a number of
yoars ago, when General Shcrmau was In
private life, ho was uaptlzed as a member
of tho Catholio Church. This ho has
hoard from General Sherman's own lips
He was never an active member of the
church, and gradually dropped all pre
tense of any connection with auy church,
He is very liberal in his views, and
should bo properly classed a free-thinker,
Mrs. Sherman is a devout Catholio.

Our country cousius who generally
pay Gotham a visit during tbo holiday
week have gone, and muoh as we enjoy
their company and their admiration aud
wonder for things in general wo cannot
but feci relieved over the fact. To serve
as cicerone for any extended period is
apt to become tedious. Tho one thing
that seemed to attract most of their at
tention was the Brooklyn Bridge. Its
inassivo towers which are a monumentto
the ingenuity of men to spend millions
when they belong to public funds, its
swaying span which will eventually des
troy Brooklyn as n distinct city and
make it a part of the metropolis as tho
territory above tho Harlem river, and
the suggestion of its foundation above
tho river bed, which cost so many lives
all combined to inspire a species of awe
which a Philadelphlan would give
great deal to aronsa in the Quaker City.
The dato of opening it has been so often
postponed that one ceases to believe the
nunouncemenU of the Commissioners.
Yet, it Is pretty definitely settled now
that pedestrians will havo an opportnni
ty to cross the bridge by the first of next
mouth. People havo ceased to believe
that the bridge will bo a practical bene
fit to the citizens of cither city at any
other time than perhaps iu winter. Pe
destrians by walking fast will be enabled
to save five minutes by Using it instead
of tlio ferry, but this gain will hardly be
sufficient to recommend it generally,
particulaily as tho ascending uf stair
cases niciiLs a physical exertion Jwhich
you aro spared by tho ferry boat. To
sightseer's however, the bridge proper
will be invuluablo sinco tho view from
the centre of it, down tho bay nud up

madding strife" of tho city. The bouses
at the upper cud of the road aro all old
and nearly nil of them havo historical
suggestions. Should you bo inclined to
leave tho regular road and drive into tbe
by-ways you will meet n charming varie
ty of landscape. You may climb up aud
down little hillocks and unexpectedly
light on rich paddocks where yon oxpect
t meet nothing but thoroughbred cattle.
Now, and thtn you will meet a half buri-!
ed tombstone, or a vault through which I
you may peep nnd see tho coffins which
mark tho places "where the forefathers of
tho hamlet lay," and then if you arc po
etically inclined look up nt tho expanse
of clear sky above you aud tho sighiug
branches of tho pines and listen to the
iEolian harps formed by the telegraph
wires and unto verses.
Mr. Theodoro Wallou, who has gained
International fame by his plunging ou
raco horses, is about to retire from tho
St. James Hotel which ho owns. His
enemies assert that his expedition to
England,, last, fall cost him so much
money that ho cau no longer 'livo the
pace." I believe however that tho reas
on is simply this that tho owners of the
building, the Ames estate, havo raised
the rent a higher figuro than' Mr. Walton
oiros to pay.IIej has been giving $10,
033 a year. Now they want $50,000, a
price which I am iuclined to believe they
will not get. Captain Win. M. Connor,
Well known throughout the racing world
as tho owner of Glidelia the famous raco
mure, and equally known iu tho theatri
cal world us tho maniger of John Mo
Cullough tho tragedian, has bid. I uu
derstaud S15.000, but his ofler-as not
yet been accepted. Capt. Connor pro
poses to givojin impetus to the bar.traiJe
of tho establishment to which Mr. Wal
ton has paid no attention. He has bcon
for some years a sufferer Irom the gout
and seldom went inside of the barroom.
Oapt. Connor proposas to make the
hotel n headquarters for tho theatrical
and racing world and compete against
the Hoffmann House With his popu
larity he ought to succeed should he get
the hotel.
William Barrett tho ouco famous Jock
ey, who rodo Mr.'JJPicire Lnrrill ird'tt
horses wheu they first ran iu Engl ind,
died nt Long Branch ou Saturday of con
sumption. He Jdied poor, biuco iu'the
later years of his engagement with Mr.
Lorrillard, ho grew careless in his habits
aud bis riding aud lost many races. Had
ho behaved himself ho could have died
well off. Teukes, Mr Lorrillard's present
chicr jockoy has a nice little farm near
Dckertowu, New Jersey, and is worth
about SJO.OUU. Coatelln, a youth of
eighteen, Mr. George Lorrillard's first
jockey, has about $35,000 invested in
stocks, all his own savings. McLaugh
lin, the American Aubjr, is equally well
oft, aud He-yward, Mr. Belmont's lamous
rider, owns property ou Long Island.
Hughes.who rodo for Mr. Junes E. Kol
ly last year, got a salary of S1.000 a jear
and ten per cent, uf hiswinniuu' mounts,
besides his usual ri.iiu,! fee. IIj loot it
allju speculation however.
