No one knows anything about the new President.

You could take your oath that everybody is in the dark.

Ratcliffe says he knows as little as the rest of us, but it can't be true; he is too old a politician not to have wires in his hand; and only to-day one of the pages of the Senate told my colleague Cutter that a letter sent off by him yesterday was directed to Sam Grimes, of North Bend, who, as every one knows, belongs to the President's particular crowd .-- Why, Mr.Schneidekoupon! How do you do?
When did you come on ?" "Thank you; this morning," replied Mr.Schneidekoupon, just entering the room.

"So glad to see you again, Mrs.Lee.How do you and your sister like Washington?
Do you know I have brought Julia on for a visit?
I thought I should find her here.
"She has just gone.

She has been all the afternoon with Sybil, making calls.
