Washington Soc'ety- j
In the Washington correspondence of I S
the New York Time*, wo find the followjn<r
n<;r?cal>)c sketohes : j 11
lu i? social point of view, the city has "!
not been ho guy or brilliant for many son- ?'
?ona. Ilospitality prevails on every side, J1
except in tho one direction which, for the j ^
honor of the country, it may he as well not j S(
to name. Postmaster (2niu..-..l i? ?*
... v.v..v>Mi j/iuii ii jwvj's j p,
open house, and his gracious lady gives a j ^
warm and true Southern welcome to all , 01
who enter her superb and stately rnusion. ^
Mrs. SI idol 1 is extremely, almost painfully,
impressive in her demonstrations of :
courtesy. With the manners of a French
woman, and the impnlsivoness of her no- j.j
tive South, she evidently regards all men, f
women and children as her husband's propent
or nrosnootivo " " ? ' ^
it is her duty to captivato ut whatever eost '1
of exertion, smiles or complimentary vollu- ^
bility. ii
Mrs. Senator (5 win, a queen-like hut vdry
grafctous ladyj wlio.se Qgui'O is of tlio ?Fu? *
>10 ordor, dispenses almost royal hospitali- j,
lies, whiehare made more agreeable by the :al
kindness and frank, condescension of
or pleasant manners and address. The
jnutor umcii resembles the stately pen- j
tiiuen of the days gone by, mid rather ; t]
rides himself, it is 'said, on his resemblance <?
> Andrew Jackson. What lie mpy lack 'j
i quickness is made up in urbanity ; nnd
not brilliant in conversation, he has tho \
irttic of never spooking bitterly of those y
,'ith whom lie associates. "
Mrs. Douglas is, beyond nil question, J
10 Senatorial belle. Vonnjr, beautiful nnd I j
.'inning?never constrained in courtesy, l t
ut filling her position with easy grace? 1 )j
iiev pmonco seems to dissipate all political I '
ispciities ; and one might very rightly think V
that 118 ninny rocruits to the Douglas cause I *
liavo been unlisted by her smil 8 as by her i
husband's cloqucneo. n
The dashing Mrs. Clement Hill, whoso, '
house is the rendezvous for all that is dis- 1
tinguished in Washington society, seems (
to have no political proclivities, and her I t
drawing rooms arc n kind of neutral ground \
whereon people of all opinions may meet in >
uncompromising intercourse.
l>..i aV 1 1 '? - " *
i>ut cue urijriupartteular star of the metropolis
is Mrs. Conrad, a young Southern j
widow, who lnis h natural gift ot' diplomacy, N
nnd takes to politics and plots just as nfttu- V
rally as young school girls do to bright rib- 1
bons, rich laces and Parisian gloves. Krotn
th?. Vice President down, through nil gindations
of Senators, Congressmen, finnn- ?
oicrs, journalists and artists, hev empire is c
undisputed. She has the kink of voice "
which St. Paul, or some other good author- j
ity, pronounces to be an exccllunt thing in \
n woman ; and, as might naturally be ex- ;
j>octed, thin Talleyrand in crinoline is not a v
little envied by many of the less gifted and
less brilliant of her sisterhood. J

burglars and robbers. lie was in- <
duced to keep a pistol near at hand from i

vuiMUHiwii in it in iiiiiiicimac neighborhood.
This (Monday) morning, about 4
o'clock, llridget Lcddy, a domestic who has
lived in Mr. Ihirnard'n family for some
months, arose and proceeded below stairs .
to make a lire. The noiso made by her 1
aroused Mr. B'lrnufd from his slumbers, '
who was strongly impressed with the belief f
that burglars were in the hortso, ho not giving
it a thought that ttridget was up. lie
aceordinirlv raised di? ?" ' < *?

of his sleeping room Opening into the
yard ancl cried out, M who's there?" kcv- ?
cm) times. ?
Tho noise was heard by the girl, who unsuspectingly
thrust her bend from the
basement window and looked up, for the
purpose of seeing from whence tho sound x
emanated. She was discovered by Mr. t
Bernard, but he mistaking her in the dark *
for n burglar, drew his pistol and iircd down, _
sending 0110 or two bullets in the right side
cf her m>d ?l?o>ildor. Rridiret gave "i
ftno scream and fell to tho lloor, which I J
\r.. i? - ?
1'n imriiiiru 10 nic roah/.tng tact ?
of the Horrible mistake ho had made. In J1
his anguish ho exclaimed, " My God. I 11
hnvo shot the girl," and ran down stairs where
he found her almost speechless on
the floor, and tlio blood gushing from her J
wound*. ])r. .Mott was immediately sum- (*
inoned and endeavored to probe the wounds, Hl
but was unable to do so in n satisfactory T
i^v;y'. manner. He found two wounds, one in
. the head below the right our, and the oth- ?
Or lower down in the nock nr AnMilai- k..?
E whether theso were made by one ball, or j
whether the pistol confined another bul-1 \
Jet, the doctor could not definitely deter- j
