Wright, the junior pro prietor and editor of the Augusta Chronicle a-nd Constittionalist, died on 8uniday evening at the residence of ex-Governor Herschel V. Johnson, in JeOferson county, after a few weeks' Illness, ill the thirtieth year of his age. Mr. Wright became connected with the paper in 1867, and in 1873, after the death of his father, General A. R. Wright, assunmed charge of the editori al department. We have been a daily reaider of that paper for years and have ever admired the soundness of its views and the bright and attractive wily in which they were uniformly presented. Mr. Wright was an honor to Southern Journalism, and his death at a time when he was just latuling and was giving promise of a bright and useful career, is a serious loss, not only to his own State, but to the press everywhere. As the Chronicle and Constitutionalist, frgmu its geographi cal position, is most intimately con nected with South Carolina journal. ism, we deem it not amiss to pay tribute to the nemnory of tile bright inid that shall gleam In its column no more forever. The work 11e has (one shall live after hin. Four, Five and Six Sundays in February. Everybody is aware that February, oir shortest month, is distinguished this year by having five Sundays. This has happened but twice before during the present century, the years 182-1 and 1852 having like the presolt five Sundays in the shortest month. This will not occur again till 1920, a period of forty years. As leap year occurs once in every four years, and as there are seven days in the week, every variety of combination of days ini the week wihth days of the monlth must take phlce in a period of twenty-eight years, which is the multiplhe of four and seven. And tis wold be per petual were it not that three years ill every four centur'ies which ini regular' couirse wvould be leap-years, pass for common years, thle additional day not being added, February having as usuial but twenty-eight days. The years selected for thlese exceptions in thle leap year reckoning are the last of the years of the centuries which, being divided by 400, give a remainder. For example, 1700. 1800 and 1900 are niot ileap years, while the additional day is e added to all the centutrial years divisi ble perfectly by 400, sutch as 1600, 2000, 2400, etc., which are Leap-years. As the year 1900 will be a common year, thlose wvho live past the expira tion of the 19th inato the beginning of the 20th century will experienice the rare occullrrence of an interval ofteight years, instead of the usual one0 of four between two Leap-years. As Februar'y is the shortest month It seems paradoxical to say that some persons miay witness six Siudays In February, yet it is very possible, and by no means inprobable.. It is well * ~ known that when a persont travels round thle wvorld going eastward, he mneets the sun1 earlier every day and at the end of the journey has had one more sunrise than those wvho remiained1 at home. In othler words though the numrber' of hours is the same, 110 has had one day more than the others. Suppose now in sailing across the Pacific to America he comes to port on anly Sunday inl February according to the ship's reckoning, wve will say the 15th for example. On his journal 1s entered Sunday, Februa~ry 15th. On going out next day lie expects to find it Monday, when lie discovers every body in Suniday Costume, and on In quiring the reason, lhe Is answered this is Sunday the 16th of February, wvhich is correct by land Reckoning. * ~ Thus by means of ship reckoninig and land reckoning the day of the wveek is duplicated, two Sundays come together, and thle man will witness thc occurrenice of six Sundays in Febr'ua. ry. This Wvill happen whatever' Sun day in the mfonth (1st, 8th, 15th, 22nd or 29th) lhe comes to land. On th< other hand in passing westwardl3 around the world, the sun sets latem every day, and a day Is lost to thE traveler when he has finished hia journey. Suppose the west-bount traveler ends his Journey on one of th< Saturdays in February. H~e expect to find next morning the people keep ing Sunday, when he Is tbhd by thi landen that it is Monday. On< Sundayfis loot krom his reckoning anm he has but four Sundays in that month Time is solved the paradox of four xW ta *i fsUi~ ya i F~ebtnuary.

Sydney Smith's Ideal of Intensest Misery Literally Realized. Dr. Henry C.

"I say," replied1 Dr. Chiapiman, "I want three yard~cs of mustard plaster, ,and I want It just as quick as you can qnake it. Patienit is in Imminent dani ger. Delay may mean death." "Three 'feet of mustard plaster? Good heavens, Doctor, what ate--" "I said three yjards, not three feet.; at least wh'len I said three feet I mneatt to say three yards and I Immediately corrected myself. And I thinik thiat I mentioned the fact that this was a case In which there was no time to be lost." The Doctor wvas growiing testy. "But three yards of miustar.l plaster; wvhy, bless my soul I You wouldn't wanit that much if your patietnt wams a hippopotamus with the stomach-ache; sin rely, Doctor, you don't really met nt to say yards; you must mean inchies." Dr. Chapman assumied an air of severity becoming his professIonal dig nity amid muticipal offie. lie seemed on the verge of expressing a forcible opinion forciblv. There was a signilfi cant pause. Thn his severity faded away, his dignity relaxed and lhe chuckled: "The fact of the matter is," ho said, one of the giraffes out at the Zoo has an acute attack of bronchitis.

A Correspoident of the Philadelphia Ti'imes thtus pleasaitly gossips about the social liib at the Iepublican Court in Washiligton. Hie says: One of the most impressive and gorgeous receptions which the writer ever attended was given by the Presi dent and Mirs. Lincoln toward the last of his importanit term. Tle White House looked old, worn and dingy, for this preceded the golden splendor of the Grant regime, but the brilliancy and magnificence was made up by the scarlet uniforms of the Marine Band with the gilt buttons and shoulder straps of the brave defenders of the Union, who clustered about the Capi tal in those historic da's. The same struggling tide of humanity Inundated the doors of the Executive Mansion, but at every turi a soldier was sta tioned to keep the crowd within the limit of Mrs. Lincoln's law. Bayonets glittering over the daintily dressed heads and bare shoulders of the beauti filly dressed ladies who declared that "miob law" was now inaugurated and "they should never visit the White hlouse again, until a change." But. if the guests felt insulted at tie presence of the bayonets what was their aston ishment upon going into the "pres enice" to fhid a gentiine crown oin Mr's. Lincoln's head. It was made of gi t, but looked pitcisely like those whiIch are found on the heads of those dis tinguished women about whom we read in Agnes Strickland's "Lives of the Queens of England." Tle stones or gems were wanting, but the tinsel and gilt was all there. There was only time allowed to note that dear old Abraham looked down at the little "bobbing" woman at his side, as lie might at a frolicsome kitten, then a cold steel bayonet pressed the writer's shoulder, while the military gruff voice addod : "Pass on I pass on i" Afterward it was ascertained that the "crown" was a harmless hair-dress invented bv a Philadelphia milliner, and that Air. Lincoln ridiculed it so severely that its debut and withdrawal all took place the same night. It was Mrs. Lincoln who arranged that a division of society should be made after the guests have entered the White House. She had a door set. apart for the Judges of the Supreme Court, Senators, army and navy and foreigni Ministers. Members of Con gress were herded with the common people, and actually iorced through the same doot. When Mr's. Julia Grant succeeded to the sceptre she realized that any distinction of this kind would im-rkc any administration uipopular; so she decided that all per sons who entered the front door of the Mansion were entitled to the same social privilege, and all doors should be alike to the guests. But to get, over the difficulty and please rova tv as well as democracy, Mrs. Grant dis covered a side door, a sort of sneak entrance, where those who wished to avoid the crowd could pass in, take up their positions in the rear of the "throne," and glare upon the strug gling crowd of humamty as it passed by in single file. ARISTOCRATIC REOULATIONS. WVithI astonishmnenit thle w riter' learn ed by personal experience that Mrs. iiayes has revived Mr's. Lincoln's law as to the airistocracy of thme dloorS. Last Saturday for the~ frst time at a >umblic rcceptioni the w riter' enter'ed the Vhi to IIouse. Seeitng an immense crowd struggling to go through one door, and kept back by the puolice, while at anothier in close prioximity only now v ad then a few were pet' nutted to p:iss, upon inquiry it was learned thait a (10cr was set ap~art for the pii ileired few. As the hour wvas about to escpire and it was found that if w e waited eur "turn" with the cr'owd there would be no view of Re publiucan roy'altyv that (day, at least, It wvas leartied thadt a fat maun In another ptart of' thme Mansion had the powver to iet even a commoni person slip through thme aristocratic door, and by means of that bribery which the "minions of the press" knmow so w~ell how to be stow, access wvas gained to the "pres ence" and a picture was hung on the walls otf memory, to last us as long as thme soul floats d'own the great iriver of eternity. It recalled the rare beauty anid unstudied gt'ace of Ilarr'iet Lane as she stood by the side of President Buchianani, followed by Mrs. Lincoln and hot' tinsel crowvn, succeeded by the C mghiters of Andy Johnson, who said, "W~e ar'e plain people nrom the monountainis of Tennessee; too much, we fear, is expected of us." Then Julia Dent Grant, wvho possesses the wvonderful power of' conciliating all thme distr'actfng elements which hellp to utnite social and political society. TiHE MOD)EL OF TilE wHITE HOUSE. It is an historic fact that the 'White Ilouse Is modeled after the palace of the Duke of Leinster. This accounts for the lofty wvalls so decorated and beautified in frescoes that they resem ble ini intention, if iiot in genius, the neble creations wrought biy hiaphiale anid Mlichael Angelo.

President Hayes at the head. That it was strictly "official" was proved by the oi'der observed In their positionis. Just as the' departments are ranked the wvomen stood. Stateo, then Treasur'y, War, Post Office, interior and Attor' ney General. Mrs. Hayes may safely be0 called a "handsome wvomnan," and there will 1none be found brave euiough to dispute the palm. A brunette of' the purest type, with lar'ge, brilliant eyes that convey the Idea of surface but not depth-like a transparent window that opens1 into space-a rath er low, Greek forehead, over wvhich is banded that shining mass of satin hair. If the glossy coronet could be implroved by wave or' bangs; but the dlark, rIch bruniette complexion for bids this modern fashion, and Mrs. Hayes is an artist In one or more ways.

A pl.in, dignified, mnatroiily womal stood next to Mrs. IlAyes. A Jac cap-Quaker-like in its slmplicity rested on hier snowy liair, a self'-trim med blaek silk dress (for Mrs. Evart his not - wholly discarded mourninj for her beloved son) made one of th sinplest tollettes to be found in th 'crowded thnmg. A whole head an shoulders aboive Mrs. Evarts stoo Mrs. Secretary Sherman-one of thos creations which can be compared t< the.llies of the field in purity of styl, anid stately grace-occupyin'g the mid dIe ground between blonde and bru nette, her tawny lmir, With its natur wave gathered in the low, Greek coil without comb or ornament of an, kind. A simple black dress, relievei at the throat with illusion ruchings she seemed the personiied embodi ment of oie of Tennyson's poems: "Tall anti divinely fair." Not a beautiful woman, but one ere ated with so much harnony that th whole mortal statue would have to bi pulled apart to remedy the defect Mrs. Sherman would inake a mos admirable "first lady"-the very best of ill the candidates now in th field-for in all the years of her hus. band's official life at the Capital, he unostentatious charity, her kindi (eeds to the worthy and deservinghav enshrined her as a 1mtron saint il many a poor widow's neart. Imagine Aln English duchess who ha inherited the rare beaut-y which de scends with herediiary rank. Wi, are ,the *Engmlish nobility the fines speciens of personal beaut3? It i because its members leave nothing un done to perfect the physical propor Lions of the race. Of English origh Mrs. tamsay brings to the Cabine any amount of that material whici this administration lacked most.. I has already been whispered by thosi who ought to know that Goverioi Ramsey was not called to the War Offict because of his bloody record, but i was made necessary by the deficien:c in the social Cabinet, for while a larg< number of these society leaders werd equal to hand-shakimg, they were no quite strong enough to prevent mascu line yawns between the courses a official dinners. The coming of Mrs Ramsey into the field, even at this lat4 day, If'it does not win the battle wil at least prevent a- complete rout. M rs itamsey's long residence at the capital her supeiior intelligence and wiiiiiinn ways are doing imuc to retard tie criti cism which ended with the retiriemen of her predecessor, for it is openly do clared that Secretary McCrar1y wa hocus-pocused into a "jedge" becaus "Mrs. Haves could stand it no lonuer. Next Mrs. Ramsey 9tood Mrs. Yost master-General Key, who, in the )all guage of the Emperor Napoleon would be pronounced the greates woman, as he told Mame. do Stael "it if she who-ie the largest n Iuber' children." And yet Mrs. Key is rob bed of hecr laurels, for while 'she ha! only temn olive bi'anches, Mr's. E'varta hias eleven,"or' did have when the Hion William M. Evarts became Secretary of State. Mrs. Key is large and ub. stantial-Iooking,.without anmy p)articu. lar' genius In the style of dr'ess, as hem trying gown of red Waist and yellow~ sleeves sufficiently proved. It is only youth and beauty that can wear theat rical costumes with becoming eirect but when a middle-aged woman cai be found to take the i'isk lier' couragt should be applauded and her wvoundsi artistically djressed. Jutst beyond Mrs, Key stood Miss Agatha Schiurz, th< eldest daughter of thme Secretary 01 time Interior, rather more thani pleas ing ini form and feature,. but destitut<( of that indesciribable somnethine wiliel makes her father one of the lilstor'ica chiar'acters of his tine. The youthfu gir'l who stood by the side of Mism Schiurz mnighlt have been the niece o1 Attorney-Gener'al Devens, but as thier< is no proof on this point the subject bi omitted. MiIs. GRAI NT's WAY. It was Mrs. Grant who first invIted other ladies to receive with her, and ini those priimitive daysn it was often thE wives of the army officers. Mr's. Gon er'al Babcock was almost always at hei side. Mrs. Grant was v'ery "near. sighted," and Mi's. Babcock had th( faculty of relieving any embarrassnmeni wvhich might come from this misfor tune. Ladies whose husbands hiac never beena ini public life, except in th< diffei'ent pi'ofessions, wyere seen by thE side of Mrs. Grant or artistically girouped a little way ofi'.. The. receu tions of Mrs. Grant rneminided the b'e. holder of the picture of "Eugenie and her maids ini waiting." True, Mr's Grant did not not possess the beauty of 'the charming Spanlird, but biei "suite" wvould comnpare favorably ir dignity, beauty and grace with th< same number of wvomena foud neai any thr'onie ini Europe. Mrs Gr'ant grouped her assistants as exquisitt flwr fdifferent color and pei'funk aire gather'ed in a bouquet, making it blea uworth spreading on canvas airs. Hayes stretches a straight line composed of the' same women, that re minds one of a Bible Class ini a Moth, odlist meeting, or' would If it weore noi for' thme Pomnpadour corsage and cana ry-colored sleeves, and yet all this i permissible in the strictly fasionable churches 6f-the day.
