WAsm.VdTOX , March 2IJ. The fitting
out of the Grcolcy rclier expedition
creates mete discussion in this city than
in nny other probably , because BO hinny
of the young naval ofliccrs who nro to
go on the Thetis and the Bear ami the
Alert nro residents of this city. They
nro supposed to "volunteer" their ser
vices , but their volunteering is in tnou
CMOS the result of n polite rrj uost from
the officer in comrannd of the expedition
-to accompany it. A request of sucVi
nature cannot vroll lie refused i >

is seen on every Biao In this beautiful
city and the spring time hero ia the boat
time ; the period that all who como hnrc
or live hero are quito certain to rnyc
about. The summer time is quito n dif-
fpront thing , I am told. Congress iar
likely to ait into the summer , however
as Into as August almost everybody BayR.
The senate is to bo commended for its
dispatch of busiuoin ; but the house is re
ceiving condemnation on all aides for ita
procrastination.
Speaking of the beauties of the capital
ita fine points nro very admirably brought :

bers of the Century Magazine , especially
that 011 the White llouso by E. V.

The Lenten ao.ison ia moro rigidly ob
served hero than I had expected ; indeed
in n very model way. There nro no
longer parties ; receptions nro very rare
and at the card parties where dancing
closes the evening it is without other
music than the piano. Small dramatic
ontortainmonta , the matinee , the dog
show , nnd calling in n quiet wny are nil
the attractions. A much-noodod rest is
obtained and opportunity granted for
making moro mtimnto the ncquninto-
nances formed during the "season. "
TltUK MEIUIIIAN AT I.IA'COLK.
The city engineer nt Lincoln , Nob.
Mr. J. P. Wnlton , recently inado inquiry
-of the U. 8. coast and geodotio survey
through Senator Mandorson , to ascertain
if iho government would not establish n
true meridian at the capital nt Lincoln.
Mr. J. E. Hilgard , the superintendent of
'tho Burvoy , has replied that tljo dotor- ,
ruination of n true meridian nt Lincoln
would bo a very simple and inexpensive
natter if any person connncctod with the
coast and geodetic survey were within
reasonable distance of Lincoln ; but as
cuch is not the case at present , the cost
of Bonding an oflicur for that spocml duty
and bringing him back to Washington 1 ,
including his subsistence while traveling ,
would bo entirely out of proportion to
the actual oxpoiiso of the work.
"As soon as our appropriation for the
next fiscal yearbocomoa available"writes
Superintendent Ililgnrd , "tho work can
bo done by ono of our wratorn parties
without oxpon i < to the locil authorities ,
except for the nesc'tsary inonumunts , and
at tie ! same time the latitude ) and longi
tude of the plaoo will bo determined.
The importance of Lincoln na the capital
of Nebraska would inako the determina
tion of its geographical position dcsira-
ble Jn the rctrular progress of the survey ,
and Uio establishment of n true meridian
line can bo ejected nt the snmo time inat
an inconsiderable additional expense. "
A LIGHT UATTKUV.
A short time ago Captain 0. M. Mur-
dock , of Op. A. , Light Artillery , N. N.
G. , Wymoro , Nobr. , wrote to Sonatoi
Mandorflou asking whether it would bt
possible to procure from the war depart
ment two sir-pounder guns with equip ,
ments. The necrotary of war 1ms an
swered that upon requisition of the
governor of Nebraska , two six-poundoi
guns with carriages and the necessary
implements for firing talutes will bo furnished -
nishod without delay , under the law erse
arming tlio militia.
Senator Manderaon thinko , and has seer
written to Governor Dawei and othei
prominent om'cen of the Nebraska Na -
tional Guard , that it would bo wull ate
make an effort to obtain a full battery ol
jslr guru. Ono section would bo taken \
by Captain Murdock , another eeotioii
might go ( o 6omo company to be raised
in the northern part of the ttato , say at
Fremont , Norfolk or We t Point , and
the third section lo tlio southeast. Thcao
three companies , uniformed , each with
its section of artillery , could como to
gether under commanel of the scnior _ cap
tion or some experienced nrtillorist in the
state , ard at Fremont during the 0. / ,
11. encampment , or at the annual mi ) ' t ;
meeting would form an intorcstiti'
valuable feature There is j , ftt
awakening in the cast on Iho su e,0 : ° of

friend awaiting her. This waa Mra

Laird , a vivacious old lady. She has beoi
, confined to her house this winter , am
. her appearance wan an agreeable surprise
to Mine. Bishop. TJioy epoka of many
things , among thorn being the proposec
trip of Mmo. Bishop to England. She
intended to sail on the City of Richmond
, commanded by her aon-in-law , now on his
westward trip. While the great singer
was tolling of thoploasurouho anticipatue
at seeing her grandchildren in Livorpoo
. and her brother and sister in London she
waa aoized with a violent pain in the
head. She throw up her lianda and fel
, backward , unable to apeak , remaining un
conscious until her death on Tuesday
, night. It waa apoplexy.
Mr. Schultz , the husband , apoko yea '
tard-iy of the longing for homo whicl
possessed nis illustrious -wife. Not Urn
aho was tired of America , but she yoarnoe

Mine. Biahop made her debut in Her
Majuaty'a theatre , London , in 183 ! ) , she
being twenty-live years old at the time ,

Thtilbcrg. Both before nnd behind the
.
. footlights alio was feted nnd caressed for
her instantaneous victory. She had ro-
r"cowed the careful training of years to
bring her to that point. Her father , Ui-
vioro , understood his treasure nnd spared
nothing in order to lit her fnr her proper
alioro. She wna thoroughly versed in
llnndel , Haydn , Mo/art and Beethoven
before that eventful night. Her husband ,
Sir Henry Bishop , was professor oj
niusio in the university of Oxford. She
waa in n congenial circle.
The successful debutante made a
triumphal first nrtiatio tour on the conti
