Tlio Dctnocrfttlo Girls Getting Square With Their Former Itopubllcan Tormentors , There was lively times on inauguration lay at Yassar college , writes a Tough- joepsio ( N. Y. ) correspondent to the ? ow York Sun , for the democratic asiios of the Institution had an oppor- unlty to "get equaro" with tholr ropub- ican cDinpanions. Lisi November the opnbllcans , by far the most numerous mriy In the college , celebrated Blaino's lection before the returns were all in. Dn that occasion the democrats nnd the acuity entertained the supposed victors with an oyster supper , tha memory of vhlch became n joke when the true re- ult wni known. Last night , the ropub- leans , in return , received and feasted , ho democrats. At 8 o'clock the recop- ion committee took a stand In the inii- dlo porlor , which was bnndsomcly dec orated with lings and pictures of the ex- iroslilont and of the president and vlca irosldcnt-oloct. Soon the faculty , anchors , and students came pouring in. Phon there was dancing , lu the midst cf which the Anti-Cleveland club sang a dirge : Vnd many n Rood republican hurrahed for Blnlne , And , reviling the littln democrat , sbo said : ' You'ro loft again I" so wo don't K'J'dRO you or Cleveland your euccesa to-night ; So tnkc , pray , the good wishes that are yours by right. The democratic girls , in strjng chorus , responded : 3orae rnlly lo-nl h my girls : " . " Our Cleveland baa Sing "Victory. con quered. Triumphant are wo. Vo'vo eaten tlio cracker , and also the stew , of humiliation , And now you must , too.

After the songs , all marched In proccs- lon to the dining room. Over the door in elaborate drapery of red , wbito and ) luo framed n picture of Cleveland , to ward which the republican girls glanced athorgloomily. But tbeirdiimay reached ts height a3 they passed under a largo tnd formidable yoke suapondod over the nnordoor They were appeased , how- nor , by fragrant whiffs of the oyster upper , their generous tribute to the vic arious democrats. The downcast ropub- icius were further revived with a song mm their glee club to the tune of 'Yankee Doodle ; " The 4th of March has come at last , And p'raps you'll think to find us All groaning ever the defeat Of which the day reminds us. CHORDS. Cleveland's got It , wo don't care , Though IIQ'D inaugurated. And all you valiant democrats , With triumph are elated.

In its Washington correspondence re- ontly the Now YorkWorld | publishes the ollowing over the signature of T. 0. J raw ford : There hai been no private ccretary who has como to iho White lonso for many years who has had the ? Ido political experience of Colonel Jamont. Ho possesses Cleveland's can- idouco to a remarkable degree. Ho has > eon his close advisor and has for a long imo been taken into his confidence. At Albany , however , the situation la much Iliiurent from that at Washington. There amont iraa practic illy Clovsland's oaly adviser. Hero Cleveland has seven oouu- ellorp , who will see him every day of Ills Ifo , five of whom are very prominent1 , niluential men. In addition to these tounaollora , the democratic leaders of } oth boaecs will have acoecs to him , and will insist upon giving him advice. No resident cm escape this , unless ho should cut loose from his party. No president vould dream of doing that unless Impelled 3y very extraordinary circumstance ; . I understand the the now private aoc- i-atary is a very dlplom tie and adroit pol- tlclan , who has much more skill in creating ing friends than tbo average man of his ago. Ho dooj not believe in making leedloss enemies. Hii present position s ono that will try his ability. If ho can maintain his Influence and close relations with the president in the face of countor- niluoucos that will sorround Clovilind lore it will show that ho Has very marked ability as politician and diploiiutitt. The outgoing Private Secretary Phillips was Mr. Arthur's private secretary in the custom house in Now York. Ho was ap pointed his private secretary when Arthur became vies president. Ho followed the latter to the Wblto houso. Ho is a very amiable , carefully-dressed ypncg man who is fond of club life and ( joing ont in society. Ho kcowa nothing , however , about politics , and baa had no moro t : do with the politicians and no moro In fluence upon the Whi'o ' bonso policy than If ho bad been a clerk in a department. A number of public nun hold that tbo position of private secretary to the prral- dent should bo raised in Importance. The present salary of tbo position Is $3,250 a year. Judpo David Davis used to say that the ualiry of this pl&co ought to bo raieed to $0000 or $7000 a yoir , BO thai tbo president could secora the services oi a man capable of taking nearly all of the detail work of the administration off ol his hands. It is possible that Colono Lamont'a administration of the oflice wll result in the salary of tha position being raised , for it is generally conceded thai his services would be cheap nt donblo the silary-that is now paid. Confederate Pension j in Teiincflsco. The Tennessee homo of raprosonln lives luve bean having a high time over a bill to Increaio iho s'ato pension five dollars per month to confederates who lost both eyes In battle. The presen peniion is ion dollars and the bill pro vidoa for fifteen clollira.

On the 17th of Fobrtmty a mountain Ion weighing over 200 pounds , and neisurlug seven feet from the nose to ho tip of the tall , was killed on Iho ingo between here and the Missouri. Dn the morning of the fame dote Mr. jvnuos nnd his son Ole , n boy fifteen rears old , were out in the mountains bo- .weou flllgor's ' and MoClond's ranches , aking ont timber for fencing.

The animal upon receiving ho fire , sprang upward and climbed till fttt the r np the tree when , from his elevated porch ho ent forth a series of roars'that inado the nountalna resound with tholr echoes. ? ot In the least deterred by such fierce ixpoctulations on the lion's part the > oy fired again , and this time brought ho boast crashing down through the iranchos. Ho Isy for a few minutes > nttaUy stunned upon the ground , and ho'dog , which had hitherto kept in the tackgronnd "because ho could not climb i tree , " now rushed forward to finish the ) east , bat a powerful blow from ono of .ho lion's paws sent that dog on an ex cursion through the atmosphere that had a wonderful effect in calming his 'nthuslaarn. Indeed , the dog now elt such an utter lack of confidence ia lis own abilities that ho could not bo in- luccd to return to ho charge. The lion , xftor this little by-play , reassumed hi ) role and consulted his safety by taking to mother tree. This iimo the brnto left lia head exposed , and , seizing the oppor- unity , the boy lodged a bullet in his train. This teim'nated the battle , and ha plucky boy returned he me.
