THE ATHENS GEORGIAN; bjytl - X 3 if TA IH I SEPTEMBER 4, 1877 HAYES’ HOUSEHOLD. ; . j - < 1.1 ■ l *Y TKAJI OK IIOItSKS...PRESIDENT CiRAM'S OLD SERVANTS DISOL'STKD. [Inter-Ocean.] Washington, August 15.—The President*!! household row consists of Mrs. Ilayes, Miss Platt (a niece who ias for a long time made her home viih them), Messrs. Webb, Buiihaid, ;md Rutherford Hayes (yourtjjMp'-o iron 18 to *24 in age), and two lit'lc children—Fannie, aged 10, and Scott, 7. Almost any morning you can sdu. a carriage load of the President’s family driving about town. Some* times the ladies are shopping; some times they are making calls; some* times they go to the Cumjiessional Library to get books to read during tlm long summer days at the Sol ders’ Home. Mrs. Hayes generally dresses in black, quite plainly for this city of elaborate costumes, and she often carries a large palm leaf in her hand. Her carriage is quite handsome, but the horses is decidedly shabby. Nothing is quite so distinctive a mark ot social position ns the turn-out one goes about in, and President H: •yes’ horses are criticised than they otherwise would have been had not President Grant been so fastidious in the choice of ids equip* ages. No person ever had in Washington a handsomer turnout than General Grant used to drive, ne had a pair of horses which went before bis car nage that could not be surpassed in this or any other country. They cost 83,000, and wore selected by their owner himself, who has as good * ire a melancholy expression on his countenance, to Which, in degree of blackness, a coal isn’t a circumstance. He holds the lines carelessly in one hand, and he doesn’t sit up so erect and dignified as he used to, but sprawls aU o'vcrjrthivjsdat like a back driver. His coat is ball unbuttoned, his boots are tmpolislicd, andhe dontt seem to care whether he wears his": | gloves pi* lint. And it’s ajl on ac count of those horses*!?ogers bought. If Albert hadn’t a large family of pjcaiiiniiics dependent: ou him for support,* ho wonld’t drive that team for love or money; but necessity knows no choice, and lie is holding on iu hopes the team may die and be n placi d with a better one. Albert is seriously suspected of a conspiracy to lame those horses so that they will have to be gotten rid of Jerry, who was Mrs. Grant’s foot man, is about the handsomest d.'.rkey that ever rolled his eyes. A mag nificent figure, over six feet tall, and broad in proportion, but lithe and active; a finely shaped head, well poised ; a moustache and impe rial that a prince would be proud of, and finely cut features; face as blaek more as midnight. But it is not Jerry’s manly beauty alone that makes him eminent as a foot man, but his general accomplishments and perfect mans ners. When there is business in hand, people of importance to usher in or escort out, Jerry blooms in all grandeur of his magnificence. When there is a delegation of citizens and cili/.enesses from the country, who are su.-peeted of having loose change concealed about their persons, inspect- GRAND SPRING OPENING OF Charlie Stern’s CLOTHING EMPORIUM! ! .

Uopse, Jerry rises an eye lor the fine points of au am- - • ,, , , . , r ... with the occasion, aud Lord Chester- mal as any jockey that ever bandied a whip. When he left the White House, President Grant sent them as a present to George W. Childs, A. M., of Philadelphia, and they are now pointed out as the finest team in Pennsylvania. But President Hayes has intro duced into their stalls pair of horses that look as if they came from a country livery stable, as they did. Mr. Rogers, the President’s private sccretrry, paid $300 for them in Alexandria. Now, Mr. Rogers is an excellent man ; he studied theology, and he has studied Jaw; he knows about all that need bhiknown pf phil- osopliy and art; lie 'can see Tne ftnfe* points in a legal argument or a doc«« trinal sermon, and can write a letter as politely as a letter can be written, but lie has one important weakness, and that is his ignorance of horse flesh, lio ought never to have been trusted to buy a team, 'l he horses are ill matched and clumsy. They trot each on his own hook without * regard to the other. They . have | both been accustomed to be hitched on the nigh side, and £very horseman knows that to hiteh trvo nfgli ftoiTes together will spoil a team One of them is a dark-mottled chestnut, with a white foot; thc.otber is a bright bay, with a whit6 nose. Any or.o can see in a moment that those two horses ought never to be . harnessed together 'any more than a blue bonnet 'ought to be worn with a gieen dress. Besides, they arc lazy. President Grant’s old-choachman and footman, whose faces arc as well known in Washington as Presi dent Grant’s own, are retaWd at tfie White House, but neither of them take a real active interest in their business any more. Albert, the coachman, drives alone, but be looks like a widower, and 'aiptaj^ff fjt^was thinking of killing himself. And it would not be a surprise to persons who know the facts if both Jerry and Albert were found some morning with their throats cut and razors in their hands. Before the 4th of March, as they rode on the box of President Grant’s carriage, with their long blue coats and silver buttons as large your hand, their stovepipe hats and white gloves, they looked the pgpqgyCIgen the sun shone on. But since this civ* il service reform in the carriage lino was introduced, they hare found bill that this world is a hollow mockery their work and pi and filled with saAvdust. :A you see Albert driving, a$d> you i TUTPSPILLS A Noted Divine says They are worth their weight in gold.

On reception days at the White House for the last eight years, in swallow-tail and white kid, gloves, Jerry assisted Mrs. Grant, and was the most (listbufue feature of the en tertainment.
