ÆiUjuUlt Siti] gemili LrUt-r From Jo«e|»hinr. Washington Letter. He is the comptroller of the U. S. treasury, and he does not see why eleven carriages, at #20 apiece, should be paid for out of Uncle Sam’s pocket to convey nine justices of the supreme court from their room in the capitol to the White House to pay their New Year’s respects to the president. But what can be done about it ? All such expenses are approved by the justices themselves, liverymen feel at liberty to make their charges correspond with the prodigal hilar ity of the season, and while jus tices are very plain, sociable peo ple, when off duty, they think that on state occasions they must have due regard for the eminence of their stations, and not be too par ticular about the price. They would say that on New Year’s day they call not as individuals, but as members of the U. S. supremo court—by virtue of a custom that is tantamont to a statute and that it is perfectly proper for the gov ernment to pay the cost of the per formance.
