Excerpt from Old Washington Unvisited by them. The Civil War had surged over the country, scarcely causing them a heart-throb. When Early made his raid upon the borders of the town they only smiled to hear of it; they were Southern ladies, and safe in any event. Soldiers marched and countermarched in street and avenue - they only bowed their blinds and sat farther back in their parlors. Milly and Hark became free people; the country rocked with jubilation and blazed with ban ners so far as they were conscious of it they regarded it as a part of the latter-day ruin. A President was impeached; it did not signify; the new Presidents were like chil dren playing with crowns and sceptres. As nearly as possible time and the march of nations stood still that Miss Veronica Sidney and her sister Sedley might pass, pausing, if not with that President who had been an uncle-in - law of some long dead aunt of theirs, yet with his immediate successors. The income of these old gentlewomen was very small, consisting of the rents of certain houses, sometimes paid and some times not, and it was now smaller than ever.
