Kansas Ci yj who have turned aside from our ordinary daily avocations to be the t bearers to yourself and Mrs. Cleveland of this invitation over their own signatured of 21.000 citi zens of the city ot Kansas mty, in the State of Missouri, expressive of their, earnest desire that you visit their city at such, time during the coming autumn as may beat suit your convenience and tbo exigencies of the treat public interest resting upon you. , The anviiation' cannot bel regarded as coming only from Kan sas City, as that oity is the product and outgrowth of a region which ex tends northward to tne great taken ; is next in extent and has for twenty years; been pouring out prodigally its accumulated savings of ' money and: a noticable percentage of , its most energetic, capable and progres sive; .citizens. j,We believe that, a somewhat extended and leisurly vis it to this great country on the pirt of the chief executive of the, nation is entirely in the line of plain public dutv, and. wul be more than this a blessing in the end to the reeion and to the nation. You are not onlyi the executor of the nation, but the ! recommender ot its legislation and in the exercise of your functions to a'creat degree a joint legislator I am therefore charged with the re sponsibility of pressing upon your minds, for serious consideration, tne desirability of such extended and leisurely trip through that wonderful country, to which our own city of Kanfeas practically two cities in one is the main gateway. May wego hence in the justifiable expectation that we may have the pie sure and privilege of seeing you at our own city? ; ! v; The President replied as. loiiows: i4Mrj Allen and eenUemen.

Syracuse, July 26. Had the Pres ident of I the United States walked into tbe office of theVanderbilt House when he was here and written on the virgin page of the register the auto graph, "C. C. Hicks. Philadelphia," people 'familiar with the personal ap pearance iof Orover Cleveland could not have been; more surprised than three or four gentlemen were to see an incident so I ko this as to be abso lutely startling. O. C. Hicks of Phil adelphia,) is a gentleman who ijre-, quently comes to Syracuse in pursuit of trade,! whose resemblance to the President is really' remarkable. ? He is a trifle J older,- perhaps, looks his Jears, and is broader about the girth, ut in facial contour and facial ex pression ,is the double of the Presi dent. The peculiar expression which Mr. Cleveland habitually wears in his eyes, as if tbey were being hlinded by the sun, is Mr. Hicks' to a dot, as is the rather mottled complexion of the face. Ma : Hicks has a thousand times been told " of . the 1 keness he bears. and was once mtroduced to tne treai dent at ,Washiogtit as his double. Indeed, they frequently . met before Air, uievMand became treat. : t v " Still more unusual is the fact thai Mr. Hicks' handwriting is so nearly like i tbe - President's that ono would be ft forierv of the other.' It ia a small and nervous nana, almost term nine in its characteristics, and in h t. ters, like .the capital C is a close copy. Mrr Hicks says the resem blance in chiroeraDhv is as unstudied as , the personal likeness - A friend gueeeeted ! vesterdav that Mr. Hicks ought to travel, wit h, the prtsidiit roads where they stop his way, and spell him in tbe procession which insist on taking him by the hand. He could b introduced at any time with out the deceit beinsr aDoarent to the average observer. Mr. Hicks did not co to Favfettevillfi or ha mieht have complicated matters. - " ' - 4 i . f , TEHTEEftAY IX THOXAXTILLJB. Z AMidaMw i Atmmt m Uit With 'THOxasvillk, July 27. Special.

The artist, with good taste, referred to the warm feel ing which his people felt towards the United States, and expressed the hope that the bond of friendship should ever remain firmly cemented between the two countries. He waited an en tire week without receiving any rec ognition whatever, when he finally received a very formal letter from tbe president, declining to accept the painting;" Mr. Pullm was 'ereatry chagrined and addressed a second letter to thepresident, expressmg his mortification that an fact which was meant to show such respect and1 ad miration should be so indifferently received, and stating that his count rymen could not help feelinar the in dignity that had been put trpontbenx ibis letter nas never ten answered! nor naa air, ruuin received any rec ognition from the white boose what ever. , f - Well Epafcea Wrd.
