CUTTING THE PRESIDENT'S TROUSERS.

“They say” that the Presidents idiosyncrasy is the cut of his trousers; that he had a tailor on from New Yoifc to cut him a pair, and was so pleased with the .immaculate fit of them that he made the man cut eight pairs of them before he left; also, that the material was first laid down on the floor, and then the President was laid down on it, and, when one side was out, the tailor deftly flopped him over as if he had been a griddle cakepand cut the other side.— New York World.
