SSi-v - Wf -U . H B&J 1 jl J Editors ia Coflgress. Washington Cor. Chicago Time.) It is a bit curious to run the eye over both branches of the present Congress and pick out the men who are, or have been, journalists. The number is in creasing yearly. In the good old times men who hoped to do the State Bome service in the -way of legislation usually took the legal road. The political seat was then generally reached by scram bling over the bar and bench. Some- tunes, in the kindness of the popular Heart, tnc successful militia hero, or the man who had attained eminence in com mercial pursuits, was allowed to do the national chores. But old Father Antic, the law, saw to it that his own children were awarded the majority of the present political plums. By and by a strange race of nervous, Ensuing fellow's, around whose jackets ung a faint odor of printer's ink, began to creep into the comfortable chairs of General Assemblies and Congress. Very useful chaps they bad been to help make public officers of the lawyers and others, but was it not a little audacious when they commenced making public officers of themselves ? More alarming than all was the fact that when this leaven of press delegates began to work in tho Congressional loaf it was discovered that the new element was so efficacious that it could never "again bo slighted. So it remained and waxed iiowerfuL. To-day there are few of tho head-working political men in Senate or House who have not, at some period, driven the burning quill and fasnioned the po tent leader in a'newspaper office. Let me pick them out. In the Senate are Schurz, Sargent, of California, and Hannibal Hamlin, of Maine, ex-Vice-President. Kansas honors herself by sending two editors to the Senate, In galls who engineered tho Atchison Champion forseveral years, and Crozier, once published tho Leavenworth Daily Time. Cameron, of Pennsylvania, was also an editor, and so were Brownlow, of Tennessee, and Sener, of Virginia. Sumner and Stockton may also be counted in, for, while they have nevor owned newspapers, they have written for them, and have each compiled valu able books, which is almost as credit ablo as to be an editor. In tho House, Speaker Blaine raps turbulent spouters to order as lustily as he may have hammered down tho type in tho forms of the Portland newspajnir office in his younger days. The Port land A dvertiser and Kenebec Journal have been under his control. Gen. iloe. Ifawley, of Connecticut, ia principal owner ami editor of tho Hart ford Courant, ono of the best provincial sheets in tho country. Carles Dudley Warner is associated witli him in the paper, but, uuhapily for Connecticut, not in Congress. The shriveled Alexander II. Stephens, Vice-President of the ex-Confederncy, and one of tho strangest morsels of talent that ever hung for years between this and another world, took to tho sanctum after his incipient nation went to splinters. His editorials were never less than half a furlong in extent, but ho was eager to prove, as usual, that the only small thing about him was his jwor shrunken littlo body. Among the remaining editors in the Uouso aro Wolf, of Indiana, Phillips, of Kansas, Smith, of Louisiana, Willard, of Michigan, Lamar, of Mississippi, Havens, of Missouri, Mellish, Cox and Boberts, of Now York, Waddell, of North Carolina, Sherwood and Law rence, of Ohio, Kelley and Magee, of Pennsylvania, and Davit's, of Massachu setts. Tho Territorial Delegates eomo out particularly strong in editorial experi ence, tho men from Arizona, Dakota, Montana, Wyoming and Utah all hav ing served time at tho head of news papers. Alas for Illinois, she lias not an editor in her entiro delegation. Senator Sherman and Specie Payments. Senator Sherman, of Ohio, addressed the Senate the othor day on finance, tho currency, and specie resumption. He argued that it had been practic able during tho last fourycars to advance our notes to spocio value. If not, when would it be? Should tho redemption of the pledgo bo postponed until the public debt be paid ? One-tenth of the amount ot money which had been used to pay public debts not due would have brought tho country to specie payment. This thing of postponing tho fulfillment of our promiso could not be longer maintained with a view of reducing tho public debt If wo postpono redemp tion in order to pay the public debt it will bo many long years before this "consummation most devoutly to bo wished " can bo reached. H tho inflationists wanted $100,000, 000 moro now, how long would it bo before they would want another $100, 000,000 moro ? Men would always be in dobt, and always bo demanding an in crease of currency. Whero would it stop ? Just whero our ancestors stopped at tho close of tho revolution. He re garded it as tho crowning achievement of the Government that just after the close of the war it redeemed all its obli gations. The present is tho time to stop and bring our currency to a gold standard. Every bond or note of the Government had been issued upon a sacred pledge that tho interest and principal should be paid in coin. Had tho provisions of tho legal-tender act been carried out wo woidd have re turned to specio payment long ago. Many things had been done in times of excitement and peril, when the Govern ment was in danger, which it would not bo proper to do now. He was willing to take his share of the responsibility of those acts. Ah IIl-Trtatcd Lad Eleven Years of Age Hangs Himself. Wo find in the Wellsville Free Prczs of recent date tho particulars of a suicide which occurred .near that village, in which tha self-destroyer was a boy but 11 years of age. The story is such an extraordinary one that we republish it, this morning : The name of tho boy is Eugene, and that of his father is William Johnson. It would appear that the boy and his sister, aged 11 years, have always been objects of aversion to both their pa rents, and that from infancy they have wv Buujwi 10 uie most inhuman and brutal treatment. Kicks and blows have been administered for every littlo childish offense, and that these have only been varied by cruel and unmerci ful whippings whenever the anger of the unnatural father has been more than usually aroused. It is said that the boy, failing at times to find the cows when he has been sent for them, has re mained in the woods for nights and days together, rather than to return to his home and undergo the excessive punish ment which ho knew would be inflicted. Fer weeks past he and his sister hVro been compelled to cut from two and one-half to three cords of wood per day with a erosa-cut saw, under penalty of a severe beating. Last Sunday the pa rents went to a neigbor's to supper, ivin4T the children at home J Vnt, fc. fore going, Johnson told the boy to wa ter the horses. Returning to his house in the afternoon on some errand from the neighbor whom he was visiting, he ascertained that his instructions in re gard to the horses had not been com plied with, and at once commenced beating and abusing the boy in the most outrageous manner. When he becamo weary of torturing the child, he left the house and went back to tho neighbor's to finish his visit. Shortly after he left, the poor boy, according to his sis ter's statement, gathered up his play things and put them away in a little box, and then went to the barn. Being gone a long time, the girl followed him to the barn, where she found him dead and hanging by the neck to a beam. Buffalo JCrprc8H. Inter-State Conmerce Mr. Jlurlbut'n Project. The following are the main features of tho bill introduced in Congress by Representative Hurlbut for chartering a double-track railway company with authority to construct and operate a line between the Atlantic seaboard and tho Mississippi river : Tho purpose and object of the cor poration are declared to be to locate a track, and build and operate a railroad for freight only, with two tracks, from any convenient point on the Hudson river or tha Bay of New York, to Coun cil Bluffs, Iowa, or to such other con venient point on the cast bank of Mis souri river, in Iowa, as shall offer the best connection with the system of rail roads west of the Missouri river. lhe construction of the road shall be commenced within one year from tho passage of this act, and the main line completed within three years there after. Tho capital stock of the com pany shall not exceed 1,000,000 shares of S100 each. It is required that the road shall be laid with steel rails, or solid-headed steel rails of not less than (8 pounds weight to tho linear yard, and the en tire road to be constructed and operated in the best manner. Besides branches to St. Louis and Chicago, the corpora tion is authorized to contsruct such other branches as in the judgment of the directors may answer its purpose, but not more ihan two branches shall be made on the same side of the main line in any ono State. The maximum rates of freight allowed to bo received by the company shall be at tho rate of 5 mills per ton per milo for all distances exceeding 750 miles, and at the rate of G mills for distances less than 750 miles, and not. exceeding C00 miles, and at the rate of 7 mills per ton for distances less than 600 and moro than 100 miles, and at the rate of 8 mills per ton per mile for distances of less than -100 and not exceeding 300 miles, and at 9 mills per ton per mile for distances less than J100 and not ex ceeding 150 miles, and at 1 cent per milo for distances less than 150 miles ; provided, that in the winter months said corporation sholl bo entitled to add 1 mill per ton to all rates, and to all othor rates not included in tho term bulk freight, at such maximum rates as shall be fixed by a Commission to be ap pointed. A commission of fivG persons is to be established, three of whom are to bo appointed by the President, and two by the company, who shall have full power and authority to classify freight and" fix maximum charges on each class of freight and on each article other than those specified. The United States, in consideration of tho requirements of the bill, guaran tee an interest at tho rate of 5 er cent, per annum, payable half-yearly, upon a portion of tho cost of construction of the main line of the road. The bonds so guaranteed shall not be sold or dis posed of by the company except for cash, and at not less than 95 per cent, of their par value, and shall be payable at the city of New York, both principal and interest. A sinking fund is to bo created to reimburse tho United States, etc. This charter, and all privileges therein contained, are declared to be subject to tho control of Congress as to the modification, alteration, or repeal of the same. Thirty Years in Bed. A case for tho curious and speculative is to be found in this county, five or six miles southwest of this city, at the resi dence of Mr. John Collins. Miss Sallie Collins, his sister, who is supposed to be no less than forty years of age, has lain in bed for a period of thirty years, and, strange to say, during that time she has enjoyed good general health. We conversed with physicians who attended her fifteen years ago, ono of them for a period of eight years reirularlv. When about ten or twelve years of age, she was first taken to her bed, and except on two occasions, has never left it. Tho family lived for a number of years in a log house, and after Miss Collins had lain in bed about ten years, all of tho family were on one occasion absent from her room, and Miss Collins ob served a house snake leisurely winding his way on the joist immediately over her head. Terror seized her, and be fore she knew it she was occupying a bed in the opposite side of the room. In 1859 her brother, John Collins, built a now house on the plantation, to which, with other members of the family, she was removed. With these two excep tions she has steadfastly kept her placo of repose. It is certainly a remarkable case, and baffles the skill of the physi cians who have attempted to treat it. It is supposed to be one of the various manifestations of hysteria. She is ie ported to be happy and contented with" her lot, and her condition is a subject rarely mentioned in her neighborhood. Mobcrly (Mo.) Monitor. A Sharp Traasactios. A professional betting man made a good thing of it on the occasion of a lire which lately broke out at -ilie cotton-sampling office of a firm in Liver pool. While the conflagration was at its height and the burning cotton was being thrown ent of the windows upon the nags below, a number of brokers stood in the street discussing the sum which the waste would realize. Our friend offered to bet a guinea that the burned cotton would fetch 15, and as this was apparently far beyond its value he found no difficulty in finding per sons willing to take the bet. This he did until twenty people had accepted the wager for a guinea each. He after ward went te the sale and bought the cotton for 16, which he then sold for 12, sustaining a loss of i upon the purchase, but pocketing sixteen guineas as his net profits upon tho transaction.

The human heart, in all its expansive, limitless capacity for enjoyment, takes greater pleasure in nothing more than witnessing a portly, solemn-visaged man, the embodiment of natural digni ty, and importance in clothes, adminis ter a scathing rebuke to some " smart ' petty official. One morning lately just such a personification of innate dignity loomed up at the stamp window of a poBtoffice, and glared in gloomy and majestic displeasure at the busy clerk registering a letter, before he sprang to the window and asked the stately cus tomer what he wished. The great man did not answer for several moments. He gazed steadily and impressively over the clerk's head, and then asked, in pnder 0118 tones : " Is there any one here-r-fo who at tends to business ?" The embarrassed clerk blushed, fal tered for a moment, then, recovering himself, said, with characteristic and national cheerfulness becoming an offi cial of tho republic : " I will see, sir." And ho disappeared. He went into another department, tortured a carrier with an original conundrum and heard a good story in the mailiug-room, and came back. " Yes, sir," he said to the great one ; there are, in addition to myself, three clerks in the letter department, ono in the mailing-room, four carriers, three route agents, tho mail-driver and a janitor." " Ah-h-h ! I am glad there are so many. I may, in all that number, fiud ono who is at his post" And then he looked as impressive as a Special Agent, and was silent for three minutes, while the impassive clerk awaited his orders, and impatient men behind fidgeted and crumbled. Finally tho great man said, with deep bolem nity : " I wish one tliree-ceut stamp." The clerk tore off the stamp and held it, waiting for tho consideration. The great man made a somewhat longer pause than usual ; ho felt in his various vest pockets ; he gradually lost his look of imprcBbivo rebuke, liis chest caved in, and he assumed the aspect of an ordi nary .frail mortal, and he said : "Ah the fact is I'm sure ah in short, I find that I have carelessly left my purse at home. Can you kindly " The passivo clerk, with the faintest suggestion of triumph in his eye, waved the great man aside with : " Sorry for you, sir, but the clerk who sells on credit is not in. What docs the next man want ?" And we felt so good to see how that clerk was taken down by the dignified man that he went away and laughed for a week. Exchange. Jracc (ireenwood on Matt. Carpenter. There is something remarkably en gaging and devil-may-care and cut spoken in this jolly Mr. Worldly-Wiseman of the Senate. There is even u certain magnetism of good humor and good living, genius and geniality about him. Ho is a Webster with the dignity and decorum left out. Ho reminds ono of Sheridan and Rochester and tho Marquis of Donegal and other splen did old spendthrifts and goodfcllcws, of whom this penurious puritanic age and country are not worthy. Wo are a littlo shocked at some sentiments he utters, bntwo rather like him for speaking them out, and not concealing them or glossiug them over. We know just whero to find him, every time. His moral epidermis does seem to bo a little thickened by law and politics and Wash ington associations; he is so comfortab ly unconscious of the damage he may be doing himself by his ingenuous admis sions, and cheerful recklessness of state ment. He never knows when and whero ho is hurt. He reminds mo of one of Gov. Hunt's littlo camn Htorins. I In that is the Governor described a xor white family of Missouri, careless, shift less, and intolerably lazy, the daughters of which were accustomed to go barefoot till the soles of their feet became hard like unto horn. One of those young ladies, on coming homo one day after a long tramp in the rain after tho cows, was standing on the hearth drying her clothes, when her old mother "drawled out: "Sal, thar's a live coal un der yer foot." Tho girl slightly turned her head, and drawled back": " Which foot, mammy?" Old Hickory. A correspondent of the Jackson (Mibs.) Xcwtt tells how Gen. Jackson got his title of Old Hickory. He says ho got the story from dipt. William Allen, a near neighbor of tho General, and who messed with him during the Creek war. During the campaign the soldiers were moving rapuuy to surprise the Indians, and were without touts. A cold March rain came on, mingled with sleet; which lasted for several days. Gen. Jackson got a severe cold, but did not complain as lie tried to sleep in a muddy bottom among his half-frozen soldiers. Capt. Allen and his brother John cut down a stout hickory tree, peeled off the bark, and made a covering for the General, who was with difficulty persuaded to crawl into it. The next morning a drunken citizen entered the camp, and seeing the tent, kicked it over. As Jackson crawled from the ruins, the to per cried, "Hello, Old Hickory! come out of your bark and jine us in a drink." RaYeaoas Re&ato. Mrs. Ramsdell, of Davenjiort, Iowa, left her littlo babe asleep in bed the other evening, while she stepped out to gossip with a neighbor. Returning in half an hour, she discovered about half a dozen large rats in the act of eating tho child. On her entering the room they ran into a hole which led to the cellar. The child was literally covered with blood. The rats had gnawed the head in many places, eaten part of the ears and nose, the outer corner of th eyes, and nibbled at the fingers. Medi cal aid was called and the wounds dressed. It was pronounced out of danger, but will probably be disfig urea for life. A Pbodiqy.
