Marriage Customs. San Francisco Post : The stories that nro told of Gushing , who is now in New Mexico making u study of Zuni traditions , is quite romantic. I met last night n gentleman who has just returned from a visit to Gushing. Ho says : ' 'You know when Gushing went down to Now Mexico llrst lie attempted to make a study of the Zunls , hut found out that ho could make no progress with them unless ho himself turned Indian. Gushing addressed himself to this task with his usual zeal , and after n short time the transmogrification was complete. Ho tells mo that the Zunis have a hut in which they keep the scalps of their enemies , and as long as this hut has n certain number of scalps the Xunis ay that the god of war is satislicd , aiul that lie does not want war. war.But unfortunately for the peace of the Zunis , the hut "which was built on the banks of the river was swept away by a sudden flood. The Znnis wore desperate. There were no scalps , and the god of war demanded at least two to avert an outbreak. Gushing saw a chance to prevent this war. IIo telegraphed for two gcnlps which ho know to ho in Washington , nnd which arrived in duo timo. The Zunis were still in great agitation when the two scalps arrived. Gushing for merly presented them to the chief priest and the war was averted. When the chief priest and the other priests had recovered from their surprise they began to think that Gushing was a man who could ncL'ompliHh any wonder. They looked upon his a god. and noth ing being J.oo good for him , they Imme diately admitted him to their priest hood , and ho is now one of their priests. This securing of the scalps turned out more lortunato for Gushing than one would at flr.fet suppose. For it saved him from matrimony. So pleased wore the Zunis with Gushing that they had determined to find for him a wife. A stout Zuni maiden was told to prepare. for his murriagdj'- Needless to say that Gushing did not fclish this proposition , and ho fought amunsttho coming of the evil day. IIo pud have surely been married had it not-Jcon for the oppor tune arrival of thw > o scalps , and his being - ing made a priWBf excluded him from marriage. Ciibhing has not yet made public any of the ro earolion , nnd it will probably bg , § 01110 time before ho does.

"Ono of the most amusing instances of attempted fascination I over wit nessed , " remarked Hugh Longworthy , to a St. Louis Dispatch reporter , "oc curred some years ago at a Murui-Grnq masquerade ball in Now Orleans. A distinguished officer of the army was present , and evidently hnd no small opinion of his powers as a lady-killer. IIo was a man of much culture and ex cellent manners , but wastho unhappy posscssorof a hugo and highly colored noso. lie fell into conversation with a masked lady , and each won ) manifested a very keen interest in the other. The ollicer was very anxious to induce his unknown companion to unmask , and after much porninibion she did so , revealing - vealing a face fully matching in at tractiveness a very graceful figure. The gentleman was oxnroftbing his ad miration , when the lady interrupted him by intimating that as bho was un masked it would bo only courteous for him to do the same. "Madam , I am unmasked , " was the reply , accompanied by an nstonishod look.

" THE PAY ROLLS OF CONGRESS. What It Costa to Keep the National IjpKlslatlvo AVhcols Greased. The Now York Graphic : There is ono bill which , when introducodjnto the senate and house of representatives is always sure of prompt nnssngo. It is the ono which provides for the expenses - sos of congress. The tariff debate may delay the consideration of nearly every other measure , but when unanimous consent is asked for the consideration of the bill which appropriates the money for the nay of senators and the members of the lioiibo and ofllcers and employes of both , not oven the great objector , Mr. llol- maii , of Indiana , will whisper a word against Its being brought at once to n voto. The bill lias just boon introduced fromtho _ appropriations committee , and in bpitc of the assumed , importance of the great tariff issue which is filling the Congressional Record with speeches for consumption during thd fall cam paign the money will bo voted that is asked for by this bill , and will bo voted soon. It is an interesting compilation , this ten pages of closely printed items , showing the way the- money is spent to keep our legislators in good working trim. There are just 401 members of tho'houso and of the senate , and to wait upon thorn and run errands and hold open the doors as they pass in and out , and carry the cards of their callers and take euro of the thousands of bills they put in they have employed about 400 people who are paid the snug little sum o $ (581,000 ( for doing so. Fact. Every member has ono employe , and for the service of the same tliero is paid an average of $ IM)0 ) each. The snug little bum of & ! SO,000 is required to pay the balaries of the senators , nnd for the compensation of the members of the houbo SI,005,000 in to bo provided , and this brings the snlnrics of our national lawmakers to a total of over S-,000,000 per year. It costs a little less than $150,000 per scbbion to pay the mileage oj [ the mem bers , and the country pays $50,000 to purchase the stationery for members and olllcers of the house alone in anyone ono session. The treasury pays $ o2,000 for reporting the debates , whether congress - gross sits for one month or for twelve , as the olllcial reporter , like most of the clerks , are paid by the year , though they seldom do moro than twelve months' work in the twenty-four months that make up a concrcbHional term. Right hero is where the political work ers come in ; over 8160,000 is appropri ated for clerK-H to committees , who have about the biinggobt places in Washington. Ono dny'H time each wcok would in all fairness uullico for the performance- their duties , and that only when congress is in bOHsion. When the' adjournment takes place the good clerks go homo , nnd the first of every month the bergcant-at-nrniB forwards a check for the salary duo him , just the sumo as if ho were engaged in the gov- ornmout borvlco every working day in the year. It requires 80S4,000 to keep up t ) > o annual * payroll of the olllcors , clerks and messengers thnt stand about under the dome of the capltol to do the bidding of our 401 working congress men. _ G.
