In conclusion, the committee would

Cheating about the oard!-The
piteous outcry Of the Globe, against the
intrigues of his own party, at Washing

OF story we remember to have heard
many years ago. of an honest son of
Erin, who kept tavern at Pittsburgh.
He was playing cards, and took coca
sion. when there was high stake on
the table, to withdraw secretly from
the pack, the three highest cards, which
he hid in his lap, and adroi'ly exchang-
ed for those which were dealt to him.
Confident Of winning, he knocked his
bic fist on the table, and exuliingly an
nounced that he would stand his hand
without looking at it. In the mean
while, however. some looker.on, who
had observed the manGuvre, slipped
the stolen cards from his lap. and CUB
s,i,uted others, and honest Jack never
discovered the trick tina, had been play
