CATCHING THE SPEAKER's EYE.-The Waterford
reland) Mail is the authority for the following an
ecdote: Feargus O'Conner came into the House one
morning lately with bright green cravat round his
neck Of many and brilliant colors, which
was displayed to the very arm holes, gold watch
chain all abroad, and pair of double bleached Rus
sian duck trowsers. He had speech to make, and
was dressed this conspicuous fashion that he might
catch the Speakers eye" He had seen fellows
in dusky black and brown stand up ten times night,
stretch out their right hands, and then SIT down
again, each time invisible or dimly SEEM there
fore he assumed this gtterng array, and no sooner
did he dart into the light than the Speakers optics
were fascinated by rattle-snake or fash OF
lightning.
