STILL HARPrNG ON MY DAUGHTER.-We forget
whether we have vet informed our readers of the
great and important fact that "Persimmon," the re-
porter of the Tribune in Congress has been expelled
for publishing the ridiculous behavior of Mr.. Sawyer
of Ohio in the practice of bringing his dnner-bread
cold sausage SSc,-with him and eating 1t In the
House. One mention of this fact with perhaps some
structures on the injured Liberty of the press, We
should think would have been all sufficient but the
Tribune seems to have grown sbillious' about it, and
in ADDICTION to its own reiterated illusions has de-
vot ed column or more weekly as an escape value
for the indignation Gifts contemporaries the spleen
of letter writers. We give the following decided
ly the BEST most witty and Punch-tike hit we have
seen in all the incubations the deed has called forth,
and now on the principle that one should always say
smart thing just before he leaves the company we
hope the Tfibuae will ''drop de subject
More Congressional Usmpationi Outrageous At
tempt upon the Liberty Of our Sausage Reporter!
Early on Wednesday morning our Household Mar
ket Reporter was aroused from his comfortable bed
where he lay costly dreaming of cold Sausages and
the price of Poultry, and rudely thrust into car
rage standing at the door. After smooth and rap
id drive through several back streets, where the
face of the mud was yet undisturbed our Reporter
was stuffed into the Jersy City boat and then cram
med into Railroad Car. with as little ceremony a:
if he had been bit Of sausagemeat forced into new
sheath After several hours of very painful mo
ton and emotion, during which our Reporter tried t.
digest his thought (having nothing nothing else t.
digest) and to form some opinion as to the origin o

his appearance and gave him small link of sausag
with an insignificant piece of bread, telling him t
eat in silence and wipe his fingers on the newspape
in which this primitive provender was enveloped.-
Suffice it to say that by due course of mail, our Re
: porter arrived at Washington and was taken lmme
dately before the Bar of the House of Representa-
: tives. Here half dead with hunger,weariness,lo
seep-hs hair uncombed, his face unshaven, and tn
remainder of the cold sausage in his hand, he locke
: almost as bad as Member OF Congress- and MS sa
# plight must have excited commlseratlon In the heare

! Scarcely had our Reporter taken off his hat an
e looking around upon the dignified assembage with
much composure as the peculiar nature OF the cas-
IS would admit, than the Speaker, rose frowningy ro
s. his seat and thus addressed the cnlprlt:
it sWretched MANI Not deeming 1t meat to mine

the full terrors of Legislative Rebuke Tor having pr
d. sumed trie with the privileges OF this augus'ou
he by making sneering allusion to Member Thereon
your recent corrupt and malicious report OF the co

contempt and hatred of this House."
