JOHN II. wHITCRAPT, Sheriff
!. I'd. pr lee s.
The true Democrat., 1854-05-30

CONGRESSIONAL ABsENTEEIsM.-We fear re- marks the Savannah Republican that the prac- tlce which some congressman have, of leaving Washington whenever they see proper to do SO, IS becoming too common and needs rebuke.- During the present session a large number of gentlemen connected with both houses, have absented themselves, sometimes for weeks, and even months; and we have seen it stated that at one period, sixty members were out of the city.
 The people have right to expect of those whom they elect to represent them, not merely to wear the honors of their office, but to dis charge it's duties faithfully. If their interests at home or out of Washington, are greater than their interests as members of Congress, they should not accept office, which requires so much of them.
 When absence is resorted to for the purpose of dodging question, the culpability is greatly increased. Itis neither honest or brave to have recourse to such an expident. Yet we are sorry to be compelled to believe that it is not an unu. sual device with some of the gentlemen at Washington.
The true Democrat., 1854-05-30

A FISH SToRY.-Four clergymen, Presbv- terian, Methodist, and Roman Catholic, met by agreement to dine on fish. Soon as grace was sald the Catholic rose, armed with knife and fork, and taking about one-third of the fish, comprehendlngthe head, removed it to his plate, exclaming as he sat down, with great self-satis- faction, Papa est caput eclesia'' (the Pope is the head of the Church.) Immediately the Methodist minister arose, and helping himself to about one-third embricing the tail, seated himself, exclaiming, "Finis coronat opus," the end crowns the work.) The Presbyterian now thought it was time for him to move, and taking the remainder of the fish to his plate, exclaiming, Tn media est veritas'' (truth lies between the two extremes) Our Baptist bro- ther had nothing before him but an empty plate and the prospect of slim dinner, and snatch ing up the bowl of drawn (milted) butter he dashed it over them all, exclaming, "Ego bap- tizo vos" q baptize you all.)

San Francisco-From the Pen of
 Bishop Kip.

The following extracts from letter from Bishop Kip, appear in the Albany Journal:
 I entered on duty last Sunday as Rector of Grace church. Dr. Yer Mehr, the late rector. is assistant minister, and is to take my place when absent. It is built of wood, gothic, some- what in the style of Grace church, Albany, only much larger, and is more church-like in it's interior and handsomer than any church in AL bany, except the Holy Innocents. It is only a square from my residence in the east end of the town. During the absence of Dr. Yer Mehr it had run down, but is now filling up fast and we anticipate, from present appearances, having all the pews taken in few weeks.
 You speak of the "reined society and mar ble palaces of San Francisco" It is literally true. There are more splendid buildings here than in Albanh. One, built of brown cut stone, for offices, etc., is as large, and fully equal in exterior to Metropolitan hotel, in New York. As to the society, there is more active intellect in it than any society have ever seen. There are more men of distinguished talents gathered from all parts of the Union-ex-members of Congress, like Governor Foote, Stanley, of North Carolina, Duer, of New York, Balhe Peyton, of Tennessee, etc. You may think it strange declaration but it is literally true that l never preached with so much difidence before any congregation as those in this city.

Rent Dav.

:" Pll trouble you now for my months rent, madam" said landlord, last Monday, to one ot hls tenants. Is ityer rent ye ax for now?" " les mann, two rooms, at seventy five cents per week, each" "Ah; now, can't ye wait a little time. Shure the likes of ye must have plenty of money" replied the woman, looking at the thin, bent form of the landlord with great contempt. "But, my dear woman, the money IS due, and" ooh, muther, is it dear ing me ye ar; an honest married woman and bllssed mother of siven boys, each big enough to lick the life of ye. Out of my house, ye monster, and lave off trying the virtue of good woman," and unable to give vent to her indignation in words, she seized his coat collar and fairly threw him into the street. The owner intends to let an agent collect the rent of that house in future.
