The Portage Sentinel says:-"We see
by our Republican exchanges that the
foreigners are undergoing their usual an
nual damning at the hands of the used
up opposition. They receive a damning
after every election, q double damning
after a Congressional election, a triple
damning after a Gubernatorial contest,
ard a quadruple damning every time a
Democratic President is elected They
have become so used to it, however, that
we presume they care very little about
it; but we should suppose that common
prudence, if not past experience, would
dictate to the opposition a different
course, for in less than a year they will
again be on their knees begging for for
eign votes. 1t must be very gratifying
for those foreigners who voted for Ere
mont, to see themselves stigmatized in
the Republican organs as "paupers,'
I" vagabonds, {" "ignoramuses, &C.,
merely because a majority of their coun-
trymeu exercised the right q suffrage
without taking the advice of the Know,
Nothing and Abolition leaders"

The New ENGLAND STATES are rep
resented as voting for the first time as
a unit at the recent election The con
traryi is the fact. Every New Englapd
State went against Mr.: Jefferson ia the
contest of 1901 and in that contest,
says the New York Express, the ortho-
dox clergy (as they styled themselves)
were as active as in the present cam
paign- NJ. Jefferson was opposed from
the pulpit Sunday after Sunday during
tae whole canvass; called an In6del, ar
Atheists, a Jacobin, a dealer in human
flesh, and charged with being the faith
-er of his slaves.
- A distressing accident occurred
at Pittsburg on Friday. Three boys
playing in the loft of Mr.. Pattersou's
livery stable, fell through an open hatch
way partially covered by the hay, TWEEN
ty five feet, and struck upon a stone
gangway. George, a son Of Col. r. Pat
~terson, Sheriff of the County, was in-
stantly killed, He was IA very bright
little fellow. six years ofage, The 9th
err two, aged 10, were badly hurt, but
will probably recover. The lads were
walking across the hay loft arm in arm
at the time they fell. lrH
EDuring the nine months endiu g
with September, lo3, 53I foreign emf
grants landed at New York-3 coo less
than in the same moDtbslast year, and
less than half the number hat arrived
in the corresponding period of 1853 and
1854. The German emigrants exceed
the Irish this year by about 1000.
81 Intelligent conversation is the
great charm of man, the finest solace Of
intellectual labors, aud the simplest yei
most effectual and delightful mode of a
once resting and invigorating the mind
whether wearied by study or depressed
by struggles with fortune.
EE There are so many tender ant
holy emotions flying about in our inward
world, which, like angels, can never as
sumo the body of an outward act; 81
many rich and lovely flowers spring up
which bear no seed, that it is a happiness
poetry was invented, that receives int
its limbus all those incorporal spirits
and the perfume of all these flowers.

The oldest Senator.
-Tte dearh0rMr. Clayton b

The dEathlofMr. Clayton has very
naturally directed attention to the MEM
bers of the United States Senate, and
20 the point Of seniority Mr.. Critten-
den, ofKentucky, isnow the Father"
of thai distinguished body, having en-
tered it on the 4th of March, 1917. 1t
will be seen, however, on reference to
the record, that the now veteran SeDa-
tor did not exhibit any great degree of
fondness for the public councils; high as
the position of a Senator has ever been
considered. He resigned his first term
in less than three years, and his sue
cessor, the Hon. Richard NJ. Jobuson,
was appointed OIL the 10th December,
1919.
Mr.. Crittenden was again in the SEN
ate, his service dating from the Sd March
1885. He again resigned before the
end of his term, and his successor, the
Hon. James 7. Morehead, entered the
Senate ON the goth February, tS4l.-
Mr.. Crittenden then succeeded Mr.. Clay,
who had resigned on the 25th February
1912. and continued until the Sd March,
1849. He was elected Governor of
kentucky, but relinquishcd that trust
in July, 1850, to enter Mr.. Fillmore's
Cabinet as Attorney General. Mr..
Crittenden's present term commenced
with the Sd of March, 1855, making his
whole service about eighteen years.
The Hon. James A. Pearcc, of Mary
land, is next in the order of seniority,
his services dating from the I'd March,
1843. He is now in his third term
The Hon. Lewis Cass commenced with
4th March, lS45, and resigned in l84s,
when nominated for the Presidency. He
is in his second term, which will be
closed on the Sd of March, 1857.
None of the other Senators now in
service date farther back than the Sd
March, l645. The seniors stand thus
Mr.. Bright, of Indiana, 4th March,
1915; Mr.. Yulee, of Florida, July 81,
IS45; Messrs. Rusk and Houston, of
Texas, February RI, 1916; Mr.. Butler,
of South Carolina, December 81, lS47;
Mr.. Mason, of Virginia, January 25,
IS47; Mr.. Hunter, All Marchrfe47;
Mr.. Hale, of N. Hampshire, 4th March,
l947; Mr.. Bell. of Tennessee, 4th March
1s47; Mr.. Douglas, of Illinois, 4th
March, 1s47; Mr.. Fitzpatrick, of Ala
bama, December 18th, lS4S; and Mr..
Seward, of N. York, 4th March, l849.
This exhibits more than the usual
number of comparatively new Senators,
but most of them have had legislative
experience in other public bodies.

"a party hunting in Angelins

EEA party hunting in Angelina
county, Texas, found in a.cave two =hu!
man bodies entirely petrified, dressed IN
a style neither Indian nor European.
The features and dress were admirably
preserved. A garment which must
have resembled a hunting shirt, seemed
to have been worn by each, and partly
preserved by petrifaction, was distinctly
visable, especially at its seams and folds.
On the waist of one was a buckle of pure
gold, almost three inches in diameter,
security imbeded in the body. The fea-
lures were not much shrunken the eyes
were partly closed, and even traces of
the eyebrows could be seen plainl y. '"'
