IMMIGRATION AT NEW YoKK.We give below,
from the books Of the Commissioners OF Emf
grafton, n statement Of the number of emf
grants arrived at this port for the last seven
wears. 1t will be seen that during that peri
cd, l,946,39S emigrants landed ON these
shores. This year is the first that has shown
any diminution. Another curious fact will
be noticed-formerly the Irish emigration
largely exceeded the German; now the re-
verse is the ease. In 1851 the German emf
grafton was 69,S83 and the Irish l63, 256
In 1894 the German emigration was lie, $50
and the Irish $4,000. This year still larg-
er difference will be noticed. IN. Y. Herald.

Some years ago we copied the following
sterling bit of fun from the Texas Morning
Star, published ut Houston. 1t lately fell
in our way again, and we determined to start
it for second heat We will take no small
odds that in three months time it will have
been published in half the newspapers in the
country tx.
AouATIC ScENEs.-During the hardest of
the storm the day before yesterday, we took
n lounge down to the steamboat landing.
While standing on the brink of deep gully
that emptied its torrent of water into the
bayou, our attention was attracted to the
bottom of the gully, where drunken loafer
vas stemming the torrent and holding on to
q root anchored TO the bank The poor fell
low, not knowing any one was near him, was
combating his fate manfully, and in calcu-
lating his chances of escape gave utterance
to the following
'sIIaint this an orful salvation to be plac-
ed in nohow? If was steamboat, or a
rail, or a wood pile, I'D be better worth fifty
cents on dollar than I'll ever be agin. Tn
less I'm a gone case now, there haint no
truth in phrenology. I've weighed oil the
chances now like a gineral, and there are on
ly two that bear in my favor; the first is a
skunk hole to crawl into, and the second q
special interposition of Providence; and the
best Of the two are 50 slim, If | only had
the chance, I'd give the premium for the
skunk hole-them's my sentiments II |
could be mink, or muskrat, or water snake,
for about two minutes, perhaps ! wouldn't
mount the first step t'other side Of the Bio,
and Zap my wings and crow over precious
life, scientifically preserved. But what's the
use holding on TO this root? There haint
no skunk hole in these digg ings-the water
~ getting taller about feet, and il my nose
was as long RS infnity, it wouldn't stick out
much longer.
"Oh, Jerry Jerry you're gone sucker,
and guess your marin don't know you're
out poor woman won't she cry the glasses
out Of her spectaces when she hears that her
darling Jerry has got the Bufferloe Bio for
his cofhnP What a pity tits some philan-
thropic, or member Of the humane society,
never had foresight enough to build u house
across this gutter, with steam engine to
keep out the water. If they had done so in
time, they might have had the honor and
qualification of saving the life of Teller be-
ing; but its all day with you Jerry, and a
big harbor to anchor in. It's too bad to 60
of in this orful manner, when they knows
alters hated water ever since | was big
enough to know 'twarnt whiskey."
Before Jerry got TO the conclusion he was
washed into the bayou, within few feet OF
large fiat that Just started for the steam
boat. His eye caught the prospect Of deliv-
erance, and he changed the burden of his
drige into thrilling cry of, "Heave TO, q
passenger overheard and sinking with belt
full of specie. the man who saves me makes
his fortune' Jerry was fshed out by 9
darkey, and, to show his gratitude, invited
! Quashey to ''go up to the groggery and Ii.
quor."

w. II. SEwARp.-Some Southern journals
have been prematurely announcing the down
fall of ". II. Seward, and charactcrizing
hun Us collapsed specimen Of cunning me-
diocrty, inflated by boundless ambition and
selfshness. This is an egregious mistake,
both as to the political fortunes and intellect
of that remarkable man. Ii is not prudent
to despise our enemies, and those who would
create the impression at the South that Mr..
Seward is no more than a shrewd but shall
low intriguer. are unwittingly doing more
harm than If they magnifed his ability and
influence tenfold of what they really are. In
truth, he is the great magician Of Northern
politics. AS Louis Napoleon has studied
French character, Seward has discovered the
ruling eiemen Is in Northern politics, and en-
ployed them with mastery skill He is deep
in his policy, and the result, rather than the
process, shows where il has been at work
1t is idle to speak of his decadence. We
confess that we see no evidence Of it and
certainly not in the recent b2llotnes for
Speaker. The l07 votes received by Banks
expressed but partially the anti-slavery idea.
which is the lever Of the Seward policy, and
the - Nebraska votes from the North may
show, proximately, the very small margin on
Northern soil which that idea has not yet con-
quered and made its own. Does that show
the decline Of Sewardism Scarcely, we
think n. O. Delta.

e1F7 DR.. Foote, in recent letter to the
Buffalo Commercial Advertiser, dated from
the European capital, says:
Members of one House are not permitted
on the floor of the other, nor, as AT Washing
ton. can the floor of either House be inya-
ded BY swarm Of privileged persons not
members. The Commons would resent it Ms
gross breach of privilege if the highest
peer OF the realm should presume to enter
their hall while they were in session. How
often is our House Of Representatives scan
dalized by the presence on its floor and &c.

and our State Legislatures there is little
doubt that it would conduce to the quietness
and responsibility of both.-( Albany Argus.
