The IRON SHROUD.
BY WILLIAM MUDFORD.

The castle of the Prince of TOlfi was built

W Of Sicily in all its grandeur. Here, dur
the wars of the middle ages, when the fer
plains of Italy were devastated by hostile
tons, those prisoners were confined, :or
re ransom costly price was demanded.
ere, too, in a dungeon, eXcavated deep in the
i rock, the miserable victim was immured,
am revenge pursued-the dark, fierce, and
Antying revenge of an Italian heart.

WEBSTER MATCHED BY A WoMAH.-In the
somewhat famous case of Mrs. Bodgen's will,
which was tried in the Supreme Court some
years ago, Mr.. Webster appeared as counsel
lor for the appellant. Mrs Greenough, wife Of
Rev. William Greenough late of West New
ton, tail straight, queenly-looking woman,
with keen black eye-a woman of great self
possession and decision of character-was cal
led TO stand as witness on the opposite side
from Mr.. Webster. Webster, at q glance, had
the sagaeity to foresce that her testimony, ifit
contained anything of Importance, would have
great weight with the court and jury. He
therefore, resolved, If possible, to break her
up And when she answered to the FIRST ques-
tion put to her, l believe" Webster roared
out, We don't want to hear what you believe
we want to hear what you know " Mrs.
Greenough replied That's just what was
about to say, sir" and went on with her testi-
mOny. And Notwithstanding his repeated
efforts to dSconcert her, she pursued the even
tenor of her way, until Webster, becoming
quite fearful of the result, arose, apparently in
great agitation, and drawing out his large snuff
box, thrust his thumb and finger to the very
bottom, and carrying the deep pinch to both
nostrls, drew it up with a gusto aud then
extracting from his pocket very large hand
kerchief, which flowed to his feet as he brought
it to the front, he blow his nose with a report
that rang distinct and loud through the crowd

Mrs. Bodgen neat woman ?" Mrs Greenough
-" cannot give you very full information as
to that sir she had one very dirty trick

ough-" She took stuff ?" The roar of the
courthouse was such that the future Defender
OF the Constitution suhSided, and neither rose
nor spoke again until Mrs. Greenough had
vacated her chair for another witness, having
ample time to reflect upon the nglorious history
of the man who had stone thrown Oh his head

The very duuce is in it.
Here's a big washing to be done,
One pair of hands to do it,
Sheets, shirts, stockings, coats and pants,
How will cr get through it?
Dinner to get for six or more,
No loaf left DER from Sunday
And baby's cross as he can live
He's always so on Monday.
And there's the cream It's getting sour,
And must forthwith he churning,
And here's Bob wants button on
What way shall be turning?

The bread was worked for baking,
The clothes were taken from the boil

How nice the kitchen used to be,
Her dinner always ready
Exactly when the noon bell rung-
Hush, hush, dear little Freddy.
And then will come some ha>ty word,
Right out before I'm thinking
They say that ha7ty words from wives
Set sober men to drinking.
Now isn't that great idea,
That men should take to shining,
Because a weary, half sick wife
Cant always smile SO WINNING?
When was young used to earn
My living without trouble,
Had clothes and pocket money, too,
And hours of leisure double.

SATURDAY NIGHTS REPORT
CONGRESSIONAL.

WASHINGTON, June l2-
HOUsK-A message was received from the Pres
lent in which he says il is his Indispensable duty
to call the attention Of Congress to the condition
Of the Treasury.
On the 18th Of May the Secretary Of the Troa>
sury estimated that $50, 600 900 would probably be
required for the first two quarters Of the next fs-
cal year. This does not include such amounts as
may b appropriated -nd ~h0Tu tbs s.iiEA-ts-
there submitted, and the probable deficiency can
not be aseertainod till the appropriation and pri-
vate bills shall formally be passed.
He recommends Congress TO provide the neces-
sary means before the adjournment. The failure
TO DO 30 would be a disgrace which should not
fall on the country. Il will be impossible for him
to ascertain the smo1nt required before Monday
next, il now being half past II o'clock Saturday.
lie repeated the statement in bis annual message.
and says he is deliberately determined to approve
no bill which no has not deliberately examined,
and that be will not depart from this except in
extreme cases lie asks a p0stpOnement for a
brief period for the reason stated, and says he
will not detain Congress an hour beyond the time
necessary to ascertain the amount Of the apprO-
priations.
Mr.. Clancy Jones has said the message was
based on tho supposition that the House will not
finish its action on the appropriation bills till a
late hour tonight
Tho Loan bill has been kept back from the con-
sideration Of the House for tho simple purpose Of
the Executive.
