At the session Of Circuit Court in some country
town in Mississippi, the lawyers usually stopped
at a house kept by Il bnXom widow lady, Of high
sense Of propricty and great dignity Of drport-
ment. She always presided at the head Of the
table, and the seat on her right was always occu.
pied by the most staid md elderly member Of the
Bar. BY common consent Col. b. very modest
aud pious counsellor was selected. The Col had
the habit Of winI,ing ncrsseutly and nyoluuta-
rily, which sometimes left an unlavorablc i'm
preston Of the old mans seriousness aud SINGER
ity. The Col took his seat, and his bland and
amiabe expression and diguilicd department Gre
ated quite a favorable impression upon her lady
ship. The soup was over, and the hostess began
to ply the Col. with yarious tempting dishes, all
of which he accepted or declined with pleasant
smile, and with his inyaraGle wink At last it
was perceptible to the company that the hostess
was cyciug her distinguished guest rather iuquir
ngly and Significantly these gances were al.
ways met by the Col. with his usual smile aad
wink Finally to the great horror Of the Bar
and utter humiliation of the worthy Colonel, the
hostess slapped the table Indignantly ~ith bcr

and lierccly upon the object Of her wrath, cried

SrIKIT OF THE MORNING PRESS.

The Union, speaking of The Agency Sys-

1t is not credible that any of the high officers
Of Government would deliberately and inten-
tionally lend himself to fraud, and that 1t Is
still less credible that the disappointed soiic-
itors Of Government jobs and contract brokers,
who hang about the antc-rooms Of the depart

eeeded 10 monopolizing all the honesty in
Washington, leaving the heads of the Govern

any one of the heads Of departments who does
not feel relieved when an investigation is or
dered by Congress into any transaction which
is made the subject Of street-corner, bar-room,
and newspaper impeachment. 1t says that
these Congressional investigations originate in
the matchmaking system which is coming 50
much in vogue in our day, and which has
