TERMS OF ADvsRTisi1s
Old Members of the House.

There are but eight members in the Hou,s
now who were members when the celebra.
ted Banks contest for Speaker occsrred, and
who have remaiaed members cottihually
since Morrill, of Vermont: Bufinton cf
Massachusetts,; Covode, Hickman and
Grow, Of Pennsylvania Bingham of Ohio
Colfax of Indiana, and Washburne of lii
nois. The active and influential part taken
by nearly all OF these in the business of the
House Of itself proves the importance Of
continuing well-tried members from dis
trict rather than constantly sending ne v
members here in their stead. Phoips Of
Missouri, who is now the father Of the
House, las the member who has served the
longest time continuously is called has not
taken his seat at this session, having appsr-
emily abandoned Congressional for military
life IA allof- the eight above msnt.oned
members entered Congress together Ia most
singular fact in December, 1854, it is doubt
fol which one will be Phelph's successor As
father of the House" if Phelps is not re-
elected, and if any Of them should be. Mr..
Colfax is said to have declined the father
ship, whether he docs reelection or not,
the family being so large. Mr.. Richardson,
Of Illinois, has come to be REGARDED rs the
leader OF the Democrats, though he talks
Of resigning his scat before long and eoina
into the field as Brigadie-- General. The
place has been offered to him by the Presi-
dent, and he has signifed his purpose of
accepting it by-and-by Mr.. Vallandigham
is the leader Of the white-feather Democratic
about FIVE in number, certainly not over
eight.-lWssh. Cores. N. Y. Post.

In letter from the Hon. Joseph Holt to
Lieut.. Gov. Stanton of Ohio, he uses the
following enthusiastic language respecting
the appointment of the Hon. Edwin N.
Stanton as Secretary Of War, viz:
''The selection Of the Hon. Edwin N.
Stanton as Secretary of War has occasioned
me unalloyed qualification. 1t is m in.
mense stride in the direction Of the sup
preston of the rebellion. SO far as can
gather the popular sentiment, there is every
where rejoicing over the appointment; but
that rejoicing would be far greater did the
people know, as do, the courage, the 10y.
atty. and the genius Of the new Secretary.
as displayed in theintensely tragic struggles
that marked the closing days of the last Ad-
ministration. He is a great man intellectu-
ally and morally-a patriot of the true Ro-
man stamp, who will grapple with treason
as the lion grapples with his prey We
may rest well assured that all that man can
do will, in his present position be done to
deliver our poor, bleeding country from the
bayonets of traitors now lifted against its
bosom"

A Noble Youth.

On Tuesday of last week. Lieut.. Colone
Won Trabrae, of the 32d Indiana, who with
his men wreathed unfading honors round
their brows that day upon the battle field
came off the ground the unfortunate loser OF
$ll00. The money was found couple Of
days afterwards, by a youth of som,
sixteen or seventeen years of age. HI
handed the money over to the captain. No
long afterwards he was summoned to appear
in his captains tent. There we're Lieut.
Col Won Trabre, his own captain, and sew
eral officers who expressed their approba
ton of his conduct. The Lieut.. Col. draw
ing fifty dollars from his pocket, offered il
to the youth, but he very respectfully
though firmly, declined to receive it, and
persisted in his refusal, stating that "he
did not wish to be paid for being honest.
How the brave hearts beat with responsive
thrills, and the light esteem, even affection,
danced in the eyes Of those who listened to
the simple tale, and heard the boys great
hearted response.
But Lieut.. Col Won Trabra would not
consent to receive such favor without some
suitable acknowledgement, and after much
persuasion, the youth consented to take the
money as mark of respect, and a momentr
of the occasion. His name is - Spaf.
ford, 1--WE regret we could not learn his first
name. J and he is member of Captain Cot.
ter's Ohio battery company.-l Louisville

Personal Appearance and Traits OF
Mr. Stanton.

The new Secretary Of War, Mr.. Stanton.
is stout, thick. set man, about five feet
eight inches high, and apparently about 40
years Of age. Hair and beard very black,
the latter worn thick and long. His head
is set very erect on his shoulders, If any
thing, little thrown back His face round
and solid in expression, with blunt features.
His address is prompt and practicsl, his
voice full, distinct and unmusical. He has
never studied the art Of pleasing, and ha,
not the gift of paying compliments in con-
versation. An exhibition of his thought.
lessness in this regard was manifested on
Monday, when the officers of the Army
called to pay their respects to him on his
induction into Office. An officer well sprink.
led with gray, but yet with quite vigorous
step and clear eye, was presented to Mr..
Stanton. The latter recognized him, and
shook him warmly by the hand, saying: 81
remember you well. l saw you many year,
ago plien you Dere in the prime Of life, and
L was a little boy about 50 high And the
new Secretary measured with his hand, a,
he said this, an imaginary lad of not ovel
ten years old. The sturdy old Genera
turned and walked off without word in
reply, evidently not thinking himself so old
as Mr. Stanton sremark would have implied

Napoleon's Coat of Mail.

Just before Napoleon set out for Belgium,
(before the battle of Waterloo) he sent for
the cleverest artisan of his class in Paris,
and demanded of him whether he would
engage to make Goa. of mail to be worn
under the ordinary dress, which should be
absolutely bullet-proof; and that, il 30, he
might name his own price for such work.
