the dispatches, which was agreed to, sets
forth, substantially, that Alexander Long
a Representative from the Second Dist
riot of Ohio, by his open declaration in
the National Capitol, and by publication
in New York, has shown himself to be
in favor of the recognition of the So
called Confederacy, now trying to es-
tablish itself on the ruins of the coun-
try; that he has given aid and comfort
to the enemy in their destructive practi-
ces and to the traitors against the Gov
eminent within our borders, by assuran-
ces of their success, and affirmations Of
the justice Of their cause, and that such
conduct is incompatible with his duty
as a member of this body.

l About the time the temperance
reformation began, a well disposed farm
er told one of his men that he thought
of trying to do his work without whis-
ky, and asked him how much more he
should have to give him to do without
it, The man told him he might give
him what he pleased. "Well, " said the
farmer, II will give you a sheep if you
will do without it." The elder son then
asked him if he would give him sheep
if he would do without whisky. eyes, .
said the farmer, 'you shall have sheep
if you will do without" The youngest
son then asked if he would do the same
by him. "Yes, Sandy was the reply
you shall have a sheep, too, if You will
do without whisky" Presently Sandy
asked, Father, hadn't You better take a
sheep too 81 This was home question;
the father had hardly thought that he
could do without the good creature. .
but this direct appeal was not to be dis
regarded. The result was, that the de-
mon was at once banished from. the
premises.

8Q A WoaAN's TRIcK.--The last phase of
the confidence game was developed on
Friday by a Cincinnati, female. The wo-
man having an earthen vessel in her
apron, entered grocery store and
bought a pound of coffee. Removing
the lid she dropped the coffee in said
vessel, replaced the lid, and was about
to pay for it, when she discovered she
had forgotten to bring her money. Not
to have her honesty suspected, she said
she would leave her purchase till she
went home and got her money, and ac-
cordingly set her crockery on the coun-
ter, where it remained until the grocer
thought something must be wrong, and
on removing the lid, he found there was
no bottom to the vessel, and of course
the woman had gone Off with the coffee
in her apron. 3a

A WIDow,s MITE.-The Spirit of the
Fair, the daily journal published by the
newspaper committee of the Metropoli-
tan Fair, gives the following interesting
history of a one dollar greenback in the
Curiosity Shop"
u A pastor in an inland town had called
upon his congregation to contribute to
the Sanitary Commission, and had met
liberal response. The next day. a wo-
man who depends upon her daily work
for her own support and that of her
children, brought him dollar bill to be
added as her mite to the collection
Her pastor declined to take it, telling
her she ought not to give so much: but
the woman insisted adding, We've had
it in the house many weeks; we cannot
spend it,"
Seeing that the bill was much torn,
and supposing that she had found diff
Guilty in passing if, her pastor said, cob
j Twill give you a good bill for it.

Sans pocket when ne was wounded
He's dead now, and we have his torn
pocket book and mother said (the mo-
Their is a widow, and he was her only
son. I'VE will give that dollar to the
Sanitary Commission; we cannot spend
it. ~
The pastor redeemed the bill for 81,
and now sends it to be disposed of at the
Fair. Fifty dollars have already been
offered for it, but we feel sure that this
gift OF two widows, of ball-marked
relic OF their son and brother, will yield
to the soldiers treasury an hundred
fold. No necessity could have compelled
them to spend it, but the cause conse-
Grated it as a holy baptism for the dead.
Eight million dollars were sent TO
the army of the Potomac on Wednesday,
in charge of sixteen paymasters.
