i. I. BARNUM.-We scarcely open an
exchange paper without seeing i. an
nounced, that Barnum 50 the great show
man." has recently been elected member
Of Congress from Connecticut This is
a mistake. 1t is true however, that he has
been elected q member of the legislature
of that State from Bridgeport, the place of
his residence. The next Congress will
contain political charlatans enough, as
we'll as several learned Thebans, of the
Sir Boyle Roach school of statesmen. who
will give dignity and weight 10 its pro
ccedings, without pressing into the service,
the ''prince Of humbugs" himself In
tins connection we may state, that Bar
mum was the first candidate for office in
the United States, in the spring Of 1851,
who was defeated by a Know Nothing.
He was a candidate for the same office.
to which he has jast been elected. His
election was conceded, in as much as he
had or thought he had no opponent. But
when the votes were counted out, Barnum
was nowhere.

the hands of outlaws. thieves, murderrrs and
traitors. H."-Cracford Forum.
They Union soldiers] are pack Of hired
scoundrels, who have never been aught but
nuisance to the country. ."-Askiand Unton.
They Union soldiers] come back aud find

their absence--their families probably scatter

charitable agent of an Aid Society, ,oho has
found that there are more toays haa one of ad-

fail Of the truth, because they are not as sad 81
the reality, nor as vivid. ."-Cin. Enquirer
