As the time Tor the FcnInn Congress ap-
yToaches, both sections Of the brotherhood
are fast arraying themselves, either on the
side Of Roberts or 0'Mahoney. Though it Is
more than probable that the Congress called
by the o O'Maboncy will not lie recognized By
the Western and Southern members Of tue
Brotherhood, {Ncw Jersey having already to.
ken her stand by the Scnate,) Still the Con
gress is looked forward 10 with great interest
by both factions, with hope that the final
test viii prove the relative strength Of the ri.
EAl chiefs. There has been already too much

consequently the more sober and moderate

the following change was made. Instead
Of the old plan of debate with selected

resolved to devote those evenings no. oc-

to poor Charley from the time he left his
bed, and we came to understand one an
other as I think few fathers and sons
ever do. The poor boy never blamed me
for blighting SO much happiness for him,
and I sometimes tried to think his life
has been made happier on the whole than
it would have been had I not been tau ght

A Good Joke ON Sherman.

While marching through Georgia, Gen.
Sherman travelled with the left wing, un-
der General Slocum. Aftersa long and
wearisome march he one day yFcrossed over
to the right wing, under General How
ard While in General Howard's tent,
which had just been pitched, the Medical
Director came in, we'll acquainted with
the habits and customs of both. General
Sherman sometimes takes '.glass, while
General Howard is. strongly opposed to
the indulgence. Knowing this, the med
ical gentlemen, wishing to serve his chief
without offense to Howard, said:
"Gen. Sherman, you look weary and i'll.
If you will come over to my tent / will
give you Seidlitz Powder, which have
no doubt will do you good" i
HThank you,''a readily responded
|Tecumseh, 81 think I will. y ~ eF
The man of physic departed, and Gen.
Howard, who took everything literally,
ran to his valise and got a powder, which
he mixed and handed to Sherman.
"There is no need to go away for one,
if that is what you want, J" said he, and
Sherman, inwardly ehagrined, but highly
amused, drank the cup manfully, to the
mirth of several bystanders, who COM
pretended the whole magnitude of the
Joke at glance. e8aTss
