little chain and locket. 1t is hardly
worth sending, but is almost the only

CONGRESSMAN HOOPER OPENS THE WR oNG LET
terra Washington correspondent of the Roches-
ter Democrat, tells the following:
want to tell you joke upon one of the best
men in the House. The Hon. Samuel Hooper, of
Massachusetts, is well known for his ample fortune
cultivation and large benevolence. He is one of
the most punctious and careful gentlemen of the
old school, who honor this generation by their
fastidious politeness. There is another Hooper in
the House. This is the Delegate from Utah, very
quiet, well-bred gentleman. 1t often happens that
papers, letters and kilograms intended for the lat
ter go to the former. This is especially true when
the initials are omitted. Mr.. Hooper is greatly
annoyed by these mistakes. 1t is very annoying
to his nice sense of courtesy to open another mans
missive, even unintentionally.
him, addressed Mr.. Hooper, House of Repre-
sentatiVes." Opening it, he was observed to re
fold it hastily and look about the House with
most perplexing air. jolly Mr.. Jenekes of Rhode
Island, occupied the next seat Turning to him,
Mr.. Hooper asked, in vexed tone, as he uncon-
sciously again unfolded the dispatch, "What shall
do, Jenckes9 Here have been opening another
mans Dispatch The Rhode Islander read, as he
leaned over. the following, bearing date: Salt
Lake City: Mr.. Hooper One of your wives has
Just been delivered of son. Imagine the amuse-
ment the story creates as it goes circulating over
the House, The Mormon must be doubly vexed at
the mistake, and the unmistakable fastening upon
him of that which is crime at statute law. In
the meanwhile, our courteous friend from Massa-
chusetts receives many sly joke about I" one of
his wives"
