plain spoken man :" at least the Chicago
Tribune und Journal must think 50 after hav.

i" The great Sanitary Fair lately held in
Chicago, was the most stupendous swindlO
yet conceived. Less than three thousand
dollars were left for soldiers after the loyfl
gents had stolen their fiIl, and parties arc
quarrelng over this. The Abolition papers,
the Tribune and Journal, each received absut
five thousand dollars for their inhueHesl And
so all the contributions to the poor soldiers
were stolen from them by these loyal man.

THE CEILDREN's PRAYER.
{ OF SUCH Is THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN"

THE CEILDRENs PRAYER.
"or SUCH Is THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN"
THREE white-clad forms beside bed,
With little hands upheld,
When all their tolls are laid away,
And the noise of day is quelled;
And mother hears them each repeat,
With voices earnest, low and sweet,
The simple prayer,
She teaches there:
"Gentle Jesus, meak and mild,
Look upon little child"
Fond kisses and good nights" from all,
As rosy cheeks are laid
On snowy pillows, then, calm sleep
Till dreamy night shall fade,
Good angels bend above each face
That silent lies in smiling grace!
Through toll and care
Our lives must share:
"Gentle Jesus, meek and mild,
Look upon little child"
o, loved and sinless little ones,
When years have led you on,
And she who fingers o'er you now
To her reward has gone;
When the toys of life are laid away,
And evening comes, still may you pay,
With faithful hearts,
As life departs:
"Gentle Jesus, meek and mild,
Look upon a little childw

| Committee on Reconstruction, reported
a Joint resolution that, in order To close
| agitation on the question which seems
! likely to distrust the action of the Gov
eminent, as well as to quiet the uncer-
tainty which exists in the minds of the
people of the eleven states which have
been declared to be in insurrecti0n, no
Senator or Representative shall be adj
mitted into either branch of Congress
from either of the said states. unless
| Congress shall have declared such states
entitled to such Representatives,.
Mr.. Grider obtained leave to read a
| minority report from the Reconstruction
Committee, concluding with aresolutlon
declaring that the state of Tennessee is
entitled to representation, and that her
| REPRESENTATIVES, be hereby admitted on
qualifying according to law.
Mr.. Stevens said that there was an
earnest disposition until yesterday to
inquire into the condition of Tennessee,
and to see whether they could not admit
the state to representation; but since
Yesterday there has been such u state of
things which has induced the committee
to consider 1t wholly out of their power
to proceed further without surrendering
a great principle, and without surren-
defing the rights Of this body, to the
usurper of another power. Hedemanded
the previous question. ~
\ Mr.. Rogers, amid calls of order de-
clared against the passage of this resolu-
tiun under the gag rule.
Mr.. Stevens objected TO Mr.. Order
making the report. Hesaid he could not
consent, for there was an earthquake
around as, and he trembled and dare
not yield! 81, 4... =5=.=e.-
There was much excitement and calls
to order during the proceedings.
Mr.. Stevens having moved the pre-
vious question on the resolution, Messrs.
Eldridge, johnson, Chandler and others
sought to stave off a vote by moving to
adjourn, etc. The questions were decided
in the negative by yeas and nays.
Mr.. Eldridgc said he and his friends
would stop. these dilatory motions if Mr..
Stevens would withdraw the demand
for the previous question, SO that the
resolution might be debated.
Mr.. Stevens said he sat here for forty
eight hours in 1861, when the rebels
went out, and he could stand it for
thirty hours longer. -.se... #,.5.rt H..

BUY A BROOM!

Mr.. Post-Won't somebody sing the
refrain of the old song BUY Broom!'
in the neighborhood of our Post Office,
so loud and long, that the attention of
"the authorities" may be called to the
deplorable state of that building. 1t is
horribly dirty! One might endure to
walk over the marbled floor if it were
only encrusted with picturesque ira
ditional dinginess, but in its present
state, IL is simply disgusting. 1t is
doubtful whether broom, or mop, has
visited it since some dim age before the
war; From appearances we should i'm
agine it had never been swept or secured
since the hour of its completion.
A lady, forced to enter the unclean
precincts of our Post Office, must care
fully festoon her garments into the
loops, which have SO terribly provoked
the wrath of the Richmond Examiner,
this winter, if she wOuld~not have them
stained and soiled by the tobacco juice,
which lies in pools from the door to the
letter box. Tobacco, in the form of a
cigar, gives an exceedingly home-like
appearance to a family room In the
form of expectorated juice, flooding
floor, whether of steamboat, railroad
car, or Post Office, is an intolerable
nuisance. Masculine feet may wade
through it and come out of it none the
worse, but for feminines, it is quick
set hedge, which the boldest would hest
tate to break though second time. J,
Mr.. Editor, why can you not, with
your usual gallantry, advocate a Ladies'
Post Office? If you wish to earn the
plaudits of the other sex, and be kindly
remembered by them lever after" pray
agitate this matter, Mr.. Post.

TO THE MEMORY OF WASHINGTON

There is one name, at least, that is en-
shrined in the heart of every American
whether he were born in Massachusetts
or Virginia.
One talisman, in whose virtues all have
faith. .5rd
GEORGE WASHINGTON is our common
glory, and his name is a spell to disarm
all the bitterness of partisan strife.
This is the anniversary of his birth!
To-day, one day in the three hundred
and sixty -iive, is sacred to good fellow
ship and common patriotism.
We all revere his memory. l
The civilized world bows before his
mighty name this day, and pays a
tribute to his lofty character and noble
devotion to liberty. g -rT .u
To-day let US cast our thoughts back
ward, and contemplate calmly the past.
Let US endeavor to discover how far
we have drifted from the course he
marked out forus.
Let us register new resolve to be
more heedful in future of his parting
advice. Llft .eH-.t
Let us remember the mutual sacrifices
Of individual and sectional interests he
counselled lis to make for the common
good. 5n- ifi
Let us try in future to so live that our
actions shall meet with the smile of his
approval from the lofty seat he glorifies
in the home of the blest. fl.1
Let us bury in his tomb the bitter ami
mosities of the past, and assembling
around his grave once more, ask to be in
spired with his noble and universal
spirit Of American charity, to guide US
in the future.
Il And, above all, let us strive to keep
his memory and his noble example in
our minds, and transmit them intact TO
futurity. 60, tJ'.

would bring sererdt millions of govern
ment money and patronage into the
South, without altering the condition of
affairs to any extent; but we do care
about the division between the Presi-
dent and the Congress. Both working
tremendously together might have been
the means of comforting incalculable
benefits upon the country; but divided
in sympathy and upon all questions of
public policy, we see nothing but mis-
fortune before us-a divided country
for years, perhaps, with its fortunes
swayed by whatever rules the passions of
the opposing powers may in turn dc
tate. II is a sad state of affairs. truly
almost as sad as that first gun fired at
Sumter-is this veto of the President,
at this juncture. ~
