Henry ]. Raymond.

When, at the commencement of the
present session of Congress, it was the
fashion with some of our Conservative
friends to laud this little demagogue as a
becoming pattern of Republican modera-
ton, your correspondent, from thorough
knowledge of the mans insincerity, pre-
dicted that before the session was over
his eulogists would have occasion to re-
gret their precipitancy. That prediction
is more than verified in his course on the
plan of the Central Directory to keep out
the South till after the next Presidential
election. Raymond spoke against it, and
then went and voted for it. His chop
ping and changing disgust even the Rad
icals of his own district while honest
men of every political faith heartily des-
pise him 1t is shame that New York
should be so misrepresented, but in the
next Congress the grievance will be rec
titled Master Raymond will have per
mission to stay at home and edit the
Times. He never would have got into
the rump Congress even, but for the
foolish division in the Democratic ranks
Just such division as enabled that
other Radical jumpngjack, VIM. E.
Dodge, in the eighth district, to elbow
out Hon. James Brooks. The probabili-
ties ut present are that there will be no
such division next fall, and that therefore
the Jacobins who bought and stole their
way into the capitol as if from this city,
will no more be heard of after the rump
Congress has executed its mission

Secretary chsss's n-in.Law.

The Washington correspondent of the
Commercial thus speaks of the sOn-in-
law of Secretary Chase He says
That overruling Providence, without
whose volition even sparrow cannot
fall to the ground, may have had bene-
ficent and wise purpose in view in send
ing the Hon. VIM. Sprague [" Little
Spraguey" they call him in the report
er's gallery, and when he rises to crate
they say he speaks his little piecey
to the Senate IL is more easy, however,
to account by natural causes for the fall
of sparrow than for the election of
Sprague. A brick or a shot gun viii
produce the former result, by the opera
ton of the laws Of grayitation. and
Providence does not so much will the
decease Of the poor bird as to refuse to
suspend the laws of nature in response
to which the feathered tribe yield to
the pressure Of a brick or the force of a
buckshot In the case OF Sprague's cleo
ton, the object 80 far must be matter
of faith, which is, we are reliably in
formed, the evidence of things not seen
and the substance of things hoped for.
Mr.. Sprague is the youngest man in
the Senate, and the smallest in physical,
as well as mental, stature There is a
boyish look and air about him, and he is,
withal, handsome man, the cynosure of
female eyes, and the focus of innumer-
able opera-glasses He looks good-hu-
moredIy at the world through a pair of
glasses which give him the appearance
of college student, or an inspiring
curate in the penultimate stage of his
divinity course. He seldom addresses
the Senate, and then invariably from
carefully prepared manuscript, and not
unfrequently in such stumbling and
hesitating manner as to cause his audit
ors to wonder that he is not more familiar
with Chief Justice Ghases handwriting,
which, it is proper to remark, is very
hard to decipher
This distinguished Senator from Rhode
Island made an announcement the other
day that may be said to have put the po-
litical world on tip-toe of expectancy.
He proclaimed himself in favor Of man
hood suffrage" in the District of Colum-
bia, and said that when bill having
this purpose in view was introduced. he
would demonstrate that, by comforting
the right of suffrage upon the colOred
population here, Congress would go far
towards solving the problem of recon-
struction

Gen. Joseph E. Johnston.

The Selma Messenger, Of the 18th,
says the stockholders of the Alabama
and Tennessee Rivers Railroad yester-
day unanimously elected Gen. Joseph E.
Johnston President Of that road. There
were others who had claims, and strong
ones, to the presidency of the road, but
they were promptly and generously
waived in favor Of this distinguished
soldier and gentleman. There is no
doubt whatever Of Gen. Johnston's ac-
ceptanee Of the position thus hatteringly
rendered him, and We may safely con-
gratnlete this Company upon having en-
listed his eminent talents in the prosecu-
tion OF their great enterprise Of connect

A Notable Pedestrian.

A St Lonis paper, referring to the ex-
pected arrival Of Mr.. F Schaefer, a
noted German foot-traveler, in that city,
from La Crosse, Wisconsin, says:
He is now about thirty years Of age,
considerably deformed, but Of an enthu-
siastic mind He was born in Carlshafen,
in Kurhessen, and at the age of nine
years became so interested in the study
of history that he determined to see the
world himself. He was poor, but this
did not deter him His first trip on
foot and alone, with no money, and no
baggage save what his knapsack con-
tanned, was in lsi7, when he was very
young, and continued through the Ger
man States and Russia. Afterwards he
continued on through Europe to Great
Britain, and thence into and through
that country. Not long since he came
to the United States, landing in Boston,
travelling on foot to Washington, and
from that city west. He goes from ST.
Louis across the country, through Utah,
to California. Schaefer is feeling well,
and enjoys his migratory habits exceed
ingly well His ambition seems to be
to travel over every part of the globe
on foot, and be bids fair to accomplish
that object now His expenses are very
small, and these are made up to him
by friends whom he makes wherever be
goes His portfolio contains. among
other things, the autographs of crowned
heads, distinguished literary, scientific
and political men, wherever he has
been, and is curiosity, with sketches
and testimonials, which nave been given
him by all be has met The energy of
the man entities him to success in his

A snaniman Church Radical.

In his address to the General Assem-
bly, %. s., Thursday afternoon, the
Moderator, DR.. Stanton, referring to diff
ferences of opinion in that body, upon
vital questions" used these words:
That rebellious defiance of lawful
authority which has racked the nation
to its foundations during four years of
war, still RACES within the precincts
where Il was born, the Church Of God. "
In what terms shall such an assertion,
so utterly void Of even the semblance Of
truth, be ftly characterized How
poorly does any professional zeal for the
truths of the Bible tally with such
recklessness of statement as is here ex-
hibited l-St Louis Republican.

subduing a Prisoner by chloroform.

The Cleveland Herald gives an nc
count of the execution of murderer
named Cooper, at Ravenna, Ohio, on the
27th of April. He had made several
desperate attempts to escape, and when
the sheriff came to shackle him, he swore
that no one should enter the cell, and
that the irons should never go on MIN
while he was alive. He was perfectly
wild with excitement His eyes glis-
tened through the barred door like those
of an infuriated tiger He raved and
tore around his cell like a madman,
cursing and swearing in the most bias
phemous manner The sheriff found
that it would he impossible to coniine
him without considerable assistance. He,
therefore, called in several prominent
men of the town to consult as 10 the best
course to he pursued Among them was
DR.. ID. B. Jennings, who proposed that
chloroform should be used to suhdue the
enraged murderer
1t Was at first objected to by some,
but Drs. Keyes and Graham being con-
suited, it was decided that that was the
only means of accomplishing the de-
sired end Two large syringes were pro-
cured that would each hold about one
pound ofthe subtle fluid They were filled
with the chloroform, bed quilt procured
TO place over the grating of the cell
door, and, after everything was prepared,
the contents of one of the syringes we're
discharged in the cell, and luckily struck
Cooper full in the face He was some
what taken aback by this novel proce-
dure, and told them to come on with
their doctors stuff. but they would
never subdue him in that manner A
second discharge of the chloroform
lsdcE syringe, however, did the work.
In less than four minutes from the
time of the first injection of the chloro-
form, the raging man was quiet, ano

him out into the corridor of the Jail,
where the manacles were placed on his
legs and arms. In about fifteen minutes
he revived, hut the deed was done and
he was unable 10 do further harm As
soon rs he. became able to speak and

Queen Victoria and the Fsnians.

A London correspondent of the New
York Tribune writes
An Interesting anecdote of the Queen s
humanity and attachment to her army
has just come TO my knowledge You
may have noticed IN the news from Ire
land the trial of Sergeant Darragh for
Fenianism, Of which he was found guilty
and sentenced to be shot. When the
warrant was brought to the Queen for
signature, her consent was urgently soli-
cited on the ground of the necessity of
making an example, and at length OBJ
tanned, though she burst into tears in the
act of according it. Within an hour af-
terwards she sent for the warrant again
and tore it to pieces and God bless her
for it The act will effect more towards
extirpating Fenianism in the ranks-ifit
exists there-than all the constables,
spies, lawyers, judges and hangmen with
in the fair seas of Britain could do.
