Unftafterfng Picture OF the House of
Commons.


If Demosthenes were alive in our day. and were
afflicted with his early difficulties of elocuton he
might find severer school of practice than on the
margin of the roaring deep. 70 attempt TO address
the House of Commons in favor of reform and in
front Of sea Of bowling Tories, would be the, best
patience of student of eloquence. 1t must be
owned that what the Tories lack in argument they
make up in noise. The beastly believing of which
O'connen complained was as uproarious and vehe-
ment on Monday night at any time during the
passages of arms which took place between the Irish
orator and the statesman whom he designed Scorpion
Stanley. Every Conservative seemed inclined to do
the lions part according to Bottoms definition of it
nothing but roaring. The Tories howled down
their opponents when they could not reply to them.
running fire of the rudest the coarsest
contradictions strove perpetuay to disturb the
posure Of every speaker who took the Ministerial
view OF the question. 1t is somewhat difficult to
understand why the rules which regulate the inter.
course OF gentlemen everywhere should besuspended
in favor of a gathering of Tories. simply because
they are seated under the roof of what is commonly
called tho greatest legislative assembly in the world
Certainly that workingmans meeting would be re-
garded as grossly and nexcusably exceptional indeed
which tolerated onetenth of the registering vulgar
and uproarious conduct in which Toryism rioted and
reveled during the Parliamentary debate Of Monday
evening.

Tho c,o,,r. of 1870 in the West.

An Indiana paper has the following "reminiscences
of one effect of the cholera panic of 1S49, by
a gentleman boarding at the time in the principal
hotel of Lafayette city. in that State:
The use of fresh meat and vegetables was con-
sidere by the majority of people to be suicidal and
equivalent to inviting attack of the dread disease,
and those who had the temerity to indulge in such
luxurieS found it almost impossible to them
After living upon salt fish, bacon and bread for some
time. some of the boarders concluded that they
wanted some fresh meat. 1t could not be procured
in the city, so committee was appointed to go into
the country, purchase sheep or two, and have them
killed. dressed and served up at the hotel table.
After spending whole day in the country the
committee were unable to accomplish their errand.
On approaching the residence of gentleman living
on the Wea they were met at the gate and ordered
out of the neighborhood. He would not sell give
them sheep on any terms, nor allow them to come
inside his house. He said the first man who set his
foot inside his dooryard he would certainly shoot.
Such was the fear of contagion entertained by the
country people that the gentlemen were compelled
to return without fresh meat, though there were
hundreds of sheep and calves in the country Another
committee was more successful the next night and
fresh meat was procured by strategy.
Everybody ate freely of it. and no deaths fol-
lowed

He claims that the ,wo hundred bonds were his in
payment Of services rendered in disposing of one

foreign market and that the failure of the foreign
negotiations was by reason of the companys unwar-
wantable interference.
The Company claim that Wheeler's ownership in
the two hundred bonds contingent upon his sue

last bonds remained unsod in the European market
for some time, and were finally returned to New
York and that therefore he is not entitled the pos

Middle States. 3l;79; in the Western States, 36sl
