The FeeIinr thnt Animntes Them.

The Feeling that Animates Them
At the close of a recent discussion in
the House of Representatives. which
was participated in by Thad Stevens
we find the following:
Mr.. Thayer reminded Mr.. Stevens
that the third section did not affect the
eligibility of those persons So Repre-
sentatives, but merely excluded them
from voting, and he asked him if
he thought he could build a peniten-
tiary big enough to hold 100000 OF
people
"Mr. Stevens-'Yes sir: that peniten-
tiary which is guarded by bsyonets,
down below; and if they undertake TO
come back, we will shoot them The
penitentiary Of hell is the penitentiary
that they deserve to have till then"
This is the disgraceful language that
is used-this is the shameful tone that
is assumed-by the so-called Radical
leader in the American Congress. Is it
any wonder that our country is rapidly
going to perdition THAT the Govern
ment has fallen into absolute contempt
when such men are our chief rulers5
The brutality and cruelty of the policy
they advocate is fttingly expressed by
leaders Like Stevens, whose loosen ss
and intemperance of speech is the nat
ursl concomitant of it.
Can the depths of natural degenera-
cy be measured when we compare these
men with their predecessors of years
ago in the Government ?--when states
manship was displayed in Congress, and
when eloquence, dignity and courtesy
were as universal as beastly folly and
criminal degradation are now in its
halls Gin. Enq.

What TO Saw in Order to Look.

An exchange makes the following
important suggestions to those ladies
to whom it may concern: When a lady
would compose her mouth to bland
and serene character, she should, Just
before entering the room, say bosom,
and keep the expression into which
the mouth subsidies until the desired
effect upon the company is evident. If,
on the other hand, she wishes to as,
sumo a distinguished and somewhat
noble bearing, not suggestive of sweet
ness, she should say brush, the result
of which is infallible If she would
make her mouth look small she must
say flip, but if the mouth be already too
small and nees enlarging she must say
cabbage If she wishes to look mourn
ful she must say kerChunk If resign
ed, she must forcibIy calculate scat.
Ladies when having their photographs
taken may observe these rules with
some advantage.
