Are Negroes Eligible for Congress
Under the famous bred Scott decision the
Supreme Court Of the United States decided
that negroes were not citizens within the
meaning of the Constitution. Whatever the
popular sentiment may be in regard to that
decision, twas never reversed, and remained
the law of the land, at least until the proc
lamation of emanaip patton issued by Presi-
dent Lincoln in December, 1862 IF that
proclamation made negroes citizens they at
tanned their citizenship at that time The
Constitution of the United States provides
that no one shall be eligible to the United
States Senate until he shall have been a
citizen nine years These facts may dash

Power OF HUMBUG.-An individual owned
small tavern near the field Of Waterloo, the
scene Of the last great action of Napoleon, and
was frequently questioned as to whether he did
not possess any relics of the battle and he in
variably and honestly answered in the negative.
He was very poor, and one day, he was la
menting to a neighbOr, not only Of his poverty,
but to the annoyance to which travellers sub
jected him, when his friend cut him short with:
Well, make one help the other Make
some relics. .
" But what can 1 do?" inquired the poor
man.
"Tell them that Napoleon or Wellington
entered your shop during the battle and sat
down on that chair.
Not long after an English tourist entered the
tavern, and inquiring for relics was told tho
chair story. The next customer was told that
Wellington had taken drink and the Yelling
ton tumbler was sold. The third gazed with
breathless wonder on the nail on which Bona
part hung his hat. The fourth purchased tho
door posts between which he entered, and the
fifth became the happy pOssessor of the floor
upon which Napoleon had trodden.
At last advices, the fortunate tavern keeper
had not roof to cover his head, and was Sit
ting on a bag of gold in the centre of deep
pit, formed by selling the earth upon which
the house had stood.

The Doctor leans hack on his old settee,
putting rank cigar,
And he grns grin, so pleased is he,
To puff the smoke afar;
And he snuffs and snuffs, and puGs and puffs
Like a man with bad catarrh!
His boon companion beside him sits,
And stale old qud he chaws;
And plug of weed. which he bites into bits,
He holds in his dirty paws;
And he sits and sits, and squirts aud spits
The shine from his juicy jaws.
And happy are they as pair Of twins,
Aspiring and slobbering there,
With dirty splttoon between their shins,
Which they hold with the greatest care,
Forgetting their debts md forgetting their sins,
And fnrgetting the need of prayer.
