Two Dirty Birds,

The rebuke of Senator Wilson by Thad-
deus Stevens is not more singular for ito
exposure Of the impudence Of the former
than it is for the display Of the same
quality by Stevens. Wilson, in his speech
near Hampton Roads, Virgipia, said that
there would be no impediment to South.
ern representation in Congress if . Union"
men we're elected. His speech disclosed
that be meant by this that Virginia would
be admitted to Congress provided she
would elect Senstors and Representatives
who were members Of the Radical party.
This was the condition of admission
made BY him. Shonld the State refuse
70 elect men of that party, abe would be
denied admission. Wilson did not con-
slider her constitutional claim to repre-
sentalion he did not discuss the va.
lidity of her State government. be did
not debate the natural right Of a people
TO be represented in government they
are taxed to support These questions
were to hi m Of no moment in comparison
with the one relating to the dominnncy
of political party in the State. Said
Wilsoa, in fact, send men tc Congress
who will vote as myself and Sumner and
Drake and Yates direct, and we will give
them seats, but we will not admit men
who will not be subject to our direction.
The pledge to admit Republican Con.
gressmen is an assertion that the State
is entitled to representation, or 1t is an
assertion that men Of the Radical party
will be admitted in defiance Of legal dis.
abilities The Radicals can take either
horn Of the dilemma thus presented by
Mr.. Wilson. There is brassiness about
his Hampton Roads speech, and the
cool manner 10 which be states that
Congress viii be controlled by partisan
ship and not BY law or regard for the
public interests ih dealing with the ques-
ton Of representation, showing a con
science so debauehed that It is insensible
to shame, or so blinded by fanancism
that Il Is incapable Of peroeiying the in
fanny Of the assumption that men,s Po-
litisal rights are TO be determined BY the
fact Of their membership in a political
party. Chicago TINES.

by her unlawful passions as to almost
wholly disregard the laws Of propriety.
She constantly placed herself in his way,
gave him the most tender and lingering
looks, but all to no purpose. Finally,
she secured presentation to the object
of her infatuation. 1t availed nothing,
however, as the young man was governed
by the most correct principles Her ad-
vances failed to meet with the faintest
response. His coolness only seemed to
increase her ardor, and she fairly haunted
him. The husband Of the infatuated lady
at last was made aware of the position of
affairs. He loved the woman deyotedly,
and instead Of treating her as she had
we'll deserved, set about to win his wife
from the singular attachment Separa-
tion was the only remedy that suggested
itself. he could not well leave the city.
The man might be induced to, though
he was we'll situated Overtures were
made, and the result was that the good
looking and honest chap departed for
parts unknown, taking with him, 1t is
said, $1,000 in greenbacks, as recon-
pense ofvacating.

She followed the regiment through the
battles of Antietam, Fredericksburg,

the intervening time went out with young
Hendricks in many skirmishes and raids

the arm, the ball making very bad flesh

trim, and make such repairs as may be
rendered necessary from time to time.
The boat stops three or four hours after
reaching the place, allowing visitors
ample opportunity to visit the tsmb,
ramble round the grounds, and inspect
rooms or other objects Of interest in the
old family mansion. The trip down
consumes enc hour, and sometimes the
boat reaches the wharf with great diff
Guilty, owing to the muddy condition of
the river and the insufficient depth
of water. Although the general
appearance OF the estate is that Of dilap-
idatioH and neglect, it is manifest that
considerable is being dene TO keep 1t in
presentable order. A new roadway from
the boat TO the house has been cut and
graded, the tomb is kept in good repair,
the house, surrounding dwellings, drive
ways and paths looked after, and it is
everywhere apparent that the ladies
Of the country have really rescued the
place from desolation and decay Only
a portion of the dwelling is now inhabited,
and the remainder, including the dining
room, hall, two parlors, and the chamber
where Washington died, are thrown open
to strangers for inspection.
Inside the tomb two swallows have
built their nests, and in the rear repose
the remains Of several members of the
Washington family. The old tomb,
spring, garden and park, remain very
much the same as they were, except that
hundreds of thousands Of scribbling vis-
itors have adorned palings, beams, trees,
and even stones, with their names, in the
vain hope of temporary notice and re-
membrance. The chamber in which
Washington died used to have facsimile
of the bed he occupied, but that is now
removed, and the room is perfectly bare.
The woodwork has suffered somewhat
from the knives of rehc-hunting stran-
gers, and this vandalism will doubtless
be continued unless guards are stationed
here TO prevent it.
