THE WHEELING L


Mark Twain says that while stopping
recently Mt the Sherman House In Chi
caRo, he was placed in "A room so high
up that water boiled there at 1GS deg;
and although 1t was destitute OF many
OF the luxuries of n comfortable bed
room, he was not sorry he was sent
there, as II enabled him to overhear the
following story Told by one friend 10
another in an adjoining apartment
"No, she wouldn't marry me. ~ GU
was misinformed. It was broken of,
and in the saddest way. l was not in
the least to blame, upon my word and
honor, though neither the girl nor her
father the deacon ever believed me or
ever fJrGRve me. 1t was during the big
election canvass when Lincoln ran the
hrst time. TwO.thirds OF the deacon's
honest soul were in religion and the
other third was in poliIics-Lincoln
man. l never was a scoffer at religion
in my life, but he half believed 1
was. Well, there was to be a po-
litical pow-wow in the village church
where he lived, on Il Thursday night,
and he was to preside. never thought
anything about the matter, but Will
lam hailed me one afternoon, offered
me seat In his buggy, and away we
started. It was acknowledgement the
almanac!-but we never thought OF II.
Going into town, some devlish instinct
put il into my head that it would help
nv case along IL marched into church
with rail on my shoulder, seeing that
the deacon and the girl would both be
there, So got rail. and we came in,
10 town shouting and making a grand
TODD generally. As we went by Inc
church windows l caught gltmps OIL
her bonnet and plenty other bonnets,
and l was happy. lshUuldered my
rail and marched in. The houseful of
men and women were all quiet, and the
old deacon was standing up in the
alter saying something. SPLENDID
went booming up the aisle with my
rail, swinging my hat and whooping
"HGo-rny for Old Abe! HOo-ruy for
the Illinois rai!-splitter !"
"But never yelp out of that andi-
cnCe. quit, right in my tracks. The
| deacon sRid: sir. we were engaged In
addressing the Throne of Grace. This
unseemly exhibition is ill'iitted 10 the
solemnities of IL prayer-meetinRP

there WAS IL board fence and practiced
climbing backwards and forwards
through knot hole for as mach ns an
hour. But my goose was cooked, you
know. II was nll up between me nnd

of EscnrcscntntIvCs.


y Washington correspondent OF the
Baltimore SIN writes:
The question OF the speakership for
the FoTty-tirst Congress has been ngi-
tated, though very quietly, ana the
merits OF the different candidates have
been canvnssed. 1t il well settled that
no candidate from the West will be
urged except, perhaps AS compliment
10 some members who his colleagues
may delight to honor. The most prom
inent uspirants seem to be Messrs.
BlaEne, Dawes and banks, but some
new men may carry off the hOnOTs be-
fore the election. The fact that Alessrs.
Dawes and Banks are both named,
splits mp the Massachusetts delegation.
BAnks's foreign policy as developed IN
the Alaska debate has made him I'M
popular with the nnti-acquisitton Of
territory members, who arc very res
peCtabIs i'll point OF numbers.
Mr.. Blaine was probably the stTon-
gest man at the opening OF the session,
but ne hiss displayed too mice seeming
anxiety for the position. lie does not
disguise the fact that he wants II, anu
will be SADLY disappointed IL the gavel
does not pnss into his hands. Ills
speech Rt the opening OF the sessiOn-
(the only one thus far mnde in conf
nittee of the whole)-was clear bid
for the position. This was we'll enough,
but he has disgusted some members by
his electioueering schemes, anu bis
efforts to obtain promises OF votes. The
fate OF the proposed repeal OF the law
recurring Congress to convene on the
| An OF March will depend greatly upon
the position OF the question OF the
| speakeIship between now and the An
| of March.

A PHoSPHoRESCENT TIDE E-RIP.-ThOSe who
have never gone down to the sea in ships know
nothing of its many wonders and beauties.-
The waters in the daylight are bright and blue,
and glorious to look upon, but it is at night
that the sea puts on it's splendOr, and fills the
eve and soul of the watchers with feelings OF
awe and admiration. The waters of the Gulf
of Mexico arc wonderfully rhosphorescent; so
highly charged at times that it seems as if the
crests of the waves were fairly afame. Yes
sells, when plowing through the gulf at such
tine, dash from their brows luminous spray
and leave in their water brilliant trails OF silver
and gold.
Running down the coast of Florida one some-
times sees what we are pleased to denomlnate
a "phosphorescent tide rip, or meeting OF the
tides or currents-a sight as compared with
which all the dazzling effects of the cleverest
artificial latter day transformation scenes are as
nothing. Imagine, if you can, steamer dash:
ing along at ten knots, under starht sky and
through phosphOrescent waters, in which por-
poses that sport on either side, are turned ln-
to huge gold fish, with trailing tails like comets
" Breakers ahead, sings out the man on the
lookout. ''Not so, shouts the officer of the
deck, "it's only a tide-rip." And there, stretch
ing along for miles, is line OF light, which
grows brighter and brighter as the ship comes
up to it. In moment or two 1t Is reached
and the vessel plunges into perfect sea OF
emcrads, amethystS, rubies and diamonds,
which fairly dazzlrs the eyes to look upon. 1t
is only moment or two, however, that this
fairy scene lasts-the ship is soon out OF it,
and, looking astern the brilliant tide-rip, when
miles away, seems like a rlvuIet OF silver and
gold meandering through the trsckless deep
