CONGRESS AND THE CHARLESTON
CATHOLIC ORPHAN ASYLUM.

Among tho measures on which the United
States Senate took unfavorable action on We'd
nesday evening, was the amendment to the
Civil Appropriation bill reported by the Com
mittee on Appropriations to give $40 900 to the
Charleston Sisters of Mercy for their services
toward the Union prisoners during the war;
Mr.. Drake opposed the appropriation, and
Mr.. Sawyer adyoca ed it. Mr.. Howard alluded
to the circular letter Of the Pope during the
proof of the desire OF the Pope for the success
of the Southern Confederacy. That letter had
great influence on tho members Of that faith,
and but few If any Of them enlisted into our
armies. It was not too much to say that the
whole influence OF the Roman Catholic bishops
and priests was arrayed on the side OF the
rebels, for which reason we had to offer i'm
mense bounties to fill up our armies. These
Sisters Of Mercy belonged to the same sect,
and he did not think their case at all g merito-
rious one.
Catholic church from the imputation Of disloy-
atty, and said it was not true that few Of
them had gone intosthe army-he had OBJ.
served in Indiana that there were large num-
bers of enlistments among members of that
church.
Mr.. Frelinghuysen said this was either a
just claim or it was a gratuity, and to come
from Charleston, of all places in the world.
Christian Ommissions and all the chapains
would have to be paid too. [Applause and
Kisses in the gallerics.]
MIR. Pomeroy could not look at this thing in
any narrow or sectarian spirit. So far as his
experience went, the Pope's letter had no in
fuence on our adopted citizens of the Catholic
faith; they had enlisted very freely in his
State, Kansas.
Mr.. Sherman read from letter OF Governor
Scott, of South Carolina, in favor Of the appro.
priation, and commencing highly the Sisters.
Mr.. Drake said there was no proof Of the 10y
atty of the Sisters.
The amendment was then rejected--yeas

Whatever you have to say, my f, lend,
Whether witty, or gave. or gay.
Condense as much as ever you can,
And say 1t the readiest way;
And whether you write Of rural affairs,
Orparticular things in town,
Just take word of friendly advice
Boil it down.
For if you go spluttcring over page,
When a couple of lines would do,
Your butter , spread so much, You s'e,
That the breai looks plaiuy through.
So when you have q story to tell,
And w. uld like little ronown,
To make quite sure OF your wish, my TREND,
Boil it down.
When writing on article for tn press,
Whether prose or verse, just try
To utter your thoughts in the fewest words,
And let them be crisp and dry.
And when it is finished, and you suppose
tits done exactly brown,
just look it over again, and then
Boil it down. M
For editors do not like 10 print
An article lazily long,
And the general reader does not care
For couple of yards of song.
So gather your wits in the smallest space,
1T you'd win the authors crown,
And every time you write, my friend,
Boil it down.
