If a reporter touches the decks Of an incoming
vessel, beware! Get ready your chlorinating
apparatus, fumigate and disinfect with all
your might for, horrible to relate, this man
may bring contagion to the town in the folds Of
his overcoat-his coat is so much more tena-
cious Of such things than the coats of the
Health Officers men, or than the passengers
trunk. Why does he have such ridiculous
kind of coat? Because he is reporter, and
rather takes something out of the Health
Officers pocket than puts anything in there
Now, they who declaimed against the bill
on this ground neglected to read it. The bill
so well provided for the safety of the public
health that it made the boarding Of ships de-
pendent upon the permission Of the Board Of
Health. Against the Board of Health, as a
body, no charge Of corruption lies. 1t is
quite as competent as any individual to judge
of peril to the public from disease, and is a
great deal more likely to act from proper mo-
tives; and the fact that the Board had this
there was sufficient control and that the
gathering of news from ships could
not do public harm. Now, we quite
agree with all those who are earnest on
this point We appreciate in its full length
and breadth the Importance of protecting the
public from the spread of imported diseases,
and especially from the danger that will arise
when ships are boarded by reporters even
though the reporters have other kinds of coats.
We therefore propose the Introduction of a bill
something like this, to be first corrected by
the lawyers =

The Closing Scenes In the Senate-The
Sprightly Spraguo in Danger.

The Closing Scenes in the Senate-The
sprishtly sprague in Danger.
The closing day of the late executive session
Of the Senate was enlivened, first, by solemn
lecture for the benefit of Sprague from Nye, of
Nevada next by some superfuous endorse
ment Of the bravery of General Burnside
against the attacks of Sprague, from Abbott,
of North Carolina, and Morton, of Indiana;
and next by a fiery speech from Sprague, in
which he cut and slashed right and left and
all around him, like Sheridan in a camp of In
dians, though not with the same cool discrimi-
nation. Sprague, in fact, Is too fiery, and
blazes away, right and left, with too much
impetuoaty. In this last effort he spoke of the
,''owners and hackers" of his colleague, Of
certain ''outside barbarians" and "cutthroats
and thieves who infest the stews and slums of
the city, and of "the infamous Fisk, Jr., (what
has Fisk done to incur the wrath Of SpragueO
and of the ''constitution, the constitution"
getting on the Andy johnson tack, and of
ssparricidal hands," and how the Senate has
been ''ignominiously and shamefully belittled"
by the ruling majority. Moreover, In this
rambling rigmarole the fiery Sprague compared
the Senator (Nye) Of Nevada to "a large mas
tiff" and the Senator from North Carolina
(AbbotD to ga mongrel puppy dog barking at
his heels" but which ''kick sent away howl
ing to take. shelter by his larger companion !"
while, as far as the patriotic Sprague himself
was concerned, he said that he expected to be
prosecuted as alternately drunk or crazy"
But this parable Of the large mastiG and the
puppy dog was mistake on the part 81 the
excited sprague. Abbott, of North Carolina,
didn't like 1t and couldn't stand 1t. So, with
the first opening il the wordy fray he pro-
ceeded to call the injudlcious Sprague to q
reckoning; but Sprague was missing.
Friends, it was said, had spirited him away.
But Abbott was not thus to be baf1ed. He
smphatically said that ''as the Senator has
skuked out of the chamber, intend TO have
satisfaction outside of this chamber !" and,
though called to order, he repeated the war
like declaration. He did not mean duel.
He meant that the Senator from Rhode Island
should make a retraction. 'Spank him."
said Senator Nye; and so the apparition Of
Abbott with q big stick will follow Sprague
until they meet and have q settlement.
