valid; for if they do, Congress might
soon be without quorum. If every
member who is unfit should resign, how
many Representatives would Pennsylva-
MIA have? How many New York? There
must be limit to modesty somewhere,
and we desire Mr.. Morrisey to fix it by
remaining in his seat-or, as they say he
is never in it, going to it.
Take him all in all, Hon. John Nor
rissey has been no bad Representative;
he has introduced no bill, it is true, and
has made no speech, yet, if he has done
nothing good, he has done nothing bad.
He has served his country better by 81
lence and indifference than other gentle
men have done, whose names are always
in the Globe, and who are always crying
out Mr.. Speaker" Let him stay at
least till the tariff bill is disposed of. 1t
is likely that that debate will result in
free fight, and New York can safely de-
pend upon him to represent her then, ~

slight Mistake.

When hoop-skirts first came into fash
ion. there lived in the city of M an
excellent physician who kept drug
store. Hoop-skirts then, as now, were
often called skeletons. One day lady
stepped into the store and inquired of the
Doctor if he had any skeletons, meaning
hoop-skirts. The Doctor asked the lady
to step down to the back end of the
store, and as he did so, he opened two
folding doors to a closet and disclosed to
full view two human skeletons hung by
wires. The lady screamed, turned pale,
and tainted. The frightened Doctor APP
piled restoratives, and as the lady came
to she exclaimed in a tone Of terror;
" Skeletons, bot obi not that kind. II

the last of skeletons. fva, -aslas

The Boston AdyertiseE says: Miss
Elise Holt e certainly the best bprlssque
actress England has sent us. She can
dance better, sing wi:h more shades Of
expression, and deliver the cbaste but

with greater effect than any Of the Lydia
Thompson troupe. The hFst requisite
for burlesque actress il impndenee,
and this quality, rari6ed and condensed,

STRANGE CHARACTER.
A Man with n Mania for Seeing His
FeIIOW.beiDg Asleep.

EeIlOW.DeiDSs Asieep.
From the Louisville Courier Journal, May II.
A man who gave his name as Charles
Watkins, and who turns out to be Charles
Livingstone, once respectable mer-
chant IN this city, was arrested while
trying to enter the house of Mr.. Schaeffer,
on Portland avenue, before daylight
yesterday morning This man has a
strange mania, for which name is yet
to be invented. He will break into a
house at night just for the luxury of
standing by the bedside Of a person and
looking at him or her, as the case may
be, as they lay asleep He has been
known to do this ON several occasions
and, after standing there and gazing for
hours, leave without disturbing anything
and close the doors carefully after him.
Z About six months ago he got himself
into serious trouble in this way being
arrested as burglar and held to answer.
He entered the room of young lady
after she had retired and gone to sleep.
Taking his favorite position beside the
bed, he stood gazing at the beautiful
sleeper till, perhaps, conscious of the
presence near her, she awoke and was
frightened terribly. By the faint light
of the moon as it shone through the
lattice, she saw this stranger standing
still and motionless at her bedside. She
screamed and tainted, and the inmates
of the house, aroused by the noise, came
running in just in time to catch the in
truder. The affair caused good deal of
excitement, and no little gossip al the
time, but subsequent facts have proved
that the man was harmless, and went
there just to satisfy this singular longing
of his He has been caught in several
such places since then, but at no time
has he ever disturbed anything or any
body. He was presented to the court as
a suspected felon, charge hardly iusti-
fed by the facts in the case, and held in
$500 to be of good behavior for twelve
months. His case is a strange one
indeed ~ NY .Ah 81k&
