Ihiet- lie gistrate are numbered.
'Sare me, Ben" said NE cousin, and
take o,y Office you want.
! 90 Nlshter Butler went to some OF the
Numbers, and had the matter STAYED of,
and we hope it may be forgotten. 1t has
trlghteued me cousin so bad that he lm
AGNES he feels something crawling up bis
troWseIs legs all the time. 1t II was me,
now, people would ,hwear 1t was jim jams.
Ne cousin says this Congress /. the mosht
meddesome one he liver saw. DInt came
in to day and towId me cousin that ovid
Dawes was talking about passing a bill to
preVnt army officers being kept on duty at
, tha executive mansion. If this passes II
vii be the hardest blow intireiy on me
Uus n. for he depends on Dnt for every~
ming, except fiat | help him, IN the way
Of getting up his messages and the like.
And Dint Is scared, for his great talent lies

cousin.
Sheridan has been here on duty for
few days, attending dances and receptions.
He reports matters IN the Indian country
about HE Chicago headquarters as very
satisfactory. He says there hasn't been
ony Indians seen in the vicinity of his
camp in Palmer's Marble Block, Chicago,
for many moons, and thinks he can how'd
out against ony odds there, for an indef>
mite pariod, ii the Government kapes the
rlut paid up. Further west he says affairs
are Sthill more Satisfactory. On The plains
nearly all the Indians have got the smal~
pox, and as they are well supplied wild army
surgeons ii Is behaved none can survive.
Ne cousin says this IS highly encouraging,
and shows that the old adage that hen
esty is the best policy" is played out.
The Quaker policy is the besht. Mr..
Sheridan reports wild pride that one Of his
regiments on the plaius, through pure
straiegy and great bravery, surrounded
squaw and a pap0ose, and before she could
rally aud tie 'egraph back for her support
lame indian-she was run through wild
eight hundred bayonets. She died, but
then she was sick before. Sheridan is a
rising young man, but his legs are TOO short
TO play billiards. Me cousin can discount
him.
M>hter Senator Sumner complains to
me cousin that Sinator named Mungen
las published spache in the Congress
si0aGl G'olc in finch he accuses the Mas
sachusetts Snaior Of being eunuch, and
other diShoyal practices Mi.hter Sum

If his Shtate VIII shtand tamely by and see
him abused in such manner, and he
wants the President to repfimand Mishter
. Mung2n. Ne cousin says they mustn't SET
. tie their own disputes on such great pcliti
ca questions, and he won't take side.
aither way Fiat the divil is a eunuch?

political economy, including Horace Gray
ley le'thors, and can find it | axed one
of the famale lobbyists here as she was
talking wild Sumner, and she nearly kilt
me wld wather pitcher.
Me cousin DiIsses and meself think of
taking little trip Tor ms health, while
those numbering questions about selling
cadetShlps and admitting nagur Sinators
