CoNTEsrIyG SEArs.-The fact that the
Democrats and Revenue Reformers will
have majority in the Forty-sccond Con-
gress. is exercising healthy influence
upon the Radicals. That influence is par
tieularly noticeable in the direction of con-
tested seats. For the last two Congresses
no Democrat was safe in his seat. All n
defeated Radical had to do was to get up
q contest, and he was admitted, no matter
what the facts or state of the returns were.
But since the last election. things have
changed. Morrcll refuses to contest the
seat Of Sreer in the Seventeenth district
OF Pennsylvania. and briggs in the Sixth
district of Michigan. announces a like de-
termination in reference to the case Of
Judge Switzerland. Cessna, Of Penn
sylvania. and Schcnck, of Ohio. are ai.
vertised 20 contest the seats Of their on
pcnents. but it is likely that both will
think better Of it and it is certain tha,
neither can now prosecute it with success

will continue, as heretofore. The con-
cluding section is another kind Of amnes-

acts done by officers of the United States.

suits against Butler. Il would be odd,
indeed. if the only real amnesty in his bill

The '.Grssshopper War" which took
place about the time the Pilgrims came to

An Indian woman. with her little son,

grasshopper on the road and carried 1t
with him. A lad from the other tribe
wanted it. but he refused to give it up -
A quarrel ensued. which soon drew the
fathers and mothers into the dispute, and
ere long,thoehiefs were engaged in n war
which nearly exterminated one tribe.
Several centuries ago, some soldiers Of
Modena carried away bucket from a

A SroaY WITH MoR,L.-A Connec-

a boy who was sent from Grotton. Conn =,
with bag of green corn. The boy was
gone all day. and returned with the bag
unopened, which he dumped on the floor,
saying:
There's your corn; 60 and sell it; l
can't"
Sold any?'
"No; I've been all over London with
it. and nobody said anything concerning
green corn. Two or three fellows asked
me what had in my bag, and | told them
it was none of their business what it was -
The bow is not unlike hundreds of bus
iness men, who will probably call him a
fool for not telling what he had to SELL
They are actually doing the same thing
on a much larger scale than did the boy,
