"A steamboat agent was taken before
Bross yesterday, by Myers and Arnold, for
wearing his badge on that part Of the
body, upon which, according to IgnAtius
Donnelly, of Iowa, the Washburne family
came into the world, branded ready made

Rights. But, as our municipal code ex-

steamboats, shall wear his badge upon the
lapel of his coat OF in conspicuous
position on his hat, the agent was forced
to pay eleven dollars and forty cents for
his little joke.

bird of our country need not, in the
east be ashamed. Mr.. G. sailed around
in Roman history rs If he knew and loved
Did Romulus since the latter's boyhood.
Later in the day Mr.. Jackson tested his
powers on the subject OF freedom
and the duties of the newly enfranchised
,itizen. His remarks elected applause,
and it would have done Mrs. Stanton's
heart good to have witnessed the cnthusi-
lsm Of the colored sisters while listening
10 his speech. The garden was thronged,
and the day was hot; and oil the sweet
perfumes Of Africa were there. Two

of half block, and the thermometer at
ninety eight. Think of it
