ing epigram written Of the "Con.

scenes and incidents:
Dogs delight to bark and bite,
Like F~arnsworth, Butler, Beck,
Was ever such disgusting sight,
A Congress gone to wreck.
When Pot calls the Kettle black,
And Butler risks one eye,
Who wonders that their party hack
Should start this Ku-K1ux cry.
ScallaWag debates, Union League broils,
The dlthiest scum Of mother earth,
Tammany cOrruptiOns, Carpet-bagspoiIs,
This Congress, rotten az its birth,
ObedlenJ to Tyrsut's will,
Passed this infamous Ku-KluX bilI
Having thus ended our civil war.

COX TO YOUR
New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1871-06-22

A New Orleans man was robbed in a
Broadway stage in New York last Friday,
as appears by the following report in the
World:
AS Detective Farley, of the central office,
was walking along Broadway yesterday
afternoon he noted Nellie Flowers, alias
Williams, young and fashionably attired
female, riding in stage. Farley, knowing
her to be an expert pickpocket, jumped in
the stage, and informing the ladies and gem
tlemen in the vehicle that she was a pick
pocket, took her out and marched her off to
police headquarters. In a few moments
Mr. Ezekiel Solomon, resident of New Or
leans, at present temporarily residing at
No lbs Fifth avenue, beside whom Nellie
had been seated while in the stage, rushed
into the detective office and said that he had
been robbed of his pocketboOk, containing
$50 and papers. He fully identified Nellie
as the woman who sat beside him. Mr..
Solomon said that he had taken out his
pOcketboOk TO pay his fare in the stage, at
which time Nellie was sitting opposite him.
Soon after returning the pocketbook to his
pocket, Nellie arose from her seat and sat
beside him, and remained there until Far
lev took her out of the stage. A few mo-
ments afterward he missed his pocketbook.
Nellie was arraigned before Justice Hogan
at the Toombs yesterday afternoon, when
Mr. Solomon made an affidavit against her,
and she was committed for trial in default
| of $1,000 bail

THERE'S LUCK IN ODD NUMBERs.--A ma.
tive of the Emerald Isle a few days since,
while discussing with a ticket agent the
merits of the different railroad routes,
stated that he had heard the Erie railroad
mentioned and asked whether it would be a
good route to take when going North. The
ticket agent, who was interested in another
route, commenced reply contrary to the
good name of the Erie by stating: at is
true that the broad gauge is an AL road
"Stop there said Pat, IF it's the AL III
try it, for there is luck in odd numbers
And he bought tickets from our friend
Major Bates.
