JOHN GOVODE.
THE REASON WHY HE NEvER FoRGAvE THE
DEMOCRATIC PARTY.

The following. coucerning the old rascal.
told by Washington correspondent, is pref
ty 2 od:
One day, early in the session, CJvode told
one of his friends that there was good deal
Of whisky drank in that room. His friend

next day"

That's good idea," said Uncle John,
"it's a wonder hadn't thought of it before. :"
So a new lock was put On the washstand
"a large rosewood case with doors in the
front and marble top. This would hold a
small keg of whisky. TIVE or three depnij Inns,
or a couple Of dozen bottles. The new lock
did not seem to work very satisfactorily.
day or two after it was adjusted. the whole
store. about d. zen Strong, was taken.
few days after the lock was changed again :;
no use-more whisky gone mysterIously
Finally very intricate and complicated lock
was put on. Then the robbery was to stop
sure. The very next night demii Inn Gis~
appeared.
1t was but natural that by this time Uncle
John became little discouraged and rnhap-
py. Still. lie could not give up the luxury
of having something nice about him all the
time. 1t was pleasant to give friend a
drink once in while, and it was sociable.
and finally he got mad and swore he would
be doggoned if be wouldn't keep little of
the stuff in his room, and he would be dog
Goned if he would allow anybody to steal
it. So he set trap. A new stock had ar
rived that day, and he put it iu the wash
staad, as usual. After the House adjourned.
he concealed himself in the room and waite l..
He did not have TO wait long. He heard
two pairs Of feet tip-toeing up 20 the door
lie laid low. Pretty soon a key turned in
the lock, and then two men entered. From
his hiding place Uncle John peeped cut and
recognized two waggisl Democratic mem
bers. who were fond Of their Ike. but still
fonder Of Uncle Johns whisky, Still Uncle
John laid low. but kept his ewes open. The
two men walked straight to the wash stand
and deliberately itied cg The maJle top
This was all, but it was enough Tor Uncle
John. lie kept quiet. however, until they
had banded out two or three bottles. Aud
then he stepped out aud said:
''That'll do. boys. want the rest"
There was at first cousiernation on one
side, a. may be Imagined, ard anger on the.
Other. but these soon gave way t. laughter al
laughter was succeeded by drinks. 1t was
good joke On both sides. bu; Uncle John
Covede. to the day of his death. never for
gave the Democratic party for that trick.

markable cures. So mild as to be safe and
beneficial to children, and yet so searching
as to efectually purge out the great cor
ruptions of the blood, such as the scroiillous
and syphilitic contamination. Impurities,
or diseases that have lurked in the system
for years, soon yield to this powerful anti
dote, and disappear. Hence its wonderful
cures, many of which are publicly known,
of ScrOfula, and all scrofulous diseases.

The LAUGHING PLANT.-In Palgrave's
Eastern and Central Arabia," we are told
some interesting facts concerning this siugu-
lar plant. The active principle appears to
reside principally in its seeds. These seeds,
when powdered and administered 10 full ju-
dicious guam titles. produce effects similar to
those produced by the celebrated laughing>
gas of Sir Humphrey Davy. The person
to whom the drug is administered, laughs,
sings, dances, and conducts himself in the
most extravsgant and ludicrous style. After
an hour Of this intense excitement. he falls
asleep, and, upon awakening, is totally un-
conscious of anything that he said or did
while under the influence of the drug. 1t is
a common joke to put small quantity into
the coffee of some unsuspecting individual.
in order to enjoy laugh at his antics and
it is said that, when judiciously given, it has
never produced any evil effects. The plants
which bear these berries grow only in Ara
bia. To Kaseem it hardly attains the height
Of six inches above the ground, while in
Oman it has reached the height of three or
four feet, with wide>spreadng limbs. The
stems are woody, and when stripped of the
bark have yellowish tinge; the leaf is of
dark green color, ard pinnated. with about
twenty leaflets on either side i; the stalks are
smooth and shining: the flowers are yellow,
and grow in tufts, and anthers numerous
The fruit is a capsule. stuffed with greenish
padding. in which lie imbeddsd two or three
black seeds, in size and shape much like
French beaus. Their taste is swsetsh, but
with peculiar opiate flavor. The smell is
overpsweriDg and almost sickly.

.7lvs. Oates, comic Opcgn COMPANY,

0iE readers need not be told who this
famous lady is, nor what have been the
attractions of her. company, which will
reappear il Eew Orleans next Sunday
evening. this time at the st. Charles The
atre. = F0rtuR7o,' we suppose, will be the
opening barlesque. The St. Louis Demo-
cFat has this first rate uotice of the play
and the company:
The fun Of F0rtu1tio is SO innocent and
laughter provoking that even the pulpit
orator, who lately denounced the theatre
as the sewer OF crime, would be forced to
smile, and acknowledge there was nothing
harmful in it.
Mrs. Gates vocalism is superb, and her
vlvaclous ways will ever make her a favor
ite. She is decidedly Frenchy in her by
play, and gestiCulates even more than
Aimee, She, in her ready wit and bright
ness. possesses far greater entertaining
powers than mere personal beauty could
give. She ls just the style that sends great
broad sh0uldoFed fellows into perfect Dlub-
DeGs OF admiration whenever she crooks her
leg or tciils note.
Her company. IN the main, is above the
average. The bloDde-wig business, for
m9rly Harry Aliens, is well done bv John
Hows0n, who manipulates some Of the most
souI-harC0wEng Puns yet discoverd. His
voice Is very sweet one, and reminds one
alternately OF Parepa and Carl k0rmcs.
Crane, Pratt and the rest of the company
bring N wrIggling jokes on shutters. fire
them point blank at the audience, and al
ways with deadly effect. Going out last
evening, several ladies in the audience
slipped up on buttons that had escaped from
waistcoats, and were quite se-
veCeiy injured.

Efforts are likely to be renewed to unseat
three Liberal Republican chairmen of
House committees, Messrs. Banks, Blair
and Farnsworth.
Both Republican organs of this city to-day
express dissatisfaction with the continu-
ance OF these gentlemen in their official
positions as chairmen of committees.
The Republican attributes the vote of the
House last Monday against accepting the
resignation of Banks, to the argument of
Mr.. James Brooks, and censures the Repub-
ican members for following his counsel
There is a warm feeling Oh the subject,
because the action of the House is regarded
an implied censure on the Senate in the
cases of Sumner, Trumbull and others.
1t is probable that Trumbull, Fenton and
Rice will lose the chairmanships of their
committees

The interior of the church of the Divine
Paternity presented today sombre and
beautiful appearance. The pulpit was
heavily draped in Grape, and long lines of
Grape were suspended from every pillar
and every abutment Of the beautiful Gothic
interior. The several offerings in the
church were. exquisite in design and ap-
propriateness. The principal among them
were the following: 81 know that my Re

At the rear of the pulpit was sheaf of
wheat from Chappaqua, in the form of

In front of the pulpit was a beautiful de-
sign of flowers. with the words, "It is DONE"

the Tribune Office, quill from the German
Greeley club, basket of flowers with
crown and cross from the Lincoln club, and
floral offerings from Lotus, Arcadians, Her
aid and other clubs.
As early as nine o'clock the crowd flocked
to the church, but only those having tick

o'clock the galleries, which had been re-
served for ladies, were crowded.
About a quarter before eleven President
Grant entered, and Immediately following
him were Senator Henry Wilson, Minister
Washburn and Secretary Of War Belknap.
They took seats on the right of the pulpit.
