a TEalpERATE CONGRESS.

The Washington correspondent Of
the Chicago E'vening Journal writes
Tine was when, perhaps, to have bcen
Congressman was to have been
drunkard. But those we're days when
forensic eloquence was introduced and
supplemented by the whisky glass up
on h6stncipbsf's desk, and when Puri-
tans RreachcfS braced themselves to
proclaim the "dsmnatioh of hell" by
tho substantial inspiration of whisky
toddy. Now the only approach to a
pnblic use Of stimulants in Congress
is the siloRt urn of tea in tho House
lobby and tho two modest cups of
maccaboy snuff which grace either
end of the Speakers table. The
change in public exhibitions of in
temperance among our leading men is
not less marked than is this difference
in the character of tho recognition
given to stimulants by Congress. 1t
is not SO many years since it would re-
quire the fingers on more hands than
one to count tho drunkards in Con-
gress. At nearly the same time there
were three confirmed inebriates hold
ing seats in the United States Senate.
And although there are many public
men who looked upon "the wine when
it is red" and white, and golden yell
low, do not know of man in either
house Of Congress who can be called Il
drunkard. know not offs man holding
position Of any considerable promi-
nence in the government service who
is addicted to Incorporate habits.
There are hundreds of clerks here,
some of whom have at time something
in their pockets, and little in their
heads. The hummer class is made up
Of these clerks. But the drunkenness
among them is by no means as consid-
cradle as has been described. l do
not know that there are more young
men of dissolAte habits among govern
pent clerks here than may be found
among q similar number of young
men in similar employments in coui-
mercial cities. And there are hun
dreds of young men here who, with
scanty salaries, uncertain tenure of of
flee, fair abilities and large families, have
saved enough by temperance and econ
emy~to buy themselves good homes,
and will transmit honorable pames to
their children, in spite of the whole
sale aspersions which are cast upon
their class.

SAMUEL N. PIKE.

Among the "reminiscences Of Samuel
N. Pike, the recently deceased million
aire, the Cincinnati Gasette has the
following:
When his first opera house was built
he superintended himself its construc-
tion. He gave out ne contracts save,
we believe, for plastering; but he Sc
cured the completion of the building
for a sum considerably less than in
those days such wSrk was usually done.
When that work was finished, and
when in March, 1859, the grand Opera
House was thrown open to the public,
there was probably no more happier
man in the city than Mr.. Pike. Stra-
kosch inauguFated tho season, and the
house, We remember, and martha"
was announced for the first perform
ance. Among others in the east wore
Nine. Strakosch and Brignoli. There
was an audience present of thirty-fiye
hundred, and tho enthusiasm as tho
entertainment progressed grew apace.
FHm the Gazette of the following
morning wo take this account of the
reception that was accorded the
builder:
At the close of the fourth act there
were confused calls for "Colson," ("
pike" "Barras," "Brignoli," &c.
Mesdames Colson, and Strakosch, and
Junea came before the curtain and
were greeted with applause.
Then arose q cry of Pikel Pike |! I!

A NEW STORY.

Some years ago there was we'll
known engineer, whose name is not
given, for good and sufficient reasons,
ran passenger train on one of the
most popular and most travelled roads
that run out of indianapolis. Ata
certain place on the road, every night
for about u week, as the passenger
train run by this engineer came thun-
dering along, it was certain to bs
thrown from the track by obstructiens
placed there. Several of these mis-
haps to the train caused loss of life,
and the ability Of the engineer was
being questioned. One night as the
unfortunate train was nearing the "a.
tai spot, the engineer who was sitting
glum and silent at the throttle, turned
to the fireman and said "If this train
jumps the track at that place to-night,
you follow me; don't stop for any
thing, but keep close after me, Some
body has been throwing this train off
the track, and I'm going to catch
him."
When the train arrived at the usual
place it struck misplaced rail and
was banked. The engineer, closely
followed by the fireman, jumped from
tho engine and ran into y cornGeld
and started up man that lay con,
cealed there. Upon bringing the cul-
prit back to the wreck tho enraged
passengers wanted to lynch him. The
engineer, n stern, cold, determined
man, prevented thom, saying he would
take care of him, and through the in
tercession of tho conductor the trem-
bling wretch was left in charge of the
engineer The train was righted and
was soon speeding on it's way. The
prisoner, who had confessed the deed,
had been. seated OH the engine and the
fireman placed beside him as n guard.
When the train was on smooth piece
of track the engineer beckoned the
fireman to stand out Of the way. The
fireman stepped aside, and tho engi-
Deer picked up round stick of wood
and struck the criminal such blow
upon the head that it stunned him.
He then caught the 'quivering form of
the poor wretch, and, openeing the
furnace doors, threw the body into tho
hot, seething hell of fame. The doors
were shut and the train ratified along
and never until upon his death bed
did the engineer confecs the act, nor
was it ascertaincd what had been tho
fate of the fend who had been in the
habit of throwing the passenger train
off the track,-Lndianapolis Sentinel.

So PER ANNUM.

Mrs Pike and the friends with her
looked at tho body of the house. But
Mr.. Pike was net TO be seen, and the
cries grew louder and more peremtory
At length Mr.. Barras, the indefatiga
bic manager, appeared and said that
che wished Mr.. Pike we're there tU
speak for himself, but and then,
at the side, he saw Mr.. Pike coming,
and he stopped.
Mr.. Pixies appearance was the sig
nal for the most terrific applause. The
usually we'll behaved balcony aud
parquet were so tumultuous in their
shouts that an individual in the gale.
ry shouted: "Order in the pitp' and
then there was silence, and Mr.. Pixies
speech.
Mr.. Pike looked at the house, turn
ed pale, and said:
Ladies' and gentlemen: You call
me, and here l am; but l hardly
know what to say" Laughter.
Then he grew paler and more embar-
rassed, looked at his private box and
around the house, and continued:
"They say actions speak louder than
words. Herc-(throwing wide open
his arms as if to comprehend the
whole houso)--here are mine, and to
them l rcfcr you" prolonged cheers. ]

tie droning movement of his hand, he
seemed to throw the cobra in the same
trancc-like state that the bird had
evinced, while the latter reused up and
flew eagerly into the jugglcr's bosom,
which had been opened for its recep-
tion. From this same capacious re-
ceptacle, apparently exhaustless in its
resources, was drawn out another CO.
bra, and after allowing them time to
make each others acquaintance, some
times exciting them to anger, and
again soothing to quietude by his soft
words and droning motions, the jug
gler wrapped them around his neck
and arms, and stood with exultant
pride, allowing them to touch his nose,
the tip of his tongue, and in one ip-
stance the pupil of his eye, with their
vibrating tongues. But all the while
he held small Lutte in his hand, and
when words seemed TO fail he played a
few notes on the instrument, which soon
reduced the reptiles to a state of
dreamy quioscence. After performing
various daring feats with them, to
show the audience that the snakes had
in no way been mutilated, he threw a
large chicken between thom. Both
struck at it, and it died in about five
minutes.
