TRIALS OF AN HONEST LEGISLATOR

"The Man in the Gallery' writes to
the Albany Times:
"A gentleman who now occupies seat
IN the upper branch. but at the time
was member of the Assembly, relates
the following:
Perkins was as honest q man as ever
set foot in Albany. Money couldn't
buy him, and knew it, but thought
I would have little fun with him SO
L went down to his room one evening
and said:
"Perkins, what do you think of that
underground railroad bill? Are you
going to vote for it?''
"Weu," said Perkins, 81 haven't
made up my mind yet, exactly. l am
inclined to think it is a good bill; but
why do you ask ?'
'I thought you were in favor Of it,"
said I, ssand as long as you have con-
Guided to vote for it, 1 just wanted to
say to you that the men interested in it
are paying $500 for votes, and as it is
coming UP on it's final passage to-mor-
row, you can Just as we'll have the
money as not; you'll vote for the bill
any way"
"Vote for the bill! I'ii be hanged
first" cried the irate Perkins. ono
sir. If improper means are being taken
to pass this thing, as you say, for one
will vote against it every time. You
can put me down tno.'''
'sOh, don't care anything about the
bin" said I "I was only trying to do
you Il favor, and I think I can yet, for
to tell the truth the rival companies
arc here in full force and arc moving
heaven and earth to defeat it. They
are paying the same amount for snoes'
and as long as you are bound to vote
that way, I'll get you the $500 all the
sumc.''
"Can such things be-" exclaimed
Perkins, rising from his scat and tear
ing up and down the room in a whirl-
wind of righteous wrath and virtuous
Indignation. "What a state of things
this is \ plague on both your houses !
l won't vote at all"
CAN right" said / as I laid my hand

Brigham Young and Speaker Blaine.

The Herald publishes II Salt Lake
City dispatch, giving report of an in
tcrvieW between Brigham Young and
Speaker Blaine, wherein Young wished
to impress the latter with the idea that
Congress had no right whatever to in
tcricre with the local affairs or govern
ment of the territory in any respect.
Tho Speaker reminded him that the
Presidential contest Of 1861 was fought
on the distinct issue of the right Of Con-
gross to contract the domestic institu-
tions of Territories, and that Lincoln
was chosen on that ground.
Brigham claimed that Utafl's rights
demanded that it be admitted us Il
State.
Blaine replied that it never would be
as long as polygamy was upheld and
practiced. What evils We're done in
the States We're done ci;ludcstincty
against law, but those done in Utah
were done with the full sanction of law
JIG said he wished to leave on Ioung's
mind the impression that Congress
may at any time legS!atc on Utah
