THE COMMITTEE ROOM VS., THE

The COMMITTEE ROOM VS.. THE
fLooR.-A score of years ago, and
less, it was enough for a man Co dis
claim his glowing tribute to the couu
try; after that he sat down satisfied.
His ambition seldom went beyond this.
and he would work months on a
speech to perfect it to the standard of
his time Doing this once or twice a
year, he thought was fulfilling all his
obligations to his constituency. To
talk el"quently was the chef business.
and all had time to listen. Some OF
the contents which agitated the soul of
the old orator, appear to MS like tenn
pests IN a tea pot in these latter days
SO full of big events. Now, the man
who occupies his place does his ear
nest talking with his colleagues in the
committeeroum. He who speaks in
the old way is regarded as superanuu-
atea or weak in mind. Now, men are
expected to make their points quickly
aud in bnsiness-like way. TIE bust
ness which was formerly conducted on
the floor of the chamber, is rapidly
passing into the committeeman. and
the tendency to strangle extended de-
bate is growing stronger every session.
The raw member, living in the old
traditions, who wishes to "save the
country" in a speech modelled after
Clay or Webster. is numerically
knocked down with the gavel, or is
sure of a hard fall or two at the hands
.of experienced athletes who devote
themselves to tripping mp new men
and bringing them under discipline.
The utilita,Ian has killed the orator,
and the glory Of grand sentences has

THE POET AND PROOF READER,
BY NJ. NJ.

All! here it is I'm famous now
An author and a poet!
1t really is in print. Ye gods!
How proud III be TO sh0wit!
And gentle Anna! What Il thrill
viii animate her breast,
10 read these ardent lines and know
70 whom they are addressed.
Why bless my soul! here's something
strange:
What can The paper mean
BY talking of the graceful brooks
| That gander DER the green?
And here a instead of +,
Which makes it tipping rill:
Wei! seek the shall, instead of shade
| And he'll, Instead Of hill.
They look so-what? Irecollect,
Twas sweet and then twas kind,
| And now to think the stupid fool
For bland has printed blind!
Was ever such provoking work!
Ills curious, by-the-by,
How anything is rendered blind
oy giving IL I'LL eye.
Hast thou no tears? the is left out,
Hast thou no ears instead:
4 hope that thou art dear, is put
| hope that thou art dead.
Who ever saw in such a space
so many blunders crammcd?
Those gentle eyes bedinmed, is spelt
Those gentle eyes DeIammeI,
The color of the rose, is nose:
Affection is atllcton;
l wonder if the likeness holds
In fact rs well as diction:
Thou al 4 friend, the T. is gone
Who ever would have denmed
That such q trtling thing could change
\ friend into Il hend.
Thou art the same is rendered lame
1t really is too bad.
And here. because an is out.
My lovely maid is mad:
They drove her blind, by poking in
An eye-a process new:
And now they've youged it out again,
And made her crazy too.
Let's stop and recapi'ulatc;
lve damned her eyes, that's plain
I've told her she's a lunatic,
Aud blind, and deaf and lame.
Was ever such horrid hash
In poetry or prose?
I've said she was a fiend, and praised
The color of her nose. -.

Signs.

crlticse, but | have had too many de-
monstrations to allow me to doubt that
certain coming events cast their shad-
ows before.
! If yon drop your dish cloth it is q
sign that some one in the family is go
ing to die. I have seen it tried. NV
mother dropped her dish cloth one NOR
ming, and just seventeen years after, to
an hour, my grandmother fell dead.
you break a looking glass it is q
sign that you are going to move soon.
knew family once where the woman
broke a looking-glass and said she de-
fed the sign, and that any one " no be-
lievea i'll signs was lacking something
IN the head. What followed? Why,
a. midnight that very night her house
took lire, the fremen came, and tho
nnbelievins woman was foated right
out into the alley.
If the tea kittle sings it is the SIGN of
some accident. There was zones: he
didn't believe it, said he'd lick tile hide
right off of any of his children, who
entertained any such belief. Now,
mark the result. Just eleven years,
five months and twenty-six days af,
forwards, Joues fell down stairs. drove
his thumbs up, broke his knee, put Ills
arm out of joint and injured his spine
for life.
1fyou happen to set three lights in
row it's a sign that present plans will
turn out as you hope for. I had an
uncle who set three lights in a row,
and his plans turned out all right. He
got the horse, just as lie had planned,
and was well out of the neighborhood,
but the Sign could not do any more,
and he was overbanled by a vigilance
committee, and left hanging to tree
to mediate. He wasn't worth much.
except as corpse he got through
meditatins.
If you see white horse and don't
spit over your shoulder and make a
wish, it is another bad Sign; YOU are
going to meet with great disappoint-
ment. A relative of mine used to
pooh, pooh such things; said he'd be
busted if he'd spit over his shoulder if
lie met forty white horses. But he
caught it. He didn't get drawn on the
Circuit Court Jury as he planned, and
was obliged to go to work and earn his
bread or starve. Since then he has al
ways spit over his shoulder at the
sight Of a white horse, and he is al
ways on the jury or gets big wages tor
being witness.
If ii load of hay tips over in front of
your house it is a good sign; it is q
token that friends are coming with
presents. didn't use to believe until
on one occasion, just as winter was
setting in and wood Sl2 per cord, a
load of hay was upset at my gate, and
three days afterward my brother-in-
law and family, uncle and family, my
mother in-law, two aunts and cousin
arrived at my house to spend month,
bringing me several presents, among
which were two pounds of dried APP
pies. a recipe for making a new kind
of soft soap, pair of stockings for the
baby, aud Il bunch OF herbs. After
these seventeen persons had been in
my house a month l was ready to be-
leve in almost anything Fireside

SnoorIxo ArYAfR.-A rumor that .
man named VIM. III. Arnold had been
shot BY 4. Johnson Cotton. Esq. resshed
Lconardtewn early on last Sunday morn
ing and caused considerable excitement
among our citizens. The facts "of the
shooting" % VIC have been able to collect
them from various and reliable sources.
not only exonerate Mr.. Cotton from oil
blame. but fully justify his conduct in the
premises.
1t would appear that Arnold and a man
named Chescldine had an alteration or
fght at or near Colton's Wharf on Satur-
day. the 26sh uliimo. aud that Arnold.
who was the aggressor. INDUCED in vul-
gar and obscene expressions within the
hearing Of the ladies' Of the Cotton fami-
ly. Mr.. Cotton interposed and remon-
strated with Arnold on the gross impro-
pricfy of Of his behavior. and endeavored
in quiet and friendly manner to sepsr-
ate the contestants. Arnold Immediately
turned on Mr.. Cotton. and clasp knife up
raised in hand. advanced upon him. Mr..
Cotton fell back few PAGES. and it was
not until farther retreat and forbearance
would have endangered bis life that he
drew lis revolver and shot Arnold. The
bullet struck the breast and penetrated
the right lung, aud has not yet been ex-
tracted.
According to last accounts Arneld's
condition is very critical. and although
the wound is not considered to be neces-
sarily mortal. little hopes are being enter
tanned Of his recovery. The synpathies
of our citizens are most entirely enlisted
in Mr. Colton's favor. who to pcaceable.
polite and quiet department. unites &C.
NAL, humane and generous disposition.
Arnold, we ere constrained to say, has
not earned or merited by his general con-
duct the character Of a quiet and law.
abiding citizen. We refrain. however.
from saying anything further to his dis
parasement in consideration Of the lamen.
table condition to which bis aggressive
conduct has reduced him.
