REJECTION OF THE CANADIAN RECIPROCITY
TREATY.
The senate in executive session Wednesday
afternoon had before them the reciprocity trea-
ty between: the United States and Canadas
There was some expression iof views, but the
treaty, having but few. if any friends, was re-
jected without division.
A RECEPTION FOR ANDY JOHNSON.
Friends of Andrew johnson are working in
Washington quietly getting up subscriptions to
give him a mammoth reception. A torchlight
procession, with band, and a grand collation.
or dinner, with addresses of welcome, form the
features of the contemplated occasion.
LIVELY ROW IN THE HOUSE.
A misunderstanding nearly involving serious
consequences occurred in the House Wednes-
day, at the opening of the debate on the civil
rights bill. Mr.. Butler made use of the epi-
thets "murderers, assassins and horse thieves"
in such close connection with the words "a ma
jority of the people of the South, that Mr.. Nc
Lean of Texas understood him to say a majori-
ty of the people of the South were murderers,
assassins and horse-thieves. Firing up with
true Texan facility. Mr.. Mclean used some
very strong language, that part which got into
the reporters note books being THE only
murderer know on this floor is the gentleman
from Massachusetts,, who murdered q man in
New Orleans" Mr.. Butler did not hear this,
but was presently informed of i by some of
his friends, upon which he asked il the remark
had been made, at the same time walking in
belligerent manner across the area IN front Of
the speakers desk toward Mr.. Mclean. The
latter stated what ne understood Mr.. Butler to
say, and Mr.. Batler denied that he had said
so. Mr.. Mclean reioined in an ugly way that
if Mr. Butler did not say so he withdrew his re-
mark, but if Mr.. Butler did mean to call
southern people murderers and horse thieves
he would repeat his offensive remark and dared
Mr.. Butler to resent it. "lf," said the irate
Texan to Mr. Butler, 'you have got any sons,
let them come on too" After some delay the
official reporter wrote out the remarks which
caused this episode, aud as it appeared that
Mr.. Butler had spoken alphabetically, Mr..
Mclean allowed his friends to appease him.
Mr.. Butler, however, could not refrain from ut
tering his favorite sentence, that so far from
being ashamed of hanging Mumford in New
Orleans, he was onls sorry that he had not
hanged more men down there. The debate
then proceeded in peace.

Mrnn1E NOT WITH ANoTHER's HI

NEEDLE NOT WITH ANoTHER's HICCUPs.
A young gentleman had been told that
sudden shock or fright would cure the hic-
cups, and the other evening, while he was
studying his lesson for the morrow by draw
ing a picture of the schoolna'am on his
slate, his respected progenitor was seized
with fit of hiccups. The old gentleman
was tilted back in his chair, with his feet
resting on the top of the stove, and the
young hopeful concluded TO try the cure on
him. Just as the old man was ''rastling"
with a heart-breaking hic the boy jumped
and yelled "Frer' The old man was just
getting out cuh-cuh, but he never got it
out. He gave jump which tilted over the
chair, and in endeavoring to regain his lost
equilibrium his feet flew up against the
table, upsetting it and student lamp which
stood upon it, and his head landed in the
ashes on the stove hearth. The old lady,
hearing the racket, came running in from the
kitchen and tripped over the old m ans pros
trate form, knocking down whatnot with
lot of glass and China ornaments. When
that boys father arose from the wreck and
shook the ashes and splinters of glass out of
his hair and clothes he was cured OF the hic-
cups, but there was look Of sternness in his
eye. The boy can't play tag now, and he
sits on the edge of the seat at school and lies
on his front when in bed, and silently MUIR
murs that the old man can hiccup his old
head off before he will ever try to cure him.

[From the Philadelphia North American
Tho Northern SeabOard.

The old states of the seaboard are popularity
supposed to be so densely populated as to be no
longer fair fields for emigration or enterprise.
And for long time immigration has passed
through them like water through sieve, and
a large surplus of their own restless population
has gone west Yet it may be doubted if any
portion of the west has capacity equal to the
region living east of the Allegheny Mountains.
Experience proves that the western states grow
with extraordinary rapidity until they reach
certain point, when the increment falls below
that of the Atlantic States. But on the sea-
board, where the growth has been regular aud
steady grand and remarkable stage of de-
velopment has set in, characterized By prod
igious activity of capital and an amazing in
crease of metropolitanlsm. The western from
tier is now SO remote that the fever OF emgra-
tion is ceasing, and the attractions OF the sea.
hoard come into view again. In the case of
the leading states the belief is that they can
surround life in their populous districts with
even greater graces and elegances than are to
be generally met with in Europe, and the
achievements of New York in that way are of
no small account. The aim in view is to win
back the entire mass of our absentees, and to
make the civilization OF these seaboard states
superior in aspect, as well as IN reality,
to anything that can be seen elsewhere.
The improvements already made in Boston,
New York and Philadelphia are only the be-
pinnings of this work, and will be followed up
on even grander scale. These three cities
having carried the finances of the republic on

Mrs. FITcH's COSTLY ELEPHANT.-How is
Lieut. Fitch to get the Khedive's present to
Mrs. Fitch, nee Sherman, through the custom
house free of duty? is a question which revenue
experts here and in w ashington are trying to
solve. He being an officer iii the government
service, congress had to pass the act allowing
him to receive the diamonds, but the impost on
on them is not waived by the act. The Turkish
minister cannot ask for a permit for them, as
they are not for himself or his family and are
not even consigned to his care, being sent di-
rect to Mrs. Fitch through the banking house
of Drexel, Morgan & Co. Secretary Brlstow
is net disposed to issue free permit merely De-
cause the gems are from foreign ruler TO the
daughter of the general of the army. Inc du-
ty, which is twenty-five per cent. on set dia-
mopds would amount to about $75,0OO, for
tune which neither Lieut. Fitch nor his father
in,Iaw will probably care to throw away on a
nresent which will not be of any utili-
Nv or benefit in their lifetime. Even if Mrs.
Fitch eventually gets the diamonds they
will become white elephant on her hands, as
there will be few occasions when she can wear
them, and to keep them safe she will have to
pay rent for their storage with a deposit com
pany The revenue men decide that the only
way to escape the payment of duty is to take
out warehouse entry for the diamonds and ex
port them back to Europe. Mrs. Fitch can
follow them there and wear them at some
grand levee, and then bring them here as per-
sonal property in use.-Nep York San.

The influence of the great bonanza already

A French paper contains paragraph to
the effect that "General Sickles has hotel
in the rue de Presbourg, Paris" and West
ern editor, distinguished for learning and i'm
partiality, renders it, General Sickles runs
high-prieed hash-house in Paris" This
translation may be idiomatic, but it conveys
an amount OF peculiar misnformation which
must be very CALLING to man of the Generaps
delicate and sensitive feelings.-Brooktyn Ar-
gus.
The naturally dominant class of the South,
Instead of accepting terms and addressing it
self to any scheme of rehabilitation likely to
give permanent results, has stood aloof and
now proposes to take the reins of govern
ment, with the aid of its ally, the northern
democracy, and dictate terms TO the rest of
the country. Having none of the response
bililies of power. it need announce no policy,
but may hold itself ready to profit by all err
rors and discontents of the party in power of
whatever nature. Shall it succeed? 1t GER
tainly will do so, unless patriotic Republicans
rally 10 the front, control their party, and re-
treve its errors.-BOston Transcript.
Concerning the new Senator from Michigan
the Cincinnati Gazette says: ''The Detroit
Post calls the defeat of Mr.. Chandler "a
Democratic success" Yes, the same kind Of
Democratic ssuccess'' the election of Senator
Ferry, in Connecticut, was. We speak with
in bounds when we say that the Democrats
crowed a great deal more over that success"
at the time it was won than they ever did
afterward. Ferry, in fact, became an intol-
cradle thorn in their side when he began to
denounce "the midsummer Madness" and
they have not let up hating him since.
Judge Christiarcy is, from all accounts, la
BILE to surprise his friends in the same kind OF
way.
Mr.. Benjamin F. Butler is slow 10
understand that the Republican party is done
with him; that the election of last fall was
crushing condemnation of Butlersm; that
nothing can damage the party so much as the
association of his ma me with it, or his appear
ance in the capacity of its counsellor and pro-
tector. 1t is charitable to presume that Mr..
Butler is ignorant Of these facts, and to at
tribute his mistaken zeal in behalf of the par
ty to ignorance rather than to malice. He
ought to know better. Some of his friends
should so inform him, and save him from
doing fulther mischief; or, if they will not,
some of the friends of the party, who love it
better than they love Butler, should under
