ETect of the Message on ReDuJ-
Hcd'ts at UashinOtOn
.SpecaM Dispatch 10 TIE World.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 13,-The special
message Of the President on the Loui-
siana situation was promptly submit.
yea TO the Senate to-day in answer TO
the resolution of Senator Thurman,
passed on Friday last. Ii was read in
the presence of crowded galleries, lis
tened to with undivided attention by a
full Senate, and then laid on the table
without debate and ordered to be
printed. The temper of the lnessage
fully confirmed the nredictions regard
ing it made last night, and snslains
fully the charge that to preserve the
unity of the Cabinet and the Radical
party in Congress an aggressive, violent
document, defending to The utmost
the rule of the bayonet, was changed
into an equiv0cal, evasive and I'M.
truthful message. Some of the Repul-
lican politicians in both houses applaud
it as IA shrewd movement to retrieve
the party from its decentralization,
while others are disposed to look upon
1t as an eifrot to shift the responsibility
of the Louisiana difficulties from the
Executive TO CengHess, and thereby TO
tile delrsment of the party. 1t is quite
agreed ON all sides that the message
does not leave General Sheridan i'm n
very enviablc position. The left
handed compliment paid his infa-
nous "banditti" despatch and the vir-
tnal denial of Secretary nolknap's de-
spatch that "the President and all of
us approyQ al your COURSE" are not
calculated 30 clate the raider nor COM
mend the blood -thisty policy which he
sought permission to inauguratc. Sup.
portcrs of the Kellogg usurpation,
like Morton and others of that ilk, are
not little disgusted that the President
throws doubt on the legality of that
government, yet they are delighted
that he stands by the Infamous mid
night order of Durcll, though he pleads
ignorance at the time of the nature and
of the lawful authority to issue it
Finally, the message has created two
parties Oh the subject matter within
the Republican ranks, one favoring
the passage of n bill for new election,
and the other, and probably the strong
est one, favoring the prompt admission
Of Pinchback as Senator and the reoog-
milton otherwise of the Kellogg gov.
ernment. The caucus machinery will
be soon put In motion again, and
these differences settled one way or the
other.

HENRY CLEw's SECOND FAILURE

HENRY CLEw's SECOND FAILURE
The new firm of Henry Clews 81 Co.,
of New York, organized on January
., 1874, composed of Henry Clews
and Ernest Zeidler, having become
bankrupts, Mr.. Zeidler has appeared
in the United States Court of that
city as a petitioning deptor in bank
ruptcy as II member of that firm. The
liabilities are stated at $2G6, ,672 20, of
which the sums due to preferred and
secured creditors is $144, 40G 3G, leav-
ing $122 ,2G5.S4 unsecured. The ap-
parent assets, exclusive OF stocks, &c F,
pledged to the secured creditors, are
set at SIT 1863 0G, but 100000 OF
this amount is an Indebtedness of the
bankrupt firm of Henry Clews and
Theodore s. Fowlerto the new firm.
The assets of the new firm, therefore,
are shown to consist of debts due from
outside persons, 81 ,5S69. 06; personal
property, $2 500, and whatever sum
may be realized from the settlement
of the old firm under bankrupt pro
ceedings, in payment of the 100000
Mr.. Zeidler also claims that Henry

new firm in large sum. The securi-
ties to indemnify secured creditors
are mainly Western railroad bonds,
with about $l1 900 of United States
bonds.

Rules for skating.

l. Never attempt to skate in two
directions at once. This feat has
often been attempted by new be-
einners. but never successfully. II
always ends in sorrow.
2. Eat few apples for refresh
ment sake while skating, and be
sure to throw the cores on the ice,
for fast skaters to break their shins
over. Fast skaters are your natur-
al enemies, and should not be al
lowed to enjoy themselves peacea-
bly,.
3. Sit down occasionally, no
matter where-right IN the way Of
the rest of the party, if You want
to. There is no law to prevent a
new beginner from sitting when
ever he has an inclination to do so.
4. When you meet a particularly
handsome woman, try to skate on
both sides of her at once. This is
very pretty and sure TO create a
sensation.
8. Skate over all the small BOYS
at once. Knock 'em down. It
makes great finland they like II.
6. II you skate into n hole In
the ice, take it coclly. Think how
you would feel if the water was
boiling hot.
I. II your skates are too slippery
buy a new pair. Keep buying
new pairs till you find pair that
are not slippery.
8. In sitting down, do it gradu-
ally. Don't be to sudden you may
break the ice.
8. When you fall headlong, ex-
anime the straps Of your skates
very carefully before you get mp.
This will make everybody think
you fell because your skate was
loose. Beginners always do, You
know.
10. Wear heavy overcoat or
cloak till you get thoroughly warm
ed up, and then throw il off and Let
the wind cool you. This will in
sure you to a fine cold that will
last you as long as you live.
IL. Ladies, 10 passing an air hole
should scream prettily and give the
arm Of Charles Augustus q frantic
1t makes him feel his
oats in q protectional why. II
your skating partner is eligible,
and your foot is pretty, don't hest
tate to ask him to adjust your skate
straps every ten minutes. He viii
rather like it.

A girls every day toilet is a part
of her character. The maiden who
is slovenly in the morning is not
to be trusted, however fine she may
look in the evening. No matter
how humble your room, there are
eight things it should contain viz a
mirror, wash-stand, water, soap,
hair, nail and tooth brushes. These
are just as essential as your break
fast, before which you should make
good use of them. Parents who
fail to provide their children with
such appliances not only make a
great mistake, but commit sin Of
omission. Look tidy in the morn
ing, and after dinner work is over,
improve your toilet. Make It the
rule Of your lie TO "drcss up for
the afternoon. Your dress may,
or may not, be anything better
than cotton but with a ribbon, or
O flower, or some bit Of ornament,

IL. After You get so you can
skate tolerably well, skate yourself
sick. Don't he reasonable about
il; skate three or four hours
skate frantically-skate till you
can't stand up. Do this every day,
and il will lie sure TO make you
sick at last and then you may die,
and that will be an excellent thing;
it will be such an example TO the
rest of the young.

billiard room and, taking a seat,
watched the players with some in
terest. After he had remained in
the chair some time he was APP
preached by hanger-on, on the
outlook for green-horn with whom
to play to save the cost of playing.
"Hello there, old man, do you

oval, stranger, l used to prank
around little on three-cornered
table fifteen years ago, but don't
s'pose | could hit the first ball on
such a new-fangled thing" said
the old man.
"Well, I'm no player myself;
you'd beat me easy enough, know;
just take stick" replied the ac-
complished "beat." "Wal," said
the old innocent, all play just
one game to see if can scratch"
and they both "banked" for first
shot. The old man had singularly
good luck, for be got the first shot
and made run of Is points. The
other looked on in astonishment,
while the "player of fifteen years
ago" was at work, and when he
ceased and counted up, the chal-
lenger muttered an oath, took off
bis coat and went to work in earnest.
He made five points only, and the
next time the old man ran out the
game.
