Ladies In the Gallery.

A Washington correspondent says: 1.-THE
eloquence of Senator Conkling and the
saturnalia of the nocturnal sessions Of the
House have attracted large numbers of
ladies to the galleries during the week
drawing to close. For some time after
Congress commenced its deliberations no
ladies were admitted to hear them. But
when the famous John Jay treaty with
Great Britain was brought home for ratiti.
cation the ladies expressed desire to hear
the debates in the House on the appropria-
ton necessary to carry it into effect. Mrs.
Langd0n, the wife Of member Of Congress
from New Hampshire, one day expressed
her regret to Mr.. Apes, of Massachusetts,,
that she could not hear speech which it
was known that he was to make the next
day. He gallantly invited her to come,
and by little personal entreaty silenced
one or two who were disposed to object. 60
that che and party of female friends were |
permitted to occupy seats in the gallery.
Since then ladies have been regular attend !
,nts upon the debates, some taking their
,rochet work to amuse them during routine
BUSINESS, and nearly all going down to the
unch rooms under congressional escort.

A New Grass.

After General Sherman made his march to
the sea. all in the wide track of vase and
desolation that he made with the tramp of
his footmen and the iron feet of his cavalry
there sprung up new and unknown grass
from the soil, which the farmers called
'.Sherman clover" 1t would grow up in
the most unexpected places, and it is said
would root out Bermuda grass; and as a
strange similarity, we now hear that after
the Franco Prussian war of 1901, in many
districts of France new vegetation eprang
up, evidently the result of the invasion. II
was believed that this vegetation would be.
come acclimatized, but very few of the
species introduced in this way appear likely
to continue to flourish. In the Department.
of Loir and LOir-et Cher, of 1861 German
species, at least one-half have already dis.
