POLITICAL On DIT,

VIII probably be repeated over and over again
until time ceases. By the dispatches from
Washington, it seems Pit. now wants to put
all the responsibility of calling the extra ses-
sion on the unfortunate members of the Con-
gresslonal Committee. Mr.. Wheeler has
stated that Kellogg was the sole arb;ter of
this question: but Pitt seems to want to dodge
this question, and so he sends back the impu-
tahon with scorn.
1t is somewhat laughable to learn that the
Governor Of o State must await the pleasure
OF Congress man when he desires to have a
sess on Of the legislative branch of the gov
eminent If this doctrine held good all over
the country, it would be just as well for the
President to take the whole matter in his
hands and save the petty annoyance occasioned
by governors calling sevarately their houses
! OF assembly.

One would think the mission of the Re-
turning Board had terminated after their
manifest success in their late engagement
here, but now it turns out that although the
company has dissolved the stars are still in
the business. Now rumor has it that Mr..
Louis Kenner, who earned such reputation
in his dark seance at the State House. when
he played such curious tricks with the cleo
ton returns, is about leaving for Washington
City, to see that The Congressional Committee
does not tampor with them now.
The returns have been sent b. express, and
he follows closely in their wake. Whether be
will as success. III IN closing tho eyes OF Massrs

Rurch and Lewis, however. are tie hight
men in the right place; they will be found
equal to any emergency.

Like Banquo's Restless ghost, Pinch
VIII not down. Echoing from beneath
the door Of the Senate Chamber, in the lugu-
brious tones of hope deferred. rises the Sene-
ganlbiin accents, "Swear swear" but from
presents indications the Senate don't propose
to swear him in. at least just yet. His late
success at poker has inclined him to the belief
that the same persistency will accom- plish his
object in Congress. SO he puts on bold face
when he holds only one pair and assumes all
the dignity of man with straight flush.
Pitt doesn't seem to care much whether his
ally goes in or not. He is unusually silent
on the subject-for. what reason he only
can tell. Pinch knows, and Pitt knows he |
knows it, that the de .facto wants to get
character here, and if by compromise or the |
sacrifice of Pinch he can get one he will do it. |
So the willy gent familiar with ali the tricks of |
the game is determined to 60 it on his own |
hook
Will He Find Ite
He was completely tagged out. He had
been on his travels for about ten days, and |
judging from his long stride, he must have
been near relation to the Wandering Jew.
He said his mission was to find out all those
was kind angel on a visit to earth just now,
and that she had left promiscuously around,
divers benefits, entrusted to her by caucus,
and he wanted his share of them. A num-
Der of wealthy and respected friends had
told him he was millionaire, since an
adjustment had been made, aud he
wanted to see his money. He knew
they had full knowledge of the whole
case and would not deceive him. He in
loose, rambling way inquired whether we still
had the metropolitan law the election law,
the park tax the school statute and sundry
other little jokes perpetrated by our rulers,
and smiled beneficent smile when he
learned that quite number of people stated
that perhaps, probably, some time, we would
lose these sources of amusement, for Pitt had
solemnly asserted that he was in favor of
having a good government here. The poor
I'D man darted down the street after asking
he direction Of the State House, and we have
not seen him since. Will some one tell him
where to find these treasures of compromise ?
On the Boulevard.
The degree of equanimity displayed on our
horoughfares, Sunday, by the several men,
,ers of Kellogg's crowd, was astonishing.
They gleefully displayed plethoric pocket :,
books, and with wink and nod whispered !.
per diem " to their compalres, and elevated
heir heads in the fulness of their self-admi-
alton. They apparently were happy, for il is :
lot often they take in such haul, and nat '
rally they felt overjoyed. No taxes to pay,
heir little bills settled by services rendered, L
nd but trifling amount OF debts incurred

erhaps as jolly a crowd as Sam Weller ever
aw in tap-room.
