THE PAPER CANOE Traveller The fol-

received by egentleman in Charleston
from Mr.. n. II. bishop, who is now in
the Suwance River, Florida:
'1The length of the crooked Suwan-c,
and u few miles of piney wood lands,
only, are between me and the Gulf Of
Me1ico-the end of my long journey
from the great Northern Gulf of st.
Lawrence. After leaving your hospita-
bio city, experienced stormy weather
at many points along the route, which
made canoe travelling somewhat tedious.
All the people along the sounds treated
me with great kinilness-with the same
hospitality so characteristic of Southern
citizens. Many amusing incidents oc-
notony Of the journey. While the canoe
was perched upon drawing-room table,
in the house of friend, one fine Sunday
morning, two Irishmen approached the
house and inquired for the canoe
traveller. They desired to see the boat,
and after critically examining it, one man
slowly remarked to the other: You may
talk about old times; they were not like
these days. 1t is these times that pro-
duces great men. What were Your
travellers 100 years ago? There WAS Ro-
binson Crusoe; to be sure he was great
traveller for his times. The same inter
ruptod the other, who went to the South
Sea- Islands and settled there?' The

Well, he did very we'll for those days,
but it takes these times to make g,:eat

the sounds. Christopher Columbus
would never have thought of doing such
q thing in paper boat. Then there's
Boynton, the great swimmer, the same
who jumped into the sen. and swan
fifteen mile to ould Ireland. Did Your
ancients ever do the like O that? He's
another great traveller. It's these times
that makes such men, And I knows,

The pillars of st. Peters (Catholic) were
twined with evergreens, and across the
middle aisle was suspended an immense

was ablaze with wax candles, and the ser

were performed by the good priest, Rev.

CIVIL RIGHTS IN THE CApIToL.-A spc-
cinl despatch to the Philadelphia Times,
dated Washington, D. c., March 81, says
The Civil Rights Bill has come home to
the United States Senate in most unex-
pected manner Attached to the cham
ber for the use of the members, is a first
class barber-shop. tho artists in which
are paid by the Government, and pro-
vided at its expense with m exquisite
stock of toilet articles. The new colored
Senator from Mississippi, (Bruce,) who
is full-blooded negro, availed himself
of this tonsorial perquisite the second
day after he was sworn in, and has been
since then an occupant Of one of the
chairs for at least an hour every day. AS
soon as he arrives in the morning, he has
his hair nicely curled by his colored
friends, and before he leaves in the after
noon, he gets fixed up again for dinner.
Some of the more fastidious Senators
who visited the place a few mornings
ago, were astounded at the unusual sight
Of negro in the Senatorial barber-shop,
the combs and brushes with which they
were accustomed to be adorned deity
flying through his kinky hair and over
his swarthy face. The result is, they
have since given the Senate barber-shop
a wide berth, and held several indigna-
ton meetings on the subject.
