Humorous OrntOry.

Statesmen, like scholars, when they grad
uate and enter upon the duties and respon-
sibilities of active life, are very liable to
bear with them and exhibit in a very de-
cided manner the peculiar impress of the
school at which they were educated. The
recent discussion of the Colorado election
case in the House brought Mr.. HARRISON,
of Illinois, to the front with a fund of hu-
NOR, trope and figure, which stamped his
intellectual training and association as un-
mistakably as the eagle is impressed upon
our gold coin. His effort on Wednesday is
richly loaded with metaphor that smells
rank of the school of chance. His exordium
was made up chiefly of lucid and no doubt
very intelligent history Of the game OF
'kenow-whatever that is-which he Illus
trates as game of "heads win and tails you
lose" His argument is founded upon the
propriety of using none other than " q
straight pack of cards in the game. He
then expatiates upon the theme of holding
four kings and a knave and bowie knife,
and points to the White House with the
graceful remark, ave have no knave sitting
at the other end of the Avenue, nor have we
bowie knife over there on Arsenal Hill.
II vulgarity is wit, then his argument is
very funny and he is candidate for i'm
mortality as humorist.
In his peroration Mr.. HARRISON pays his
respects to Sweet Mother Eve" beneath
'the bending bough of the primal apple
tree rambles through the 6owery land oI
the South, talks of ''the sublimest functions
of the eternal jehovah treats of "soner
saults" and legal prestidigitators," and
then gently drops into the society of TRAY
Blanche, Sweetheart, and all the little dogs,
where he appears to be perfectly at home
A perusal of this ridiculous effort leads L
the thought that if clown and his stall
Jokes was all of circus, how few woul'
patronize it's hard seats.
II should be recollected, however, tina
Mr.. HARRISON represents city which Ia
history. 1t is said that once upon tim
man died there, and his spirit winged it
way to Paradise, where ST. PETER is en-
trusted with the keys and vigils of its por
tails With the assurance of this living rep
resentative he demanded admission, wheI

SUPPOSE that during the riots last summer a
mob had seized harbor forts and trained the
guns on the coast cities. Suppose they had
seized arsenals and captured arms for thou
sands of desperate men. The report of Gen.
BESET Chief OF Ordnance, shows that these
things were possible. Our forts and arsenals
are so poorly guarded that these could be read
lily captured. Before the army is reduced We
should bo certain that it is large enough for
efficient and necessary service.

broken down in mind and body, In conse-
quence of this condition of His Holiness,

conclave have already chosen a new Pope,

Church Is said to be Cardinal PANELrASco.
He is seventy years of age, and does not seem
to have made much of a mark. If this rumor
proves true, 1t will be a source of great disap-
pointmeut to the French, who have expected

A SPECIAL DISPATCH from Toronto Canada,
announces that SITTING BULL and his tribe
will return to their old camp on Wood Noun
tain, aud that 1t is probable settlement will
be found them on tho Siouxis River, in tho
Dirt Hill region. This is good news. 1t Is
hoped that our Canadian friends will take tho
entire Indian race within their embrace.
Would 1t not be q good way to forever settle
our vexed Indian question? 1t seems that the
Canadian Indians are delighted at the pros
pect of having s. b. & Co. among them. Col.
MCLEOD and Major WALSH, of the Canadian
army, are to hold a conference with s. BULL
tomorrow, and then the question Of the future
relations between the Sioux and the Canadians
Is to be settled. 1t is thought that the SIT
TING BULL Sioux will settle down quietly with
the Sioux who went to Canada from Mime.
sofa in 1862 If this is accomplished, it will
certainly be peaceful victory. There is one
thing, however, that looks bad This Toronto
dispatch says that Major WALSH is of opinion
that there will be no more trouble until the
Sioux feel themselves strong enough to begin
another campaign-probably in the sprinc. II
should be distinctly understood between oul
Government and that Of Canada that IL oui
Indians are to emigrate to the Canadian sol

FUNNY THINGS do happen in politics as

S. SUNSET Cox, the renowned wit, is losing
caste with the Democrats. The New York
ITor'd, noticing Mr.. Cox's reference to the
President as Gov. HAYES" says This is
certainly not very witty; it is certainly not
likely to be very etlective and if it were, Mr..
HAYES might plead as an offset the fact that
when, on the 1ith of last March, Mr.. Cox
wrote to him to ask the appointment of Mr.

ACCORDING TO THE PRINCIPLE

that there should be honor among thieves. Stanley
Matthews should have stood, thr u yh thick and
thin, by Packard, for he had been party to the
organization and contamination Of the damnable
and gigantic fraud on which Packard based his
pretensions. But he did not stand by him. When
Il became evident that To stand by Packard would
be TO endanger the fraudulent pretensions of
Hayes he did not hesitate TO throw Packard and
his gang of bogus Legislators officials and police
men overheard, and consent to the establishment
of the Nichols government. He was the friend,
chief adviser and confidential counselor of Mr..
Hayes. and Mr.. Hayes recognlzed the Nichols gov
elected Judge SpOford to the United states Senate
and that recognition was given before Judge
SpOfiOrd was elected. There was every reason ~
suppose therefore, that Mr.. Matthews, understand
ing the indeiens,ble right of Louisiana to repre-
sentaton In the Federal Senate, would vote To seat
the Senator from this State elected by the Legis-
lature recognized by tho President, acting on his
counsel and advice.
