with the empty chair behind him, and never dis

Especial to the Tribune.
WASHINGTON, Nov. %. Of course, there is but
one explanation of Mr.. Pattersons behavior to-
day. He has had before him the choice of two al
ernstives-treachery to his party OF confinement
in the penitentiary. He has made a strike for lib
erty, and chosen the former course. 1t may be
that none of the democratic Senators are priyy to
the bargain which has been made but it is assert
ed by those who ought to be informed on the sub
ject, that no more open aud bAreiaced bargain
and sale has ever taken place in the history OF
legislative bodies.
The testimony against Senator Patterson which
has been taken by the Grand Jur. Of South Caro-
lima, which is exparte in is character is so far as
1t goes, overwhelming. A careful examination OF
it fails to show single flaw, and unless his de-
fence is much stronger than any one now supposes
his conviction upon trial is morally certain.
He expects, it is believed, as the reward for his
treachey to his party in the Senate and for his part
in delivering the control of that body to the demo-
cracy TO escape trial, or if convicted, to be re-
heved from the penalty of his crime by Executive
ciemency. low either party can expect to cany

In front of gate on Hastings Street
girl 2 or 10 years old was watching
and waiting. Ola sudden Big English,
the boot-black, turned into the street
half block below drawing a hand-sled.
At the same moment Catnip, the news
boy, turned into the street half block
above, also drawing a sled. Each one
had come to take his true love out for
an airing, and neither knew of the 9TH
er's intentions. They met at the gate,
and while they were scowling darkly at
each other the true love was wondering
how she could ride both sleds at once.

pered Big English.
"Don't tech me, ye hoss-thief!"

They pulled down their hats, spit on
their hands, and met in the shock of

slowed around and knocked true love
into a snow-drift, from which position

Our newly invented word, "bull-

He is struck all of a heap, and frantic

cludes the following by offering re-
ward for the solution, and agrees to ask
no questions:
1t is with painful and humiliating
sense of our limitations that we quote
this astonishing word. All at once, as
if it had escaped and rained down out
of some overcharged photographic
thunder-cloud, plentiful as small frogs
