A Marvellous jug.

! In the years agone, when the old Ma
rine Barracks were over on the hillside,
outside OF the Navy Yard, in Brooklyn,
n. Y, some OF the soldiers, one cold,
stormy day, thought what a grand thing
it would be to brew whisky punch,
hot aud strong, i'll honor of Il squad who
had been detached, and were upon the
following day to 90 on board ship tor the
Brazilian station. There was money
enough TO pay for the whiskey-to pay
Tor a barrel OF it-but how TO get it into
the barracks, that was the question.
Never Il man came in from liberty with
out being OverLauled by the Sergeant of
the Guard from top TO toe; and If Order
ly Sergeant Moore CHANGED to be at hand,
he was pretty sure TO take hand in the
examination. Not phial as large as a
finger could be hidden from those sharp
eyes and sharper fingers.
AT length up spoke Tim Murphy. Said
he:
Make MP the money. boys, and I'll 90
out and bring in the whisky. I'm down
tor liberty to-day"
Tim Was not the man to boast emptily,
and when he had seriously declared that
he was in earnest, the money was made
Wy CioVSi W puiCiiisC t"O Q'tdI 10 VI
whisky and a jug-and in due time he
went out. sH.E
1t was in the edge of the evening, or
just at dusk, that Tim came back. openly
swinging large jug in his hand. Ar
rived in the gGard-hOuse. both the Ser
geaIt of the Guard and Sergeant Moore
took him i'm hand for examination.
What have you got In that jug?"
"Molasses. SIR.
Lets see.' srf
They took the jug, and pulled out the
cork, and smellcd. lie certainly smellel
like molasses. Then they procured "a
stick. and poked it down into the big
bellied earthen ciuet, and. upon pulling
IL out something like molasses dripped
from its end. They both tasted and were
satisfied; and Tim was told TO pass on
and he did pass OH, jug in hand.
Arrived in tie barrack room, those in
the secret gathered around. He led
them into the rear apartment where the
bedding was stored. and closed the door.
Then he called for tin dipper. and a
good sized ever. Taking the cork from
the nozzle, Tim tipped up the jug over
the tin iipper, and presently. in the
midst of slowly dripping treakle, out
dropped a leaden bullet with strong
cord attached. BY means of this line he
drew up the neck of a bladder, and when
the mOlasses hal been emptied out, per-
haps a pint of it. he slipped the cord
from the neck of the bladder and poured
forth considerably more than two quarts
of fine old MonongoIlela whisky.
A marvellous Jug, truly.

CONGRESSIONAL.
WASHINGTON, May 9.
SENATE.

Mr.. Davis, of Illinois, called up Senate
bill to provide tor the distribution Of
awards made under the convention be-
tween the United States Of America and
Mexico, and which was concluded on the
4th Of July, 1868.
A discussion ensued IN regard TO GER
tain alleged fraudulent claims.
MIR. Elmunds, chairman of the Judi
ciary Committee, said there were some
things in possession OF the committee in
regard to these claims which the Senate
should know, and moved that the doors
be closed
The motion was agreed to, and the
doors were closes for secret legislative
business.
During the secret session, the Mexican
award bill was discussed, amended and
passed. When the doors were reopened
the consideration Of the Indian Appro-
priation bill was resLmed.
Various unimportant amendments
were agreed to, and the bill having been
considered in the Conmit.e2 ot tPe
Whole was reported TO the Senate. The
amendments made in the committee were
concurred in, and the bill was read a
third time and passed.
The Senate then, oa motion of Mr..
Thurman took up the bill TO repeal the
bankrupt act.
MIR. Thurman in referring to the amend
ment submitted by him when the bill
was last before the Senate, so as to pro
vide that the repeal shall take effect OF
the first OF September next, said ne sub
miited it as compromise between those
who favored January !, 1879, the time
now named in the bill and these Ii favor
of the repeal taking effect upon the pass
ave OF the act. Should his amendment
be defeated be would then move to insert
August |, 1878. He did not think the
people Of this country were fairly notified
Of the fac. tha: the bill would berepealed
Immediately. 1t had been in the judi
cisrv Committee long time, and they
were not prepared for repesI. lie though,
it best to allow it TO remain IL force till
September. Some consideration was due
the men who were indebted, and Congress
should not in hot haste put an end toth's
law at once.
Mr.. Beck SAID the bill to repeal the
bsnkrupt law immediately had passed
the House by an overwhelming majority,
and at another time it passed the Senate
by an overwhelming majority. Tao
Senator from Ohio Mr.. Thurman
seemed to have changed his tactics, snd
now he wanted 10 give the people four
months notice of repeal. The country
wss not in q condition to stand this sort
of thing. If it was good thing to re.
peal the bankrupt law, it was good
thing to have its repeal take efec: imme'
distelv. Let the question be settled
Nothing so derauged the business CT the
country as uncertainty.
Mr.. White favored absolute snd lmmc-
date repeal of the law.
Pending discussion Mr.. Anthony NOV
ed that when the Senate adjourn today,
it be to meet Monday next. Rejected
yeas, I9; nays, 81.
Mr.. Thurman urged the Senate to re-
main in session and finish the bill to re
PEAL the bankrupt law to-day. He had
| no doubt but that it could be finished II

BABE YOUR HEADS, GIRLS.
No BOnnets Are 10 Be Worn at the
Cincinnati Festival.
Chicago Times.


Cincinnati has shown considerable
good sense in requiring that ladies shall
remove their hats and bonnets during the
performances of the approaching musical
Festival. Should the practical fashion
thus set by compulsion, survive the occs-
sion which initiates it, mankind, as well
as womankind, will thank Cincinnati and
remember her triennial music with graft
tude. For of ali the devices which the
French demi monde has contrlved to make
the feminine form odiously conspicuous -
robbiDg a woman's head OF It's shape
illness, while srtihcially elevatlng
her stature to fantastic height,
by the sit of pyramids OF ribbons,
and mountains of feathers and hills OF
flowers, with birds and buckles and
5ijouterie to produce q Pelion OF effect
upon an Ossa of msterial-the bonnet OF
the period Is the most detestable, un-
graceful, unbecoming and altogether IN
tolerabie. There is no good reason why
women should carry such bizarre compo-
sitlons at any time or under any clrcum-
stances: and there is every reason why
they should not wesT them at lectures
or concerts, when they obstruct the view
and distract the attention OF the more
civilized and refined portion of an audi
ence. The rule ought to become general
throughout enlightened communities
that no person shall have the privilege
of sttiring himself or herself IN manner
calculated to interfere with the enjoy
mept of others.

Partial Suspension OF work on the
CTVd ~. Railroad.
St ClairsviIle Chronicle,

st. ClairsviIle Chronicle.
Much of the light work on the Tusca'
rswss Valley railroad has been suspend
ed for the present, and many OF the men
discharged. Small forces will continue
on the heavy cuts, and full complement
of men will be kept at the several tun'
nels, which will be pushed forward to
completion as rapidly as possible. 1t Is
urged as reason for pursuing this course
that the entire rosd-bed exclusive OF the
tunnels can be completed within sixty
dsys. and that It will require net less than
seven or eight months to finish the tur-
uels; that there will be nothing gained
by completing the remainder Of the line
80 long in advance of the time when II
can be made of practical utility, but on
the contrary loss will accrue on interest
expended, besides the rains Of summer
would undo much Of the work already
done. The Tuscsrswss mansgers are
mer of sRgscity, and we doubt not t6at
their course in this regard is dictated by
sound judgment.
