CONGRESSIONAL VARSITY Snow.

a CONGkESolONAL NAhlbl1 ohOW
There was another breezy time ia the
house Of representatives yesterday. Il
was about the same as usua'--Jone wit
but more Of abuse and sarcasm; and the
came thing occurs almost every day,
The Republicans are sore-headed and
fractions, and the Democrats delight in
stirring them up. These exhibitions are
becoming rather monotonous, especially
where there is 9 prospect that the session
will be continued down into the shank
end Of dog days. A few of the members
only, it is true. indulge in these antics,
but they make up for want Of numbers
by extra diligence. The New York
Herald Of Monday thus takes of the
variety business:
If the scene enacted in the house Of
representatives on Saturday, in which
Kelley, of Pennsylvania, and Foster and
Garfield, Of Ohio, we're the performers,
had been played in a variety theater, IS
a burlesqus on congressional proceed
ipgs, it might have beez found entertain
ing. The gentleman who in such places
of amusement is accustomed to come
forward with q shabby hat and an old
umbrella to make a stump speech could
not possibly render himself more ridicu.
lsus than did the honorable representa-
tives who took part in Saturdays de-
bate; aud it may be useful to our variety
actors TO suggest q series Of speeches
such as appeared in yesterday Herald
as q change from the wornoHt thump-
ing of the conventional umbrella
on the wooden table. Kelley's dis.
claimer Of bringing the bundle of dirty
linen into the house to be washed; his
explanation OF the letter written by Fos-
ter, Governor Hayes congressional
representative" stating that he had
reason to believe and was free to say
that Hayes desired the return Of Mr..
Kelley" and his naive admission that
my frierd Foster letter was c~oEcocted
to answer a double purpose" might be
made irresistibly funny on the stage. So
might Fosters description Of the ar.
rsngement for a 4" surprise serenade,
to be- given to him at Philadelphia, by
the FIRE company to which Kelley had be
longed, in order that be might make an
unexpected " speech In KeIley's favor.
We commend the subject to the atteation
OF our comedy people. 1t might do very
we'll for the stage, but as an exhibition
in the house of Representatives Of q great
nation, it was simply humiliating.

Very few Of the sudden deaths
which are said to arise from diseases
of the heart do really arise from
that disease. To ascertain the real
origin of sudden deaths, expert
ments have been tried in Europe
and reported to a scientific congress
held at S~trassbourg. Sixty-six cases
of sudden death were made the
subject of a thorough post norton
examination. In those only two
we're found who had died from dis
Ease Of the heart. Nine out Of
sixty-six had died Of apoplexy,
while there we're forty-six cases Of
congestion Of the lungs-that is,
the lungs were SO full of blood that
they could not work, there not be-
ing blood enough for a quantity OF
air to enter to support life. The
causes that produce congestion Of
the lungs are cold feet, tight cloth.
ing, costive bowels, sitting still,
chilled after being warmed with
labor or rapid walking, going toe
suddenly from close, heated rooms
into the cold air, especially after
speaking, and sudden depressing
news operating on the blood. The
causes Of sudden death being known
an avoidance Of them may serve
to lengthen many valuable live
which would otherwise be lost un.
der the verdict "heart complaint.
This disease is supposed to be in
eyitable and incurable; hence, many
do not take the pains they would t
avoid sudden death if they knew i
