A congressman VINO Can't Sleep.

washington Correspondence Philadelphia Timcs-l
Some strange stories are told OF Hewitt,
which would be very. amusing il they did
not relate 10 his malady, Insomnia. It is
probable he sleeps fewer hours than any
man in America. He is gradually dying
for want OF sleep. One year he had quar-
ters near Weicker's, and he was driven
wild, or imagined he was, by the early
Growing Of q cocS. He had complained OF
it for some time, but the cock crowed all
the same. Finally, in a fit OF desperation, be
told Wecker's colored man, John, that be
would be shot il he could stand it any long
er. and he would give S5 for that ROSTERS
head. John is thrifty lad OF few words.
He left the threatening presence at once and
sought the owner OF the cock. lie had no
difficulty in buying the fowl for seyenty-fve
cents. and the wringing Of his neck was
quick work. He placed the head upon O
salver, like John the Baptist's, and pre-
sented himself before the congressman, sal
yer in hand. This made Hewitt laugh, but
he paid the SIS. John next sold the dead
cock to Mr.. Welcker for fifty cents, and
cleared $40 for the mornings Work. Last
winter MIR. Hewitt occupied quarters lntne
house where Mr.. Fish lived during MS
whole term as Secretary OF state. some
time DGCOrG Tue SSSSlOh NC sSAiS hiS oNtS
TO engage quarters. Money was no OBJECT,
and The man. obedient to his instruc-
tions, hired not only rooms for Mr.;
Hewitt's own use. but those all around
them and above them. These he kept idle
in order to prevent others getting tnem and
using them. The noise OF anybody walking
disturbed him greatly, and BY hiring all the
rooms about him be was sure OF being rea-
sonably quiet. Th1s, having longer purse
than Senator Conkiing, he hired the apart
,nents that the latter had previously oceu.
pied, and, intended to occupy again. and
that created an in-fee2ing for awhile. Mr.
Hewitt owns great many houses, but he
can sleep In none Of them. Sometimes he
win fancy he can sleep at certain place.
Heat once buys or builds a house there,
.butthe voice that followed the Wandering
jew. s. &c on! go ont" continues TO pnr.
sue him. He is merely waiting for the
great hereafter, where there is rest for the
weary. .'. -

American Beauty I'm France.

From the Baltimore Gazette, Paris Letter.
II ones eyes are dazzlcd at any Of the
official balls at Paris by sudden vision Of
loyellness. be sure that the vision aforesaid
has come straight across the Atlantic. Now,
our girls at home are prettler than HinEs
and peaches, but once let them come 20
Paris, and LET their natural taste IN dress
receive the finishing touches OF Paflslan
style, and the result is-well, 1t is just be.
widering. And it is really amusing, II
sometimes little annoying, TO note the sem
sation that one of our radiant damsels
will create in any place Of public re-
sort. A lady friend OF mine, With her
husband, took little American beauty to
that quiet and strictly moral theatre, opera
Comique, few nights ago. The young lady
was quietly though stylishly dressed, and
was q perfectly well-hred and modest-man-
nered girl, but when the party went out 10
promenade in the foyer between the acts, rs
is the custom here, the people literally
walked round and round the dazzling little
AmeTIcaine, gazing at her in open-eyed as
tonishment and admiration. Yet she was
simply a very pretty little brunette, with
a complexion whose cream and noses
owed none Of their lustrei to pearl
powder or paint. So il suggestion
OF mine, made before the exhibition was

OF portraits OF its famous belics-I tiSW
that taat exhibit would have proved the
most popular one in the Champ de Mats.

shown there OF oar fair danes and damseas.
There is indeed one of Miss Howe (tae

poetess), in rhe American art depart
ment, bsat the painting hardly does

In the Italian art department the por-
trait OF Miss Emile Schanmberg, OF Phila-

bas admirably reproduced the singular grace
aud refinement .ef the original-ano light
task, by the way. to fudge from the difficulty

five sermons on the Eternal and Invisible

coIlate and compare the various texts OF
Scripture bearing OH these subjects and to

sonablc aud orthodox inferenccs.' The dis:
course on the article in the Apostles creed
was devoted. after an appropriate exordium.

repor. OF commissioners appointed some
time ago to examine the condition OF books,
papers, and records in the clerks Office OF
the ChancerT Court. He next spoke OF the
uncertainty OF the occupancy OF the present
site OF the city ball; OF the purpose Of the
Northern Methodist Church, which Owls
the LOT, to sell and layest the money. .>
He concluded his remarks by an urgent
and practical presentation Of the case, as to
the time we should commence the erection
OF Ia city hail; that the present time is the
time to commence no one would deny. He
referred 10 the depressed state CT the price
OF labor and material. There was another
consideration. He did not believe that there
was eyera body OF men in the Council better
able, purer, or more interested in the cits's
interest, than the present Council, TO under
take So important matter. Could any one
say that eight Years heUce we would have
such 4 Council? He did rot believe that
there was man in the Council who is not
actuated by pure desire to advance the
citg's interest. Can there, then, be q more
arlspiciouS moment 10 commence the work,
considering that fact?
He next referred to the sodsenti 1t would
be to the mechanics and artisans OF our city
to commence such work; OF the steps that
should be taken towards its construction,
winding up with an appropriate reference
to the means (recuniary) OF constructing
the building, ard OF the solemn RESPONSE
-bility resting on the Council to place the
vast and valuable papers OF the city in u
safe and secure building.
The resolution was adopted.

TIE KERRY Cow AT THE THEATRE.-D"-
spite the opposition OF the circus, large
audience assembled last night to witness
the first presentation Of the Kerry Cow.
To say that they were delighted but family
expresses their condition. They laughed
and applauded from the beginning to the
end OF the play, and in the last act. where
the carrier-doves bring the news OF the
race, which is to decide the fate OF the
hero, the excitement was 50 great that the
dialogue Of the drama could not be heard.
The Kerry Cow is Il charming dramatic
picture, with several original features, and
is given by Mr.. Murphy's company with
splendid effect. The scene OF the black
smiths iorge-introducing Il live horse i'm
which Mr.. Murphy makes horseshoe and
shoes The racer, was one Of the most realiS-
tic ever given on tie Richmond stage. The
entire company were eXcellcnt-notab.y
Mr.. Martin aS O'Driye and the Misses
Fletcher and Lawrence. Of Mr.. MURPHY
il is a pleasure to write rs brilliant Irish
comedian, who acts with taste ana eIcct,
and whose singing is far above the average.
As Dan. O'Hara, the honest village b'ack-
smith, he carried the hearts OF the audience
with him, and more than justified the eulo-
ciumS O; the eastern press.
The Kerry Cow will Ec repeated tonight
for the last time. and if the house is not
