BLAINE's MALICE SHOWN IN HIS
OPPosITIoN TO AMNEsTY.-On Tues
day Mr.. Bayard moved that the Senate
take up bill reported yesterday by him
from the Committee on Judiciary for the
removal of the political disabilities of
James F. Harrison, of Virginia.
Mr.. Blaine asked if the gentleman had
asked for such removal.
Mr.. Bayard replied that he had, and
that the Committee had considered and
reported favorably on the measure.
Mr.. Blaine did not object to its being
taken up.
The bill was taken up.
Mr.. Beck wished to ask why it was
necessary, at this late day, for Mr.. Blaine
10 ask such question.
He spoke for some time upon the
movements towards general amnesty
and conciliation during the past year,
and said it was disgraceful for Congress
to be "peddling out" these amnesties
now, and insisting on petitions being
fled before it could be done. He voted
for all of them, and thought the laws re-
quiring such special votes should be re-
pealed.
Mr.. Blaine did not reply to Mr.. Beck,
and the bill was passed.
Of all the proposed candidates of the
Republican party for the Presidency,
Blaine seems to be the most vindictivt
and malicious in his feelings toward thu
Southern people. General amnesty wa
recommended by,Sumner and such Radi
calls as he influenced many years ago
But ii was opposed by class Of men il
Congress who make their living an
acquire fortunes through politics; an
their opposition to amnesty is to pande
70 the envy and hate which is held b
the Northern fanatic to the public spiri
ed people of the South. There is Il
feeling of nationality in the heart {
such man as Blaine, and he is ther
fore, wholly unit for any high positio
In the councils of the ustion, much lei
to occupy the seat which has been e
nobled by some of the wIsesA and be
men the world has produced.

Our Fountain.

My father is an officer in the army,
and, when l was a small boy, was
stationed at Sitka in Alaska. The win
tiers there are not cold: but the nights
are very long, and it rains a great deal
Soon after our arrival, when we were
unpacking u boxes, we found in n
of them a long, flexible rubber gas
tube, connected with a standing gas
burner. OF course it was of no use
there, as the city of Sitka did not afford
the luxury of gas-works: so the tube
was laid aside. After a few days, when
we had ~unpacked our things, and were
beginning to be comfortable, my father
thought of a way in which he could
make use of the gas-tube, and, at the
same time, add a new ornament to our
little parlor. Getting a water-tight
barrel, he placed IL on n stand nailed to
the outside of our one. stored house,
just over the parlor- window. and just
under the water-trough; so that the
rain running from the roof would keep
the barrel filed with water. He then
fitted the upper end of the tube to a
spigot in the lower part of the barrel,
so that the water would be forced into
the tube. Then he set the gas stand on
a platform placed on the broad window
sill inside of the room, on which he
had previously put a sheet of tin, in
clining a little towards the outside Of
the house. The sash was then shut
down, leaving just room enough for the
tube to pass under it; and a landscape
painting just the width Of the window
was placed In front Of and close against
the sash. The window-shade was drawn
down to the top Of the picture; moses
from the hills, and pebbles and shells
from the beach, were laid upon the tin,
and hcaped around the stand; u minia-
ture fence was put in the foreground;
and the work was done. The valve in
the old gas burner was then opened,
and the water spouted up In n beauti-
full f%an-shaped jet, about a foot high,
and, falling in sparkling drops upon
the moss, was carried by the tin sheet
out of the window. 1t was Il charming
ornament; and though, nov and then,
a bit of dirt or moss would obstruct the
flow of the water and send a shower of
spray over the carpet, we took delight
in watching our little fountain, and
felt that even the dreary rain was

The first thing to be done is to obtain
"a very large animal, whose growls
alone are somewhat TERRIFYING, and
whose size is bound to inspire respect"
The object is to break him to fly at any
body and to "take his death, if need be,
rather than desert his MASTER" You
procure a promising puppy of vicious
strain, and you proceed Systematically to
tease him. The most effectual plan
would be to bother him at his meals,
but that would be a mistake, since it
would interfere with his digestion, and
consequently with his growth. SO you
must give him a bone some hours after
the regular repast and then proceed to
axe it from him. He will get angry
and fly ut you. Whereupon, having
equipped yourself with the toughest
leather gloves, you are to twitch his
tail and his ears, kissing at him until he
is "beyond himself with passion"
Having effectuallv soured his temper so
far, you are to lead him out to a field in
lesh, and set some stranger to trying
similar experiments. This fictitious
enemy is to blackeD his face, to crouch
down, etc., and aslthe dogis meant to lay
hold of him in a state of incipiant int
sanity, the confederate is strongly re-
commended to wear his Oldest suit Of
clothes, and to pad them, by way Of
further protection, with straw. Mean
while the growing dog is to be kept in
seclusiom and leased habitually. The
final stage of his education is to take
him out at night, to let a daring yolun-
teer glide past an ambush, by precon-
certed arrangement, and then to excite
the animal, still holding him by the
leash, Should the leash slip or break,
the mans position would be awkward.
Finally, the man Is to make n bolt for a
tree, whenthe maddened animal
Is let loose; the man by that time
ought to be safe among the branches
but he is to throw down a dummy pre-
sentiment of himself, which will be
promtly rent TO pieces. We must add
that In empl win. the dog when his
ducation has been brought to compile
ton, there would be n very fair chance
of a mishap, even if he were firmly Sc
cured In a muzzle; nor do we doubt in
the least that the umo Of such a "dog
tiend' would act as a very effectua

borhood who were aware Of his exis-

Large Personal Estates.

The odiously eccentric old Earl of
Dysart will It may be presumed, be of
some use to somebody at last, as he left
a personal estate of IS, 500, 900, the lar
gest ever left behind him by an English
peer, although it has been surpassed by
many mercantile men,. The late Duke
of C~leayland, who left over a million
sterling, comes nearest. Lord West
minister, regarded as the CrGsus par
excellence, left but 1000, 900. No En-
gllshman has yet come within $40, 900,

Mr.. Morrison, Of Forest street, (Morri-
son, Dillon & Co.. comes nearest with
$4,000 900, and, having regard to the
extent Of his land possessions, was prob
ably the wealthiest Englishman who
has ever made his own fortune. For
several years before his death he con-
ceiyed himself to be ON the verge of
poverty. lie left his eldest son a legacy
of 200, 900 sterling, the only such leg
acy on record In the London Probate
Court. 1t is a pleasant circumstance to
record that all the sons of Mr.. Brassey
and Mr.. Morrison have turned out well.
Two of the former and one of the latter
are members of Parliament. None are
in business. Mr.. sBrassey divided his
property equally between his three chill
dren (sons). Mr. Morrison left the lar
gest share to the eldest, some $3.50, 900 a
year to the next and between $50, 900
and 500, 900 a year to the other sons; to
his daughter $25O,OOO; to his widow he
left $4,000 a year and two residences.
The contents of his principl abode,
Basildon Park, were sworn for probate
duty at SIS, 900. The furniture in the
principal rooms was specially designed
for them by Sir Charles Eastlake, for
Mr.. Morrison, although he rose from
the foot of the ladder, was devoted to
art and artists, and distinguished mem
bers of the Roal Academy were con-
slant guests at his house. He lived very
handsomely, but quite without ostenta-
ton, but hislhouses were crammed with
rare and beautiful things. His second
son, MIR. Alfred Morrison, whose house
on Carlton Terrace is one of the dozen
finest in London, has inherited this taste
and spends many thousands a year in
gratifying it.
