fall as they profess to be just now over
his action.
1t is persistently claimed that Con-
gress will adjourn at an early date, and
that the appropriation bills are in such
a state of forwardness as to permit the
solons to perigrinate homeward about
June l. But we are SO skeptical on
this point that we feel positive that
July 4 will find the Capital, ,ss full of
Senators and Members as it is to-day.
The presidential conventions will af-
ford food for at least three weeks of
buncombe speeches, and then a few
days more will be requisite for the con-
sideration and passage of the appropri-
alton bills. 1t is an utter impossibility
to induce Congress to dispose of busi
ness as the days come and go. The
passing time belongs to buncombe mat
ters, and the last three weeks to the
transaction of real business which
should have been disposed of weeks or
months before, hence our belief that
the 46th Congress will not prove an
exception to its predecessors by leaving
prior to our summer heats, which here
tofore have been necessary to get them
to go to their homes.

Vecetine is Sol' by all Druggists

DELICATE surgical operation was per-
formed few days ago by Drs. Dickerson
and STARK, of the Surgical Institute, Kansas
City, which, for the success attending ii. we
consider decidedly worthy of notice. The
patient was Willie Reed, son of Nathaniel
Reed, of Douglas, Butler county. Kansas.
The lad had for two years past been afflicted
with diseased jaw bone, which, in connec-
ton with the tinkering of unskilled prac-
titioners, had grown so very bad as to en-
danger the life of the child. Hearing of
the remarkable cures by Drs Dickerson and
Stark, the child was brought to this city
and placed under their charge. Two weeks
ago the little fellow was subjected to the
knife. and the lower jaw was taken out, the
operation taking about twenty minutes.
The incision was made at point near the
tip of the ear, and extended to midway the
chin. The jaw-bone was disarticulated and
removed. In per orming this operation the
surgeon was compelled to cut around and
close to the internal maxilary and external
carotid arteries, to have cut either of which
would have produced death. This opera
ton is one which only the most skilled
surgeons attempt.
The patient is now rapidly recovering,
and will soon be as sound as ever, with the
exception of having less jaw than nature
designed he should have. The gentlemen
performing the operation also successfully
cure hip-joint diseases, spinal complaint
and straighten club feet, and are so success
full i'll all they undertake that we feel a
pride in knowing that our city has an insti-
tuition presided over ty such skilled gen.

Her Arms Around Him.

The news OF Mrs. Christiancy's state.
ment about her husband has evidently
travelled very rapidly to Peru, as the
minister is already beginning to inun.
date departments with statements con,
cerning his wife, and how she came to
leave Peru without aid from him. He
says that when his wife came on to him
in Peru she was under the protection OF
a Mr.. George liaight, an American resi-.
dent in Peru. Haight is man of fami-
ly. lie took fancy TO Mrs. Christian
cy and paid her great deal of atten-
tion. The minister AYERS that Haight
came too often to the legation, and that
he was altogether too devoted TO his
wife. He acknowledges that he did have
scene with his wife, but it was occa-
stoned by his coming into his saloon one
afternoon suddenly and finding his wife
in Haight's arms. Another scene that
he had with his wife was upon the dis
covery of letter written to her by DR..
Victor Christiancy, now in Leaven-
worth, Kan, in which the doctor ex-
pressed himself more ardently than a
stepson should. Mrs. Chrstiancy, in re-
ply TO this, says il is true Mr.. Christian
cy charged her with being in Haights
arms, but that it only arose from his ex-
treme jealousy. Haight was sitting talk
ing with her in the legation parlor.
They were at round table, Mrs.
Chrstiancy reached across his arm for a
book, excusing herself as she did SO. At
this juncture the minister came in, and,
as she SAYS, the memorable knock-down
scene took place. The DR.. Victor letter
she admits; but as it also contains ref
erence to the Chandler bargain and the
money paid to Christicncy, she does not
think that letter will be brought for
ward very prominently in the case.
Thal DR.. Victor professed great ad-
miration for her is true, but that she
has ever encouraged him is denied. She
says that her relations with Mr.. Haight
will bear the closest scrutiny. She com
plains that Minister Christiancy, when
he sent for her TO come to Peru, did not
furnish her any travelling companion,
not even a maid. A Spanlard on board
the steamer annoyed her very much by
his insolent attention, and Mr.. Haight,
Il gentleman vouched for by the cap
tam, was the means of protecting her
from the troublesome Spaniard. Minis
ter Christiancy, at the end of the yoy-
age, thanked Mr.. Haight for what he
had done, and cordially invited him to
the legation.

the Centennial Grafton delivered by him
on the Fourth OF July, 1876, in Music
Hall, Boston. exhibited to the audience
there gathered the writing-desk upon
which the Declaration of Independence
was written mi the thoughts suggested
bv this interesting historical relic formed
one of the most eloquent passages of his
oratlon. He concluded his alluson to
this desk with these words:
"Long may it find its appropriate and
appreciating ownership in the success
siye generations of family in which the
blood of Virginia and Massachusetts, is
80 auspiciously commingled. Should it
ii the lapse of years ever pass from the
hands of those to whom il will be so
precious an heirloom, it could only have
its fit and final place among the choicest
and most cherished treasures of the ma
ton, with whose title deeds of indepcnd-
ence it is 80 proudly associated"
, This evening the Hon. Robert &. Win
throp, who is now in Washington, took
the occasion of call at the Executive
Mansion to deliver personally to the
PRESIDENT, as HlIt 10 lllc l nlted states,
the little mahogany desk on which Mr..
Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Inde-
pcndence. 1t was presented in the
name OF the children of the late Mr.
Joseph Coolidge of Boston, to who it
was given by Jeiit rson himself in 1925,
whose granddaughter Mr.. Coolidge had
married, and has an autograph inscrip-
iion as follows:
Thomas Jefferson gives this writing
desk to Joseph Coolidge, Jr., as a memo
rial of his affection. 1t was made from
Il drawing of his own by Ben Randall,
cabinet-maker, of Philadelphia, with
whom he first lodged on his arrival in
that city in May, l776, and Is the identic-
al one on which he wrote the Decara
ton of Independence. Politics as well
rs religion has its superstitlons. These,
gaining strength with time, may one day
give imaginary value to this relic for Its
association with the birth of the great
charter of our independence"
II is probable that this desk will be
deposited in the tire-proof library of the
State Department, where are kept the
original draft of the Declaration. written
on this desk, and the engrossed copy
which was signed by the members Of
the continental congress.
The Osceola times., 1880-06-05

the evil influence Of such an unnatural
condition of things FAR outweighs this
doubtful good. Example leads to uni
versal imitation. The millionaire who
ostentatiously orders priceless Johannls-
berger at his club will be faithfully,
though remotely, initiated by somebody
who is very far from being millionaire.
He was well-intentioned Cresus, who,
hearing one of the jeunesst dOrree propose
a great piece OF exravagance, promptly
said: II can not afford to join in it,"
But aside from the malign influence of
example, the vulgar prodigality of the
time is destroying all the finer praces of
life. Ostentation and display are fatal
to the social virtues. There can be no
sweet home life, no sacred domesucity,
no rational comfort, in family which
has once been invaded by the desire to
shine, and outshine, in society. When
the demon OF social disconlent comes in
at the door of brown-stone front, all
the better angels of our nature fly out of
the attic windows. The grace and
beauty of life are gone forever.

AlligatOrs Hatched by u Hen.
New Orleans Times.

A lady residing at Cow Island, in
Louisiana, and wishing to set hen,
went inte the field adjoining her resi-
dence, where some of her chickens had
been laying" and procured some seven
teen eggs and placed them under the
hen. When in the course of human
events" the chickens were hatched, 10
and behold, there came forth four small
sized alligators. 1t is supposed that al
ligators from an adjoining marsh had
deposited their eggs in the field, and she,
not knowing the difference, placed them
under the hen. And, what is more
strange, the young alligators follow the
mother around the premises, as happy
as Colorado beetle in a potato patch.
