HoUK's bread and butter brigade

HoUK's bread and butter brigade,
who write editorials for Gibson's pa
per, excuse his absence from the
roll-calls of the House during the last
session more than fve>sixths of his
time, on the ground that he was
" filibustering." Then he must be
the boss fllibuster of the age. But
we never heard it called by that
name before. Houk knows that his
absence, with very few exceptions,
was the result of his drunkenness.
The writer of the paragraph in Glib
sons paper know that he was drunk
drunk at Washington, drunk at
Nashville, drunk at home. Hundreds
of other men know that he was
beastly drunk. We have heard it
called by great many names, but
"fllibustering" is new one.

The New Revision.

Rev. c. H Strickland, pastor of the First
Baptist Church, preached on the new revi-
ion of the New Testament, Sunday morn
ing, to large congregation. He gave an
interesting history of the various revisions
of the Scriptures, down to the present time.
He spoke of the high character of the gen.
tlemen who have given us the new revision,
and thought that their ability and scholar
ship was such as to entitle their work to the
careful and earnest consideration of the
Christian world. He made a brief
comparison of King James revi-
sion with the new revision. and
pointed out the excellencies of the latter
His discourse was plain, pointed and very
interesting. He spoke one hour and fifteen
minutes, but his large audience gave no evi-
dence Of growing weary, and none thought
the time long. His object was to excite a
spirit of honest inquiry, and he certainly
Succeeded

IA vacation idyl, written in the Botanical
Gardens at Hamburg, Germany
1 roam afar-she still is near;
In every flower me thinks see her,
Yon patch of sky, SO deeply blue,
Reflects but her orbs' brighter hue.
All! blessed me, Tall tree above,
Bend DER me now
Thy fragrant bough
And shut me in with all my love!
Earth, thou art fair,
Yet 1 declare
The lime tree breathes not scent so sweet
AS memory of my Marguerite
The lakelet sleeps SO quiet by
It seems another cloudless sky;
And there, adown the marble steps,
Her face is imaged in its depths,
What art thou thinking, oh my fair!
Sitst thou apart
With thy lone heart,
And is my image mirrored there?
What ecstacy, if but knew
That thou art dreaming of me too /
Oh were l kneeling at thy feet,
My own, my sweet,
My Marguerite!
Old ocean cannot, will not tear
The dearer west
From my breast.
To love the loved is everywhere,
For, as the shores clasp meath the river,
Twin souls that love meet midway ever;
And, till my heart hath ceased to beat,
In every cline,
Throughout all time,
These accents will my lips repeat
Oh, she is fair. Oh, she is sweet,
None knows now sweet
My Marguerite

Portsmouth Times.1
i Word to Publishers.

1t is time that the publishers of all
well-regulated newspapers were pro-
tecting themselves from the exactions
of newspaper advertising agencies.
They usually offer the smallest prices,
and then want the best positions in
the paper. Nine out Of every ten
propositions from these houses want
their advertisements next to reading
matter, and perhaps at the top of a
column as well. Then they have a
lot Of notices accompanying the ad-
vortisement which they want placed
among reading matter, with no other
paid notice ahead Of, attached to, or
anywhere nigh about the same, with a
score of other conditions the fulfil
ment of which would require the ser
vices of an extra bookkeeper and fore
man. Publishers should refuse to ac-
cept these conditions-unless at least
fifty per cent. extra is paid. There
are but few columns next to reading
matter" unless the appearance Of the
paper is ruined by scattering the read
ing matter all through the forms
If newspaper men would refuse to ac-
cept such contracts, and require the
advertisements to take the run of the
paper, this crying evil would soon
cease. As for the Times we have
served notice on these agencies that
we will hereafter accept no such con-
tracts unless fifty per cent. advance is
paid in every case.

Seeking After Health.

Unfortunates who are seeking to
renew their health, are many. So
often have they been deceived by the
advertisements Of worthless COM
pounds, that many are discouraged,
and refuse to believe anything they
read in the papers. Therefore, the
best advertisement of really good
medicine is the reputation it has gain
ed in places where it is being sold No
other remedy ever discovered has
grown so rapidly in public favor as
that true medicinal tonic called
Browns Iron Bitters In localities
where its extraordinary merits have
become fully known and realized by
those who have been in ill-health, the
sale is unprecedented. One druggist
in our city reports the sale Of 23S bot
ties in one week. 1t is, indeed, a
wonderful, health-giving, life-saving
preparation. It is soothing and re-
freshing in its effect, and strengthens
every part of the body, and creates
healthy appetite and digestion, even
when the system is almost destroyed
by the many hurtful cathartics so
commonly used. Reader. beware! du-
ty demands that you try Browns Iron
Bltters, if your health is poor from any
cause-Enquiyer.

A Nocturnal Ramble and What Came of it.

Some genius-we suspect him to
belong to the jovial order of humanity
has said: THE day to drone and
dream, the night to learn and ramble." Z"
We do not propose to dispute this
worthy's view of the matter, but pre-
sent herewith the experience of a
Philadelphia journalist, Mr.. VIM. H.
Cunnington, 1712 North Twentieth
street, one of whose nocturnal RAM
bles he thus refers to, beginning his
narration rather peculiarly, however:
Il am not rheumatic, and have been
troubled very little with bodily pains.
Last Tuesday morning | experienced
very annoying stiffness of the neck,
which grew worse as the day wore on.
Toward evening it became very severe
and | could scarcely turn my head in
any direction. Arriving home at tea
time, it was with difficulty that |
could eat my meal. My wife wanted
to rub my neck with st. Jacobs Oil,
but | refused, saying | thought the
affliction would soon pass away. Tea
over, against the remonstrances of my
family, | left home to ramble toward
the new Chestnut-Street Opera House,
about two and a-half miles from my
residence. | started i'll the midst Of
heavy snow storm, and remained at
theatre until the close Of the perfor-
nance, although | could feel my neck
getting worse and becoming very
painful. Leaving the play the trou-
bic came to reach home. The storm
continued; the car in which | was be-
came blocked in nearly every square,
a cold current of air swept through
the car, and | did not reach my home
until toward 2 A. NJ, by which time
my neck had become absolutely rigid.
Then | consented to the use of st.
Jacobs Oil, which my wife applied
two or three times before | arose. l
continued its use that day and by
evening | was free from pain, and the
next morning | amused myself by
twisting my neck in any direction that
suited me, and not a vestige of stiff
ness remained. ."-BOStOR Herald.

A FABLE.
The Hen Convention.
IDntrnit Erne Prncs

A Fox who found hard picking in
certain neighborhood one day visited
Farmers Dog, and said:
Il have lately undergone chang,
Of heart, and | wish you to make
known the fact to your masters Fowls
They treat me as If [ was murderer
and it really hurts my feelings to SCI
them hurry into the coop at sunset
The Farmer, too, seems to distrust me
for he has made the coop so tight that
can not find a single knot-hole
What sort of way is that to treat 6
Fox who is doing his best to earn an
honest living?"
Il presume you would like to state
your case to the Fowls in person?'
observed the Dog.
That's it-that's the very idea, re-
piled the Fox. "Say to them that !
should like to meet them in Conven-
ton under the tree tomorrow at noon.
Twill then explain my feelings toward
them, and trust that the Fox and the
Fowls will hereafter live in the great
est harmony. Indeed, the only differ
ence between US is the fact that | have
no wings, and they shouldn't hold me
in suspicion on that account"
The Dog agreed to act as mediator,
and at noon next day the Fox crept
carefully through the weeds to the
rendezvous. and crouched down to
await the coming Of the Fowls.
There was presently heard a great
whirr and clatter, and two-score hens
alighted in the ranches Of the tree
over the Fox.
"The Convention will now proceed
to business" said an old Hen, as she
peered down upon the Fox.
''Just so, grinned the Fox. "Please
come down and we will proceed"
Thanks: but if it's all the same to
you we'd rather you'd come up here"
replied the Hen.
But l can't fly"
And we are poor runners.
The Fox not being able to fly up,
and the Hens refusing to fly down, the
former was skulking off, when he met
the Dog, who said:
my friend, the difference between
undergoing a change of heart and de-
string to undergo a change Of diet and
position is so obscure that many peo-
pie never stop to fish for it. As
Fox, you were respected for your cum
ming; as a hypocrite, even the old Hens
despise you"

Lazy and MOb Law.

The summary execution Of murder
ers and Of persons guilty OF other
crimes Of special atrocity, by an up
rising Of the neighbors, is the priml-
tive method, which was superseded
by the appointment Of regular tribu-
malls and Of more careful forms Of
trial. The going back to the primi-
tive method of executing justice Is
because the regular tribunals have
failed in this office. Their conduct
has been such that the community
does not have confidence that, when a
murderer falls into the hands Of the
court, Justice will be done. On the
contrary, it feels that when the mur-
derer has been caught, and is safely in
the hands Of the law, the game Of
clearing him begins, and that now
every effort of the trial and every rule
of the courts is turned against justice.
One Of the practices which destroys
the public confidence in the courts in
such cases is the postponement Of the
trial. The murderer's counsel works
for this, so that the feeling of the
community at the crime shall die
away. This feeling is only the sense
of Justice, and the object Of the delay
is to let it die. The courts easily
grant this delay, and grant it for this
immoral object. The natural sense
Of justice demands that the punish
ment of the murderer shall be swift.
To destroy it destroys most of its
moral effect, and outrages the feeling
Of the c)mmunity. In this respect
the regular tribunal fails to perform
it's Office. Delay of punishment, even
il at last it comes, Is a half defeat OF
justice.
The dilatory proceedings in a MUIR
der trial, and a conduct which seems
to perverE the tribunal into a process
to clear the guilty, help to destroy
public confidence. The rule that be:
fore the law the person shall be helc
innocent until he IS proved gui ty, j:
perverted to the rule that the clearly
guilty shall be allowed every chance
for loophole of escape. Not thu
