"why are We herei" was the opening
remark .of O st. Louis clergyman last
Sunday. And not one woman rose up
aud honestly answered that she was
there TO show her good clothes. nor did
a man get upon his feet and say that
hs was there 80 the people would think
he was q moral man and trust him IN
business matters. That's the way 81.
Louis folks fail to come to the scratch.

what n Rcndjuster Told Our New
ReDOrfer.

see" said The CRITICS new reporter
to a prominent s<Virginia Readjustor whom
he met ut the Metropolitan Hotel this
morning, that you have Mt last converted
Congressman Jorgensen to Readjustcrism.
"Oh yes we whipped Jorgensen into
the traces. He abused us like pick pockets
for several months, but we read the riot act
to him and gave him to understand that if
he did not support our ticket, in tho event
of the success of the Rcadjusters he
would have u warm time when he comes
before the next nominating convention"
Have the Readjusters promised to sup
port him for denomination ?" asked the
inquisitivc CRITIC.
"Now," said the Virginian, "You are
asking too much"
But put in the reporter, "What could
have caused Jorgensen's sudden CONVEX.
sion ?"
81 suppose the boys frightened him. Be-
sides, he could plainly sec that the cards
were running our way, and, like all good
politicians, wanted to'get on the safe side.'
Now, continued the gentleman, II don't
wish you to publish this. give you this
little information for you to chew on, but
don't want to see it in print"
The reporter, whose business it is to scel;
out information, and when found make q
note of it, handed in his copy to the editor
and told him that the gentleman did not
want the matter published. "We!l, bawled
out the savage editor, that's good meat
and it must not be allowed to spoil" The
new reporter, who had only worked two
days, promptly wrote out his resignation
was paid off, and left the Office.

Curious Reading Just at This Time.

10 Me EdUOf OF he EreniHg CfitiC:
In speaking of the life and times of Wash
ington, one of our most popular writers
said fifty years ago: A foreign writer,
less known than he should be among Amer
lean scholars, has alluded to this influence
of Washington in passage of so much
beauty that ! resist the temptation, mis-
placed, as it may seem, to quote it here
He alludes to Professor Smith, of Cam
bridge who says "No other man could
have held the helm Of State so steadily in
so fearful strife of exaggerated sympa-
thics and antipathies." His
steady hand in these trying moments, as in
all his past actions, remains above all
praise. He persuaded his country, he en-
abled his country to stand aloof from the
unhappy storm of European politics he
resigned his popularity to accomplish so
great an end, and he maintained the Consti-
tuition over which he presided by severe and
dignifed confidence in its merits, and a calm
exercise of its powers and authority. He
was insulted, he was even resisted in his
own Executive Department. and as the
Chief Magistrate of America by the French
ambassador. The labors of the press at that
day, the enthusiasm of the people, the in
trigues of societies who voted themselves
the guardians of American liberty, the
natural sentiment of hatred to England,
all were united against the temper and
wisdom of Washington, but he rose superior
to them all. He contented himself with
steadily maintaining the principle of the
law of nations and the regulation of his own
government. That done. he laid an able
exposition of his case before the French
Government, and calmly demanded a re-
call of their ambassador. He was recalled
and new ambassador sent. The clouds
now grew lighter, the thunders gradually
rolled away, the horizon at length cleared
up, and the President was discovered in the
when the storm had found him. The
countenances then of all wise and good men
were at once turned upon him with The
most animated smiles of reverence and
love" A.

Judge Giles, not exactly compromising
the meaning of the phrase, told him that
he did not keen ropes, but that he could
get n piece just across the street in ono

gentleman had to be more explicit, and OK
planned to Judge Giles that he wanted n
piece of rope to tic II knot with,
and that marriage license wasn't

We cannot tell what else happened, but the
piece of rope was obtained and the knot was
soon tied, at the Sclman house, by Rev. G. G.

lance in (which he was riding was delayed
by a team and wagon, driven by one of the

the mule whacker got into wordy alterca-
ton, and Major Sanger got very indignant

Tom Thumb in size but Goliah in fury,

"Who the devil are you ?"
81 am Major Sanger, of the army, sir, and

That mule whacker elected q mouthful of
tobacco into the road and remarked

A sailors Advice.

The Richmond County Staten Island)
Herald tells this story Sergeant Roe has
incurred deserved censure for his oflcious-
ness in arresting an old sailor of the Snug
Harbor, who committed technical oifense,
but evidently without evil intent. Tho
sailor was in n North Shore church, and,
becoming intensely interested in the SER
mon, uttered an involuntary exclamation,
which the policeman construed into dis
turbing place of worship" The sermon
was on the downward path of SOUL and
the clergyman used the illustration of a
ship drifting on the rocks.
"The waves dash over her ~ exclaimed
the minister, Her sails arc split Hei
yards are gone! Her masts are shivered
Her helm is useless She is driving ashore
There is no hope! What can save her
now!-"
"Let go the anchor, ye lubber" yelled
the excited seaman.
