4 LITTLE MISTAKE I MADE.

:
school. You see the boys called me
molly-coddle and girl-boy aud things
that no Teller can stand without being
riled;. and just gave out that I'd lick
any one of them that wanted to try it,
and can tell YOU had to pitch in right
and left pretty lively, for Of course they
took that the same as a stump, and all
for standing up for my cousin Lefty
Mason, and I'd like to know what kind
Of a boy I'd be not to stand up for my
own )nsin-yisiting at nv house, too.
You see Ned Allen was mad because
! said Lefty was as smart and pretty as
any six girls in town put together, and
his big brother goes with young lady
that Ned thinks is just perfection, be-
cause she treats hin1as if he was grown
up, and asks him questions about history
and things. and I'd like to know what
business she has to make him think he's
the best scholar in school, when he gets
the worst reports of most anybody; it's
deccitful. think.
Then, besides. she hasn'tany eyebrows
to speak of. and her teeth stick away
out. Lefty has little curly rings OF black
hair all over her head, and her great
black eyes shine like Uncle's boots after
a polish; and the pinkiest cheeks with
the cunningcst little dimples whenever
she smiles. But all that wouldn't 90
for much if she wasn't so smart. She
won all my allies, playing marbles, and
! tell you She skips stones just bully. if
she is girl.
But Twas going to tell you about Nefs
brother Phil. He isn't here all the time,
because he's lawyer. and this town
isn't half grand enough for Master
Philips talents. haven't ANYTHING
against Phil though; he's nice Teller.
only he does wear such dreadfully clean
shirts, and is forever twirling his mus
taeiie. ISL So q s-~ filsniSs SD
Well, so it wasthe last week of school.
just after Ned said that LEFTY couldn't
hold a candle to Phirs Young lady. and
ave just had it hot and heavy. and were
both OF us pretty well bungedu up, that
Phil came home with a broken arm. A
horse had rtlr, away with two ladies', and
Phil grabbed the bride and stopped it,
but he was thrown down and trampled
upon and got pretty win bruised up. be-
side his arm. But / guess it paid, for
he was about as much of q hero as Gen.
.cral Grant. The sewing society talked
about him whole afternoon. Ned felt
as set up as IL he had done some 'sr ,s,t

our thoughts If a man acts or speaks
with an evil thought, pain follows
him. as the wheel follows the foot of
the OK that draws the cart.
For hatred does not cease by
hatred at any time hatred ceases by
love-this is not an old rule.
Let man overcome anger By love;

him overcome the greedy by liberals

Let Us live happily then, not hating
those who hate us! Among rnen who

tiers OF the utmost Importance to our
people requires my presence here.
TIE army bill threatens TO stop the in
testigdtiop Of our ear claims. There
is an important meeting of the Con
gressional executive committee. and
new claims bill for claims not now
provided for by law, and of great
Importance to our people, which IS
likely to come up at any hour. All
these things demand the utmost care

The first thing TO be noted is, that

/ stop the investigation of our war
claims, which required his presence
there, had passed the House of Re-
representatives. ttvo days before
th. dispatch is dated. Let
the man who earns his bread and

shortcomings, deny this
, Second, Houk's friend, DR.. Foster,
says he was too sick to be seen by a
lady friend on the It'll of April, the
date of the above dispatch why
didn't he mention that important fact
IN his telegram to Messrs, Gibson
and Temple If he was really Sc III
as that, why not mention it in pre-
senting his excuses for not being
heret Will his organ explain that,
and tell how long he had been
sick, and also the nature of his sick
ness
. And thirdly, if lie could serve his
constituents ON matters of the ut
most Importance, by pairing" with
some other Congressman and remain
ing in Washington, why could he
not ''pair" and come home to make
the speech he was to have made here
and which was SO extensively adver>
tised through the medium of spread
eagle posters When these
things are explained, VIZ
may have, something further
to say. The editor of his organ
knows why he appears recorded a
mot voting in the Congressional
Record OF April 9th, and preceding
days. He knows why he did no
come to Knoxville to speak as h
was announced to do. He knows al
about, and if he suppresses the trutl
it is because he believes the trutl
would be injurious to the man whom
he serves. His explanation is disin
genuous, and every one who reads
will see that it is so.

A CONGRESSMAN WHO PAIRS.

The editor of Judge Houk organ,
in this city, comes to the front, as he
is in duty bound to do, with defense
of the man to whom he owes his
bread and butter. Every one who
knows how much he is indebted to
our Congressman expected this, but
it was expected also, that in his ex-
PLANTATION of Judge Houk absence
from his post of duty when an impor
tant amendment was adopted, pro-
hibiting the use of funds apprepria-
ted in the army bill, in the investiga
ton of war claims, he would be legs
disinge nuous and more expl anatory.
He admits that Houk did not vote,
but publishes note from the clerk
OF the House Of Representatives, to
the effect that there was an error in
the Congressional Record, from
which we copied, nj that it showed he
was not paired, when in fact he
was. We make this correction. He
appeared in the list of those mot
voting" this is not denied,
but as corrected, the Record showed
that Mr.. Clark of Missouri, was
paired with Mr. Houk Whether
BIr. Clark would have voted for the
amendment does not appear, and
therefore we cannot tell whether the
pair was effective.
But giving him the full benefit of
his lame explanation, what does it
amount to? He claims to be the
champion of that class of our peo>
pie who have claims against the
government. He assumes extraordi
nary ability in presenting their
claims. But by his own admission,
when this vital question came up, be
was "paired. and presumably not
in his seat. Why any one can
pair with another. 1t is nothing
more nor less than bargain with
another: "if you will agree not te
vote for this amendment ] will moi
vote against it, That is all there il
in it. Judge Houk was paired
that day as he was on proceeding
DAYS and was recorded in the list o
those mot voting, as he was .tiot
times ont Of every sin when the rol
was called, during the entire last SEES
sion of the Forty.sixth Congress
AS pairing Congressman, having
his name recorded as mot voting,
he is certainly a success.
But there are two or three thingt
which the public would like to hav,
explained, upon which the Judge
organ is silent as the grave. Hewa
announced to speak in Knoxvill
April Sth. He did not come. In ez
planation of his failure the followin,

THE NORTH AMERICAN REVIEW.

In the early part of this century a
quarterly publication was begun at
Cambridge in the style of the Edin~
burg Review and the great English
Reviews. 1t was ably conducted
and represented the best American
literature and scholarship. The
four annual numbers forms two
volumes of nearly 600 pages each
two handsome volumes a year.
We do not hesitate to affirm that the
first one hundred volumes of the
series have more literary merit and q
greater value for the general reader
than any other one hundred volumes
ever published in America. The edi-
| torial management was entrusted to
such men as Richard H Danna,
John q. Palfrey and Edward Everett
and nothing was admitted unwor>
thy the character of these distinguish
cd men.
I The publication is now in it's sixty
seventh year, but wholly changed in
/ everything except the name. It is
/ still called the North American Res
! view. 4 few years ago it fell into
the hands OF one Allen Thorndike
Rice, an Englishman, we understand,
who 'disclaims responsibility for the
opinions of contributors, whether
the articles are signed or anony-
nous. 1t is published monthly,
each number containing about one
hundred pages, and the publication
transferred to New York. Each
number contains about as many arti
Giles as formerly appeared in tne
quarterly numbers. Of course
the articles..ar much shorter. That
is not all the subjects are rarely OF
permanent interest, and the writers,
apparently, are anybody who can be
employed, or who has fancy to take
shy at some current topic. There
are no regular contributors, and nc
one, we should Judge, concerns him
self much about anything but the
! financial success. The literary merit
is hardly on par with frsteclaes
daily newspaper, and SO ephemera-
on the discussions that five years
hence not one in ten will be worth
reading.
The number for May is on our ta>
BILE It contains six articles, ayerag
ing less than twenty pages each. The
first and longest is political, by Car
Schurz; the next q readable paper
on Longfellow, by Sam Ward; ther
comes religious article, by Elizabeth
. Stuart Phelps, novel by Lieutenant
! Commander Gorring, PHILOSOPHERS
by w. Ell. Mallod, concluding with /
diatribe by Gail Hamilton
against the doctors, preach
ers and lawyers who had any
thing to do with the sufferings ant
death of the late President.
Ii there is want in the countr,
for such farrago, very well; let i
be forthcoming; the city of New
York is the place for it, and Mr.. Ric'
is, no doubt, just the man to concoc
it, but we confess distaste at see
ing it connected with the time-hon
ored name of the North American
Review.
