Wealth in the Senate.

From the Portland Argus.
The present senate contains at least score
of senators not one of whom is worth less
than $2oo, 200. The richest man is, of course,
Fair, of Nevada, who probably possesses as
much as all the other senators put together.
Next to him is David Davis. of Illinois, wi
dover, who is reputed to be the possessor of
millions. 1t is somewhat difficult to name the
senator whose fortune ranks third in size; but
if Eugene Hale, of Maine, has received the
mantle of his father-in- law, Zach Chandler,
with its well-lined pockets, his fortune is
nearly as large as that of David Davis. The
wife of Senator Hale is the only daughter of
the late Senator Zach Chandler. Other wealthy
senators are Miller, of California, Malone, of
Virginia, and Sawyer, of Wisconsin, known to
be worth more than million each. Sewell,
of New Jersey, is arailroad man, and is very
wealthy. Senator John Sherman. of Ohio, it
is said, is worth more than S., 600, 600, his
property consisting largely of real estate in
Washington. Among other senators who
write their fortunes with seven figures are
Cameron, of Pennsylvania, Camden and Da-
Wis, of West Virginia, Brown, of Georgia, and
Plumb, of Kansas, Senators Hill, of Colorado,
German, of Maryland, Mcpherson, of New
Jersey, and Pendleton, Of Ohio, are all worth
more than 100000. Many other senators
are comfortably fixed, possessing little boards
of from $50, 900 to $500, 1000. Among those
who have but little comparatively here below
that is, not more than $Ioo, 600 apiece-are
Morrill,, of Vermont, Anthony, of Rhode
Island, Rollins, of New Hampshire, Jones, of
Nevada, Saunders, of Nebraska, and Allison,
of Iowa.

Small Talk.
AM ERICAN SILK.

Washington, April 25.-The much talked
of silk dress pattern to be presented to Mrs.
General Garfield, arrived in the city this
evening, and will be placed on exhibition in
the rotunda of the capitol building for few
days, where it will doubtless be an object of
rare interest. 1t is the gift of the Woman's
Silk Culture association of the United States,
under whose direction the fabric was made,
and who furnished the material. This rare
specimen of purely American manufacture is
said to be the first silk dress pattern of entire
ly American make yet produced.

A POLICY PURE AND SIMPLE.

London, May 3.-The Times, in leader,
says the policy now to be tried on Ireland is
one of concession, pure and simple.
MEMBERS OF THE LADIES LAND LEAGUE I'M
PRIsONED.
London, May 3-Three members of the
branch of the ladies' land league of Troller
were arrested last evening. They appeared
before a magistrate at Castle Island to-day,
and were sentenced to six months imprison-
ment in default of bail.
PARNELL AND DILLON RELEASED.
Dublin, May 3.-Parnell and Dillon have
been released the kilmainham Jail. After their
release they drove in cab around the out
skirts of the city to IIarcourt station, where
they took the train for Avondale. They will
remain at Parnelrs residence two days, and
arrive in London on Friday.
ENGLISH PoLrrCs-wHAT IRELAND'S oPPoR-
TUNITIES ARE.
London, May 3.-The Times says public
opinion will approve Forster's manly and dig
nifed course in the presence OF trying and
painful alternatives.
The new policy of the government rests up
on the hope that the moderate language of the
land league, and the concession to some ex-
tent, 10 inc ucIndnuS OI Tic lduu laws diilcHu-
ment BILL and the release of Parnell, will touch
the feelings of the Irish masses, and restore
the authority Of the law and respect for public
and private rights. The probability of the
compromise with respect to tenants claims, is
a hopeful element. If Parnell will make use
of his liberty to restore order, there may be al
immediate improvement in the condition of
Ireland.
the Standard says the radicals have tri-
umphed all along and new tide is opening
upon English politics. 1t asks, if amnesty is
to be restored, on what ground can Davitt be
excluded from it?

An ONCE That is "Just He'll"

Said Gath: ssGen. Sherman, q
friend called at my house last night,
and thought you were to be the
next Republican candidate for Pres>
ident. "Now, about that said
Gen. Sherman, "you see I can not be
fool enough to decline what is not
offered to me; but what do I want to
turn from the prospect of rest and
peace, at last for period of years,
to the delusion of four years in an
office that is just hell! That's what
it is, continued the General emphat
ically; SIT is hell. What did Gen.
Harrison get out of it? Nothing,
but month of misery. What did
Gen Taylor get out of it, Twelve
months of misery What did Grant
get out of it? Do I want to
resign this competence Congress
has bestowed on me for four years
of hell? What did Hayes get out of
the Presidency What did Garfield
get7 Take them all within your
memory. Nothing but worry, trouble,
misunderstanding" "Well, Gen.
Sherman, people will talk. They
don't care anything about your COM
fort if they can elect you" That's
so. They will talk" said the Gen
eral.

A Charitable Congressman.

The late Thadeus Stevens, one
very warm day at the close of long
session, had been called out several
times by visitors at the door of the
House on begging errands, and had
gradually emptied his pockets as the
speediest mode of relief from their
opportunities. Finally the card of a
lady was brought in to him, and the
old man, with look of vexation,
hobbled again to the door to zee
what was wanted. The lady visitor,
with sweet smile, solicited his SUD-
scription to certainty. ''Take
this, said Mr.. Stevens, pulling off
his wig, and handing it to the solic-
ltor, leaving himself as bald as
newly laid egg; stake this, madam, it
is all I have left.
