Suggestion for q New Style Of Con-
greSsi0nal Record.

II Congress resolve to act upon the
suggestion that the Congressional Record
be issued as weekly and sent to every
family in the country, some modification
ought to be made of the contents of the
Record. The paper is much to heavy
and dismal in its present condition to be
welcomed in the ordinary American
household. As for the general contents,
describing the business proceedings in
the Senate and House, we recommend
that these should be put into the form of
verse. We should treat them, say,
something in this fashion:
mM Mr. Hill sA t@
introduced bill
10 give John Smith O pension,
Mr.. Bayard
Talked himself tired
But said nothing worthy of mention.
This would be succinct, musical, and
IN degree impressive. The Youngest
readers could grasp the meaning of it,
and 1t could easily be committed to
memory. Or a scene in the House might
be depicted in such terms as these:
A very able speech was made by Cox, of Min.
Respecting the necessity of protecting the
black voter.
Twas Indignantly responded to by Smith, Of
Alabama,
Whose abominable talk was silenced by the
Speakers hammer.
Then Atkinson. of Kansas, rose to make an
explanation,
But was pulled down by a colleague in state
of Indignation.
And Mr.. Alexander, in speech about insur
ance,
Taxed the patience of his hearers pretty
nearly past endurance.
After which Judge Whitaker denounced the
reciprocity
Treaty with Hawaii as ascandalous monstros-
ity.
1t would be advisable, of course, to
vary the meter as much as possible, in
order to prevent the monotony which
would otherwise dull the interest of the
reader.
After giving the proceedings in the
House as above, something of more
spirited nature, perhaps, could be insert
ed into the Senate reports. Suppose,
for example, the pages devoted to the
Senate should lead off with something of
this kind:
Then up rose Smith, of Florida, the best of the
And spoke about his measure for protecting
alligatorS;
He showed how tourists shoot at them with
And asked to have it made crime to kill
them out of season.
Then Brown he moved amendment by insert
ing brief clause
Compelling alligators not to operate their
jaws;
But Smith he up and said of him who thought
the subject comical,
That Nature, when she gave him sense, had
been too economical.
And Br )wn, responding briefly, wished to say
in this connection
That Smith in regard to reptiles had an eye
to self protection.
Then Smith he flung volume of the Message
and Reports,
And Brown was laid up on the floor q good
deal out of sorts.
OF course, versifcation of the Con-
grcssionaI Record would require the SER
vices of poet laureate of rather unusual
powers. If Congress shall accept seri-
ously the suggestions which we make
with an earnest desire to promote the
public interest, we shall venture to rec
emmend the selection of the Sweet
Singer of Michigan as the first oc-
cupant of the laureate's Office Our
Continent

When ruhhnr nls

When rubber plates are used for
making connections between steam and
other pipes leaking Of joints may be
prevented by using cement prepared
by dissolving shellac in ammonia. The
pulverized gum shellac is soaked in ten
times its weight of strong ammonia,
when a Shiny mass is obtained, which in
three or four weeks will become liquid
without the use of hot water. This
fastens well both to the rubber and to
the metal or wood, and becomes BY vo-
latization of the ammonia hard and i'm
permeable to either gases or fluids.

CHARLES HI. REED had an interview
with Gen. Benz. Butler. in Washington, the
other day, trying to induce him to argue
Guteau's case before the Court in general
term. Gen. Butler said he had no doubt of
Guteau's insanity. and if he had time he
would make the argument, but he could not
possibly take hold of it. He told Mr.. Reed
he ought to make the argument himself;
that he did not need any help. He may pos
sibly do so, he says. There is error enough
in the trial to set it aside if Guiteau had
killed an ordinary man.
