THE sPEAKERsHIp IN HISTORY
IN. z. oraphic.l ]

James X. Polk was the only Speaker
Of the House Of Representatives who was
elected President Of the United States.
Polk was speaker for two terms. The
only man filling the office of Speaker who
was elected Vice President is Schuyler
Colfax Of Indiana. Colfax was Speaker
for three terms.
Henry Clay of Kentucky held the
Speakership for the long period OF ten
years-the longest service on record.
Andrew Stevenson OF Virginia filled the
Office for seven legislative years. Steven
son was a Richmond lawyer who had
received training as Speaker of the Vir-
s.nia Hsass - Representatives. OF
which body he had been for twenty
years member. He was subsequently
sent as Minister to England, his success.
sor in that Office being Edward Everett.
Nathaniel Macon, James G. Blaine and
Schuyler Colfax were each elected for
three successive terms and each served
six legislative years. Macon of North
Carolina was in Congress for thirty-seven
years, serving for the larger part OF this
time in the Senate. No one in our his.
tory has enjoyed thus far so long period
of Congressional service. Nathaniel
Macon fought gallantly as a private
soldier in the war of the Revolution.
having declined the offer of an officers
commission. He belonged to the State
Sovereignty school of statesman, consti.
tuting sort of connecting link between
Jeffersod and Calhoun.
There have been thirty-three Speakers
of the House of Representatives. if We
include the Speakers pro tempore, soms
of whom served for q full Legislative
year. As ninety.four years have elapsed
since the meeting of the First Congress
under the Constitution, this would Civ,
the average period of service for eacl
presiding officer somewhat less thai
three years. The State of Kentucky ha
had the Speakership conferred on thre
of its citizens, who have held the ofic
in the aggregate fifteen years. Virgini
has enjoyed this high Office eleven year:
Next comes Massachusetts,, whose Rel
resentatives have occupied the Speaker
chair for ten years. Pennsylvania an
Indiana have each had three Speaker.
whose full service amounted to min
years for each State of the origins
thirteen States. Delaware and Rhod
Island are the only two that have nc
had the Speakership at least once.
| New York has had but one Represer
tative chosen Speaker in almost hur
dred years. The young State OF keI
lucky has had the Speakership alread
a dozen years longer than the olde
State or any State in the Union.

The temperature in Mercury is supposed
to be seven times hotter than our torrid

1t is believed that Venus has an atmos.
phere much like ours, and mountain
peaks five or six times higher than Ten

The moon never leaves our globe;
therefore it is called our satellite
Though to us it appears much larger than

stephen Girard's Valet.

The cream of Philadelphia colored
society gathered at the house of Mr..
John Meyers, No. 1917 Addison street,
last evening, to witness the nuptials of
Mr.. Charles Simpson and Mrs. Mary l..
Harris, dusky widow from Alexandria,
Va. Colored circles have been greatly
interested in the marriage, for, while the
blushing bride is but twenty eight years
of age, eighty-two summers and like
number of winters have rolled into his.
tory since the bridegroop's birth.
The ceremony was performed by the
Rev. G. T. Shifter, pastor of Aliens
chapel, LON bard ieet, above Nine
tenth. the groom being accompanied by
an old friend from Baltimore, who acted
as his best man. The bride was dressed
in white silk, with orange blossoms in
her hair, and looked even younger than
she was, while the radiant bridegroom
seemed his own junior by a score of years
at least.
Later in the evening the happy pair
held reception at the residence of the
bridegroom, on North Tenth street,
where they received the congratulations
of their many friends.
This is Mr.. Simpsons third matrimo-
NAL venture. He is pleasant-faced,
july old gentleman. full of spirits (ani-
NAL, not alcoholic), with Burnside whis.
kers as white as snow, and eyes that
twinkle with fun. He was born a free.
man. in Queen Anne county, Maryland,
in 1900, and at the age of twenty five
came to Philadelphia, where he went
into the service of Stephen Girard in the
capacity of body servant, which position
he filled until the time OF Mr.. Girard 8
death, in 1880. He is bright and enter.
tanning in his conversation, and relates
many interesting anecdotes of his
millionaire employer.-[ Philadelphia
