only member that has refused to serve
where Speaker Carlisle placed him.

THE war of words which is now going
on among certain Democratic papers of
the State, and out Of the State, too,
over the Senatorial contest, is waged in
a spirit which bodies no good to the
Democratic organization. Especially is
this so of papers championing the
claims of Senator Pendleton and Hon.
Henry i. Payne. This war of words
and abuse is wholly out of.place, and
does little to further the claims of eth
er. Both of these gentlemen are men
of distinction, noble and talented. Sen
ator Pendleton has been in public life
for long years, having a nationol repu-
tation, while Henry B. Payne is known
only to be revered and respected, Il
Democrat of the Douglas school; and q
statesman in every sense of the word.
Either would honor the great State of
Ohio upon the floor of the Senate, and
be credit to his party. Then why re-
sort to abuse and calumny? 1t is de-
grading, not only to the individuals
themselves, but to the party organiza-
Ition. All that can be asked of the Leg
.islature ia that good man be selected,
and whether it be Payne, Pendleton,
Ward, Converse, Seney, or any other
good Democrat, the great Democratic
party 81 Ohio will not be compromised,
but the good old party will so Oh with
renewed energy fighting the battle of
and for the people.

SENATOR SHERMAN's itching desire
to be chosen President OF the United
States Senate, in order TO be near Presi-
fdent Arthur, tAe~nan MlaeN he lTicked
out of the New York Custom House
several years ago, leads the Washington
correspondent of the New York Sun te
recall Secretary (now Ssnator) Sher
mans report to President Hayes on the
"gross abusesn that had continued and
increased" during Arthur's collector
ship; the "many persons regularly paid
ON his pay-rolls who rendered little ol
no service;;" the practice of "bribes OF
gratuities in the nature of bribes;n his
non-support of the efforts to correct
these abuses, and his non-attention tC
the dNties of his office, all of which he
said made out the case for removal fol
cause. And further, in q letter to the
Senate, Secretary Sherman said: "It
would be unjust to the President
Hayes and personally embarrassing to
me (Sherman) in the dischage of my
duties, to have the office of Collector Of
the Customs of New York held by one
Arthur who will not perform the du-
tics according to the general policy of
the Government" The correspondent
argues that it would in like manner be
unjust to the President (Arthur) to
have in the office of President ofthe
Senate one (Sherman) who had charged
him (Arthur) with the protection of
corruption and malfeasance in office,
and had caused him (Arthur) to ha de-
graded from his office on such charges.
President Arthur now rather has the
better of Senator Sherman, but the
President may be like ex-Plesident
Johnson in the case of distinguished
Pennsylvanian, unwilling to waste
ammunition on a "dead duck.o "Ilet the

some people are bright enough 70 en-
10Y good joke. but do not have memory
enough to repeat il to others. Failures
Of this kind are somesines very ludic-
rous. We give below some good spesi-
mems:
The most famous Of this clan was the
college professor Who, on parting With q
student that had called on him, noticed
that be had new coat, and remarked
that II was too short. The student, with
an air Of resignation. replied: 1T will
b long enough before / get another"
The professor enjoyed the Joke heartily,
and, going to meeting Of the college
Faculty Just afterward, be catered the
room in great Rlee and said:
Young Sharp got of such . joke jest
now. He called on me little while ago,
and as he was leaving noticed his new
coat, and told him IL vas too short, and
he said: 1t will be long time before
get another No one laughed, and the
Professor, SOLDERING down, remarked:
1t doesn't seem 50 funny as when be
said it,"
A red-haired lady, whs was ambitious
of literary distinction. found but poor
sale for her book. A gentleman, in
speaking of her disappointment. said:
Her hair is red, (lead) if her book
is not" An auditor, in attempting to
relate the joke elsewhere. put it in this
shape: She has red hair, it her book
hasn't"
The most unfortunate attempt at re-
producing another's Wit Vas made by
an En9lishman who didn't understand
the pun, but judged from the applause
with which it was greeted that il must
be excellent. During dinner at which
he was a guest q waiter let boiled
tongue slip of the plate on which he
was bearing il, and IL fell On the table.
The host at once apoloeizsd for the mis-
hap a. . lapsMs hsgue-slip Of the
tongue. The joke vas the BEST thing at
the dinnef, and our friend concluded to
bring it up at his own table. He 40
o0rdinely invited his company, and in
struoted his servant to let fail Q roast
of beef as he was bringing it to the
table. When the accident occurred
