Both the Virginia Senators were, as is
well known, in the Confederate service,
though they work with the Republicans
now. Malone raised the Sixth Virginia
and commanded it in the battles of the
peninsular campaign, those about Pc
tersburg, and along the RappahannOck,
helped capture the Norfolk navy yard,
was made Major General in 1864, and COM
manded a corps i'll HIPS army.
Rlddleberger served three years in the
Confederate army as Second Lieutenant,
First Lieutenant and Captain.
Kenna, OF West Virginia, seems to be
the only one of the entire list OF twenty
five eX-COnfederates in the Senate, who
served as a private soldier thrOughOuth his
connection with the army. He entered
the service as a mere boy, being indeed
but Is years of age at its close. He
volunteered when about Is years old. was
severely wounded at the age of II, and
was surrendered at Shreveport at the age
of about Is.
1t is a singular fact that while almost
every Senator from the States forming
the COnfederacy was in active service of
the Confederate Government, only a
comparatively small number of the Sena-
tors from the Northern States are eX-
Union soldiers. There are but thirteen
X-UniOn soldiers in the Senate-Hawley,
Mitchell, Miller of New York, Miller of
California, Sewell, Blair, Van Wyck,

A Man who skulked.


Riding out from Chattanooga toward
Bridgeport on horseback l came across a
native who had a seat on rock quite a
piece above the road. If he hadn't rat
lied a stone down Just as l came opposite
he might nave escaped undetected. He
had a gun across his knees, and l called
to him:
.'Pretty good hunting around hereE"
MAY be-" he answered.
"What do you fndW
''Nuthin' yit."
He seemed so cranky that l was about
to ride on, when he rose Up and descend
ed to the road. He didn't look bit good
natured and he held his shotgun in a
very careless manner as he said:

TABBY ON FAIR SHOULDERS.
New Use Found for the Back Fence
WarbIers.

New use round for the Back Fence
WarbIers.
A sleek and well-fed cat emerged from
a Sixth avenue restaurant yesterday af-
ternOon, says the New York -H0rniRQ Jour
nal, and gaZed cOntentedly around. The
cat was good advertisement for the res
taurant. Its fur shone like patent leather
shoes, and the yellow stripes around it's
body looked like old gold.
A lean and swarthy Italian came eau
tiously up the avenue. His eyes glistened
as they caught sight of the feline. An
empty bag hung upon the back of the son
OF Italy. He glanced cautiously around
as he neared the cat.
The coast was clear, and with a quick
movement he grabbed it by the neck and
showed it into the bag. There was a
smOthered 'meow'' and a frantic scratch
ing in the bag. Then the Italian walked
hastily away, on the lookout for more un-
suspecting felines.
THAT'S new industry" remarked a
saloon keeper near the restaurant, who
had witnessed the performance. Dozens
of Italians are going around town steal
lag cats. They kill them and sell the
skins to furriers. That's the reason why
ladies' iur-liDed clOaks are so cheap this
winter. Ladies who are wearing what
they suppose to be clOaks lined with OF
ter, mink and other skins are in reality
carrying around the fur of some old house
cat or backyard disturber. The furriers
dye the skins in all kinds of styles, and
the demand for cats will soon exceed the
supply"

A PHILADELPHIAN's. CARPs.
Atlantic City's Model Fish Farm snd It's
MANAGEMENT.

Management.
About one mile from the AbsecOn sta
ton, this county, says the Atlantic City
Times, are carp ponds, already remark
able for the fish they contain. The first
are those of Mr.. Banner Thomas of Phila-
delphia, whose farm is on the Leeds Point
road.
Three years ago, Jan. 1, 1882, he receiy-
ed from the government twenty-seyeu
young Leather carp. They were placed
in an artificial pond, built in the field near
his house, where plenty of spring water
bOils up out of the earth. On January
last twenty-six of these fish were taken
out and put in a new pond, next adjoin-
ing. They weighed on an aV 4rage thirty
pounds. They are twenty-eight inches
long, one foot deep, six inches through
sideways, and are mOnstrous fish.
The writer visited the ponds on Friday,
and learned from MIR. George Thomas,
son, interesting facts concerning them.
The fish are never fed except in su miner
for the purpose of attracting them 10 the
surface where they can be seen. Last
year and two years ago these fish spawned,
stocking two ponds of two acres each
with thousands OF young, the older OF
which now weigh pound on an average.
The second crop, about seven months Old,
are from eight to ten inches long.
Jan. l, 1888, MIR. Thomas received from
the government 200 more tingerlings.
These, now over two years old, weigh If
teen pounds each. They have spawned
once and have densely populated pouS
No. 3.
So successful has the experiment OF
carp culture been that workmen are now
busy making other ponds for the rapidly
increasing flock of fish. The ponds are
built on the borders of the salt meadow.
and are fed entirely from the springs
which boil from the ground. They are
maze by pillng up the turf, sand and MUG
from the bottom of the ponds into banks
large and strong enough for wagon road
on top. The water varies in depth from
one TO five feet.
In winter the carp burrOw in the mud.
being seen only on warm days, when thew
come near the surface. Being a scarce
article in the market, carp now command
fancy, pricesmas high as forty cents a
pound. Mr.. Thomas will sell his Oldest
carp in the spring.

Some characteristics of Arthur aas
Cleveland.
COVrier-J0atradL.


Arthur is good dinner-giver or diner
out. Cleveland is like Gen. Sherman or
Gen. Grant in his tastes. Neither of the
three cares very much what he eats so il
is plain and well cooked AS for The ar
tlstic cuisine of the French school. Cleve-
land knows nothing about it and cares
less. He is ia rly good drinker, so tie
table menage will not be an ice-water one,
put MS drinking is mainly beer. though
ne rellshes cocktail now and then. He
is very regular in his sleeping, and can
not sit up all night, as Gen. ARTHUR used
TO DO, and does still. l believe, and not
feel it.
! never saw such man as Arthur is in
this respect. He becomes brighter after
midnight, and about in the morning
alter ne has a good supper and a bottle or
Two OF champagne, he is positively bril-
Liant. We used TO call him the OWlat Al
Dany, for he seemed never to sleep. | be-
ileve he is the same still.
CleVeland's capacity for hard work il
wonderful, and he has not had a day Of
Illness worth speaking of since ne was a
boy. AS for intimate friends he never had
any. Then he has another unusual duali-
W, and that is unsusceptibility. No
woman could ever influence him wit.
IL mas often been tried, especially Of late
years. but never succeeded. He is abso-
lutely free OF that weakness that often
pertaInsto so many otherwise strong men.

DID NOT KNOW HER.
A Woman HOnOred by Gen. Sherman
with a kiss, II ut Her Name unknown
Scrap of a Street Conversation.

Washington Star.
One morning while Gen. Sherman was
visiting Washington lately, he met Gen.
Schenck on the street.
GLOW are you, Schenck ?" said the bluff
old warrior. You are looking splen-
didly."
''Yes;" was the reply. 81 am first rate;
haven'tfelt so well in the past or 8 years.
But, tell me, General, who was that very
pretty woman you kissed after the recep-
ton the other night?'
The war horse pondered moment. and
exclaimed, "Oh! remember, but blessed
if / know who she was"
sDid you know she was a married
woman?' asked Schenck.
''No, indeed" said the General, laugh
ing, ''and haven't seen her since. You
see they all stood up there in line and l
just waded In, but l remember the one
you mean"
The two old friends tried to figure out
the pedigree of the kissed woman, but the
one only knew that she was married, and
the other that she was kissable. Finally,
Gen. Schenck said, "Well, anyhow, Sher-
man, l admire your taste"
Yes" remarked Gen. Sherman, with n
twinkle in his eye, ''she was fine, GER
tainly. Did you notice how well she
stood upon her fetlOck joints? She was a
fine woman"
The two old friends agreeing well upon
the point, shook hands and separated.
Judging from the above the stories about
Gen. sherman's kissing proclivities are
not entirely imaginary.

DIXIE'S CONGRESSMAN.
THE GREAT MAJORITY OF THEM
EX-

Where Each of the Senators Stood
During the Great struggIe-Messrs.
Lamar and Wade Hampton Most Asked
for-Mahone's Career in the Southern
Army.
Correspondence If the Morning Meas.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 23.-The recent dis
cussion in the Senate growing out of the
Davis-Sherman controversy calls atten-
ton anew to a subject of interest to
good many people-the -Confederates in
Congress. 1t is an interesting fact, and
one not generally recognized, perhaps,
that nearly or quite all of the Senators
from the States of the Confedsracy were
members of the Confederate army or Con-
gress, and that more than One-half of the
members of the House from those States
were also in that service. 1t is a fact, too,
not generally recognized that one-third of
the Senate is made up OF ex-COnfederates,
while the House has in it twice as many
of that class as has the Senate. The total
number of ex-COnfederates IN Congress
runs between 20 and 100. OF these the
majority were officers in the army, though
there are a half-dOzen who were in the
Congress of the Confederate States, and
one or two who were IN the Cabinet.
Let us take the Senate first and run
through the list. Considering them al
phabetically, Alabama comes first. Sena-
tor Pugh, who has just been reelected TO
the Senate, was a member of the House
when the war broke out. He withdrew
from Congress when his State decided to
secede, and, returning home, enlisted as
private soldier in the Confederate army.
Later on, however, when his people came
10 cast about them for a man to serve
them in the Confederate Congress, they
selected him, and calling upon him to ex-
change the arts OF war for those of the
legislator. he obeyed. He remained a
member of the Confederate Congress dur
ing its entire existence.
Senator Morgan, of Alabama, was
a delegate to the Sta.e COnven-
ton that passed the ordinance of
secession, Joined one of the first
companies raised for the Confederate
army, enlisting as a private soldier. His
company was attached to the Fifth Ala
bama Regiment, when he was elected
Major, from which position he advanced
step by step until he became Brigadier
General,

is that the situation is now the same as before
Mr.. Dorsey came into prominence IN connec-
ton with the property. 1t is stated here that

rolling stock and an ample quantity OF 1t wlu

of New York, to look after the interest OF
the company in Georgia, which is interested
in the property of the entire system.
