watched his career here. In appearance
he is a rather remarkable man. He is
considerably more than SIX feet in height,
and big in proportion to his length. His
glistening white head, surrounded in its
badness by a fringe of black hair, looms
above everything in the retiring band Of
patriots. Unhappy the Tot of the man
who comes to Congress with a reputation
which he is unable to sustain in the hand
to-hand fight which he there encounters.
A man who goes out really regretted by
friend and political foe is HOrr, OF Michi-
gan. His career has been a remarkable
one. A busy, hustling sort of fellow, who
has never had time to study the graces of
OratOry, he is as full Of keen mother wit
as any fellow who has graced the hall of
Congress for a long time, unless perhaps
it be Mr.. Reed of Maine. He has proven
himself a really able student Of national
questions, a ready debater, keen in
repartee, and an excellent stOry-teller in
private life. He and Reed and Durham,
and sometimes Bayre and Cannon, have
a habit of getting together in little knot
on the floor Of the House after the session
to comment upon the days work, tell
stories and chat about whatever may
come to their minds. They are merry
party, but they will sadly miss Horn
smiling face, fat, pudgy figure and spark
ling wittIcisms when they come together
again next winter.

ENCOUNTER WITH A LION.
Desperate Struggle of Some Algeria
Farmers.

Desperate Struggle of Some Algerian
Farmers.
A very dramatic narrative of an en-
counter with a lion IS published by an
Algerian paper. 1t appears that for
months past farmers residing near a
forest in the African colony have been
YictimiZed by the lion, which carried off
their cattle, and especially eVinced a
partlahty for their sheen. EXasp Grated
by the gaps made in their small fOcks, it
was determined to make war on the depre-
datOT, and seventeen settlers, with five or
six Arabs, set out on what proved very
perilous adventure. They took up their
position in parties of four and five, at GER
tain spots in the forest which it was con-
jectured the animal would pass, and
towards nightfall the enemy was
seen coming leisUrely along by
one of these parties, number
ing five men. Alter consulting together
1t was decided that they should fire SIM
ultaneOusly, and at a given signal they
did so, the hon being seen to fall, utter
ing tremendous roar OF pain. He was
not dead, however, as the men too quickly
imagined, and when they approached the
animal he rose to his feet. crushed one of
his assailants with a blow of his power
ful paw, and Selling the head of his VIC
tim. smashed it at bite. Turning from
the mangled remains, the brute next at
tackled another man, biting off his arm
and otherwise injuring him. Two other
members OF the party were also grievous-
ly torn and bitten by the enraged animal.
and might have lost their lives i'll the ter
rible encounter had not their uniniured
comrade levelled his gun at the lions ear
and been lucky enough to stretch him on
the ground dead.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 27.-One hundred
and fifty members are just serving their
last week in the Congress of the United
States. Next Wednesday they viii shake
the dust Of Washington and Of official
life from their feet, it may be for years, il
may be forever. OF these retiring states
men II are Senators, are Delegates, and
1872 are members Of the House. OF the
$50 about one-half have served but one
term, while the others range through
terms Of years running up 20 ten and
twelve. There are half dozen men who
retire at the end of this session who have
served ten years apiece, and a half dozen
more who have served twelve years
apiece. The aggregate legislative exDe-
rience Of the 1870 IS about 100 years, or an
average Of five years apiece. And the
most Y Onderlul feature Of the whole mat
ter is that of the $50 who 20 out 10. or
10 per cent, do so from choice,
having declined a denomination. This roll
Of honor is as follows: Budd Of California,
Hardeman of Georgia, Cameron Of Wis
cOnsin, Washburne of Minnesota. Davis
of Illinois, English of Indiana, White of
Kentucky, Lacy of Michigan, Jordan of
Ohio, George Of Oregon. Patton of Penn
sylvania, Houseman OF Michigan, Dibrell
OF Tennessee, Poland of Vermont. Miller
OF Pennsylvania, and Maginnis of Mon
tana. Bedford, Blair, Lapham, Pendleton,
Cameron and Dibrell have served ten
years each, and Kellogg, Maginnis,
Vance, Smith, Buckner and Poland have
served tWelV5 wears apiece,

THE VENEZUELAN AWARDS.
A Scheme to Let the Present Admins
tratiOn Distribute $25O,O0O.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 27.-The closing
days of Congress will mark the death of
many measures on which hopes have been
built high, but they will also afford the
opportunity, always seized by adroit
manipulatOrs, to smuggle through ques-
tIonable schemes that could not pass it
time were afforded for scrutiny or qUes-
ton. Attempts have been made in many
directions this winter to negative the &C
ton of the last Congress, which recon-
mended the appointment of a new COM
mission for the adjudication Of the fraudu-
lent Venezuelan awards. So far these
efforts have been fruitless. The present
House Committee on Foreign Affairs
renewed the recommendation tor a new
commission, but the Senate committee
proposed that a quarter Of a million
dollars already paid by Venezuela on
account of these fraudulent claims and
now on deposit shall be distributed by
the administration without further in
curry.
1t is remarked as a somewhat singular
circumstance that so late as the present
week minority report has made its ap-
pearance in the House, resembling very
much the proposition of the Senate COM
mittee. This is to be held in readiness
for any emergency or opportunity, should
its substitution for the majority report be
Obtainabe. The shrewd argument used
with Republicans by the friends of this
scheme Is that the distribution of a quar-
ter of a million dollars should not be
allowed to go over to a Democratic adj
ministratiOn.

THE WHITE HOUSE.
The Executive Mansion Not to be
"Turned Over in Fact.

The Executive Mansion Not to be
"Turned Over in Fact.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 26.-TheTe is pre-
vailing impression that the transfer of
the White House and its contents upon
the change of administration is accom-
panied by a ceremony, particularly with
regard to transferring the responsibility
for the contents of the building, which
belong to the government. Such is not
the case, however. At the conclusion of
the inaugural ceremonies at the capitol,
it is the custom for the new and retiring
Presidents to be driven to the White
House IN advance of the procession.
There they partake of hasty luncheon
which has been prepared by direction OF
the retiring President, as a last act Of
courtesy to his successor. They then pro-
coed to the grand stand erected in front
of the White House and review
the procession, which will have
arrived by that time. The new
President remains in possession, and his
predecessor and members OF his family
remove elsewhere. With regard to placing
Executive Mansion nothing is done. Not
even a new inventory of the contents is
made. The steward of the White House
is a bonded official of the government,
and is the responsible person. 1t is taken
for granted that a new President will not
make an immediate change in this office,
having other matters of more importance
to occupy his attention. When there is a
change in stewards then an inventory is
made of the contents of the building and
the responsibility for them is transferred
from one to the other. 1t is understood
that the customary programme will be
carried out at the approaching Inaugural
ton. Mr.. Arthur Will take up his resi-
dence with the Secretary OF State tenn

costing anywhere up to five guineas.
Present on the occasion: The Queen,
Prince Albert, the Emperor Nicholas Of
Russia, and the King of SaXony in one
box; opposite. the old Duke of Yelling
ton the iron Duke, Sir Robert Peel, the
old Duke Of Cambridge, etc. Performing
in the opera were Lablanche Grisi and
Mario, and in the ballet CeritO and
Fanny Ellsler. Think Of what a galaxy.
Now all of these are dead, except the
Queen, while the theatre itself is sadly
changed. The other night, IN the box
where sat the Queen, hObnObbing with
the great Nicholas. was alot OF the lowest
demi monde, leaning over with dreadful
manifestations to attract scurvy gang
OF ruffians, in billy-cOck hats, who were
crowdiug and jOstling over the space
which had been then occupied by the
stalls. and where l had been pleased to
appear in full dress, and gaze like gObe-
DOucbe at royalty and at the divine Cerito.

man who goes out of the Senate with
a great deal more of genuine respect and
honor than he even had when he came TO
it, is Senator PendletOn. HOOted at and
derded for his civil service ideas, he has
taken this for his particular theme in
Congress, realizing that true success
comes from concentration upon one or
more important subjects rather than an
attempt to be brilliant in everything.
And by this course he has made a sue
cess greater than that of almost any con-
tempOraneOus statesman. His civil SER
vice system Will carry his name down to
succeeding generations long after those
who have h0Oted at it and him are for
gotten. 1t is whispered That Mr.. Pendle-
ton, if he does not go into the Cabinet, is
pretty sure of a mission OF the first-class
at some of the foreign courts.
Gen. SlOcum, of New York, is another
gentleman who retiTes without having
entirely fulfilled the expectations with
which his debut was announced. He
had been here before, too, SO that it is
perhaps not exactly proper to speak of
his coming on this occasion as a debut"
but rather as a temperance. His only
brilliant performance in this Congress has
been TO thus far defeat the Grant retire
ment bill because OF his Chagrin over the
veto of the FitZ John Porter bill. Mr..
Randall still hopes to get the Grant bill
through, however, in spite of opposition.
SlOcum is rather a gOOd-lOOking fellow,
with pretty good address, but aside from
his two fights for FitZ John Porter and
against Grant, he seems to have accom-
plished little, although he had been in
Congress for couple OF terms before
coming to this one.

IMPRISONED IN A CELLAR
And Kept There IL Years, BE Says, b.

And Kept There IL Years, BE Says, by
His Stepdaughter and Her Husband.
PITTsBURG, Feb. 27.-William jackson
Moore, Of Tridelphia, Washington county,
81 years of age, came to this city to-day
to consult legal advice concerning some
property of which, he says, he has been
deirauded by relatives. Moore says that
for IL years his stepdaughter and her hus-
band kept him prisoner in cellar, and
that he was not permitted to leave his
prison except occasionally at night, when
he would be allowed to walk about the
yard bound with ropes. When visitors
came to the house, as an extra precau-
ton, a gag was put in his mouth to keep
him from making any cutlery.
Some days ago he missed his usual
allowance of food, which was passed to
him through hole in the door. Hearing
no sound in the house, he determined to
make his escape, and with large stone
which had worked loose in the wall he
battered the door down. His relatives
were nowhere to be found. and with money
which he discovered in one of the draw
ers he came to Pittsburg. Previous to his
Imprisonment he says he was forced to
make will in favor of his stepdaughter,
and on the day preceding his incarcera-
ton the neighborS were informed that the
old man was going to Michigan,

Mr.. Ochiltree. the ''Only native Texan
ever elected to Congress- is another re-
treating figure. He has not disappOIut-
ed any body, for nobody expected much
from him. What is to become OF him af-
ter the protection OF Congress is with
drawn from his now sacred person is
hard to say, for Mr.. Alexander still swears
he will slice him up the day he ceases to
be a member of Congress. How sad q
fate for one SO young and innocent!
Mr.. Bedford, the red-headed rOarer OF
the Rockies, goes too, after 10 years con-
tinuous service. He is a queer character,
but in more senses than one brilliant"
enc. II Bedford would take advice, and
E'lOok not upon the wine when it is red, ;"
would eliminate the color from his very red
face and nose, wear clothes of fashion
able cut and comfortable fit, and omit
some of his oddities, he would make one
of the most successful men in public life.
For he is as "sharp as tackso and well
read. But, alas, there are too many
''ifs.o
John d. White. the irrenressible, also
goes. He will resume the practice of law,
probably, for he has q fine lelal training.
lie had at one time thought OF removing
to Louisville and settling himself in the
practice Of law there. OF course there will
be a good many men in as well as out OF
Congress who will rejoice when Mr.. White
takes his place in the thrOng Of retiring
statesmen, but there will be few among
that $50 who are brighter, better read,
or gentler in private life than this same
noisy and demOnstratiVe member Of the
House, whose appearance on the floor is
always greeted with mental grOan of
anguish by large majority of those who
witness it.
And there is another of this class
"Richelieu" Robinson, Of New York.
Heaven rest him. There have been a good
many worse men in Congress, but few
who could make more noise when the tail
of the British lion was in sight.
Senator Jonas, of Louisiana, gives
place to the man whom he succeeded, Mr..
Eustis. Jonas has made a ''recOrd" as a
political manager in the past year, and
will not he long out Of job. There are
plenty Of nice positions IN and out of this
country, any one OF which he would
grace.
Mr.. Money, Of Mississippi, who wanted
to be Postmaster General, will perhaps
rise to the surface again some time.
Washburne, OF Minnesota, one of the
beat workers in the House, 1t is whispered
may come back to the Senate in a couple
of years to succeed Mr.. Mcmillan. He
might have staid in the House as long as
