TWO sides OF congressman's Life

Two sides OF Congpessman's Life
1t is an error to suppose that the law
makers have nothing more to do than to
attend the ordinary sessions Of the Sem
ate or House, and draw their pay. Some
Of them are models Of industry,-going
to the Capitol early in the morning,
holding committee meetings for an hour
or two, darting off to an executive de-
partment for information, taking part In
the debates Of the respective Houses,
writing letters to constituents, and
transaoting infinite odds and ends OF
business until dusk. And when they go
home In the evening, they are not
always allowed to rest. They are both
cred by dissatisfied constituents; they
are besieged by strangers and friends,
one wanting this done, another that, a
third something else, until, wearled and
exhausted, they sink into a restless
sleep, and dream hideous visions Of the
coming day.
Yet there Is another side to the pic
ture. They each receive 5000 a year
and perquisites, to say nothing Of the
honor of writing IN. G." and "U. s. s."
after their names; they are "distin-
gulshed guests" wherever they go; they
uit W iCNCCb anu IcCCPtlonb,
to all festivals and amusements; they
banqueted by the President and enter
tanned by Cabinet Ministers; and they
are welcome to every species of domes-
tic and foreign hospitality, from char
ity ball to german at the lega-
ton, where they move solemnly
through the figures Of the state
ly minuet or dance to the
llvelier music ola cotillion and Virginia
reel. Altogether, their careers are de-
cidedly agreeable, and the average Con-
gresham would gladly serve his ooun-
try for life, and "nominate his bones
to fill the vacancy occasioned by his
death. The bright little son Of Sena-
tor evidently thought the Senate was an
hereditary institution; for, when asked
what he intended 10 be on reaching
manhood, he mournfully answered:
"Well, I'd like to be hack driver, but

NEW GUINEA.
Habits and Appearance OF O People
Who Dwell in the Antipodes.


The comparatively bare Australian
looking coat range Is backed by q sue
cession Of higher ranges, with preclpi-
tious ravines and occasional open val
leys, sometimes few miles in width,
full Of rich, deep soil; the whole watercd
by fine streams, and clothed with dense
tropical forests, interpreted with open
grassy patches. In these intermediate
ranges the rocks in some parts are vol
canlc,. In others a volcanic breccia Is
found, resting on metamorphio strata,
consisting OF talcose and plumbaginous
schists and states, with veins Of
quartz. The valleys, and In many
cases, the hillsides are cleared and
carefully fenced and cultivated. Very
fine sugarcane. cotton and tobacco are
found everywhere, and yams and taro
(among other food sources) are extern
sively grown ant stored, and oak grows
there and pigs fatten on the acorns.
The natives are reported as singularly
amiable, honest and pleasant to deal
with, their first Impressions OF Euro
peans, which were taken from the mis-
sionaries, having happily been con-
ilrmed by the general conduct Of snbse-
quent travellers prospecting for gold and
others. Without the aid they have will
lingly given as carriers, explorations
would, In fact, have hardly been posi-
BILE. The different tribes seem, how
ever. as rule, to be at war with each
other, and the prevalence Of the dobbo
(houses built high up In the trees) and
stockaded villages testify to general
insecurity. At least two types OF popu-
lation are reported here-onc, perhaps,
corresponding to the race with Polyne-
sian afllnities, who occupy the neigh
boring coast, Is fair and taller and more
intelligent than the other, with aquil-
line noses and high foreheads; In the
other race the forehead is lower, the
clined to be "woolly,"i. O., probably the
"mop" is less elaborate. Others are de-
scribed as intermediate In appearance,
but the observations made are INSULT

Begging In China.

In China begging is regular business,
beggars being born into the profession
and bringing up their children to 1t. In
every large city there is u vast assooia-
ton OF mendlcants, to which every one
who begs for living must belong. AT
the head is one styled the Beggar King.
His authority is absolute, ana to him the
others are amenable. The society has n
code Of rules, and by this every beggar
has right, according 10 custom, to
stand at the door of dwelling and howl,
sing, knock OF make any other noise he
pleases, until the occupant gives him one
cash.

sashes or Scarfs.


Sashes or scarfs are a special feature
of imported reception dresses. They
are worn alike by young and old ladies,
and may be made Of velvet, Of lace, of
wide MORE ribbon that has velvet

striped ribbon in the gay Algerienne
stripes, or in crosswise bayadefe stripes

dresses they begin on the sides under
the two large pleats or gathered full
ness that forms the train. They then
cross the hips like paniers, and are
knotted in front, and allowed to fall to
the foot Of the tablier, sometimes form
ing the entire drapery. Other sashes as
wide as scarfs curve across the front
like a short tablier, are united with the
drapery on one side with long loops and
ends, while the other end disappears
under the drapery on the opposite side.
Still Others form two long dropping
loops on the tournure after being tightly
strapped at the waist line, and below
these loops are two long forked ends of
the ribbon. Beaded fringe edges the
velvet sashes. The soft satin sash worn
with a Greek jacket is very pretty for
young girls. The colored velvet corsages
