WISE AND BRADY.-While the House Of

not only with Mr.. Springer, chairman ofthe
committee Of the whole, but with Others"
Before Mr.. Wise could make any reply,
Mr. Morrison came forward and declared
Indignantly: "We have had quite enough Of
irrelevant matter, and protest against it.
I Will have no more of it,"
Mr.. Wise made another attempt to pro-
coed, but he was again Interrupted by Mr.
Brady with the exclamation that he had
been misrepresented enough elsewhere and
would not be missrepresented here.
Mr.. Wise said that he did not wish to
initiate Or follow the bad example of those
who had gone before him. He wanted to
declare that he wished to occupy the floor
not upon the whisky bill, but in reply to
his colleagues speech.
Mr.. Brady-"That is what stated with
regard to the Fitz John Porter bill before /
made my speech"
The Chairman.-"The gentleman having
stated that he did not intend to discuss the
question now under debate, the chair thinks
he is out order"
Mr.. Wise-"I rise now to question of
privilege"
The Chairman.-"The gentleman is out
of order in committee"
Mr.. Wise.-"Is it permissible under the
order of the House made yesterday for rae
to speak on Saturday."
The Chairman replied that that was
question to be decided by the then chairman
of the committee.
WELL" said Mr.. Wise, II will take the

MIR. GooDE.-Solicitor. General Goode as
serts that the charges understood to have
been fled against him before the Senate
judiciary committee are utterly false. He
says he had no connection, directly OF
Indirectly, with any election frauds in Vir.
ginia or elsewhere, and Indignantly denies
that he has ever been guilty of bribery or
other corrupt practices. The charge that
he received $500 for procuring an Office for
man he pronounces to be without the
slightest foundation. He attributes The
charges to Malone, who he says lie his per.
sonal enemy, and he also says he courts the
fullest investigation by the Senate.

TIE LOUISIANA delegation in Congress
are unanimously opposed to the Morrison
tariff bill, because it reduces the duty on
sugar, aud will urge the Ways and Means
Committee of the House to alter the bill in
that respect. There is little reason to be
sure in reducing the duty on sugar, the
product solely of Louisiana, and of main
tanning it on wool, the product of nearly all
the States. 1t is apparent that unless there
be radical changes in the Morrison bill it
will fail to pass even the House, let alone
the Senate.

Outside Interference

CHICAGO, Feb. 25.-Three of the owners
and managers of the McCor mick Reaper
Works gave an interview TO two delegates
from the strikers yesterday. 1t is said the
delegates conceded that the trouble of ar

THURSDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY %.
The MEMBERS of the Legislature in one

The MEMBERS of the Legislature in one
breath say the State is too poor 10 pay tne
interest on her public debt, and in the next
one vote for local option law that VIII re-
duce the annual revenue at least two hun
dred thousand dollars. If such law wouio
prevent drunkenness, there might be some
excuse for its enactment: but those best &C.
ouainted with its operation elsewhere know
that it will not diminish the quantity OF
liquor consumed in the State to the extent
ofa gallon It's only effect, except that OF re-
ducing therevenue ofthe State will be to ben
eft liquor sellers outside ofVirginia, and those
in the State who will continue their busl-
ness without the expense of the license
The absurdity OF the whole thing is apparent
by the fact that the manufacture of liquor IN
the State is not prohibited.

On MONDAY next three months of the
present session of Congress will have expir.
ed, and yet in all that time only four bills
have passed and become laws, and
with one exception, they, 80 far as
the country is concerned, might just
as well not have passed: the Presidential
succession bill, bill to pay the claims
of certain loyal citizens in some Of
the Southern States, a bill to fit up rooms
in the patent Office, and bill for the bene-
fit of the Indians in Montana. The present
Congress is evidently not rapid worker.

pledge of each member of the Legislature TO

Cultivate AN ENEMY

Never be afraid of good, active
enemy. People that don't amount
to ANYTHING never have enemies,
any more than trees that don bear
fruit are stoned for apples. The
fact that you have an enemy proves
that you are alive. No sense in
crlticising dead people! Enemies
are what hoes are to potato hills
they keep down the weeds. The
cultivator, as 1t goes tearing be-
tween the corn hlllocks. brings all
the useless weeds to grief, but it
sets the tassels of the coming corn
atilt like an emerald plume. Our
friends, sometimes, like the faith
less Delilah, lull us into danger
Gus sleep, wherein we are despoiied
of strength and the qualities that
constitute manhood or womaEood.
but like the mesquite, our enemies
keep us wide awake or active.
Disease never came from river
that has rocky channel, and Is
forced to fret and batter its way
over the stones: but rivers that
never run are not rivers; we call
them ponds. and the serenity of
their course breeds stagnation.
Give a ycuug man hard line to
fight, with plenty Of discourage
ments and adverse criticism, and
he will come out into middle age
like ship coming into harbor;
Staupch and trim. Give HIM lux
urious life of petted idleness, with
no enemy to keep down the weeds,
and he will sail into port from mid
sea, by downward plunge to the
bottom.
Our friends are apt to be blind to
our faults, our enemies never.
Through the fattery of the former
we grow in the wrong direction
as Aldermen do, about the girth.
Through all the impetus of critl-
cism, which shows us our faults
and teaches us for pride's sake to
AVOID them, we grow as Norway
pines; straight upwards, towards
Heaven. Then cultivate enemies.
and beware of the partiality of
friends. The one will make man
of you, the other will turn you into
the mold of a pint cup, unable to
hold the measurement of true char
acters development - Times-Re-

nail for the interests of Nevada. in
the Senate. Exactly the reverse is
true. His action has been simply
a piece of stupid neglect of the in
terests of this State from the start.
How can they explain that he al
lowed the Appropriation Commit
tee to overlook the appropriation
for the Mint when they made pro-
visions for all others? Where was
the active Senator all this time?
When the matter came up In the
House the commission did not es-
cape the eye of the vigilant Wood
burn and he inserted an amend
meat.
1t is matter Of fact that Fair,
who is Democratic, as is the Ad-
ministratisn. let the matter go by
default, and our Republican Con-
gresham corrected the error.
From this on. the man who talks
about Fairs efforts in opening the
Mint will simply be laughed at as a
fool. FAIR is now at his home in

wine with her to the house of friend who
was teetOtaler, is causing much amuse-

on entering the dning-rOom to see ia very

order its removal when one of the servants
