THE TRADITIONS OF THE SENATE.

shocking the Conservative Ideas of the
staid and solemn Senators.
1t has been an unwritten law in the senate
for half a century that a member OF that
body must remain in the background for sey-
eral years at least before he dares attract at
tention to himself by anything he may do or
saw. To do otherwise is to announce himself
fresh in the vernacular of the streets, while
uch senatorial martinets as EdnmndS, Sher-
man, Hoar, and Beck quietly inform him that
until he has passed his noyitiata, SO to
sneak, he must be seen and not heard OF
course this is very CALLING to any man of
sufficient prominence to be elected United
States senator. Blaine, If | am not mis-
taken, was the first newcomer who set at
defiance the hide-bound traditions of the
senate. There was a tacit understanding
among the more consery ative leaders on
both sides Of the chamber that Blame should
be crowded to the rear and kept there until
he was well disciplined. But Blaine would
have none of it He had served a long
apprenticeship in the house, and felt himself
the peer of any member of the senate.
Before a week passed he watched his OPP
portunity and sprang into debate in which
Thurman, Edmunds, Bayard and one or two
others were engaged, and scandahzed the de
corum of the body by making one OF his
fiery and aggressive speeches, common
enough in the house but shocking to the con-
servative ideas of the staid and solemn SEN
ate. This innovation by Blaine has been fol-
lowed with more or less success by Hawley,
FRYE, Hale, Cullom, Conger, and Evarts
a. L.,
TO public life With the exception of Mr.
Evarts each had served successive terms iT.

ferent state legislatures, while Mr.. Evarts,

Professor Hugo Maguas recently delivered
IN Berlin a lecture on The Speech of the
Ewes First he showed how various thoughts
and emotions may find their expression
through the eyes, how rage, joy, sadness,
sympathy, all may be indicated by one loaa
and how a question may be asked or be
replied to simply by one scarcely Observable
movement of the eye But the most interest
ing part of his lecture was a point with which
many a physician may not be acquainted, not
from ignorance, but simply because he has
never given the subject any thought, viz
the fact that all the various expressions of
which the eye is capable are not at all made
by the eye itself, g., by the eyeball, but by
the movements of neighboring parts The eye
itself may be stationary, not the least mo
ton may be observed in it, and yet the rails
ing of the lids expresses our surprise, half
closing them together with contraction of the
brow indicates our displeasure, and a peculiar
sbrillar-like movement of the lips, the orl,iu-
filaris palpebrarum. and the parts around the
nose together form what we are in the habit
of calling "a merry twinkle
Many a one who viii read these lines will
at once acknowledge that such is the case, ard
that the facts are as stated, but at the same
time he Will acknowledge that he had never
thought about it, and had never imagined
that as all the manifold expressions which We
ascribe to the eye-the mirror of the soul
the eye itself has no share, When a criminal
has his character pictured in his eyes it is not
they that tell us the moral depravity of the
man, but the play of the neighboring muscles,
which, perhaps, for years always obeying the
impulse from the brain form together the
group We call physiognomy.-M Medical and

NOTHING could be more unjust than the
comments of the London press 90 the
Chicago riots which imply that the Irish
citizens are in some manner responsible
for the socialistic outbreak As matter
of fact the IRISH, of all the races that so
TO make up the great and composite city
of Chicago, are least tainted with the
red flag madness. This is, OF course,
largely due TO the conservative influen {
of the Catholic church, but i'll addition
