The Manner IN which Salaries Of Ne nbers are
Drawn.

When member Of congress dies
his pay ceases on the day OF his death.
The salary of his successor commences
the day after the decease of the for
mer member, though the election may
not occur for several months. This
new member. in Other words. draws
pay for the time he never served. saws
the Washington Hatchet.
A member is allowed twenty cents
mileage each way. or forty cents a
mile both ways, and he can check fr
the full amount Of both trips when he
takes his seat. He is allowed Si,s A
yelr Tor stationery. The most of this
sum is pocketed.
There are probably twenty member,
Of the last house who let their salaries
run into nest eggs. Among these are
Scott and Everhart. OF Pennsylvania;
Powell, OF Illinois; Bou,elle of Maine:
Henly of CALIFORNIA;: Jones', Stewart
aud Regan, oi Texas: fllsburry. ol
Ohio; Stone OF Massachusetts, and
" lkeicld of Minnesota.
scott has over 4 years salary owing
hlm-about 80, 900. The other mean
bers mentioned have from 81 900 To
5000 to their credit.
There are a couple of dozen mem
b-rs who always overdraw, or rather,
borrow from the head ol the bunk.
Tncy borrow or get advance sum,
hanging rom $40 to f5oo and a, the
end of the month they have nothing.
The great majority OF the mcmbers
draw all that is coming to them at the
end OF each month, particularly those
who have their families with them.
Some of them never seen an outside
bank. but let their monthly salary
remain and draw ii out IN small Sums
Others take out their salaries and
place them ia other banks. But this

more before Judge Castenada's court
when the official minutes of the Chi
huahua supreme court which had ar
rived this morning were read to him

piled:

would give Cutting his liberty, accom-.
panied with some wholesome advice

Herald for which ! was arrested, foi
four weeks incarcerated and was being
tried at the time my government made
Il demand for ima cdiate release.
Ii is said on the other side of the
river that the Mexican constitution
prohibiting the residence Of agitator-
and othe dangerous characters within
the republic, will he strictly enforced

une reporter: "The tyranny of the
press IN this country is becoming
simply awful. 1t is worse than the
Old tyranny OF slave holders. 1t
will cause worse revolution than
slavery did, and it will not be blood
less either. Why, the gossip OF The
press has destroyed social freedom Of
intercourse; it has made men afraid
OF their neighbors; it has led to gen.
eral suspicion and distrust. No man
can open his mouth any more ard be
sure that his confidence will be re-
spected; no man can write to his ac-
quaintance and be sure that his letter
will not appear in print; there is no
comfort left in the land. / am old
and cannot be hurt by this condition
of things, but it will be the bane of
the rising generation, and they will
have to rebel against it. There will
be some sort of trouble, and then the
country will settle down again for a
while. 1t seems as though a man
who serves his country most is tar
