From T. A. Trollope's "What Remember"1
was one of very gay and pleasant din
ner party given by an American lady, at
which Lisxt and Senator Mamiani, then octo-
genarian and a good bit more. were among
the guests. After dinner, which had been q
tempt was made to induce Liszt to 20 to the
piano, which had been carefully Introduced
into the room, and disguised by cloths into
the innocent semblance of a sideboard. We
all knew that the enterprise in hand was
likely to be difficult one, for the great mu-
sioian was apt to be somewhat chary in re-
spending to such impromptu calls upon him;
and in fact he showed manifest signs of not
being minded to conply with the treaties Of
those around him, till Mamiani said, "Mass-
tro, will you 60 to the instrument If beg
you to do 80 on my knees2"
IT cannot answer for what might happen
under such circumstances, said the old mu-
sician, shaking his flowing white locks, ''for
! never had q senator on his knees before
me-"
No sooner were the words out of his lips
than Mamiani, not only senator, but one of
the most illustrious Of the senate, and with
his eiehty-four or eighty.five years still az
playful as boy-Q beg pardon of the young
gentlemen of this inf, mean of this re-
markably we'll educated generation; as play
full, would say, as q boy of le bon vieux
temps)--jumped up, ran around the table,
and, with napkin in hand-I can see the two
venerable white old heads now, laughing into
each others eyes--plumped down on both
knees before him. Liszt, placing his hands
on the kneeling senator's shoulders to help
him In rising from his chair, went to the In.

of the Republican proposition TO the extent

songs for the republicans, making out.
lsndish faces and cute CREATIONS. The
Chicago Netes of today says he has been
appointed over a soldier postmaster at
Macomb. The soldiers can now UNDER
stand that in Congressman Gest's esti-
nation il is greater in the sight of
republicans to be a political campaign
singer and political manipulation than a
defender OF ones country in a soldiers
uniform. BY looking over the appoint
ments all over the country, they can
learn the same lesson as that taught in
the appointment of hlgh-private' at-home
Cash. Ia fact, 1t seems in the Tenth and
Eleventh districts the republicans regard
the soldiers much In the light they do the

about election time, but they must keep
still after that until next election, when
much ado over them will be rep 'ated. 49,

There were no signs Of violence, and II

tracks were found close to the rivers edge
and the river was dragged for two or three

Plenty of Friendships Also.
But there are plenty of friendships amonl:
senators-many more than there are OF
feuds. The great majority are, as a whole
much like big club, and they associate
more like college boys than like Democrats
aud Republicans. Many of the states have
,enators who are friendly to each other, and
Spooner and Sawyer work together. Becl,
aud Blackburn are often seen arm in arm
and Beck has friends on both sides of tho
chamber. One of the most popular seua
torsis Senator Stanford. The friend
ship of Palmer and Henderson was one o.
the noticeable things of the chamber. Vest
Of Missouri and Pugh of Alabama are great
friends, though they hold different views OF
thstariff question, and you may often see thoSo
two rough diamonds known as George an6
Cockrell hobnobbing together. Philetus
Sawyer, the millionaire Wisconsin senator,
is as broad as he is long, while Payne OF
Ohio is about as fat as a match; but the two
are great chums Don Cameron is the
bosom friend of Butler of South Carolina
Most of Don's loves and hates come down
from his father TO him. He hated Van wycl
of Nebraska because the latter made a bitter
attack on old Simon some years ago, and il
is said that his friendship for Butler had its
origin in a favor done Simon Cameron by
Buffers uncle, Pierce Butler.
