After listening to the rough Jokes Of
the clown and watching the gymnas
ties OF the Circus to-day, do not forget
that to morrow night will be exhibited
in Firemen's Hall the Son Of Monte
Christie.
Mr.. Liudon's dramatization of Dumas
sequel to the now famous Count of
Monte Crlsto." In the play Albert
Dantes takes up the vengeance of his
father at the latter's death. while
Danglers and his wife transfer their
hatred to the son. OF course Dantes
tfilmpls in the end, Staying Danclers
and Behesitto, the Legitimate son q,
Nine. DANGERS, who falls Il victim to
the dagger Of her offspring. The love
Of DANGERS daughter for young Monte
Crlsto furnishes the romantic element
of the piece, while an awkward Irish
corporal i'll the French army relieves
the sombreness of the story with Il
touch of comedy. Frank Lindou
played the lero's part with considera-
Bile strength and grace, and Geo. NJ.
Hayes as Beneditto, May Seymour ms
Eugene, and Ella Mason as Toinette
give him fair support.
The above taken from the Daily
Picaynne shows this play to be a
charming one.

passed an act to require the govern
ment to purchase four million dollars
of silver bullion each month and issue
silver certificates for the same. This
was done at the demand of the Wall
street gold men, whose only interest
and objects are to fatten upon the
plumber they can unrighteously rob
from the toiling masses. Mr.. Price
also touched upon the t%yrannicnl rules
of the Reed house, and showed its I'M
jnst workings and base objects.
The universal expression in the au-
dience was one of qualification and
pleasure at the speech made by their
member of Congress. 1t was not only
able and instructive, but often eloquent.
In his closing tribute to the ladies,
he was peculiarly happy and eloquent.
At the close of his address, Mr.. l..
z. Caillouet came forward, and in some
pleasing remarks, presented Mr.. Price
with a magnificent wreath Of flowers,
prepared by the hands of the ladies of
Lafourche, to which the recipient re-
piled in feeling and affecting words.
The chairs were then removed and
the young democracy took the floor
and amused themselves in the pleasures
of the dance, until the midnight hour
had passed, when the multitude dis
persed, all proud and happy of the
success of the meeting. Fully 1000
people were present, Of whom 500 we're
ladies'.

Reader, did you ever see a shanghai
rooster find Il loose grain of corn on
the ground, aud, then call all his fami-
ly around him. always careful to pick
it up before any of his flock could
reach it ?
Reed, in the 51st Congress, when he
finds any thing nice, can go into some
little room, and, cali his little SQUAD
of Republicans about him, and, whilst
they stand around him he can put his
goodies into his pipe and smoke
them.
Reed will not stand up much ard
declaim his little piece that he has
spoken SO often of late.

The fifty-first Congress will have
less than 100 Republican members. of

are the tyrant Reed aud force bill
Lodge. Mckinley, the leader in the
house, Cannon, the foul mouth, and
Rowe!, the three plant tools of Reed,

babies, whilst their places will be oc-
cupied by patriots. Another grand
benefit of the recent expression of pub
lie opinion is that Evarts with bis long
sentences will retire from the senate
and give place to a good Democrat,
and Spoone., of Wisconsin, the foul
slanderer of the Southern people can
bevail his fate among the mountains

And then there is the punishment of
Quay, in Pennsylvania, by the election

And also the election of Russell for

The vote that Hon. Andrew Price
received in the parish of Lafourche on
last Tuesday was $3.50. This was a
great compliment to that gentleman
it shows that his friends and neighbors
appreciate his services. and that to
make known that appreciation, they
have abandoned their cane fields. their
work shops and other business simply
to cast q vote, knowing that there was
no necessity for sodoing, many colored
men threw down their cane knives
and marched to the polls to vote for
the man who would see that they
would receive every right that Justice
and fair dealings entitle them to re-
ceive This vote was within 500 votes
Of that he received in 1889 in his ia

the natives. in hustling for o liveli-
hood was forcibly Illustrated on the
arrival of the English steamer Pari-
sian at Portland. Among uhe Pari-
slams passengers was an Italian scis-
sors grinder, who stood near the
gangwayswith his machine on his
back, and who was one of the first
to set foot on the wharf. LII he had
any ''ffrst impressions" of America,
he did not make note of them as did
Max O'Rell and other distinguished
foreigners. He had no baggage to
look after, other than his apparatus
for putting an edge on things and
being free from care he was naturally
lighthearted and gay. He didn't
bother his head about looking up
boarding house, but at once oiled up
his machine, placed his tools III read
mess for use, and within thirty min
utes after getting on shore he was
seen going up India street ringing
his bell for business. Welcome, well
come, blithe grinder, to the ranks of
our useful citizen!-Lewiston Journal

on account of the hills. covered with trees
lying in the direction from which it came,
it was either not noticed by the occupants
of the two houses, or if seen was not
