SCARED OUT OF HIS WITS.

A gentleman who does business in Mis-
sissippi, but who does his voting just across
the Mississippi River in Arkansas, thought he
was in very hard luck when he was refused
Enforcement by both Congressional delegations
of those States the ArkansaDs refusing to in-
dorss him because ne Was practically Mis-
gissippan while the Mississippi delegation re-
fused to take him under their wing because he
was domiciled in Arkansas. Consequently he
concluded to 90 it alone. and be called npon
the President day last week and sent in
his card. Being admitted to Mr.. Cieyeland's
presence he was considerably awed by the
dignity OF that gentleman, but hs began
pleading his cause, saying:
Mr.. President, l am handful of American
citizens trsyeiing-no that's not it Mr.
President, arn a plain American citizen, who
has no influence beyond the respect and esteem

Col. Erastus d. Webster died st the residence
of his law, Capt. Lusk. on street north
west, on Wednesday, March 20. The funeral
service was held at Capt Lusk's residence on
Friday, after which the body was taken to
Orchard Park, n. Y, for interment.
Col. Webster was natiye Of Auburn, N. T.,
and learned the printers trade at Buffalo. In
ISiS he established antislavery paper at
Springfield, N. Y. In 1859 he established the
Omaha Republicans. which was said to be the
first Republican daily ever published west of
the Mississippi River. From 1861 to 1865 be
was the Private Secretary of William FL. Sew
ard, Secretary of State. While acting in that
capacity he delivered the Confederate commits
s0ners, Mason and Slidel, TO the commander
OF the British man of war Rnaido, on January
!, 1862; and in 1864 under safe-conduct,
went on secret mission inside the Confederate

appointed Consul at Bradford, England; in
1867 Deputy Surveyor of the port of New York,
and in 1868 Assessor of Internal Revenue for
the 32d District of New York, where he made a
great fight against the bankers aud brokers of
Wall street. compelling them to pay the war
tax on the capital employed in their business.
In 1878 he was appointed Superintendent Of
immigration by Gov Dix. and four years later

How Getting the Mitten" Originated.

The Boston Transcript thus explains tbs
phrase "gettiBg the mitten": One hundred
years ago gloves were unknown in the country
towns Mittens were knitted and worn in all
families. If young man going home from
singing school with the young girl OF his choice
was holding her mittened hand to keep il from
getting cold and took that opportunity to
urge his suit, if the offer proved acceptable, the
hand would remain. If taken by surprise, an
effort to withdraw the hand would leaye the
mitteu. So the suitor would "get the mitsen,"
but would not get the hand. The use of the
word "muff." meaning foolish. laundering
person, also has an easy explanation; a stupid
youth was said TO be ''muf" because like the
article of feminine wear called by that name,
he held a woman's hand without squeezing isi
The sedate old times were not without their
gallantries.

REPUBLICANS WILL RESIST.

Immediately after the Senate adjourned On
Thursday, March %. the Republican Senator'S
went into caucus to consider the proposition
made to them recently by the Democrats rela-
tive to the reorganization of the Senate. This
caucus was largely attended, and BY a practi-
eally unanimous vote decided to reject all
offers of compromise aud to contest the reorgan-
ization Of the elective officers of the Senate 20
the end. 1t il thought that at the next Execa-
tive session OF the Senate the utimatGm of the
caucus will be given to the Democrats. 1t is
thought that there will then be made an effort
to settle the whole matter behind closed doors,
and, this failing, the fight will then be trans
ferred to tho opensesson. An amusing feature
of the controversy is that the Republicans
think that the Democrats will not insist on pro-
ceeding to change the elective officers of the
Senate at this extra session, because there is no
precedent for such action, while the Democrats
assert that the Republicans will grow tired in
n day or two. No more caucuses on this SUBJ
Iect will probably be held by either party.

PRESIDENT LiNCoLN's PEW
Replaced Ia Position in the New York Ave
nue. Presbyterian Church.

Replaced Ia Position in the New York Ave-
nue. Presbyterian Church.
The principal object of attraction at the New
York Avenue Presbyterian Church for the past
twoSundays was the old fashioned black walnut
pew which was occupied by Abraham Lincoln
when he attended services there while Presi-
dent Of the United States. The pew has been
replaced pursuant to vote of the congregation
at the annual meeting a couple of weeks ago.
The pew stands in the tier Of seats on the
north aide Of the middle aisle, aud il the
eighth fren the front. Il will be occupied by
the family Of DR.. Bartlett, the pastor, a brother
of Gen. Joseph J. Bartlett. recently deceased.
The Lincoln pew now occupies the place Of tho
pew ia which Attorney General Miller and
family worshiped during thoir stay in Wash
iugtou. The pew vacated by DR.. Bartletts
family will probably be occupied by the family
of Vics-President Stevenson, who will make
their church home on Nav York avenue.
The Lincoln pew is of the same length as the
other pews in the section in which it is placed,
but is lowsr and narrower. The old cushion
has been preserved, and It's stiff haircloth cover
ing indicates it's age as distinctly as any other
feature. Being made of walnut. its presence
in the midst of body of bright oak seats at
once attracts attention. Since the refurnIsh-
ing Of the church, several years ago, the pew
has done duty in one of the parl0rs connected
with the Sunday-schooi room below. It's place
there has been taken by the bench removed to
make room for it in jts old place.
