THE HANKING BILL.
A •joint - Committee of the ’House
and a bank bill
which itrfftutroped will be an object

mittee hosbeen vjorking, as it were,
in the rough, whacking away at the
Calvin bill and holding the V each
bill in reserve as a sort of impending
amendment. It is to be hoped that
the committee will go slow and take
counsel of experience, for whatever
they present to the House is likely
to affect the sentiment of congress
one way or the other. If they make
a good bill it will help the repeal
of the tax on state bank issues, but
if they make a bad one or an indif
ferent one,, it will have the contrary
effect.
We understand that the committee
will invite a number of the most ex-

HOW PATRICK HENRY BECAME A
LAWYER.
The new magazine, “Blue anij
Gray,” has an entertaining acount
of Patrick Henry’s entrance to
the war:
“During this year of seeming idle
ness, young Henry conceived the
idea of becoming a lawyer. Digging
in the soil would not yield him a
livelihood; -drawing molasses and
measuring tape had produced the
same barren result. But words
never failed him. He could move or
melt any audience before whom he
might stand. Therefore, he deter
mined to earn his living by his
tongue.
“The wonderful mental capacity of
this broken down farmer and mer
chant may be understood when we
learn that after a very few weeks of
reading and study, he presented
himself at Williamsburg before the
examiners, and was admitted to the
bar! Not, however, without much
urging and entreaty, for the exam
iners soon discovered the paucity of
his knowledge of the statutes. In
spite of his ignorance of the forms
and technicalities, young Henry
pleaded his own case so well that he
received his license, not at all be
cause of his legal proficiency, but
solely because of his ingenuity and
the promise he gave of future use
fulness. One of the examiners, Mr.
John Randolph, was so much shock -
ed by the uncoutk"~appearance of
the man. that he at first refused to
axamine him. But he ' shortly dis
covered that the candidate was a
diamond in the rough, and after
subjecting him to a most severe
series of subtle and intricate queries,
he was forced to remark, “Mr. Hen
ry, if your industry be only half
your genius, I augur that you will
do well and become an ornament and
jin
worcts!’ ’ -
of a very queer law suit
comes from Paris, says the New
York Post. During last season a
house in the Avenue de Neuilly was
suddenly and unaccountably in
fested by rats. They swarmed all
over the place, and what was pe
culiarly irritating, seemed to confine
themselves to that one house. The
owner managed to trap one of the
swarm, and, having a mechanical
mind, constructed a wire noose,
which he was able to slip around
the captive’s head. This collar was
furnished with a small silver bell,
set,
■I \ ’
fthat that special house in the
HftKe de Neuilly had peace at
last. Near by there lived a studi
ous gentleman of nervous tempera
ment, the plaintiff in the forthcom
ing action. He was wakened in the
night by a curious tinkling sound,
which came on fitfully, and seemed
to proceed from every corner of the
room. He lit a candle, and timor
ously proceeded to search. There
was nothing visible, and yet the
mysterious sound was distinctly
audible. He tried to think it was
imagination, but, failing, decided it
must be ghosts. It was clear his
house was haunted—and haunted,
too, by day as well as by night.
For weeks he could not sleep, and
the anxiety told on his health. Ac
1 ist a gossiping servant learned the
truth, and the victim, instead of
laughing at bis own credulity, has
begun an action against the man
who belled the rat.
Senator Corput is a wheel horse.
He put the registration bill through
the Senate in short order. The tax
payers of Floyd are with him.
Mr. Corput’s registration bill is
as good a thing as the Australian
ballot to puiify elections.

“All Men are Liars.”
Once said a wise man of the East, but we are
convinced this man had never read one of
W„ M. Gammon & Co.s’ advertisements and
then examined their stock of Fine Clothing
Hats and Furnishing Goods. They make
it wpoint to always tell the truth in regard
to quality, style and price. They desire to
call the attention of the people of this sec
tion to the fact that they carry the best and
most perfect-fitting suits and overcoats
known to the trade.
The finest and most stvlkh Hats made
on this continent, and the newest and nob
biest things in Neckwear, Underwear or any
other wear that can be used by man, boy or
child. They not only do this, but they make
the prices as low, or lower than any other
house dares to name. We propose to do
the clothing business in Rome. We carry
the stock to please the people and say to
every one, visit our store, and if first-class
goods, low prices and honest dealing will
make you a customer, you are ‘ourn.”
