A •joint - Committee of the ’House and a bank bill which itrfftutroped will be an object lesson to..congress. So far, the com 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- J perienced and reputable bankers in ■ icTappear and give practi- This course is a one, and will very likeh out ; 11 " 1 oi ' tll '' ’■ ft 11 r I ' : ' '" ■ : ' 1 systems that work conne.’tion we call , |l||l| SSIII i, ft, ft ft \ k ft' ft *•“-. ; • ■wTnij <t seem t o the eonsid It seems to for granted that wh m as a ft ' ' ' ■BBBBBBWK■ rs of the committee to know what other safe ftHftfßan be found, we invite their BKtion to a description of the system, given in the Fo rtum in the latter part of 1891 by the superintendent of circulation.

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.
