tOX RETORTS.
Sunset Replies iu Style to Representa¬
tive Wofflh'i.-, of Nevada.
Congressional Record.
Names are not much in a debate,
but as the gentleman has spread my
middle name—Sullivan—on the Re¬
cord I must anlayze that also a little
in return, by saying that Sullivan is
from the La in ‘-Scl’’ and “levant.”
Sun Rise ! j L lughter.] My ances
tor came fr.the East, I went
back at his reflux wave. [Laughter]
I may mention confidently that one
of my ancestors carried a hod at the
building of Solomon’s Temple.
[Laughter.] All I know of the
family is that a recent ancestor came
over from Ireland with Lord Balti¬
more, He was in good company. I
need not enlarge further.
There is another test of Celtic
blood to which I may refer, as it is so
pertinent to the Mills bill. The
gentleman from Nevada will be pleas
cd to know that his championship of
the Tory protectionists of England
indicates that he leans toward, if he
does not belong to, the bluest blood
of landed aristocracy of England.
Evidently the speech of the gentle
man was made for the purpose of
prejudicing the Irish against the detn
ocracy, by reason ot their dislike
to their English oppressors. But bis
arrow falls far short of the mark.
This gentleman was pleased to say
something complimentary of myself
as a member of the Democratic party,
and referred to me as a rep esenta
tive of a cosmopolitan constituency
in a cosmopolitan city. He spelleii
my nam 3 at full and more than inti
mated that I became a member of
the Cobden Club, a “nobleman’s
foriegn aesociation,” as he phrased
it.
Tais remark of the gentleman from
Ni :da seems to have been well re
ceivu<l by the House. Tr be more
exact, let me qnute his language:
“At the same time, to my utter
astonishment, I find one of the fore
most men of the Democratic party, a
distinguished author, wit and humor
ist, a representative of cosmopolitan
constituency in a cosmopolitan city,
Samuel Sullivan Cox, became a mem
ber of the nobleman association.”
By the brackets I notice, though I
did not hear the speech, that this
was received with laughter and ap
plause.
1 atn at a less how to discriminate
I have no special vanity, but I sup¬
pose the applause was intended for
myself «3 a foremost Democrat, au
tbor, wit, humorist, and Representa¬
tive [Laughter,] and the laughter
was at tiie gentleman’s expense for
associating me with noblemen, as
such people run nowadays in and out
of divorce courts in England.
Mr. Chairman, 1 am not altogether
certain that the gentleman should
be laughed at for calling me a noble
tnan. I have had some sort of a
decoration given me oy a deseendeot
*
of lJje Cttlrtplis ani ] lhc Sultans. But
the nobility which I most admire is
not that ol mere title. I have almost
forgotten my honors abroad; and I
did dearly yearn for the society of
you gentlemen. [Laughter.] All
the pride I have is to be a common

“Cobwebs” is the latest' form of
evening imbecility. It originated
in Texas. If the Massachusetts or
Maine seal had been put upon the
it would have seemed quite
proper. But Texas! The game is
this way: All join in a ring
with a blindfolded gentleman in the
center. He selects a young lady,
who enters the ring, and he trie3 to
catch her, saying: “Fly, fly, where
thou?” The lady replies, “Here
I,” and at the same time she en
deavors to keep out of bis way. The
lady in her efforts to elude the spider,
as the gentleman is called, must not

man, both blindfolded as before’, and
the same rules apply to the lady
when she plays spider as to the
gentleman. The gentleman who

is the winner of the evening, and is
called the chief spider. He is pre

lady longest being caught is

a wreath of butter flies.
