Washington, March 9.—A circus in the
House of Representatives beats any other
circua in the world, because the feats of
dramatic gesture and oratorical agility are
impromptu and performed without any
previous programme or rehearsal. It i» u
succession of surprises.
Nowhere else in the world outside of the
House of Commons orra lunatic asylum

increased, and iiu*v and then, without
turning his face toward him, spoke a few
words in a voice which the presiding
ollicercould hear. The Speaker generally
accepted the decision and repeated it with
out a word.
On every side members were shouting
angry retorts and inaudible jokes, derhand-
ing the floor and “a vote,” and for half an
hour the noise was so tremendous that the
official reporter could not catch any of the
Speaker’s words except bjr going and hold-

I’ig Iron Kelly.
liourke Cockran walked up ahd down
the aisles with his hands in his pockets,
his fat face and chubby head and body
inevitably suggesting the fat boy in Pick
wick, ami one felt like reaching down
from the gallery, taking him by the collar
and shouting: “Herel Wakoupl Wake
up!” s
The circus was calculated to make the
head ache, but it was not without a little
humorous relief. For instance:
Mr. Cowles, of North Carolina—Mr.
Speaker! Mr. Sjieakerl Mr. Spca-kerr!
The Speaker (after a while)—The (
th man from North Carolina—
[Hubbub for ten minutes, during which
time Cowles, red in the face, vainly strove
m make himself heard. At last!]
’ “Mr. Speaker, 1 wisli to ask a question
of the gentleman in charge of the bill.”
The Speaher—The gentleman from
North Carolina desires to ask a question of
the gentleman from 8outh Carolina.
Tumultuous laughter, warm applause
and a rush tothefront with cries of “What
i. it?” “State the question!” “Count me
in !" “I feel the same way!”
Richardson, of Tennessee—I trust the
gentleman from South Carolina will meet
'■It- qui stion of the gentleman from North
Carolina in a proper spirit.
More laughter, qm stions, cross-questions
and general cachittation.
Mdliken, of Maine—Will the gentle
man lay aside his bill for temporary ad
journment?
Cox—No I No! I hope our friends, tlie
enemy, will not solace themselves for the
| loss of the White Plume by substituting
cocktail.
L’proarous laughter, amid which Dibble
I bit Ids nails and waited for another chance
to forge ahead. A dozen members were
I smoking in different parts of the House,
ia violation of the rulea which prescribe
that all smoking shall be abaft the green
baize screen.
Bland, who stood mopping till bald head
with a red handkerchief, now once more
insisted on a “division,” and the members
rro.cd to the area in front of the Speaker's
desk and wedged them, two by two, be
tween the tellers to he counted. The lines
of tired members came down the aisle,
from nil directions to the point of conver
gence and thence emerged in a single pro
cession, reminding one of the operation of
a spinning penny or a silk filature.
They straggled back to their scats and
the racket of bedlam broke forth again.
And so the lionre went by in a continuous
battle. Mr. Dibble got two of hi.
cabinet minister halted her carriage in an
unfamiliar neighborhood, and soon found
heaself climbing stairs to the first floor,
where the lady whose card she bore was
said to live. 8he was received with an ob-
sequiuus cordiality, and five minutes laler,
just as she was retreating, the lady brought
forth a box of bvMituuiiy-paiiueu fans ami
embroidered parasols. •
“I make these,” she said. “I cannot call
upon rich people to sell them, for tho ser
vants will not lot me in; so I call on them
and get them to return niv call, and that
gives me my chance,. Now, 1 want to show
yon this.”
The surprised lady rose and look her
leave. "I forgive you,” she said. “I shall
not buy anything, hut I' will give yon a
piece ol advice; If you nrcgoing to carry
on business of this kind in this way you
might at least live on the first floor.”

whom Mr. Blaine is most frequently
likened hv his admirers.. Martin Van
Buren defeated WvUinm Henry Harrison
in 18311, only to he defeated by Harrison in
1840. Mr. Van Daren, however, was not
satisfied with this- defeat, but subjected
himself to nnotlitr in 1848. Gen. John C.
Fremont bended st ticket la ISuSaml again
in 1864; the first time he stayed in the
canvass to the end, and Ills vote was
counted, when Buchanan led him by sixty
electoral halbusf the second time he with
drew in the midst of the autumn campaign, *
and left General McClellan to fight it out
with President Lincoln.
Mr. Blaine, therefore, would be at no

I would be very glad to get the office anil

for I had taken no further steps in the
matter, the mail brought me my comiub,

the Illinois Senate at Springfield, but I
went right up to Chicago. The town
had only about 350 people then,

Col. Taylor's recollections of Andrew
Jackson are not sufficiently distinct to he
of value. He saw him once or twice at
the White House, and was in Wn-hington
at both of hi* inaugurations. He is par
ticularly cnlhntiaatie over Jaekson’s De
mocracy, and believes tli.it to the victors
belous the spoil*. Ills acquaintance
w ith President Lincoln was much more
intimate, and lie carries an autograph let
ter from Lincoln in which ho takes great
pride. Not only does he value the auto
graph, hut the letter is a certificate that he
originated greenbacks in this country. It
