Coxouessioxal pay and Mii.eage.--A Wash
ington correspondent of the New York Herald
s;p.o he often hears members complaining of
the sacrifices which they make in coming to
Congress.
Some idea of the sacrifices,” he thinks, mav
be inferred from the fact, that computing a
Congress, a long and short session, to be 50
weeks, at $S a day, a member receives, in per
diem, .si,Boo. It he come from Texas or
Louisiana, he gets about $5,000 mileage, a
sum for which he might make a tour of a
year in Europe ; his mileage and pay amount
together to $7,800. Annual expenses in Wash
ington, 1.000. Actual travelling foes, SSOO,
leaving $6,000 clear gain. New members re
ceive besides, $750 worth of books—s 26 are
allowed for stationary for a long session.—
Those are awful“ sacrifices,” no doubt, but we
fancy they are all on the part ot Uncle Sam.
“Will you give me them pennies, now?”
said a newsboy to a little one, after thumping
him most severely. “No, I won’t.” “Then
I’ll give you another pounding.” “Pound
away and be d—d. Me and Doctor Franklin
agrees—Doctor Franklin says, ‘Take care of
the pence, and the pounds will take care of
themselves.’ ”
“This is a sweeping catastrophe,” as the
man said when his wife knocked him down
with a broom.
