collectively, 1s dis} osed to forever point the finger of scorn at her large and growing neighbor, Philadelphia.

Not long ago a prisoner was before a New York judge charged with attempt- ed suicide, and the judge, being a man who lived on Easy street, where it was subuy in winter and sbady in summer, frowned fiercely on the culprit because be couldn’t understand how any man would want to quit this life until he was forced to do so.

**Your honor,’’ pleaded the culprit, looking into the trowning faco of jus- tice, ‘‘there were witigating circum- stances, ’’

The judge frowned more fiercely at the thought of offering an excuse for such a crime and said nothing.

“*But there were, your honor,’’ insist- ed the prisoner. ‘‘The firm 1 am work- ing for informed me last Saturday night that I would have to go to Philadelphia to live, as they were compelled to make a change,’’

The judge’s entire demeanor under- ‘went a rapid transformation.

‘‘Great goodness!’’ he exclaimed in a horrified tone. ‘‘be prisoner is acquit- ted and the clerk will please make out @ warrant for the arrest of the firm for assault with iatent to kill.’’—Washing-

before, had voted against a bill for an appropriation to assist Ireland during a time of famine. He himself had done

| yeoman work for the passage of the bill, | while this other mau, who was now

asking their support, had done every- thing possible to defeat it. It was a fine point, and the speaker made the most of it, burping before it the lamp of his eloguence until the crowd were wild with excitement. Then Henry sat down, and Johnson got up amid catcalls and scoffs to answer him.

‘‘What my opponent has told you is he said. ‘‘lreland was suffering, and I voted against an appropriation for her relief, for the money which it was thus proposed to give away was not mine, but yours; yours because it was in the public coffers. I refused to give away money which did not belong to

) me, but I went dowm-into my own pock-

et and oat of my own private funds—~ which I bad a right. to bestow—I sub- scribed $260 to the relief fund which was being quietly raised. How much of his own money did Mr. Henry give? Nota cent. He was too busy trying to give away yours. Now, gentlemen, which of us two did the better part by suffering Ireland?’ The effect of this was magical. The catealls were now for Henry and the cheers for Johnson.

Thus the campaign went on, ending in a victory for the ex-tailor, who once more took his place among the statesme of the land. But.his term was a short one, for death soon claimed him. But he left behind him a reputation asa ‘‘stump”’ speaker which abides still upon the hustings down im Tennessee. —Chicago Times-Herald.
