Pay and Perquisites of Memb TS | of Congress. |

: j

Members of Congress average about hd

a year. They are really

paid at the rate of a thousand dollars a| month. Their transportation to and from} Washington is liberally provided fot They | receive $125 a year for newspapers and | stationery. They vote themselves valu ble | bouks, and sometimes ell them. They

vote themselves boquets, plants, seeds, and | other things freely. . They are shaved, they } are bathed and perfumed (much tothe com || fort of some of their neighbors), and their)

months work in

boots are b} acke d at the puoie expense Many of them practice law and pursue | other vocations while in Congress. Some |

of them represent gre*t corporations, mono- polies, and special interests, receiving large retainers and contingent fees. They take ; turns to be absent, and it has become diffi | cult to preserve a quorum under the systen | of pairing off, which leaves constituencies, and often S:ates, without a vote.

The pay of a Congressman was originally | eight dollars a day. Then it was raised to $3,000 a year, and finally it was put at} $5,000. Distinguished Senator: and Re- | presentatives have become millionaires | without engaging in any other pursuit than | politics. Joha Sherman is only one of a} number of shining examples of thrift of | this sort.

he ;

The following story furnishes a fine ex- ample of duty inadog. It is told by a} London merchant, who hada Newfound- | land dog named Cwsar. Cwsar and his| master had gone from home together, and | while they were away the master found iu his pocket a key which he should have left | behind. He gave the key to the dog and} told him to take it back. This Ceesar | started off todo. On his way he was at- tacked by a butcher's dog, but he tore him- | self from his enemy and delivered the key in safety. Cvesar then returned by the road he came, hunted up the dog that had | attacked him, and then ensued a cémbat which lasteda long time, for it did not end until the dog that had.dared to interfere with another in the execution of his duty had been put beyond all chance of doing the like again. Cvesar killed him.

it 13 alleged that Captain Hooper, of the revenue cutter ‘‘Corwin,” who searched for the whalers and ‘‘ Jeannette” last year, and took possession of Wrangel Land, turned the voyage to private account by extensive trading with the Indians. He bought at Ounalaska a large stock of fire- arms, sugar, tea, and other goods and exchanged them for whalebone and ivory. | It is said that he bought goods on the Government account, and although on the | way back he settled the biil he had left the | matter in such a shape that had he been lost the Government would have been held for the bill, and it would never have come to the officiul knowledge that the transaction was,aswitdle. Hooper has been relieved | of his command and is here trying to fix the matter up.

A correspondent of the Leeds Mercury says: *‘The London seison is waning fast, and. the merriment waxes more furious than | ever. By the outward aspect no one would suppose the state of affairs both at home | and abroad was so serious. sion act aimed at organized assassination | jast. coming into force in Ireland, Alex- | andria in flames, and thousands of Chris- tians, lying slaughtered in its streets, the | great world of London has never been gayer.”

At the next meeting of the Senate of | Toronto University, Professor Loudon will | submit a scheme for abolishing scholarships paid out of University funds, rather look- | ing for private scholarships, and for redu cing the number of examinations for B. A., from thirteen, as at present, to five.
