A New Broil on tit Old Orldlrnn.
At a late session of the LeB!ilatnr4 In llamr
burp, Mr. GrabaU, from Sctemup c muty,
called np tbe resolution provldln that tbe right
to rstablibb passenger railways upon all the
streets, lanes, court', and aMrys tn th R.-e-tnngular
City which are not preoccupied by
existing Hue:, shall be granted to Johu Smivn,
John Jones, and John Thomson. He supported
this proposition in an eloquent speech, showing
thut it was the most popular measure that hnd
ever been brought forward in any age or conn- I
try, inasmuch as one citizen out of every
tweiity-Cve thousand on the lino ol the propose 1
roads had signed a petition in its favor. Hq
claimed that, as the other 24,000 cill.cr.s would
bear of the law after it was passed, their asscut
could be presumed from their failure to get up
antagonistic petitions tn advance of their
knowledge of the intentions of the Legislature;
and be alleged that the new law bad not been
opposed by more than nine out ot ten of tho
newspapers of the city. He also proved that tho
Committee on Supplies, who had closely inves
tigatcd the subject, were fully satisfied that it
was "a good thing;" and be hoped that no
member present was so lost to a scute of self
respect and to the privileges of tho House as to
quarrel with the bread and butter of his fellow
members.
Mr. Overnlce offered an amendment. He
thought It possible thai something might be
made out of railways on all the principal
streets, and be was not the man to jcopardi.e
the welfare of bis colleagues, but as be ex
pected to be re-elected, and had a regard for
the future as well as the present, be moved to
amend the bill by striking out the provisions
relating to lanes, courts, and alleys, so that it
might be made to apply only to the streets, and
he contended that if the whole ground was
covered at once there would be no chance left
for profitable passenger railway legislation at
future sessions.
A member here rose to a question of order,
He contended that no parliamentary rule was
better established than that each Legislature
shonld take care of itself, without regard to the
interests of its successors, and tho Speaker
instantly decided the point of order to be well
taken. So the obnoxious amendment was
not considered, and, indeed, no member present
seemed disposed to second It.
Mr. Playfair rose to ask an explanation. He
was fully convinced that aftr a thing had
been fairly set up it was contrary to all rules 0
propriety and legislative precedent to disap
point tbe just expectations of industrious and
enterprising members. The only question which
deserved even a moment's consideration was
whether all the members from the city had been
"seen" In reference to this measure, and whether
none of them had been "left out in tho cold."
While bis mind was fully satisfied on all other
points, be would be content with nothing less
than explicit information on this mouicntoua
subject. Political parties bad sought safety aud
strength in the maxim that ''to the victors
belong the spoils," and H was evident to every
observing member who wished to improve to
the utmost the opportunities offered by the
session, that legislators musf, for their own
safety aud profit, insist upon an equi
table division of tho spoils of legisla
tion. Ou that great principle he took
his stand, and demanded to know the
sentiments of every member of the Rectangular
delegation. If they all favored the bill he would
vole tor it, but if there was a dissenting voice,
or a single complaint of gouging he would
oppose tho bill, and postpone action until the
happy period had arrived when, if he might be
allowed to use a more forcible thau elegant
agricultural expression, "all the pigs were fed
out of the same trough 1" (Great applause.)
Every eye was now turned to the Rectangular
delegation, and the wbolo house awaited with
breathless anxiety an authoritative answer to
tho mighty question on which tbe f ito of the
law hinged. As soon as assurances were given
by the Keclangulars that everything had beeu
done on the square, the bill passed, as a matter
of course, and before jou could say Jack Ro
binson tbe Speaker had givcu a hcakhy im
pulse to bisiues9 by asking, "Who's the next
custom r V'
Tins Pevektu Son. We have often ber.rd the
oi l superstition that the seventh son of a family
was gifted with extraordinary wisdom, and that
the seventh son of a sevenib sou was endowed
with second sight and various other marvellous
qualities. Tbe reason for these marks of favor
was long hidden, but it has at last been un
veiled. This is a world ot compensations, aud
unusual privileges or great possessions go haud-
inhaLd with extraordinary afflictions or un
usual tribulations. The report of Special Com
missioner Wells demonstrates that the average
expenses of every household are doubled after
the birth of the seventh child, and it is only
fair that the insatiable little cormorants who
consume as much as their parents and six
brothers or sisters combined, should possess
euperior intelligence and be gifted with bi
brains ai well as big bellies.
