CURIOUS MEDLEY
By the lake where drooped the willow,
Row, vassals, row!
I want to be an angel,
And jump Jim Crow.
An old crow sat on a hickory limb,
None named hint but to praise;
Let me kiss him fir his mother,
Fur he smells of Schweitzer hose.
The minstrel to the war has gone,
With the banjo on hie knee;
Ho woke to hear the sentries shriek,
There's a light in the window for thee
A frog he would a wooing go,
His hair was curled to kill;
Ho used to wear an old gray coat,
And the sword of Bunker Hill.
Oft in the stilly night,
Make way for liberty! lie cried,
I won't go home till morning,
With Peggy by my side.
I am dying, Egypt, dying, -
Susannah don't you cry;
Know how sublime a thing it is
To brush away the blue•tailed fly
The boy stood on the burning deck,
With his baggage checked for Troy,
Ono of the few immortal names,
Ills name was Pat Itiull y. - .
Mary had a little lamb,
Ile could a title unfold,
Ho had no teeth fur to eat a corn cake,
And his oneetacles wore gold.
Lay on, lay on, Macduff,
Man wants but little hero below,
And I'm to be Queen of the May,
Su kiss Inc quick and let the go!
DEVELOPAIENTS !
The Pennsylvania Legislature.
PHILADELPHIA, May 27, 1867
Ens. PHILADA. INQUIRER :—Sinco the
adjournment of the session of the Penn
sylvania Legislature of 1867, the pub.
lie press has denounced it as venal and
corrupt.
To the astonishinent of the people,
it appears that laws were privately
enacted, of which no notice was taken
in the newspapers of the day at the
time of their passage. To the equal
astonishment of some members of the
Legislature, laws were made, of which
they know absolutely nothing until
long after the adjournment.
These things seem to require an ex
planation. As the agent of a news•
paper at Harrisburg during the session,
allow me to make that explanation in
distinct and explicit terms. It has
never been so opportune as at the pres
ent time, when honorable men through
out the State are endeavoring to find a
remedy for legislative corruption.
The sessson of 1867 opened without
the discussion of any measure of par
ticular• importance, except the Free
Railroad law. No rival corporations
were in the field to urge "special" leg
islation. Every appearance indicated
a dull winter.
If it be true that many members bad
spent large sums in securing their nom
ination and election, their prospects at
that time of obtaining a return must
have looked gloomy. Yet one recourse
appeared to bo left. If the people
would not seek the law makers, the
law makers could seek the people.
Forthwith ingenious men devised a
plausible system of making business.
They appointed committees' with var
ied powers. In jocular legislative cir
cles they were called "smelling com
mittees." The ostensible object of their
appointment was always "to ascertain
if such or such evil existed, with pow
er to send for persons and papers, and
to report, &c." Armed with this au
thority, they went out into the State
from Erie to the Delaware. They in
vestigated the greatest variety of sub
jects, from the private books of a well
know❑ capitalist to the price of oil on
Sugar Creek. To prominent railroad
managers they came' like hawks upon
a brood of chickens.. Each committee
resolved itself into ono great mark of
interrogation, and placed its formida
ble "why, how, when and where" be
ford the victim, who tremblingly obey
ed its demands as the great seal of the
Commonwealth, with "Virtue, Liberty
and Independence" blazoned upon it,
was thrust before his eyes. These
peregrinating, investigating, fragmen
tary, legislative excursionists had all
of their expenses paid by the State.
What good thing 'did they do?
If they were really appointed for any
legitimate purpose, they never once achi
eved it. if they found any cvii it still
exists, for in no single - case did they ever
remedy it. If they were designed to
secure good legislation on any subject,
they never succeeded in the effort. They
were of no possible use to the people,
whatever benefit, may have accrued to
the committees,
This was one form of legislation that
was more than equivocal. There was
another equally bad, if not worse.
Many members became speculators.
Although originally sent by the peo
ple, to enact equal laws for all, they
no sooner took their seals than they
devised special hills, with their own
friends, relatives and acquaintances
named-therein as incorporators. These
bills were for many purposes, from the
establishments of gold and silver min
ing companies, without enough land to
bury a gold dollar, to the construction
of immense railroads, without, enough
capital to buy one rail. The legisla
tors of a great Commonwealth thus
became law jobbers, with a stock on
hand of charters to accommodate the
market. It can readily be perceived
that an act in whleti — perhaps a dozen
MeMbers were interested, was almost
certain to bO successfully passed. Not
unfecquently these speculative laws
(whether intrinsically or not) interfer
ed with the vested right© of other ear-

tics, and became injurious to enterpri
ses in which honorable men had ex
pended years of toil and large amounts
of monev.
These two illustrations of the com
mittee system and the charter system
arc intended to give a correct idea of
the general morality of the session of
1867, and these illustrations lead to a
point about which the people know lit.
tle or nothing, viz:— Tlfo manner in
_which laws were made.
In mercantile business, a man who
signs a promisory note which binds his
property, without first reading it, is
adjudged to be an idiot. In ordinary
social life, a man 171113 indorses an
agreement without linowing its con
tents, is esteemed a brave or a mad
man. Yet the legislators of 18G7 actu
ally passed laws at the rate of thirty to
the hour, without reading them except by
their titles, To appreciate the enormi
ty of this transaction it must be re
membered that these laws were to gov
ern the. widow and the orphan,
the
beggar and the capitalist, men of all
religious creeds, business, interests and
connections. A solemn duty, that of
protecting the citizen in every right
that humanity holds dear, thus degen
erated into a farce. Day after day,
whole pages of printed titles were
enacted into laws, without the con
tents of the bills being read!
But this farce rendered even more
'iculous. To give a color of deliber
attn.. the transaction, it was requir•
ed in some cases that the person rep•
resenting the Legislative District to
which the bill (by its title) was suppo
sed to refer should say, "All right!"
Whereupon it passed. An immense
majority thus delegated to some one
man the exercise of all their own duty,
ability and judgment. Happy era of
Arcadian simplicity, when such confi
dence exists among men in high posi
tion, and when the utterance of just
two words, by just ono man, will give
to a half dozen pages of unknown man
uscript the majesty of a law, represent
ing the will and controlling the actions
of millions ofpeoplo. Sarcastic, indeed,
was the remark of a member of the
House, that it would save time to pass
the bills by their numbers, without the
trouble of reading the titles.
This system produced its unavoida
ble results. Members, officers and re
porters, become entangled in the maze.
Nobody knew exactly what bills had
passed, or what ones had fallen. The
duty of the speakers and officers was
merely executive, and they had neith
er the power - or ability to resist the
wishes of a majority which seemed de
termined to transform a deliberate
body into a machine for turning out
laws with lightning rapidity. To trace
particular bills, and ascertain their ex
act condition was the labor• of hours.
They were numbered by thousands,
and it was not uncommon for• more
than one hundred new ones in rough
manuscript, to be introduced at a sin•
gle night session. At odd times, on
the special request of some member,
one or more of these would be consid
ered and hurriedly passed, no particu
lar interest Meg manifested by any
one in the provisions of the new
Amendments were piled upon amend
ments, and in ono case, eight now sec
tions were offered to a bill as a single
amendment.
Not unfrequently after some appar
ently trifling bill had been printed for
weeks, it would be modified two or
three minutes before its passage by the
substitution of an entirely new bill,
with new provisions. It was quite
common for a measure which had pass
ed one House in a harmless shape, to
have some objectionable amendment
quietly attached to it in the other
branch. The English language was
tortured to supply apparently harmless
phrases which could afterwards be
construed so as to confer immense pow
ers. In ono case a local corporation,
nominally to operate in a little town
ship, came very near being transform.
ed into a mammoth organization, by
adding the words, "and elsewhere." In
another case, under cover of a city
railroad in a Western village, was con
cealed a project to build a steam rail
road anywhere in the State. The mem
bers of the Legislature of 1567 unques.
tionably knew that such practices were
common at the very tune they allowed
bills to be passed by their title, under
the '"all right" system ; yet they took
no warning.
This is the way that laws were made
at Ilarrisburg, and this is the reason
why many bills escaped the attention,
not only of interested parties, but of
the newspaper press at the time of their
passage. Does any man wonder at it?
This communication leaves much
unsaid. Personalities are not needed
to prove the effects of a bad system;
but ii any member feels aggrieved, lot
him ask himself whether the statements
herein made aro not literally true.
Unless there is a reform, he and his pet
projects may next year full victims to
the evil that he now indorses. Tho
people have a right to the better ad
ministration of legislative power. To
obtain this, it does not necessarily fol•
low that they need east away men of
any particular party or class, but only
select from the candidaLs those who
have shown themselves worthy of the
trust. A few such men were at Har
risburg lust winter, but they were not
in the majority. :Such men should be
cherished as tender flowers, whose
purity has enabled them to bloom in a
garden whore good things generally

Remarkable Wedding.
The Dayton Journal is responsible
for the following story :
Tuesday morning a couple appear
ed in the Probate Court and demanded
a marriage license. When the mo•
ment arrived for paying the fee, the
man was fur . backing out, but the wo.
man:said ho shouldn't do that, "not by
any means," and sho paid the license,
The couple soon afterward appeared
at Justice Tnrner's office, and the wo
man made known her "intentions."
The unusual appearance of the "hap
py couple" attracted unusual attention
and a largo crowd was soon gathered
there to see the solemn ceremonies.
When the couple wore asked to
stand up and thee the music, the
groom again tried to back water; and
the bride seeing that there was no
other way for it, remarked that he'd
got to stand it, and there was no use
talking about it. She caught hold of
the doubting Thomas and squared him
up before the justice, with tho order
for him to "sail In Ir Just then the
query arose as to where the fee for the
tying of the hymeneal knot was to
come from. The man said he couldn't
stand the expense. The asserted that
she had paid for the license, and the
loan should pay for the marrying. lie
protested that ho wouldn't, and that
he'd go to Cincinnati to work. The
woman caught him as he was slipping,
away from the . matrimonial noose,
threw him down on the floor, and, tak
ing some money front his pockets, she
deliberately paid tho justice his fee,
and then holding on to her"lt.iller," tho
knot was tied in the due form. All
the whilo the bride was munching
peanuts, and when tho ceremony was
concluded the floor was littered with
the sholls. The bride saluted her hus
ba»d with "Toni, you're a liar !" Con
gratulations to the happy couple were
fairly showered down, and were char
acterized more for their robusticity
than for their delicacy ; and the bride
and groom left "the presence" in a con
dition of jollity which foretold a bole
torons tioneyinoon. When last seen
the amiable hp . offse shoved . lieC . lord in
to the glitter at, the corner of Jeffer

PARTY PREJUDICE.-A good story is
told of a countryman from Now York
visiting Washington at the time when
Mr. Van Buren was Vico President.
Ile was a red-hot Democrat. and of
course held Mr. Van Buren in the high
est reverence. Ile sat in the circular
gallery of the Senate, gazing at the
Vice President with a mingled feeling
of awe arid State pride, when suddenly
a tall and manly form appeared at the
side of the hall, and beckoned to Mr.
Van Baron. There was little business
doing; and the Vice President, calling
a senator to the chair, joined the per
son mentioned, when both seated them
selves on the sofa, snuffing from the
same box; the hand of the Vico Presi
dent was laid playfully upon the other,
and ever and anon a hearty laugh
would escape thein,showing that, what
ever might be the topic, it was agreea
ble to both.
"Is that Mr. Calhoun with the Vice
President?" said his country friend to
a person near him.
"No, sir."
"Is it Mr. Benton ?"
"No, sir."
"Is it General Wall ?"
"No, sir."
"May I ask who it is ?"
"Why, that is Mr. Clay."
"Mr. Clay !" almost tibriekod tbo
man ; "and does Mr. Van Boron speak
to him ? Rot mo if ever I vote for him
again I"
And the fellowstalked from the hall,
firmly believing that the country was
lost.
C=U On a trial for an assault, at the
USSiMCS, some years since, a medical
witness,in giving his c.videnco,informed
the court that, on examining the pros
ecutor, ho found him suffering from a
severe contusion of the integuments
under the left orbit, with great extra
vasion of blood eechymoais in the sur
rounding cerlular tissue, which was in
a tumefied state. There was also con

Out in the street with naked feet,
I saw the drunkard's little daughter;
Her tattered Edniwl was thin and small ;
She little knew for no one taught her.
Her skin was fair, her auburn hair
Was blown about her pretty forehead.
Her sad, white face wore sorrow's trace,
And want and woo that were not borrowed
Heart-broken child, she seldom smiled;:
Hope promised her no' bright to-morrow;
Or if its . light flashed on her night,
Then up come-darker cloude of sorrow.
She softly said "We have no bread,
No wood to keep the fire a burning,!'
The child MlSill ; the winds so chill
Her thin, cold blood to ice wee turning
But men well fed and warmly clad,
And ladies robod in richest fashion,
Passed on the side where no one cried
To them for pity or compassion.
That long night fled, and then the light
Of rosy day in beauty shining, -
Set dome and spire'and roof on fire,
And shone on one beyond repining.
Asleep—alone—as cold as stone,
Where no dear parent ever sought her;
In winding-sheet of snow and sleet,
Was found the drunkard's lifeless daughter.
From Ohio comes a capital story,
which all who love a good joke will
relish, whatever they may think of
teetotalism or the tricks of scurvy po-
litical mountebanks to make capital
out of a pretended zeal for temper
ance. A teetotal lecturer led off • ae
follows :
All of those, who in youth, acquire
a habit of drinking whiskey, at forty
years of age will bo total abstainers,
or drunkards. No one can use whisky
with moderation. It there is a per.
son in the audience beforo me whose
own experience disproves this, let him
now make it known. I will account
for it, or acknowledge that I am mill , .
taken.
A. tall,, large man arose, and folding
his arms in a dignified manner acrofts,
his breast, said distinctly:
"I offer myself as one whose own ox-.
penance contradicts your statement?"
"Are you a moderate drinker P ask
ed the Judge.
"I am."
"How long bavo you drank in mod.
eration ?"
"Forty years."
"And were never intoxicated ?"
"Never."
"Well," remarked the JUdge, sean,
ning his subject closely from'head to.
foot, "yours is a singular case, yet I
think it is easilyiaccounted for. lam
reminded by it of a little story. A
negro man, -with a loaf of bread and's,
flask of whiskey, sat down •to dine by
the bank of a clear stream. In break
ing the bread some of the crumbs fell
into tho water. Those were eagerly
seized and eaten by the fish. That
circumstance suggested to the darkoy
the idea of dipping the bread in the
whiskey and feeding it to them. He
tried it. It worked well.. Some of
the fish ate of it, became drank, and
floated helplessly on the water. - In
this way he easily caught a number,
But in the stream was a large fish„
very unlike the rest. It partook free-,
ly of the bread and whiskey, but with-.
outivany perceptible effect. It was shy
of every effort of the darkey to take it.
Ho resolved to have it at all hazards
that he might, learn its name and na
ture. He procured a not, and after.
• much effort, caught it,•oarried it to ft,
negro neighbor, and asked his opinion
of the matter. The other surveyed
the wonder a moment, and then said:
"Sambo, I understand die case. Dat
fish is a mullet-head. It ain't got any
brains."
"In other words," said the Judge,
"alcohol affects only the brain, and, of
course, those having none may drink
with impunity."
The storm of laughter that followed
drove the forty years moderato drinker:
suddenly from the house.
A YEAR's Woitx. ofi DRAM-SELLING , ,
—Carefully compiled statistics show
that sixty thousand lives are annually

Twenty thousand children are year

Throe hundred murderers are anoth-.

Four hundred suicides follow these
fearful catalogues of misery.
Two hundred thousand orphans are

Itgl..The "Fat Contributor" writes
from Jackson to the Cincinnati . Times
of a joke played on some delegates to
the Good Templars' Convention held
there recently. They got into an (rt•
nibus at the depot, and told the driver
to drive them to a temperance house.
"All right," said he, and away he
drove. He gave them a pretty long
ride, and hauled up finally in front of
an immense stone structure sarround 7
ed by a high wall.
."What hotel is
this ?" inquired a delegate, eyeing the
premises in a hcwilderod manner.—
"Michigan State Prison," said the dri,
ver • "the only temperance house in
Jackson." 'rimy concluded not to put
up there; not if they could help it.
