Tilt: MAN THAT THE COUNTKY JSUKUS. a Plea furltetter Kepreseotatlouoftne Peo ple in Oar National Law Making Body A Just Criticism. Harper's Weekly. Congress has adjourned, and the !ou session is severely scanned aud criticised. There is but one way of perceiving imme diately tho drift of public opinion, and that is to read the newspapers. Congress, indeed, is tho official rei...'seutativo of the people, but tho popular protest often shows how grievously ho public t-cnti-ment andpurpose aro misrepresented by Cotmress. This was st:t.:iurly illustrated in the case of tho Rivet- and Harbor bill. There is uo doubt that the bill was gen erally condemned, and for Found reasons, aud that the president, not Congress, was tho truo representative of the country upon that question.- Tuoro is equally no doubt that the bill was a great combination of jobs skillfully inter woven with necessary works, and that it received cbe votes of many honest mem bers at last merely because of their con viction that no better bill was possible As Mr. Crapo, of Massachusetts, expressed it, ho voted for the bill bocauso of tho 93 per cent, of good in it. ana tiespito tuo o per cent, of bad. His cstiniato of the percentage of good is doubtless extremely liberal. The River and Harbor bill is a log-rolling measure. Iu order to secure improvements that aro undeniably neces sary, members vote for swindles, tho rea soning being that if thoy do not vote to scoop out a trout stream iu somebody's 'dcestriok," ho will not voto to deepen somo important harbor. This situation is both ludicrous and humiliating, aud it is one iu which sensible men ouuht not to acquiesce. It may not be possible, alto gether to cscapo bargains iu legislation, but it is uot therefore necessary to sutler legislation to bo degraded iuto mero trad ing. There must bo constant activity to pi event tuts tendency oy matting congress more truly representative of the people. At present, in a rough way, Congress docs represent tho prevailing and domi nant party feeling, but that is all. A Re publican district sends a Republican ro picscntativc, aud a Democratic district scuds a Democrat, aud tho aggregate indi cates tho general tendency of political sentiment aud sympathy at tho time of election. But beyond that not much is shown. Nor would this bo a matter of regret if tho party policy upon great questions wcro well understood, aud if the representatives were tho truo choice of tho confctituency. But this is uot neces sarily tho case. Upon many great ques tions tho parties have taken no distinctive position, while elections aro not free long as patronago largely controls them. Par ties voto for candidates, butthocandidates aro by no means always freely selected. Now it is impossiblo for the selection to bo free aud it is impossiblo for a member of Congress to discharge his constitutional d uty of legislating iutelligcntly so long as his time i1; occupied as :i broker ol place lor his constituents. Thcro is prelimi nary bargain or understanding thai, this shall bo done which controls tho nomina tion, aud tho completion of the bargain interferes both with intelligent and with honest legislation. Many of tho votes for tho River aud Harbor bill were east simply to secure a rcnomiuatiou by appa rent zeal for tho welfare of a district, and such votes, supplemented by patronage, pioduco tho misrepresentations which niuet bo steadily withstood. This is the practical actiou which tho reform move ment pioposes lo tako this year. The position of candidates for Congress will bo definitely ascertained aud mado known to tho voters, aud every voter will act ao eordingly. There can bo no inoio essential object thau to make Congress a really represen tative body, ami this can bo achieved by nothiug more surely than by the election of those who aro resolved to destroy tho system which puts up nominations at auc tion, aud substitutes riugs or placo-holdi ug politicians for tho people. As Mr. Wheel er well stated at tho lato conference at Newport, tho majority iu many congres sional districts is very small, and a com paratively small number of votes will de feat an objcctiouablo candidate. If an organization of tho friends of reform should bo effected in such districts', and the candidates should bo interrogated and their answers generally circulated in tho district, with tho comments of tho organ ization, tho result would bo the presence in Congress of a body of representatives who aro in earnest for reform. In that way only can it bo put into law. Until then tho executivo department will say that there is no constitutional evidence of a real and general desire for reform. This is substantially tho ground that was taken by tho president in his message. Ho said and ho undoubt edly meant fully what ho said that if Congress should indicate a method of ro form, he would enforce it. Public opinion must be manifested iu this way, aud it is quite strong enough iu many districts for such a manifestation, if a little caro be taken to provide tho necessary conditions. Platitudes, generalities, aud evasions in reply will not avail caudidates this year, but antecedents aud general character will bo of great service. Party nomina tion alone will bo no indication of a can didate's real position, because- neither party, as such, has demonstrated its prac tical fidelity to reform Everything is auspicious for a practical endeavor to make Congress more truly representative of tho country, and nothing proves the necessity of such au endeavor more than tho fact that the irreiutauio veto ui mu president, supported by tho evident opinion aud wish of tho country, was tilla ble to prevent tho passage of the River and Harbor bill. WESTERN KOMANCE. Why George W. Slmpsou Loved Koine Mc Closkcy More and Aloro all tno Time. Chicago Tribune. " My own darling." George W. Simpsou says these words softly to himself as ho lies iu tho hammock under tho linden trees, tho soft breath of a Juno zephyr kissing tho pearl-covered pants that fit him so suddenly aud then rioting among tho scarlet bank of roses that aro climbing in fanciful ways around tho pillars that guard tho eutranco to Dis tress Warrant castlo. Sho of whom ho sperks them is a beautiful girl with a dusky, piquant faco a faco that is arch, sparkling and bright, as only brunette faces can be, and over tho laughing face is a fluffy mass of dark, waving hair, whilo a pair of pansy-dark eyes, with golden lights in their soft depths, and sweotly curving lips, tinted with the velvety crimson of the rose, complcto a .picture that would make your head swim. Roiuo McCloskey is iudeed beautiful, and when she comes singing aloug the graveled path with the golden light of a summer aay iaiuuj; ujmiu u uuwiwu head, the very birds that aro caroling among tho branches of tho lindens seem to pause and look at her. Sho sings in a low, sweet voice that is tremulous with dinner a little Breton lovo-song that sho had heard in Milwaukee : Mary Ann McLaughlin, don't you cry, ipc tho tcar-dropa from your eye ; You'll be happy by-and-by Mary Ann McLaughlin, don't you cry. The pure, Madonna-liko faco of the young man lifts itself from tho dopths of the hammock and he looks at the girl with a weary, wistful, two-hot-days-and-no- white-vest-ia tho-houso expression that would move a plumber. She sees him and runs eagerly to the hammock, rutting her dimnle arm arouud his neck she kisse tho rosebud mouth and thou scats hersolf by his side. " Do you lovo mo as much to day as you did last Thursday," she asks, whilo her brown eyes sparkle with merriment. But back of the laughing look thcro is a ten der, loving, I-must-not-let-him get-away expression that tells how she worships this man. ,:i'es, sweetheart," replied George, "I love you more every day of my life, for you do not sing as much as you used to." Pansy Perklu and Etlielbert Pottlnglll. " Welcome homo. Pansy." Dapplovale was at its prettiest this sweet Juno day as it nestled cosily among tho hills that towered above it on every side. Down in the shady glen whore the village church stood, almost hidden by the cypress trees whoso great boughs of green were swept caressingly against tho sides of the modest structure, Pausy Perkins was standing, and as Etholbort Pottingill spoke the words with which this chapter opens her faco lighted up with a radiant 2x4 smilo that was beautiful in its sad expanse of territory. " Come to mo, Pansy," ho said. It was Ethelbcrt's voice, tender, gentle, that spoke, yet with something in its tones that mado tho girl pauso in her ex cited, feverish walk up and down, and she pressed her hands to her throbbing tem ples, looking at him with largo, bright. pathetic eyes. But ho stretched out his hand aud she camo to him. Ho passed his arm arouud her waist aud held her to his breast a moment in silonce. Presently Pansy spoke : " It is very hot, is it uot, darling?" she said. "Yes." replied Etholbort ; "aud it is getting lato," tho girl looked up at him with those haudsomo dark eyes that had witched so many men. " Do you lovo mo '."' sbo said. 'Passionately, my angel," was the tremulous reply. "Aud wiil you buy mo somo ico cream ?" Etholhert felt his heart throbbiug agaiust his suspender, aud for au iustant he could uot reply. But tho momentary agitation was soou over, and ho spoko out in creamy, mellow tones, "I will do it with pleasure." Tho peachy check of the girl was laid close to his now, aud tho velvety lips kissed him tenderly back of tho left car. Aud then, turning her head slightly, Pausy whispered to herself : "I havo not lost my grip." Tho fussing ol llio Treasurer. ' Good-by, papa " Tho plump, white arms of Erica Brown wcro thrown about her father's neck, and the pretty faco with its riant mouth, and cunning dimples were pressed closely to tho bronzed check of tho farmer as ho stood in tho kitchen doorway, a moment before going out to his daily toil. " I am going to plough tho south mea dow this inoiuiug my darling," ho said to the girl, "and when noon comes you must have my accounts of tho treasurer of tho church all arranged, becauso tho build ing uiiinmiUcc will bo hero after dinner, aud I am to turn over tho money iu my hanilb, so that tho election of tho new church iu the little dell just beyoud where we buried that mouse colored heifer two ycais ago la&t spring can be commenced at once" and, kissing his daughter again, Farmer Brown took a bite of hard tobacco aud went away iuto tho glad sunlight. The petals of tho Juno roses had fallen like a pink carpet along tho edge or tho woods, contrasting prettily with tho vivid gteen ol the glass aud leaves. Abovo tho hum of insects ami tho twittering of the birds roMJtho sturdy voice of Farmor Brown sweariug at tho mules. " Get up, daru it !" he said. But tho mulo only waved its ear iu a sensuous, languid fash ion, aud looked wistfully iuto tho next meadow where tho starry-eyed kino wcro giazing, and tho old sorrel mare that had a splint on her near front leg wrs quaffing tho iucciiso of tho new born day. Pick ing up a short stick, the farmer advanced autl struck the faithful mulo a cruel blow just abaft his midship ribs. Stretching out his hind legs in a dreamy wistful way, tho mulo felt them touch something, and in a moment Farmer Brown was sailing in tliss far blue overhead. The little church iu the mossy dell is not completed yet, and tho building com mittee is anxiously waiting for tho treas urer to eome dowu. UUKLS ANO PLAITS. Jllsliop Lalieclio and the Apostle St. Paul A few days ago press dispatches an nounced that Bishop Laficche, of Three Rivers, Montreal, had forbidden the ladies of his congregation to wear curls under the penalty of committing sin. Tho an nouncement furnished the basis for a vast amount of witty jurualistie" comment, and proved a veritable godsend to tho hu morous scribes of tho press who had ex hausted all tho ordinary stock of summer fun. All theso scintillations appear to havo beon somewhat premature, however, as it now appears that Bishop Lafiecho has not entered the list against curls ar all, and has issued no such prohibition as that mentioned. The Catholic Mirror, of Bal timore, has taken tho pains to writo to the bishop ou the subject, and has received a reply denying tuo statement mauo in tno dispatches. The bishop says ho simply published the decrees of tho Sixth Provin cial council of Quebec, among them tho seventeenth, which treats of tho education of young girls, and cites the admonition of tho apostlo that women should array themselves in accent apparci, auorning themselves with modesty and sobriety ; not with plaited hair, or gold or pearls, or costly attire, but as becomoth women nrofcssimr codliness, with good works." It will thus be seen that there is no refer ence to carls even in that decree cited and although St. Paul docs make a suggestion with rcgird to plans, tho associated press would seem to bo some 2,000 years behind tbo times iu telegraphing this as a piccoof news, and rather confused iu its theologi cal knowledge in ascribing the authorship to Bishon Laliechc. Annie Surratt. Cincinnati Commercial. Annie Surratt, tho poor girl who suffer ed so terribly us to mako her old while yet so young iu years, lives near her brother John. Sho is tho wifo of Prof. Tonry, who is now tho leading chemist of Baltimore. After her mother had been hanged, aud her own mental faculties were shattered by tho agonies sho had uu dergonc, the innocent girl was ostracised and persecuted to an extent that is a dis grace to our so-called Christian civiliza tion. Years after, when Mr. Tonry then a government clerk dared to marry her, ho was dismissed from office for the offense. For a time they were very poor, but being turned out of the government grind proved to bo the making of him after, ail. Thoy are now prosperous enough in a worldly point of view, but the onco blitho and beautiful Anuio i a wroik, both mentally and physically, with hair as white as the driven snow, though but littlo more than 30 years of ago. She never recovered from tho shook of that awful day, tho last of her mother's lift, and is subject to fits of extreme nervous ness, bordering upon delirium. PeraoaalvenM of tho HiuKet. Toledo Blade. Gen. Steedman tells a good story which is applicable to the manner in which the aristocratic GOth Rifles recently skipped out in front of Ramleh and gave every thing up to tho Egyptians. Whilo near Nashvillo thojgeneralhadancgro regiment on tho picket lino, aud a bright yonng mulatto sergeant in command of a post got the drop on a rebel post and captured the whole outfit. Tho rebels wore a crowd of high-stepping young Virginians and some of them were badly wrought up by the idea of having to surrender to a " lot of niggers." Gen. Steedman took their commander, a fine young fellow, into his tent, extended some courtesies to him and in the course of the conversation said : " It was a little tough, lieutenant, to bo taken in by colored soldiers, but war has strange experiences." " Well, goueral," said tho other, setting down his glass, " I've been in the army now nearly four years, and if I've learned anything its a profound respeot for the musket. Whon tbo muzzle is shoved into my faco I don't usually ask any questions as to who's gut hold of tho breech." Gen. Sherman tells nearly as good a story in bis book. Ho was standiug on the sidewalk iu St. Louis when Gou. Lyon went out with his men to attack tho se cessionists at Camp Jackson. A young lady of Gen. Shorman's acquaintance daughter of ouo of tho most aristocratic families in tho city was standing ou a stoop nearby, wringing her hands aud crjiog. She said hor brothers, cousins and. a number of acquaintances wero in Camp Jackson, aud sho was certain they would all bo killed, for they wero proud, high spirited men, belonging to tho best famil ies in tho city, and thoy would dio before they would yield. Gen. Sherman tried to consolo her by saying that ho had noticed that sons of first-class families were usual ly not any moro willing to dio than other people. He continued his walk and iu a little whilo met Gen. Lyon returning with tho entire forco at Camp Jacksou, which had surrendered without firing a guu. Ho hastened back to comfort the young lady with nows of hor kinsmen's safety, but after sho heard it sbo sja turned tho door iu his face. Wby Wilde Went Into the Wlldewood. When Oscar Wildo went up to see Bcccher at Pcckskill last week, it is said ho encountered a set back which was rather rude, but it had its amusing side. After a hearty dinner ho and Mr. Beecher took a stroll iu tho woods, and suddenly thoy camo upon a bevy of Brooklyn girls who were about to scat themselves to a luncheon spread on a tablecloth ou tho ground. Thoy wero plump aud pleasing beauties, dressed iu white aud piuk and daisies, with ombroided hoso peeping out from low French slippers, and Oscar rivet ed his gaze upou them, cront'" his: legs, leaned upon a cano and smiled a Rhode Island clam-bako smile. Tho girls twit tered and tittered, aud looked anuudas though half horrified, but by a btiddeu in spiration they all dropitcd upon tho j;iass iuhalf rccliniug altitudes, and when ouo rattled a kmfo on a plato as a signal all of them began to chant : Twenty love sick maiden-) we. Love-sick all against our will : Twenty years heliee wo shall bo Twenty love-sick maidens still. Oscar mado a bolt for tho wildwood and was soon out of sight behind somo UDderbrush, while Parson Beecher .stood still and roared with laughter, looking like tho monk in tho picture. Maine's Motto.

Its cause is most frequently! ascribed to local surroundings, and, there in very little question, bat this opiaion is substantiated by facts. Malaria does not necessarily mean chills and fever while these trouble usually ac company it. It often affects the suf ferer with general lassitude, accom panied by loss of appetite, sleepless ness, a tired feeling and a high fever the person afflicted growing weaker and weaker, loses flesh day after day, until he becomes a moro skeleton, a shadow of his former self. Malaria ouco having laid its hold upon the human frame, tho door or tho syxtea is throws open to nervous diseases. The body weak and enfeebled absorbs no nourish ment, but subsisting upon ifuvlf, tbo digestive organs no longer per form their lunclons; tfio liver.be comes torpid, and other orgtinj failing to dO thalr routine' work, speedily becomo disordered ami dissolution ana death aro apt to ensue.
