If the brains of tne Democratic par

With all the democratic blowing
of what they have dotie since the

that nothing of any consequence Las
b.-en accompiir-hed iu the way f

Tbe only measures that have phsstd

Sitting in the gallery of the lluu.-e
oa aJj'iurnuient day was an autu.-iag
B.-eue abd I wish aome of my coun
try rcadt-rs could have been vuih me
that I might Lave explained the dif
ferent characters on the flojr. What a
lot o! huaiuagry there is in members
of Congress uuyhow. To see mem
bers manipulating their bills and
resolutions tor lo reason iu the world
out t a ctluJe iLo kuuest voters at
Lome and make tbeiu believe thut
tney are doing something great ia
Congress. Tuke u biembor, he in
troduces oao d:iy some piece of buni
bugry, which ho has not the leaf t idea
ot ever becoming a law. Next day
when tLe 'Urcrd" comes out you
cin observe him busy as a bailor,
addresning a copy to each of Lis
"blow hards" ia bis district that they
may make people believe be is the
best member tLey ever bad Drop in
to the galliry a week later and you
see the greatest s;i:csman with Lis
Lead thrown b-ck and Lis speciacles
on, luoking thorough the country pa
pers of Lis district 'cbutklmg ia bis
sleeves" bow Lis scheme took at
home. He is happy for the time.
His happiness is only temporary
however he sees it and feels it. Then
he goes tun oik ana gets up eorne
taiug else that w ill take and make
votes us they call it, and thus, week
ia and week out the humbug machiue
is kept runniug during the whole ses
sion. Of course there are exceptions to
this rule, but it is a fact which no
fair minded man deny, that a dozen
or so do all the work and the balance
fiil into line like a lot of sheep and
f jllow their leader.
A great many of our bright and
iieal legislators feel ia their very bo
soms that they were born natural
s atesmen, and vou can see them sit
ting around with their eyebrows
d -wn, meditating, and 'drawing on
t ieir imagination lo devise some
m-ans lo make political capital. They
will go home and sit around tbe
houses and iheir wives will not know
what in tbe mischief can be tbe mat
t;r. He goes to bed, sleeps on the
idea that of doing something big
aad wonderful. He dreams till the
wee bours of morning. Ail at once
he jumps out bed gets his pencil, dots
11 s scneme down, and the next day
f emulates it into a bill, or resolu-
i.on or inquiry or investigation as
the case may be. lie will be so im
pressed in a snort time by bis gnat
achievement that he w ill adopted it
a3 a bobby.
These hobby men soon become
known. They are oa the Dor pret
ty mucn all tbe time, and at every
opportunity try to catch the eve o!
the speaker. In the Senate for ia
b ance, is Senator Davis, of West
Virginia who is continually trying to
make himself and the couutry be
1 eve that millions of dollars have
been stolen out of the TreaFurv and
is trying to prove it by the Treasury
books. Ihe senators laugh at Li in
because it could cot be, but iudulge
b:m in allowing Lim to investigate
as much as he Dleases, and the de
partment offers him every facility to
pry into tbe secrets of the Govern
wnt to satisfy his abnormal imagin
ation.
Iu the House side these hobbies
are more numerous aud through a
system ot what is known as loeroll-
ing they get more encouragement
t'nnthey are allowed bv the deco-
rmi of the Senate.
Their whole soul is for inakioe
party capital. Take Kellr on "Fee
ntnee," for instance, jibat suits his
c mstituents; Ilandall oa "Reform,"
tsat's a good card amongst tbe Phil
adelphia quakers; Cox on "why we
liugh at Tilden," that cuits tbe Irish
voter of New York City ; Conger
on the "Kebels," that makes him
e did id Micuigan ; Bragg on "War
c'nims," that kind of taffy satisfies
the doughfaces of Wisconsin; Black
burn on the ''Wiping out of war leg
islation and the constitutional
amendments," will call him some
dy to "cone up higher" in old Ken
t uky ; Tom Young on "Mormons,"
is a good card in Cincinnati, but
charity begins at borne and Tom
ought to start in to regulate his fel
law members; Springer on "starv
ing the deputy marshals," suits his
b'.ood tabes; Coffroth on "Pension
ing the soldiers" is his little boom to
carry tbe Kth district ; Wright on
"depression of labor," la a good card
amoognst the strikers ; Stevens on
the "metric system of weiehta and
measures," whereby pounds, ounces,
and penny weights would be thrown

Congress is d)i'Jg one good thing
among the many bad and that is
the leaders are trying to get a new
set of rules for their government ln-
e:ead of a mess of stuff that no new
mroiber can pet through his bend.
The select committee of the House
of Representatives, cossisting of ihe
speaker, Mr. Stevens, of Georgia,
Mr. Blackburn, of Kentucky, Mr
Garfield, of Ohio, and Mr. Frye, of
Maine, who have "Q considering
the subject of the rn ..-ion of tbe rules
of the House far some time, made
their report just before the adjourn
ment of the House fjr tbe holiday re
cess. They made their report, said
Mr Frve, tt this time in order that
the new rule might be piiuted in the
! re cord and tbat each member might
study them during the holidays, so
that Lea they return to their duties
en the G h of January, they could be
read and adopted at once. The report
tf the C.-muiitteo say that the new
rules are forty -five in number and are
abridged to the last degree In a
very simple and direct manner they
defiae tbe resn'-ctive duties of the
members of the House and of its par
ticular officers, how they are to be
eltcted and how their authority is Jo
be enforced. The privileges and tbe
restriction of members era also very
exactly defined, aod so is tbo order
of proceedings
Tbe rules defining the duties of the
speaker, which were bine in number,
have been reduced to one, with seven
clauses, all p'accd together.
Tbe rules relating to tbe clerk and
other officers have been reduced to
four, nader tbe bead.iof: "Election
of officers," "Duties of the clerk,"
"Duiies of tbo Serepant-at-arms,"
and "Duties of oiberofficcrs " Among
ihe changes made is tbat tbe election
of cbopluia, which bas been a matter
of custom, is crystallzed into a rule,
aad the wo'ds which make the ap.
pointees of tbe dootkeeper and post
master subject to the approval of tbo
speaker, have been stricken out, be-cuui-e,
the rule has become entirely
obsolete.
Tbe rule giving tbe sereeant-at-arms
fees, has been dropped; because
be is, by law, not allowed to receive
any. Another rule 13 amended so as
to increase the bond of tbe sergeant-at-srms
from $10,000 to $i0,000;
making Lim and his bondsmen re
sponsible for moneys received by him
for disbursexent of expenses of select
committees, and providing that no
member of Congress shall be accept
ed as a bondsman. There is a re
quirement inserted making the post
master responsible fer the safe deliv
ery of mail to members and others.
An additional rule bas been made
requiring tbe chaplain to be present
daily to open the session with prayer.
Under the rules relating to members
the principal changes are: 1st, that
there shall be a second roll call of the
roll when tbe names of those not
voting on the first are again called
over, and af:er that is completed no
member shall be allowed to vote. 21,
pairs ate to be announced at the desk
and G J, no member standing outside
ot ihe railirg behind the seats is to
be counted The changes will facili
tate tbe roll call, which now takes
half an hour.
All the rules, numbering 41, relat
ing to committees have been consoli
dated into two. The arrangement of
tbe call of committees is also slightly
changed ; the present order being ar
ranged with reference to the import
ance and business of tbe committee.
There is to be a daily call of all the
committees, and ail business reported
except tbat to which there is no ob
jection, is to be referred to the calen
dar or to the committee of the whole.
Among the important changes is one
which requires tbe Commerce com
mittee to prepme a river and harbor
fell, which is t be referred to tbe
committee on commerce, and by them
reported, and each clause must be
acted ou separately. This will pre
vent the logrolling for appropriations.
The report of the committee wili be
taken up on tbe Gth of January, and
its consideration will be contrned
from day to day until acted opo . fa
vorably or unfavorably to the ex fu
sion of all other business.
The report is th nnanimous v.jice
of tbe select committee, and it
probably will be adopted after a coup
le days or a week's debate. Accord
ing to the present roles and construc
tions put on them by partisan speak
ers, a small number of soreheads can
keep the House in a continual bed
lam if they desire. Tbe gang of big
mouthed statesmen in this Congress
certaii ly need some check on their
movements. Randall and Blackburn
see this and want to check mate tbem
for it is a notorious assertion made
here every day tbat there are more
schemes concocted in tbe House for
taking money out of the Treasury by
logrolling this session than was ever
known before. Tbe Democrats are
going to make a dying pall at tbe
public purse for tbey know it is tbeir
last run of shad. These schemes, or
the worst of them, are generally kept
back until the last days of tbe session
in order tbat tbe light of day may
not be shed up m them in the rush to
eet through business. It will be re
membered that the Chorpening claim
came very near going through in this
way a fewyears ago. The Chorpen
ing claim is now dropped; nobody
would touch it, and it is death to the
member, politically, who stirs op the!
matter in Congress; for this eld
claim is known too well by every
one to even get a bearing. The
logrolling flattened it oot as it were.
The appointment of supervisors of
the census will not be made by tbe
Presideut until after the hohdaya
District will, in all probaOilitr. b8
pi ven to the Democrats, and Tbomas
li. Searieht, of Uniontown, mad su

Now for a reet and Christmas!
It
Star of its tai h, but because it is es
sentially a ho.oe holiday, and so rec
ognizsd in all cbristian lands. We
must try an i make ourselves feel
young agaia ot we will not enjoy this
glorious festival, so my wife says,
and if I don't stop writing for the
Herald and go shopping with her.
she will set up an opposition and
scribble for the Democrat. That's
enough I'll go. We went and I
came back a poorer man, financially
speaking
No matter what the almanacs say
frora now on it is a merry Christmas
every day. Tbe holiday spirit is in
tbe air ; trade took time by tbe fore
lock and 6et out its wares in tempt
ing array, days ago. And everybody
wbo takes the affirmative cn tbe old
vexed question : "Resolved, that the
pleasures of anticipation are greater
tban those ot participation," must be
lieve that tbe preliminary shopping
is no small part of tbe holiday pleas
ure. Christmas greens festoon the
booths in tbe market places; tbe
sharp scent of tbe cedar is ia the air,
clinging mistletoe and thorny holly,
plume princess feather and scarlet
leaf and berry, every spray of deli
cate greenery that tbe frost spares to
tbe eleventh hour, is brought from
the woods to grace our household
festival. Ob, for a tree! every child
exclaims, for Christmas is not Christ
mas without a tree ! Time was,
when cue could celebrate it with a
stocking and a chimney corner, bat
we have changed all tbat, and a baf
fled Sauta Claus, shut oat from the
family htartn by a zealous Latrobe,
has turned bis attention to decorative
art and gets op marvelous Christmas
trees. He drives a wonderful tramc
ia tbem. The evergreen is grown
to enormous dimensions. Ihe cus
tom of decoration which used to
be confined to churches, and very
bitfb churches at tbat, bas become
universal. A beer saloon is festoon
ed like a cathedral and there is hard
ly a borne sa poor tbat it has not its
vrlimmer of Christmas green. Teo
pie spend more money each year, and
each year Christmas becomes a more
elaborate festival. New-year's day
is more formal, and it one "receives"
more fatiguing than eDjoyablc, Christ
mas is ouly "merry." It is the chil
drens' holiday ; it is theirs by birth
right, and tbat is why the shop win
dows are brigbt with juvenile pict
ures and toys relegating grown peo
ples' goods to the limbs of the inside
counter.
Never was there a more lavish
and beautiful display of toys. Tbe
ideal doll is on deck. She has all
ibe modern improvements. A mov
able bisque head, an indestructable
French kid body, and an unusual
number of joints which enable her to
strike more attitudes than were ever
dreamed of in her philosophy before.
She can turn Ler head around and
pose with as many different expres
sions as Maude Branscombe. There
are great dances, French mesdames
with wax faces and real hair, dolls
that can cry and open and shot tbeir
eyes, and who have almost as many
dresses as Queen Christine.
There are little dolls china, and
cheap you can bay one for five
cents. In a window up on oevenin
street is the old woman who lived in
a shoe, and had so many children she
did not know wbat to do. Sbe sits
back ia tbe heel of the shoe ; sbe has
fnzzes of "excelsior," and with a
patent wax face looks down on an in
step full of disorderly dolls tnat re
minds one of the House of Represen
tatives. Mechanical ingenuity seems
to have exhausted itself to please the
children. It is not merely swimming
dolls and ducks that quack simulta
neously, and jumping trogs and danc
ing bears, but there is such novelties
as elevated railways with rushing
trains and 6toves tbat bold real fire
and can broil a steak. There is a
Pinafore game, of course ; and there
is a wonderful speaking book tbat
discounts any automatic Swiss vil
lage. Oa each page is the picture of
an animal, and as tbe page is turned
the voice of the animal is heard. If
it is a Iamb, it bleats; if it is a dog,
it barks, aud so on.
Besides tbe regular stores, there
are the stands, tbat appear, like a
great prima donna, for one week oa
ly. Tbey crowd out on tbe side
walks with tbeir cheap wares of tin
aud clay and glass. There are tin
theatres tbat ""ill not burn down, full
of tin people, wbo will oot be panic
stricken, and tin watches and tin ani
mals warranted not to go to pieces.
There are glass slippers enough for a
thousand Cinderellas. There are
war tapers and cornecopias full of
candv, graven images, pop corn and
gilded walnuts, and canly dolls with
blue ribbons around their necks,
ready to be bung to a Christmas tree
Women are out shopping ia full
force. Mysterious packages are com
iug into booses at all bours. People
are judiciously blind to unintentional
revelations in regard to tbeir con
tents. Tbe air is full of the murmur
of innocent conspiracies. People are
plotting for each others happiness. It
is a better and a kinder world than
it was a month ago, and all btcaase
Christmas is coming. A merry
Christmas and a happy New-year to
you one and all.
