"1aTTI0E is utvan tn all whore it ul A 'ICTUR. Tho battle-piece, "The Storming of Chapultepoc," has recently be come a point of interest to mamy. It hangs in rather an out-of -the way-place, the north stairways to the Senate chamber galleries. I have always admired it for the vigorous intensity of the scene. The outlines of the splendid aqueduct that con veyed the water to the City of Mexico is seen on the right. Ciapultepee, crowned with its cita del, is wrappo.l in clouds, its base girdled with artillery around whose iron lips curls the smnoko of death dealing projectiles. Our men are rushing forward on the dloutblo quick, a few pausing by a covered culvert for water ; a dog sniff. at a fallen hat. A little to the left of the center stands General Shields, talking to General Quitintn, who is on horseback with his staff around him. Shields is in his shirt sleeves, his left arm in a sling improvised from a red handke chief ; his right rests on the hilt of his sword ; his head is covered by a gray sombrero. Many of the soldiors of the Pal, metto regiment ar"o in their shirt sleeves, for the day was insufferably hot in more than solar heat. A huge cactus conceals the advance, so gallantly done. General Shields' portrait is the only living Senator's that graces the walls of the Capitol, The old veteran has been hero for a few days and fought that battle over again as ho viewed the picture. Ho recalled many inemorable facts almost forgotten save by those who were present, among whom now in the United States Senate are Dorsey and Oglesby, who fought side by side with General Shields at Chapultepe.-- Vashington Letter. WAts of CoNGRESsEN.--I have observed this peculiarity about Con~ gressmen : Those who had to do the work of Hercules to get here, usually rest from their labors after their arrival, while those who won easily, through popular will, work like beavers-early and late. It is not all rose color to even the most commonplace M. C., after the wear ing effort of placing his own and his wife's relatives in office. He has a private calendar of cases of his constituents to look after. The double dealing and downright deceit he is forced to practice, is something appalling to an honera ble man. I once saw in the Houso reception room three beautiful young ladies exhaust a pack of visiting cards in their vain effort to bring out the members of a com, mitten having in charge certain legislation. After these baffled demossollos had departed, knowing the page, I asked if it was really true a wlhole committee was non est. He replied with great naiete. They were hidden in a cloak room and they told me to lie by th cube foot or they would have me dismissed." I noticed afterward that the par ticular measure which these ladies came to p)lead for wvas defeated. FIsH FOR SoUTH CARuoLTY.-Thro' the influence of Senator ]lutler who seems to be devoting nmuch of his time to the useful and profitable in Washington- Prof. Baird has determined to send several thousand shad for the streams in South Caro lina. It is probable that the agent in char go will roach Cohumbia within four or live days, and the fish will likely be planted in the Savannah, Broad and Cataw~ba Rivers, and the streams tributary to these in South Carolina. The points are not yet selected, and we would be glad to have immediate responses from dif ferent points, where the railroads cross the streams above named, whether there are any obstructions below them which would impede the fish in their progress down the country. This information is high-. 1?? desirable at once, as the young fish will be brought in cans, and it will be important to keep them as short a time as possible. Letters addressed to the editor of TIhe A7ews and (courier, in regard to this matter; will be placed in the hands of the proper parties on arrival.-. News and Courie, Ex-Governor Seymour, of New York, recently delivered a lecture before the school superintendents of that State, on "Short Words." He enjoined the use of short word sin both writing and speaking; anjd his .remarks f.urnished a pract'i cal il astratiow.that a o ost$on. wa 1.to 4I~ ly putQto ' ~e res DIFJTCVLTIES OFLEADIrNG 4 OAL\ He was a small but muscular boy, and the calf was probably two months old, with a development of unadulterated cussedness. There was a rope between them, and, as they went down South Third street, bets were about even as to whether the boy was leading the calf or the calf leading the boy. The calf made a dash for the Central express office. The boy pulled him back and he made a dash for the boy who ran around a wagon and fell over a watermelon pile, the pro, prietor whereof swore copiously: "Come back here, you infernal clodbustor, and pay for this melon." "Say, M'hister ! whoa-give me my-thunderation on you-hat, won't yor'i" And the calf kicked up his heels and b-a-a-d, and tried to run into a store, but the boy sat back on the line with all his strength and sud.. denly sat down in the mud as the calf altered his mind and turned around to look at him. They wont quietly ten steps, till a dog barked, when it took four circles around the boy in as many seconds, tying his legs up in the line, bringing himu down in the mud again and drag ging him around until he looked like an old hat that had been run over by the ice eart for two sea sons. A philanthropic fat man by the name of Wilson, a lawyer, went to the boy's assistance, but the calf kicked him on the shin and butted him in the condenser, so that he sat down on the curbstone and tried to die easy. Then the boy and calf entangled themselves and started down the street like a mail train behind time, until the calf, scaring at something, stopped sud denly, and the boy fell over it and lost the rope. The calf at once took to his heels, every boy in the street running after and grabbing at the rope, until it got tangled in the bridge, when his conductor caught him by the ear and tail, and a lively fight took place all across the bridge and out of sight, while everybody along the street pro ceeded to toll how easy it is to lead a calf if you only go their way about it.-- 47aston Free .Press.
