Washington, Nov. 18.-The first item that has appeared in Washington newspapers concerning the approach ing short session of Congress contains the. statemcnt, that Representative Page, of North Cafolina, and Repro sentative Johnson, of South Carolina, are busy in preparation of the bills which their positions as committee men require them to introduce and I)ilot through the house. Mr. Page is a brother or Ambassa dor Walter It. Page, who represents the United States at the Court of St. James. He is a member of the com mittee on appropriations, and one of the strong non of the house.

Mr. Page is chairman of the subcommittee which vill prepare the appropriation for the istrict of Columbia, one of the tim (ortant items of the annual budget.

Mercllessly Abused. One vivid impression left on the mind by the revival of the savage at. tacks by which Keats was assailed in the Quarterly and Blackwood, is that criticism has at least become urbane. Apart fr m the rashly conident con termpt r what the world now recog nizes as great poetry, these early nine. teenth. century reviewers cannot be forgiven the brutality of their treat. ment of a young ian whose only of. fense had been to publish a book of verse. Fancy a critic nowadays taunting an author 'with the fact that lie had been an apothecary, bidding him go "back to the shop," and at the sane time protesting that personal feeling to. wards such a person would be as out of place as towards vermin. It is dif flcult to understand how men who wrote in this strain could be the ac cepted literary 'censors of any ago. The fact is that behind this savage violence and insensibility lurked ra cial prejudice. It was, as Byron recorded, a case of "English Bards and Scotch Review. ers." The one thin-g that could not be forgiven to John Keats was his cock ncy birth. Yet time has brought in its revenges. A lmundred years have gone; and the only claim to remembrance of these confident Scotch reviewers is the curious interest that is reflected on them by the immortal memory of the poet whom they used so despite fully. Monstrosity Among Newspapers. Those who object to the widespread newspaper may see the apotheosis of their bete noir in the museum at Aix la-Chapelle--the only existing copy of the "Illuminated Quadruple Constel lation," published in New York in 1859. Happily this monstrosity did not sur vive the first issue, tor its pages meas ure eight and one half feet by six feet and each contains 13 columns, 48 Inches long. By way of comparison, it may be mentioned that the smallest newspa per in the world is the Mexican El Telegrama, with pages four inches square. OIL SHIP HELD.

LYON.) Some m1en were looking over a weedy pasture and one of them said: "What shall I do with these weeds?" Quick as a flash his neighbor said: "Sell 4hem in Imutton[ at 6 cents a pound." Every man knows his own business best and can best decide what kind of stock will pay limn the greatest profit, but on most farms there is room for a small flock of sieep and at the end of the season the 'money the wool and lambs will bring will be that much clear profit. Going back to the first proposition, that of the weeds that infest our fieJds it may be said that while growing sheep entirely u)on weeds, is not a plan to be advised, they will eat nearly every weed that grows upon a farm and will put on good, solid fat upon stuff that cattle and horses re fuse. The most tractable of all farm stock, they can be managed with less trou ble than other stock, all that is re luired to restrain them being a wire let fence of the cheapest grade. The other day I was talking over 'he sheep question with some friends ind while we did not' agree as to )reeds, we were unanimously in favor >f the breed of sheep that will bring t good heavy shipping lamb with the leece a secondary consideration. This is the very season to think of itartilg a flock as a great many flock nasters sell off some ewes as soon as ihearing time is over, and unless a nan has plenty or means in these days le will have to start with such ewes s lie can buy on the market, thor mghbreds being almost out of the luesUon for the ordinary farmer.
