FOR DURABILITY, STYLE AND FINISH, WE ARB vvatrsj. TYSON & JONES, Carthage, N. C- Mr. Springer's Scheme to Facili- fate Business. Washington cor. PeiladeU-hia i lines. Among the things embraced in Mr. Springer's proposed revision , of the Houserules is an amendment to con -solidate committees, and this subject is being dismissed by members who have arrived.' Whether it will meet with, the favor of a majority of mem bers remains to be seen. In the make up of committees ; great pressure is brought to bear ; on the Speaker for committee places and chairmanships, and to satisfy members additional committees have been formed from time to time Many of these com mittees are entirely- useless and have been formed simply to, accommodate certain members with chairmanships and clerks. But the large increase in the membership of the House has increased this pressure upon- the Speaker and will render it more dif ficult to secure a change. It-has long been considered by all good parlia mentarians that the present system ot committees ana metnoa or aistn buting legislation should for the sake of economy and to facilitate public business be revised. Many ot the committees were formed -years ago since '-..which time great changes have taken place in the legislative require ments of the country, , borne com mittees which were very prominent then have lost their importance now altogether. - - r :.. - - It is proposed ; to appropriately combine these committees and form onlv two or three where there have heretofore been a dozen. For in stance, the banking and currency ana coinage committees, it is sug gested, might be united under the head ef , the finance committee ; the Pacifie railroads committee and com mittee on railways and canals under the title of the latter; the various committees on expenditures in the several department s might be united undri the head ot the committee, on public expenditures. The latter com mittees have had practically nothing to do since 1 the Forty -tourth ana Forty-fifth Congresses, when, under the wrover resolution, they were ems powered to conduct v investigations into the affairs of th Executive ue- partBflent. with one result, at least, and that the downfall of Belfcnap, the -then Secretary of War. Since that time they have fallen - into old rutsand are only useful to the chair men as pretexts for giving them clerks. These committees arelast on the list and least in point ' of impor anceand priority, and bills referred to them have litile prospect of being reported and considered by the House. So it has grown almost to a practice by the Speaker to refer bills which he wishes to tali- to these com mittees. There is a s growing sentiment against the practice and the opinion prevails that the committees are the the agents of the House; that every measure of legislation referred to them should be considered and re ported in some form or other, and that for this reason thero should be a concentration V of duties in fewer committees. . It is proper now in this day of civil service and other reforms to begin to use the pruning finite in Congress, where it is needed quite as much as in the executive branch, it is well to begin with the committees, but the good work might go farther and clip and clear out other branches of the legislative departments. . This would involve the question of fitness, classification of duties and salaries of officers and clerks and" there is plen tv of room for reform in - these re spects. ..... l i A Ililliardist's Form of Insanity, New York Dispatch to the Boston Heralds The insanity of joe 'Dion,- the bn liardist, makes him imagine that he is. constantly playing important match games. Jdis hrst crazy vagary was to fancy that he was engaged in the Chicago tournament.; He went all through with games in his billiard rooms,-believing that he was in the (Jhicago hail ana that a Dig assems blage was watching his contests with the players : mere ie msistea on bulletining his mythical victories in front of the premises and gave con siderable money to Iriends to be with on his winning - the champion ship. On being taken to the Bloom insdale Asylum the lack of a billiard tabled did hot disabuse him of his de lusion and be : is constantly going through the motions of play without cue Or ' balls.- The pantomime is curious study in dementia and the physicians say that the Case is a rare oce in the perfection and persistency of the hallucination. , It is probable that he can be cured. - " I is the old. old story: Love at first 'sluht! wa k ia a& beamiiul nioonllnt night; both uatch a o tad ul cold aud give up. all boye, but-, finally fird reUer m a bottle of Dr. bull's Couh-ayrup get marriea and are at last nappy. . , - A New York Stage Manager's Dis course on His. Experience in Xhis Line. - Mall and Kiprtsa : . Between what ages are the chil dren you train for the stage . :Six months is the youngest age at which I take them. .Of course, I don't want many as young as that, but I liko to have two good babif-s al ways on hand, The babies in -'Cont usion were mine- and 1 supplv tU1 baby for 'Hearts of- Oilc.V F-om babyhood I fikip f cur years, the other children ranging in age from four to ourteen. I don t confine mvself to supplying New York managers but will engage children for good travel ing companies, at in same time ens deavoring . to get ; their mothers or elder sisters engaged as FUpor ladies. The little ones I instruct are usually the children ofi people in middle cir cumstances, and their earnings are a nice help to the family. I never call rehearsal . f-.-r any lime during school hours and I am careful to see that the children are properly ..taken care of on their way to and from the theatre. 1 also notify the Society for the prevention of Cruelty to Chil dren of all engagements I make. For these reasons Mr. Gerrv does not trouble me " , - . "Do you find it easier to teach girls or boys?" : "Boys, most decidedly Tne little girls think too much of dress. Even my little Bnou has the mania She d ways ask 8: 'Mammal AmIpoor,in the beginning and rich in the end or poor all through?' If it's the former she's perfectly eatisfied, if the latter, she doesn't like it?' Don't some of tho children become very stagey by becomiug constantly amid theatrical surroundings?" ' Undoubtedly, and I can tell vou someexamples whichare aspathtic as they are amusing. One little fellow. the first time he . was taken to the seashore, exclaimed . as he saw the waves rolling in: 'Mamma! How do they work them? Anather child, a little girl, recently went to the coun try for the first time. It was night when she started.; Earlv in the morning she looked out of the win dow at the country landscape. Why mamma,' .she said, 'that must have been painted by Yoegtlin'.'" 1 CHILDREN Of XIIE STAGE.

" The : American Grocer contains a lengthy article on the commercial and monetary, relations between gold and silver and the advantages of the general discussion which has arisen on this subject. In closing the Amer ican lirocer says : We can not shard in the opinion of those who predict a 'great calamity to the commercial world if Congress refuses to suspend the coinage of the standard dollar, and for several reas eons: ;-- v- - - 1: In 1873 the amount of gold coin in the country was - $135, 000 000, of which $98,00u,000 was owned by the United States treasury and National banks. On July 1,1885, the country owned $542,000,000 of sold coin, of "which one half . was . held by the treasury and the banks. .- 2. The.world owes this country on merchandise alone $145,000,000. 'Eu rope is now buying American securi ties and thus largely increasing its indebtedness. This is a growing country, develop ing in a phenomenal manner each year, and it seems the height of ab surdity to argue that an addition of 124,000,000 in silver to its currency, under the above conditions, is going to. bring upon us disaster. Taylor and .Scott. r General Taylor, w rote General Grant in the first volume of his book, never wore a uniform, but dressed himself entirely for comfort.1 He moved about the field in which he was operating to see through his own eyes the situation Often he would be without staff officers, and when he was accompanied by them there was no prescribed order in which they folio wed. r He was very much given to sitting on his horse side ways, with both; feet on one side, particularly on the battlefield. General Scott, says General Grant, was the reverse of Taylor in, all parv ticulars. t He always wore all the uniform' prescribed or. allowed' by law "When he inspected his lines word would be- sent to . all, division and brigade conmanders in advance notifying them of the hour when the commanding general might be ex pected. -On these occasions he wore his dress uniform, cocked hat, aiguil letes, saber and .. spurs. His staff proper, besides all officers, construc tively on his staff, folio wed 'also in uniform and in prescribed order. Mo6erI Mothers!! Mothers!
