3 KAN DMA SNOW'SVAI-BfITIIVUS,
An Old Fnahioucd I.ore Slorj.
BY O. DE B. '
It was St. Valentine's eve, and a cold
blustering, windy night, there had not,
as ret, been the faintest suspicion of
spring time in the atmosphere; indeed,,
there was every indication of a long and
heavy winter lingering in the lap ol spring
instead, and the bleak wind whistled aud
blew furiously as Kalpli Wayland quick-
ly opened and closed the door yf No. 20
' Wiutlirop Square, and strode down the
street with rapid steps. The wind might
bo cold, but his temper was hot enough,
und bo rather enjoyed the keen nipping
air, that fanned his heated brow as be
paced the square. Behind that same
dosed door, there was bidden enothfir 1
pair ot hot flushed cheeks, and a feminine
tern, erjquile as waim prompted the an
gry words that fell irom Bertha Warren's
pretty Hps.
'He may just gol He is ridiculously
jealous, aud unreasonably and unjust; I
will not be dictated to and controlled in
this munuei, ami 1 don't care; So there,
sir I' and with a flounce of silken frills
and fringes, and a toss of the brown pulls
aud braids that adoined the suftcy little
head, Bertha Warren slummed the parlor
door and rau up stair* into the sitting
room. It was only uiire o'clock, but there
was no one up but Grandma Snow, and
she was very busy sorting over and read
ing some old papers at her secretary ; So
Bertha threw herself dowu upon the
lounge, aud protending lo take a little
nap, enjoyed a quiet littlo cry to herself,
bemoaning thecruelty aud unreasonable
uesb of lovers in general, and hers in
particular. It was such a bare trifle, (bis
, quarrel, so thought Bertha; all übout a
simple little paper cutter. Charley Ben->
net had brought it to her fioiu abroad,
aud sbe bad accepted it, ot course, as
lrom a friend. Why not ? She and Char
ley bad baen acquainted long ■ before she
ever kuew Ralph Wayland; to be sure
there was a lime, before Charley went
away, that be wanted to be more than a
friend; but to that sbe bad not consented
aud so they had bade one another good
bye as old friends, no more. Dtfring his
absence, she had said "yes" to Rulph
Wayland's same importuning, and bad
promised to oue day vow to Move, honor
and obey' him: but she wa3 not ready
just yet, to submit to his authority, and
so sbe rebelled against his jealous pro.
tests concerning Charley Beunet/Mreuew
ed atteutious, aud her acceptance of
his gin. Love with her did not mean
subjection, and she would show Ralph
Way laud that sbe had a spirit of her own,
that would not brook a curb—and she
'didn't care if he was angry, and went
homo without kissing her good -night,
aud slammed the door'—aud just hero a
choking sob put an eloquent end to her
brave determination not to care.
'What is It, Bertie?' asked grandma,
looking up from her letter* with a pcruti
niziug gaze at the flashed face, hid down
among the sofa pillows.
'Nothing, Pve—l've got a cough,'
gasped Bertha, iu a choking tone.
•Has Ralph gone home so eurlj? on
Valeutiue's evi, loo?—why what is the
trouble, dear? ou such a night lovers
should be happy together, bee, I am
with mine, iu memory, to-night,' and
Grandma pointed to a little pile ol papers
by her side.
Bertha lifted her head, and seeing
grandma's secret drawer o|«en, rose and
came over beside tho old lady, and knelt
down beside the secretary. There aps
pea red to be a heap of old notes aud let
ten, all written iu the *ame hand, but

which was printed in a childish. sprawl
ing hand:
"If-yon love me ti» I love von,
No knife can cut our love in two,"
'That surely was from a little boy
sweetheart,grandma,'said Deniia,laugh
ingly. '.Now let Mb sec some ol'the oth
ers,' and taking up another, she read in
a bolder, tinner hand, the same lines:
"If you love me as 1 love you,
No knifo cau cut onr love iu two,"
and again another, and another paper,
all containing the same refrain.
• Why, Grandma!' cried Bertha in a
somewhat puzzlecj, tone, but wiili an
amused look upon her face.
'Yes dear.' replied grandma, nodding
her head and looking sevions. ' Yes they
art# all alike. I had one every yc:y, from
the.liiue. wiieu your grandfather and I
used to go to school together, little boy
and girl, ami sit on opposite sidi-s of the
school house, up to the tin.e we sat side
by side in church; young man and maid

as well; here is me last one he sent me,
the Valentine's day before be—before
he was taken aud I left—aud you see it
was always (he same
"If you love me as 1 love you,
No knife can cut our love in two,"
—and I did love him, just so dearly, and
no knife, 110 (rouble, nor sorrow, nor
euro,ever separated us, not even death;
for 1 ain still his Jove, as he is mine!'and
Grandma Snow's white head was bent
down over the little pile of papers, and
her lace hiddeu.
The lines had a mnv sound to Bertha's
cars. 'No knije can cut our lovq in
two,' Was a foolish little wooden paper
knife going to separate lialph and her?
was love so tender a thing, then? wa ß her
love so weak and Irai'l that it could not
pardon a lover's reasonable jealousy ?
A new light shone upon theaflairnow;
she began to look at Charley Runnel's
renewed aticniou through Ralph's eyes,
and she was sorry ; but she had refused
lo promise iier lover to receive- neither
attention or gifts.
'lie never forgot the day,' continued
grandma, alter a liule silence. "'There
whd always a Valentino for mother.
Sometimes it was a pretty now silk that
1 had admired, or a ticket for sjmo lee
ture oi concert, or a book 1 wanted; but
witb St. Valentine's day, there always

'That MJ/#S old-fashioubd love grandma.
I don't Ufclieve the (ovo of,, to-day is so
lasting or eo trjie; is it, do you think?'
asked Bertha, timidly.
'Fashioned? there is no fashion in lovg,
my dear; it is worn always in ono spot
—next lire heart; and when once truly
adopted, nevet wears out.'
Bertha was silent for a moment; then
she asked, gravely:
'Ditl you and Graudpa over quarrel,
wheii you were lovers? was he over jeaN
ous, and were you ever batelul?'
(J i and ma smiled as slic glanced ut the
blushing, conscious face, uud answered:
•Oil yes, we had our little difference of
opinion, to be 6ure; but love always
came to the rescue and smoothed out the
wrinkles, and made the crooked places
straight; sometimes it was he who was
wrong, but as otten it was I; out 'no
knile'of distrust or jealousy, or petulant
temper, could 'cut our love in two;' and
thus it is always with pure, iruo, fond
atlectiou; it overlooks and makes allow
ances, and forgives aug forgets every
little struiu upon its tender spots.'
'Thank you grandma, dear. Your
Valentine has been just what I needed
to-night. Italph and I have quarrelled,
but 1 was to blame the most; and 1 am
very sorry, and I will be Uio first to make
amends,' and ki-sing thaold lady, Bertha
hurriedly run up to her room, where she
wrote the following little note, whnh
was received b/ Mr. Italph Waylaud the
next {uorniug:

St. Valentine's day dawned bright aud
beautiful. The high, wild winds had
died away in the uight, and with the
suusiiiue there caine soft promising spring,
airs that whispered ol the new life down
Iu the earth's heart. Sparrows ctjirpcd
in tho park, aud blue biids and robius

'spring, spring, beautiful spring.'
At brcaklast time a messenger boy

It was while in the House, in Conii
mittee of ilie whole, was discussing the
mailer of Ihe revision ot the rules. Th#
old rules, Air. Cox said, had been inVoni
ed lor ihe purpose noi of faciliiatnig, but
of 1 mpc«liLegislation. The statesmen
ot that day i»ad not been in lavor of
opening sluices for legislation. But
since then the number of bilis in Con
gress had increased from 300 or 400 to
about 7,000, ami thereforo a revision of
the rules bail become necessary and iiu
dispensible to facilitate legislation.
Turning bis atleniion to lloVr, of Michi
gan, who had roceiujy refered to iiimiii
a humorous he deniod that the
committee on Furc(*u A flairs bad . only
been engaged in maufactunng witticisms

uameiital lie reniiiMludHlifit gentleman,
However, that all humor in debate should
have a pntcticle object. All great men
were, and had been, witty. [t was.
therefore, no cause ot reproach (hat the
committee on Foreign Atlairs had a
chairman who sometimes had been ac
cused, put never fairly convicted, of wit-,
licism. [Laughter.] Laughter was
health. It was good for the house. It
oiled ihe joints and the countenance,
causing it to shine like that cf his iriend
(llorr.) lie asked that gentleman, ' wliv
should the spirit of mortal be proud?'
Why should there be proud flush in the
House? It tioliah or Dun Lambert were
here would they twit a man like himself
about his size. Isaac New'on, whun
born, was put by his mother in a quart
cup, lie wished he had a cup to tr> the
gentleman (llorr) with lie (C\>x) was
uot proud of his appearance. He did
not swell around the llonsc, as sumo
others did. When somebody asked Fal
stall what he was about, somebody said,
' Two vardi.' There was no disability
under the law iu a man's being Small,
tli# Constitution lorbado a man being a
member under a certain aye, but It did
not say that a uiau had to be six feet
high or two yards iu girtn. [Laughter at
the expense ol Horr, who is a large, stout
ulan] lie (Cox) represented large men,
lighting men, good men. They bad
nvver taken his altitude, and tbe gentle
man (Horr) should not have done it.
His coHsiituents never thought that blub
ber was intellect, that meat meant man
hood cr that layers ot lard over the ab
dominal muscles made Gladstones and
Disraelis. Shakespeare had said that
floeh and frailty ever weut together, and
that the devil would never nave Falsi atl
damned lest the oil iu bim should set hell
on tire. He mado these remarks iu the in
terest of Public improvement. Suppose
the gentleman (Hon) had a large duo
denum, a larger sternum or a longer os
coccygis than hi tried i; or Buppose that
gentleman's ancestors bad held ou with
a prehensile grip ot the old Darwinian
limb and with a longer and stronger
power than his (Cox's) ancestors hud
done, would that give the uentlemau a
right to critise him (Cox) on account of
hiisizd. It be (Cox) were called upon
to write tbe gentleman's epitaph be
would [borrowing troin the sweet 'Sing
er ot Michigan' and Lord Byron] put in
these words: 'Here lies the body afCon
grcssinan llorr; 'tis grease [tiicece[, but
living grease no more.'
Alter some rein arks in reply to Mr*
Keuua, ot West Virginia, Mr. Cox closed

IIORR'S REPLY NKXT DAY.
The galleries were crowded with spec
tators aud the member-* gathered around
Mr. lloir who spoke from the space iu
from of the speakers de«k.
lie stated that belore he began Ins re
ply to ilie eloquent and able s|>eccli of
Iho disiinguished and weighty gentleman
from New York [Mr. Cox] ho would
ask the clerk to read the speech or a por
tiou of it, which he [Mr. llorr] bmi de
livered a few days ago, and which had
occasioned that iearlul eflort which ihc
House had witnessed yesterday.
The clerk rea las follows: 'Genial lit
tle frioud.' [Loud applause and laughs
tcr.]
Mi*. Ilorr jusrjfied himself tor usinsf
those words by explain,nj thatlbey were
spoken iu the beat of debute. [Laugh
ter.] lie had *|»eui his boyhood in man
ual labor aud hard work and was con
sequently sometimes embarrassed and in
this extreme diffidence dropped words
which he was »or. y/ofr after vards. ilad lie
known the seusilik'ene»s of lliogenllciiriu
from Nsw York: had lie known the po
etry of his nature, he would have ad
dressed the gentleman iu the language of
a modern |>oel as 'dear iiitle Buttercup.'
JUou tinned laughter.] Alluding to the
book' Why we Laugh,'whkij Mr. Ox
had sent to lutn yesterday, he said thai
he regarded it us the gentleman's best
work because it contaiucd very liulc
Cox and a good deal of other men.
[Laughter.] Nothing had been further
irutn his mind than the idea of bciiiiliug
the gentleman from New York belore
this asseuioly. lie knew the gentleman's
weight aud accomplishment and tar be it
from hiiu lo contest with hiiu. Why,
some oue had intimated to hiiu that ii
was thought he was lr>log to get souic
belt from the gentleman. (iood heav

simple a statement and yet how trno.
But he wa..led to make i\ suggestion to
his friend which he thought would add
to his already cxccedinu gr;ice and be >il
ly, and that was that Brother Cox should
| pai t his hair in the middle and wearbanjjs.
j fLoud anil continued laughing.] lie
[Mr. Hon] now approched another sub
ject 'remhlingly, bocausu his Iriend had
told the iloiii>u yesterday that ha once
blew a inah right through a key-hole,and
he (Mr. llorr) did not want such a tight
scpieez". His friend had made a spcoch
diiri'ig Hie extra session »»:i the -test
oath.' That speech had marked in it
'laughter' fourteen times, 'applause' six
times, 'great laughter' once, "applause
and laughter". oii:c,.m 1 'long «»u
tinned appbtuse' once, 110 wanted
to know-il the rumor was true that that
speech had been printed, laughter, ap
plause ami ad, three days before it was
delivered. [Uoanj ol laughter.] That i
was a big an vantage. Geiillenteii who!
could sit down in ttio darkness of the
midnight hour, and when they got a
lunny thing just stop and cheer ilium*
selves, and write in 'lujHghier' had a
great advantage. The gentleman did i
100 much forjthe world. That was prob
ably the reason for his being so thtfi.
it ho furnished the Mnnxhter' and lei the
world ftiniish the 'applause' it would not
draw so on bis consiiiutiou.
For dm purpose, as ho explained, of
showing llitil lie was not wholly to Maine
tor having uppilod iho term 'genial little
I'riend' to Hie gentleman troui New York,
llorr sent to the clerks desk a liouud voU
uiiie ot Jlurper'H Weekly, which the clerk
held up to tlio lull view of the House,
opened at a picture which represented
Cox as the speaker of tho House, willi
his feet resting on the back of the chair.
This action oi lion's was greeted with
rour» of laughter, which broke out Afresh
when that goiiticnian stated that tho
picture had been published just alter Cox
had not been elected Speaker? Who
ever looked at that picture, lie said,
would notice 1 hut tho gentleman had
been placed with his feet on top of
tho Speakers chair, so that he could get
his lioad oyer the desk, lie had heard
that his friend had once slated that had
ho beeu six incites taller he wo.ild have
been i'residclit. (Laughter) The Dcin
ccrutib party had fallen into the same
mistake as the gentleman in giving heed
to muscle instead of bruins, li iho gen
tleman trout Now York bad three lueti
cs ami a 10l of votes more lie might have
been speaker ot'the House. He wished
to say in conclusion that wfiatovef he
might hereafter say in debate lie begged
the gentleman from New York to under
stand that he had no malice or harduos9
of heart ugaiust him. That gonlicmaii
had been kiuil enough to give hiui an
epitaph. He [Horr] was not a poet, but
a friend had written for hi in an epitaph
upon the gentleman from New York,
which lie thought just covered the case!
