I accordingly put a question which I supposed would ejl out panegyric upon the orator of Virginia. I asked who was tin greatest orator ho had ever heard. The reply was startling from iu un expectedness. "The greatest orator ever heard," said Randolph, was woman. She was a slave. She w as a mother and her rostrum was the auction block." lie then arose and j imitated with thrilling pathos the tones with which this woman had I appealed to the sympathy and justice of the by-standers, and finally t lie in dignation with which be denounced them. "There was eloquence V be said. "I have hoard no man speak like that. It was overpowering!" He sat down and paused for some moments; then evidently feeling that he had been imprudent in expressing himself so warmly before a visitor from the North, ho entered upon a defense of the policy of the Southern statesmen in regard to slavery. " must concern ourselves with what is," he said, "and slavery exists. Wo must preserve t Vie rights of the states, as guarauteed by the Codstitution, or tho negroes are at our throats. The question of -lavery, as it is culled, is to us a question of life and death. Remember it is a necessity imposed on the South ; not a Utopia of our own seeking. Yen will find n in stance in history where two distinct races have occupied tbewiil except In the relation or master and :a"." I brought away only these few frag ments of an elaborate defense of the course which he and other Southern ers felt compelled t pursue ; but they give its nature with sufficient clearness. I again ventured to touch upon the subject of oratory, and this time Mr. Randolph broke into a disquisition upon the nature of the illustrations which a speaker might draw from literature. I regret (hat I CftU eivo so little of What hp said ; but so much as i have preserved i substantially iu his own words ; "It is i grant blunder for n Speaker to allud" to ImoUs which are !. familiar lo his audience. A Quotation from Horace Or Juvenal will do in the Itrilih Pac- I lament. Tho members are i: tl grad nates from Oxford and Cambridge and they understand It. Dut what folly it would bo to quote the dames to nn average American audience. I know of only three books with which all decently educated Americans urn familiar.

If subscribers move to other places without informing the publisher, and the newspapers are sent to the farmer direction, they are hold responsible.

"That is not quite exact," said Che preacher ; I make speeches hut I am not a stat( s man." The little maid hereupon cor rected her earlier definition, and called out : " A statesman is a man who makes good speeches." The man who can break tws lamp chimneys in one nigkt and not even think te swear is a qentleman. (Tin- li1rnlt KSM PNM Mm ) BACKWOOD'S JOLLITY.

When a married woman buys a pug dog at a low price, she gets a bargain, and her husband gets sameebiug to boot. Maiden lady's quotation slightly al tered from an old aphorism " Where singleness is Btim. 'tis folly to be wives." The man w hose hair turned white in a single night is surpassed by a girl who lost her's completely off iu a single dance. " When I die," said a married man, " I want to go where there is no snow to shovel." His wife said she presumed he would. A man gave his residence as "the Court House," and it was afterward as certained that he hud five marriageable daughters.

A Massachusetts man was bragging that one of the leading politicians of that state always shook hauds with a smile. Said the Connecticut man : "So does a lobster."
