A TOnOHINGIIIOIDENT.
TO THE EDfTO OF THE NEW KoRTH WEST:
Quite reeeutly tbe personal estate of
the kite Mrs. Nellie Curl, of Salem, was
soki Hi auetlon. Her volumiuous letters
of eorreflpondeuce, about forty of ber
books, several rolls of periodicals and
her book-ease sold for only four and a
balf dollars. The bidders did not seem
to regard tbe tender reminiscences, tbe
valued letters, or tbe favorite books of
tbe deceased, rext day I was tit ber
bouse for some articles, wblcb a klus
mau of mine had bought, and In the
yard I found the enclosed manuscript of
JIlss JSellle Stlpp afterward the noble,
tbe talented, and now lamented Mrs. Nel
lie Curl. If you appreciate those linesof
nature's true poetry, as I think you will,
let them appear in tbe columns of the
Kew Korthwest, many of which
were among her files of papers. A
true, noble woman is cone from our
midst. Death loves a shining mark.
Earth has lost ber brilliant gem ;
heaven has received a glorified angel. I
am not writing the obituary of Mrs.
Curl. I knew ber well, and only bear
witness to ber extraordinary worth.
I remain your friend and well-wisher,
David Xewbomk.
The following Is tbe poem alluded to:
Heboid banana favored land.
With luscious fruit and breezes bland;
Where artless band deck Datura bowers
With verdant leave and gorgeous lower.
Here bird of various plumage ring
In groves where bloom perpetual Spring;
And reptiles baak near silvery streams
"Where sunlight caste its golden gleam.
Heboid the land of beauty bright.
Which roust all human hearts delight.
Surely, methlnk, such land would be
An Eden from all tempters free.
Where all earth's purest Joys are found,
And health and harmony abound.
Mat Ob! behold humanity
Where spread the fair banana tree.
tic here Disease her tendrils twines
With Sorrow willow-woven shrines;
While energy, ambition, fame.
In this prond xone no spot can claim;
., And even purity Is doomed
, Within IU bounds to lie entombed.
Here Spain proud sons of noble birth
Hank with tbe lowliest of the earth.
Hera indolence all minds corrode
And renins shuns men's mean abode.
While luxury's polluting hand
Hpreads degradation through the land,
Aad superstition's frightful ghost,
Ijtle specters on tbe Stygian coasts,
Invade each breast with false alarms.
And fills the air with fiendish forms.
Sow tarn we sadly from this scene.
Though decked In nature fairest green,
TO case on lauds whose fertile fields
lraf osely Erin's tuber yields.
- Wat though Weak Winter ruin supreme
Hsiougli all the zone and not a gleam.
Of Sol's warm light, their hearts to cheer,
Have northern home for half the year,
Yot here the hardy son of toil
With honest labor till the toil.
And show the vrorid that blet Is he
Who labors that he may be free.
2fe land Is all this world ot ears.
Though sleeked In tropic rratt and Sowers,

lie tfoen't know very much. He can
ask the questions laid down lu bis test
book, and determine with a good degree
of accuracy whether tbe answers are re
peated correctly. He carries a pen over
tils ear, a stiok in bis right band, and a
book in bis pocket. He considers It of
much mare importance to secure obedl
ettee and suiimieslon than intellectual
discipline. He frequently says: "Learn
your lenn ! If you ask any questions
yon hIiuII be punished J It is not for
you to know the reason why ! Wiser
heads titan yours or mine have written
the books, aud it is your duty to learn
what is written, and miue to make you
do it I Study 1" He requires absolute,
unquestioning submission. He neither
thinks for himself nor permits bis pupils
to do so. He believes bis books aud fol
lows bis nose. He is the sworn enemy
of moral schools, teachers' Institutes,
and universal free education. With new
text-boots be has no patience, aud takes
no special interest in new inventions ;
In fact, be rather more than half le
lieves tbat Edison is a humbug. He
dally puts on tbe skull-cap of bis own

have many such teachers yet lingering

explain to them bow the Constitution
will work In tbe way of taxation, and
Ihiw their dividends wilL be reduoed.

THURSDAY...
OtJB WASHINGTON tfiftES.
To the Editor or the Sew North wxvr:
When the vole was taken on tbe army
bill, with the repealing amendments at
tached, the Greenback members in the
House voted with the Democrats, with
three exceptions. It has since ueen said
that their votes were so oast in pursu
ance of an agreement on the part of the
Democrats to vote for a Monday session,
to permit tho Introduction of certain
financial measures, which, under the
rules, can ouly be ottered on Mondays.
But tbe motion to adjourn over from
Saturday to Tuesday was carried, only a
portion of the Democrats votlug no with
the Greeubackers, and I presume there
wasn't any bargain about It, No doubt
these gentlemen voted according to their
convictions, though they may have
hoped to make the Democrats feel under
some obligation to assist them after
ward in geltiug their measures before
tbe House. From all I can learn, bow
ever, coucernlng tho views of members
on tbe Democratic side, I think the ma
jority of tbem would prefer to avoid en
tering into any financial legislation this
session. JUut at tbe session commencing
in December a regular programme, cm
bracing free coinage of gold or silver,
with a coinage of the latter to the full
capacity of the mints, and abolition of
tho national banks, will be adopted,
Mr. Atkins, of the Appropriation Com
mittee, recently said tbat this would be
about the position of his party, though
there will be a wide diUerenceof opinion
as to whether greenbacks or treasury
notes would bo substituted for the na
tional bank note. As tho House now
stands, there is a decided majority, lu
aluding both Republicans aud Demo
crats, opposed to any legislation on this
subject at present, aud I am satisfied
none will be aoeomplisbed at the extra
session, though the Democratic caucus
has deelded to hold Monday sessions
hereafter to permit bills to be Intro
dueed.
The Idea of authorizing by law the
formation of a corps of parliamentary
attorneys has again been brought tor-
ward. J!ut, as usual, it is made to lllus
trnle the all-grasping disposition of the
legal profession, aud lu tbat respect
needs watching. As proposed, the
members of tbe corps authorized to reg
later for practice before the committees
of Congress must be members of tbe
bar. This restriction is grossly unfair
and improper. The examination by t
committee of a subject upon which leg'
ishition Is asked or proposed is, in uo
sense, a judicial process. Ou tho con
trary, It is distinctly not a lawyer's ar
guuieut which, in a great majority of
cases, a Congressional committee needs
or ought to listen to. Suppose It to be
tbe Ways aud Means Committee eu
gaged lu revising tbe tariff ; would not
a statement from au importer, from
silk manufacturer, from a wine rner
obaut, from tbe proprietor of a priut
works, from a carpet-maker, or an iron
mouger, be more useful than anything
the best lawyer could say? Suppose
the subject of proposed legislation to re
late to railways and telegraph ; must a
lawyer be paid to elucidate it? Suppose
it an international copyright ; must
authors speak only through an advo
cate's mouth 7 The fact is, tbe lawyers
are over-mueh represented in Congreee,
which would be the better for more
farmers, merchants and physician
among its members. To make every
body but lawyers ineligible as parlia
mentary attorneys would be to aggro
vale au evil that is already obvious
enough to all but lawyers.
Mr Gorham, wiio has just been re'
Ileved of the duties of Sesretary of the
Senate, rendered his final account a day
or two ago. He has beeu an exoelleul
oOlcer ; and, after eleven years' service,
during which he has disbursed many
millions for tbe United States Senate
is the most expensive body on earth
he closes his account for the first time,
It was found at the Department that
there was one cent owing him. In an
oQlolal letter, which had to be copied
recorded, numbered, etc., the United
States Treasurer notified Mr. Gurhatn of
the balance on settlement, and request
ed hi tn to draw a check for the amount
With the same precision as though
million of dollars was at stake, tb
check was drawn, and a messenger oou
veyed it to the Treasury. Tbe books
were searched to see If the accouut was
to Gorham's credit, and then the ceu
was paid a great big copper one, which
the ex-Secretary proposes to keep for
luck forever. It seems that, had he not
drawn the balance, it would have gon
on forever among the liabilities of ill
Treasury, and occasioned any amount
of trouble to the clerks.
