His avoirdupois was In keeping with the vast territorial area he represented As a wit he was without a rival In his section. The admiration of his cou stitnents over the marvelous attain ments of the uew member scarcely exceeded his own OnJy the opportu nity was wanting when the star of the gentleman from New York should go down and bis own lie hi the ascendau The opportunity mi length came. In the great speech made by the new member Mr. Cox was the victim of the hour, the recipient of many eonipll ments much more fervid than kiud The seven vials of wrath were opeued upon him. A vast storehouse of wit. ancient and modem, was literally ex hausted for the occasion Even the di minntlve size of the New York mem ber was mentioned in terms of dispar agetneiit.
