Like an Old Roman.

The ideal type of senatorial dignity and calm, so long imputed to the old senators of Rome, is thoroughly embodied in .Senator Faulkner, of West Virginia. He 'Lever lounges about the Senate with his hands plunged deep into trousers pockets, as iKjgnorant of unappreciative of the dignity of hia surroundings, but preserves an exceedingly impressive gravity of demeanor. He never rises to his feet as if violently propelled by a hidden spring, but does so easily and with perfect tranquillity. His voice is distinct and never used as a means of hurling abuse at the head of a fellow senator. Every movement is accomplished with majestic grace, and never are his arms set going in the heat of debate or controversy like the fans of a windmill, as sometimes occurs with more excitable people. His features are purely classical, and even the fashion of his hair is strictly in accord with the Roman type.—Kate Field’s Washington.
