fcUNBURY, MARCH 13, 174..
The Postal Uill. Tlie 1ill urmnied
in Contm-ss by IIou. J. I. Packer, of the
Tost Ollice anl Postal Road Committee,
to restore the franking privilece, as well aa
the free exchange of uewB.aper and their
free circulitiou w ill.in the county of publi
cation, was defeated ou two divisions in
the House of Representatives last week ;
the first by only two majority aud the
second by seven majority. 1 1 will no doubt
be brought up in another form in a short
time and the chances are that it will pass.
Mr. Packer's speech, published in our last
issue, is decidedly the best aud most ex
haustive exjiose of the workings of the Post
Office Department that has been delivered
in Congress, and has had the oftrut of
changing the views of many who were op
posed to the measure. Mr, Packer's bill
is to restore the franking privilege in a
rcodi.led form, nnd the principal opposition
comes friu lii'we who favor a tvstoialion
of an unrestricted franking privilege as it
existed previous to its repeal in the Con
gress of last year. Among the advocates
fur restoration is Ron Rutler, and nearly
all Southern members who represent dis
tricts where but few news)aH rs circulate,
and their constituents want to be supplied
with documents of tut little use, with few
exceptions, except to till up their libraries.
And as tltre memU rs have not Tery abun
daut means, they favor any measure that
avoids the payment of postage. It look
now as though there were enough mem
bers representing enlightened districts,
who feci that the free circulation of news
papers is by far the best medium for public
information, who will f.iwr Mr. Packer's
bill. The most enlightened statesmen of
the past entertained the same views now
urged by Mr. Packer in regard to tin
free interchange of newspapers between
publishers, by an act of Congress eighty
three years ago to provide for such a regu
lation, which no one can dispute has ha.d
the effect of the r.v id progress of knowl
edge and the Improvements of the nx-chatu-crtl
and industrial departments In thic
country, and has been one of the surest
safeguards of our free institutions, and of a
froc government.
The subject of compensation for the ad
vertising of the new Constitution, has Intel
been agitated by our Wislutorsas well as by
several publishers, the first no doubt know
ing nothing about the printing business, the
second but very little. The laek of expe
rience in the latter has become a source of
regret, and their chagrin isexpressed in an
assumed vittue which they neither msm.-8s
nor feel. They certainly do not know the
difference between general and legal, or lo
cal advertising rates, and when they pre
sent their bills, falling far short of the mark,
they drop into the arms f virtue, a a!r of
arms they perhaps never sar before, and
express a feeling of indignation at the high
prices of othe rs, while the only fault is their
own ignorance of rate9, and the disappoint
ment they f-el in consequence. We print
ed the new Constitution by order of the Se
cretary of the Commonwealth, and charged
for tho work at the same rate that we
chargu for leal advertising generally,
which we believe is just, as we must take
into consideration the room it occupied in
the place of other paying advertising.
Those who are now agitating the question
of cutting down the lates to one-third the
present charges, might, with the same pro
priety, set the prices for all manufactured
articles, and regulate the profits a iner-
hant is to receive on his goods. The fact
:s that the prices of printing are already
cut dowu too low in a business which re
quires a renewal of cstly material every
lew years, and that, certain individuals
ought to know, and would kuow were they
practical men in the art ; aud if legilators.
who are entirety ignorant in regard to the
matter, fix the prices of printing, there will
be but little margin left for a livelihood
among those who have learned the "art
preservative," and who necessarily follow
it as a means to procure an honest living.
So one would prosper much ou prices fixed
according to their knowledge of the matter.
A large majority of the bills presented in
this case are just and right, a few are ex
orbitant, and some arc entirely too low.
which we attribute more to ignorance thau
to avarice, as there are so many in the bu
siness who have no knowledge whatever of
the art who never set a line of type
in their lives, and who are entirely unfitted
and unable to count up the costs or the
profits. If a maximum compensation were
fixed at the average price of the majority
of rates charged, we have no doubt the bills
rruuld be speedily mailed. And as it is
a difficult matter to settle upon a plan un
less, it is done by paying the bills as pre
sented the exorbitant, tho tw low, and
those which are fair and just, we U-lieve
that publishers woJd readily agree to such
maximum price iu order to effect a sjreeily
settlement of their claims.
V.'e Served a full apprenticeship at
the business, and have followed it for
twenty-six years iu every capacity con
nected therewith, and under every variety
of difficult circumstauce. and we know
that our charge, with some others ar
right according to published rates ; they
are proportionately less than was tin
charge in lrjS for puhlishiug the amend
ments t the old Constitution. If the price
in this case is ti be regulated by legislators
who are ignorant in the matter, and pub
lishers who are dissatisfied, more from dis
appointment than any virtuous feeling,
then we may as well forgive the debt and
receipt the bill.
THE ladies of Williarasporl are pushing
ou their columns of attack against the
forces of King Alcohol with a vigor and
determination that would do credit to vet
crn". The Gazette and li nllitin of Mon
day had some Seven columus fi led with
Saturday's and Sunday's proceedings.
"The new temperance crusade,'' it says,
"shows no siiins of diminishing on the
contrary, the spark Ins kindled into a
rnigli'y flame, and that tlame appears to
lie increasing in volume, enveloping the
city and arout-iiig passive men and women
to action.' And indeed this would seem
to be the case. The old crusaders who
started out to redeem the holy land from
the infidel were not, apparently, tilled with
more fiery zeal than the women of that
local option town. Al! day Saturday, and
ns late as eight or nine o'clock Saturday
uight, tliey labored in the cause, and con
tinued their work on the Sabbath. Verily,
tuch zeal should not go without reward.
The prospect of the Senate at Washing
ton taking aclioo on the finance question
nootv is becoming discouraging. Instead
of preparing to vote. Senators are prepar
ing new speeches and brushing up old ones.
These gentlemen forget that business is
"Uuguishin, trade is unsettled, and the
inances f the country are unsettled, while
they are indolglng in Ulk. It is time that
S-uators should do nxcttuiug ; the coun
try is tired of this txr"U;al drizzle of

Oru County Pimsox. The IWrd of
Commissioners of Public Charities in their
Annual Report to the Legislature, contains
the following in regard to the jail of this
couuty, which was visited by the board, in
August last, in pursjauce of their duties.
The rejx.i t is anything but flattering to the
people and authorities of this county. The
The report shows that in some of the coun
ties where they have prisons adapted for
the purpose, many of the prisoners earn
more than the cost of keeping them, besides
the security afforded against escape. A
new and properly constructed prison in tin's
couuty is not only necessary, but desirable
as a matter of economy aud saviug to the.
tax payers :
North uxBEBLAND Coux rv Prison.
August (i, 1873. This old prison remains
without improvements or repairs, and if
possible is in a still worse state of dilapida
tion. Escapes are frequent, six haviag
been made during the last seveu months ;
a case-knife being sufficient, as I was in
formed by a leading cuiacii, to open a way
of escajte through almost any part of the. jj
decayed structure. i
Six cells or apartments are provided for j;
I he confinement of prisoners, but these
are merely us-d as sleeping apartments ;
association being ierinited everywhere in
the ill arranged building itself, aud also in
the yard connected with it. An effort at;
separation or classification in this so-calkd 3
prison would be futile. Consequently nono j

general appearance and condition worn.
The present sheriff, who has been in office
but a short lime, complains uot only of tlte
insecurity of the building aud. outside en
closure, but of the impossibility of keeping
it in proper order. Il is totally without
conveniences. Water has to be carried by
hand. Ventilation is neglected. The
floors, the walk. tb )edding. all liear testi
mony of the neglect into which this foul
receptacle Las been permitted to fall. The
sanitary condition of a place thus decayed
and, neglected, having from ten to twenty
inmates, must of nectssity be bad. The
records of the institution will uo doubt show
that to have lieen the case. Evidence of
it presented themselves to my observation
at the time of the inspection. The prison
is warmed by stoves. The beds are of
straw in soiled and filthy licking. Iron
bedsteads are used. Iu some case the
door is used for the forbidden upholstery,
called a led.
The prisoners are boarded by the sheriff
at 51 cents per day. The usual prison fate
is provided.
At the date of my visit it contained 15
prisoners 13 males and 2 females only
three of whom had been tried. One was
convicted of murder, but having contracted
pulmonary disease, the execution of the
sentence has been Mwtponed. He is in the
last stage of that fatal malady. One man.
charged with having .-.ken a horse, was
acquitted on the ground of insanity, but is
still confined. The facts, as alleged, go to
show that be was suffering uuder mental
disorder when the offence, was committed.
I was unable to learn the precise coBt for
1872, but it must have been from $1,500 to
$5,000. Thirty-three convicts were main
tained at the Eastern Penitentiary in 1872.
at a cost, with transjMirtalioii expenses, of
$2,171 95.
The sooner the old structure falls to the
ground the belter ; and when it is replaced
by another, may we not hope it will lie so
constructed as to be adapted to the Penn
sylvania system of prison decipline ?

Meeting of the Stockholders of
the Nothekn Central Railway.
The annual meeting of the stockholders of
the Northern Central Railway Company
was held at Raltimore on Thursday, the
20th ult., and was largely attended.
After the meeting was called to order,
the President of the Northern Central, Mr.
J. Donald Cameron, read the annual re
port, which document set forth the total
earnings of the corporation of the past year
at 5,031,305, and gave the total expenses
for the same eriod as $3,447,511, making
the net earnings for the past year, $1,583,
851, an increase over 1872 in clear profits
of $472X82. The earnings, clear of all
expenses, were applied as follows :

increase of 9ti.52 tons, and the Shamokin
division (Ji,74( tons increase.
The report states that owing to the re
sults of the operations of the road for the
year 1872, the Pennsylvania Company
would not make sueh an oiler to lease as
was deemed acceptable. It was In lieved
the business of the year just ended would
result moo; favorably, but the time had
expired so recently, that they had not been
able to take action in the matter. The
concluding paragraph is as follows :
"Your board, still inclining to ihe belief
that your interests can be last subserved
by a lease of the pro rty. if made ujxm
a just and equitable basis, ask you to ad
journ this meeting for a reasonable tin e."'
At the conclusion of the reading of the
reports, Mr. A. L. Snowden offered a reso
lution that the election of directors be ad
j turned to a meeting to be held ou Thurs
day, April . 1874.
After considerable debate. Ibis resolu
tion was unanimously adopted. In the
meantime experts, appointed on behalf of
the Pennsylvania Kailroad, will examine
the Northern Central Raiiroad thoroughly,
and the question of leasing the road will
then be acted ou.
The receipts of the post Office Depart
meut for stamps, &c. for February
amount to $1 ,032,507.17. U ingan increase
of $255.51 4.W over February, 1873. The
iucrease ver the corresponding month of
last year is 10 per cent., or nearly 10 per
cent, more than the auuual increase here
tofore. This tho officers attribute, and
justly, no doubt, to the abolition of the
franking privilege. Those who favor the
franking privilege without restrictions, as
heretofore, and urge that its abolition has
been no saving to the government,' will
fiud themselves mistaken. They had bet
ter accept Mr. Packer's bill, which con
cedes quite as much as a prudential and
just policy would dictate. It is worse thrtn
folly to restore the old law with all its de
fects, when a law with proper restrictions,
such as Mr. Packer's bill contemplates,
can just as well be enacted.

Death of Ex President Fillmore.
Ex-Presideut Fillimore died at his resi
dence in Buffalo, New York, on Sunday,
the 8th iust., in the 74th year of his age.
The deceased, the thirteenth President of
the United States, was born at Summer
Hid, Cayugn county, N. V., Jan. 7, 1800.
At an early aje he was sent to Living
ston county to learn the clothiers' trade,
and aln.ut four months later he was ap
prenticed to a woo' -carder in the town in
which his father lived. During the four
years that he worked ut his trade he did
what he could to supply the defects of his
early education. At the age of ID he com
menced the study of law, and devoted a
portion of his time to leaching school. In
1821 he removed to Erie county, and pur
sued his legal studies in Buffalo. Two
years later he commenced practice in Au
rora. In 1827 he was admitted as an at
torney, in ISiSI as a counselor in the Su
preme Court, and in 1830 he removed to
Buffalo. Here he associated himself with
Nathan K. Hall, afterward United States
Post master General.
He was a member of the. Assembly in
l29-32. a member of Congress in 1833-5
and in 1337-41, and took a prominent pari
in the business of the House. He distin
guished himself in the New York Legisla
ture by bis advocacy of the act to abolish
imprisonment for debt. In Congress he
supported the internal improvement and
protection tariff policy of the Whig party.
He supported Mr. Adams in the struggle
upon the question of the reception of peti
tions for the abolition of slavery ; he op
posed the annexation of Texas with slav
ery, favored the abolition of the slave trade
lietween the States, and of slavery in the
District of Columbia. As chairman of the
Committee f Ways and Means in the
Twenty-seventh Congress, Mr. Fillmore
waB the author of the tariff of 1842.
He then resumed his profession in Buf
falo, and in 1848 be was nominated and
elected Vice President ..f the United States
by the Whigs, and remained in that posi
tion until the death of President Taylor
in 1850. by which he was elevated to the
Presidential chair.. Dunns his Presideney
the compromise measures, embracing sub
stantially the provisions of Mr. Clay's bill,
were passed He was also tin: candidate
of the American party for President in
185G, but was defeated. He then retired
from public life, and up to the time of his
death resided in Buffalo.
The Crvsade in Ohio. The Weekly
Adcanrr. a religious newspaper published
in Chicago, holds this language on the
woman's movement : " The temperance
movement iu Ohio, which has spread so
rapidly and carried terror into the ranks of
King Alcohol, in our opinion is a fanatical
movement that must at no distant eriod
react nron the temperance reformation.
The gathering of ladies around a saloon
singing and praying looks like sacred non
sense. We have no doubt that in the be
ginning these meetinsrs were conducted
in a respectable manner, but from reports
that now reach us it is assuming the ap
js'arance of fanaticism. The praying, sing
ing, weeping, and exhorting mixed in wild
confusion, looks more like some heathen
ceremony in the dark ages thau the solemn
worship of the Deity. It is not safe to
make use of the physical forces of religion
to knock out the bungs of whisky barrels.
It is only a step from the sublime to the
ridiculous, and certainly these ladies have,
or are rapidly reaching the latter point."
The women of Ohio have this, however, in
their favor the license law. and of course
the sale of liquor is wholly prohibited in
that Stale.
Ex-President Baez. since his arrival
in this country, has been harshly treated,
having beeu twice arretted by citizens of
New York for acts committed against them
in San Ifcimingo. Ou one of the charges
be was imprisoned, having refused to give
bail, but has now been discharged fiom all
these proceedings. The ex-President is
described as a low set, thin and sail w
faced Spaniard, with a highly nervous
manner, betrayed in almost all his actions.
He is able to ieak but little English, and
that very imperfectly. He has been at
Washington for some time, no doubt look

back iuto the presidency agaiu, from which

through the country districts, swindling
fanners with dry goods samples, and it
will therefore be well to keep a look-out for
them. Their game is to go from house to
house exhibiting samples of cotton goods,
etc. These they propose lo sell for about
one-quarter of their real value, and of
course take a large uuruber of orders there
for, wilh the promise to deliver the goods
soon. Then they exhibit a lot of cloths
and cassimeres, almost worthless, which
they sell for big prices, delivering the goods
on tl e spot, and receiving the cash there
for. Of course the cotton goods are never
forthcoming, while the swindlers have dis
apjieared with the money they received for
the worthless cloths. Mahanoy City Ga

A question concerning the authority to
appoint the foreman of a grand jury came
up recently before the judges of the courts
of Clinton county. The majority of the
judges decided that the grand jury has the
authority to appoint its own foreman.
Judge William Dunn. Associate Judge of
the courts of the county, gave an opinion
lhat the Slier itl alone has the power of
making this appointment. In bis opinion
he presented a sketch of the history and
organization of tho English courts from
1 he time of the Saxon conquest iu England.
Iu the first county courts the she rill', to
gevher with a bishop and an alderman,
presided. After no- i ig the variouschanges
that ensued by the organization of new
courts and the distribution of judicial au
thority, he concludes with the remark that
when its present authority became vested
in the court called the County Court,
the sheriff's duties liefore court prevented
his presiding on the grand jury, and con
sequently he appointed a foreman.
The Supreme Court of the United States
has decided that .1 national bank, organ
ized under the act of 1804. cannot acquire
a valid lien upon the shares of its stock
holders by virtue of the articles of associa

general interest and importance.

It is a rare thing that physicians give
any countenance to a medicine, the manu

THE TENEMENT HOUSES
,e million of people who
1 1
One half of the
make up this great Babel live in what are

called tenement houses. ou. oh dweller

twelve rooins, in the centre of a pretty piece
of ground, with llowers. fruits and sueh
things almut it, where a child may be born
anil grow up with decent, healthful sur
roundings. That is not what oOO.OOO peo
ple in this city know as a house. To them
it house means a vast building, four or five
stories high, divided into small rooms, the
rooins ten feet square, the bed rooms clo
sets. Light, the cheapest of all things, is
in these places a luxury, and ventilation is
impossible. Often twen'y. thirty, and forty
f unities arc crowded into a single building,
and instances have been known where as
many as lod apartments have been crowded
together under one roof, each of I hem in
habited by a family of from three to five
persons. Huddled together in these com
munities of crime and filth, a large part of
tho City's population live and die here,
without ever having known thu true signi
ficance of the word, "home."
The extent to which the overcrowdinc
s'.stcmof tenement housi s is carried in
New York, exceeds thai of any other Chris
tian city in the world. A comparative ex
hibit of the.
POPULATION TO T1IE SQl'AKK AC HE,

AND WHAT IS MOKE.
Very frequently there is 110 pretence of
separating families by thiu partition walls
Men find themselves unable to pay the rent
of a w hole room, and so two or more fauii
li s are huddled into a single room, the par
tition being a mark on the floor. And in
these places children are born - famili. s
sleep together, male and female. Is it any
wonder that the jailsand prisons are crowd
ed ? Is it any wonder that to keep com
mon order au army of policemen is re
tpiircd ?
THK OTHER EXTREME.
And while 500,000 people thus herd to
gether like cattle, living on the refuse of
ihe markets, and thankful if they get even
that, it is a sharp commentary on our
boasted civilization to read in a "society"
paper that Mrs. Win. B. Astor, at a recent
hall, wore diamouls to the amount of one
million dollars, and laces lo the amount of
one hundred thousand more. The husband
of this woman is worth not less than SOO,
000.000. a large share of his property being
in these very tenement houses I have Ireeii
describing. He has never given a dollar
in charity he never repairs a house, or
ever heeds a call for air, light or cleanliness
from the miserable wretches who inhabit
them. The orly interest he ever takes in
these people ia to see that they pay their rent
every month in advance, and to see exactly
how much money in the shape of rent can
be screwed out of them. His father, the
original Astor, John Jacob, was not quite
so bad as his son. The old man died worth
$30,000,000. Iu his last illness he woke
up one morning and asked of his secretary :
"Mr. has Mis. Wilson paid her
month's rent V"
"1 believe not." said the Secretary.
"Il is $12. You will see to it at once.
She is sick, and if you pul it off she may
not pay it." t
Twice or three times a day would this
wretched i11 man ask if that $12 had been
paid, until, to quiet him, the Secretary
look $12 from his pocket and gave it to him,
saying that she paid it.
"That's right - that's right," chuckled
the old miser, as his fingers closed on Ihe
money ; "and now, Mr. , turn her out.
She is sick and won't lit able to pay. Gel
Ihe three days' she owes, if you can ; if not.
we had better lose it than to let il grow."
Like sire, like son. Win. B. is even
more greedy and grasping thau his father.
I should hale to take his monev wilh his
disposition. If the Astors meet their ten
ants iu the next world there will be a lively
time. But there is another side to New
York life. There ar
GENEROCS MEN.
For instance, young James Gordon
Bennett gave $30,000 to be used up iu
S'up this winter. Of course, those who
don't like Bennett say that he does it as
an advertisement, but the hungry wretches
who are saved from starvation by his gift
won't care a straw what he diss it for.
Tliey will pray, us I do, that more meu
would try this "advertising ddge." Tl e 1
the Howard Committee fitted up the base
ment of a building in Howard street, where
everbody can be fed without money and
without price. They serve a substautal
supcr of good soup, bread and coffee.
Tnis costs, at the wholesale prices, three
and one-half cents for each man. Break
fast is about the same, vari.-d occasionally
with Is of, fish, pork and beans, or some
thing of the kin 1. Last month, 9.108 fed
at this place.
1h; applicants are a superior set of men.
They are mostly mechanics. Of 30 names
recorded, the United States was represent
ed by 11 ; In land by 7 ; Germany by 7 .
Knglaud by 4 ; Scotland aud Frauce by 1
each. Three were clerks, three machinists,
and three laborers. The oiheis were en
gineers, book agents, lireuieu on steamers,
carjieuters, &c, &.
FEMININE INTEMPERANCE.
Intemperance is by no means confined
to ihe men of New York. Indeed the vice
is wide-spread, and is not limited by sex
The wives and daughters of the "best
families" are addicted to the maddenin
bowl, and are as much the slaves f appe
tite as their father and brothers. They
get it first by the use of wiue in the social
circle then the exhaustion resulting from
late hours, and excitement calls for stimu
lants as a sustainer. And once fasttutd
there is nn end. Such habits grow on wo-
t .neii faster than on men, and are morecer
1 tain to stay. Thousands of fashionable
leaders iu society have iu their rooms the
j brandy-bottle, every day requiring more
aud more to satisfy the cravings of an al
! choholized sxslein. Does it uot show?
Not at first, or indeed for a long time. Tne
art of the enanieler hides those ugly red
blotches. Bui finally it gets beyond the
euameler's art-the lady in a debauch
makes an exhibition of herself the secrel
is out, aud with uo restraint she devotes
herself entirely to it jnd goes dowu to the
pit. It is time that a reform was inaugur
ated iu the bmies of the wealthy. There
is but little use of talking reform or tem
per nice so 'oiu as wine is set liefore every
giu si by the lady of the house, and stronger
drinks by the head lh reof.
THE LAST SWINDLE
which the authorities are after, is the clum
siest jet unearthed, but as clumsy as it is
thousands upon thousands have bitten at
il and ccn bitten by it. "The Geneva
Watch Co." with "J. Wright & Co., 009
Broadway" as agents, have flooded the
' c..u...ry with adveriiseu.ent,.,flering to sent
. i 11 ........ 1.... r..- i,;t- ..r it xl f

The metal of which its watches are said U

' :u .1. B.i.i 1 .t I. m ti, fin tin wmile

I far better than the genuine article. The
! circular states that this wonderful coin
i position was "invented by Thomas
T.
Efendolph. one of ihe largest stockholders
iu the Geneva Wattdi Co."
Mr. Efendolph, who is a wonderful al
chemist, worked for years endeavoring to
make a discovery lhat would take ihe place
of gold, anil stand ihe tests of acids, aud
alwavs retain its brilliancy, aud wear the
same as virgin gold itself. In May. 1S7T,
his years of laborious toil were rewarded
by the discover) of this material, which
even expert jewellers cannot delect. Of
coutse watches so cheap and so good were
in demand, and J. Wright & Co. received
a shower of letters coutaiuing SI each,
which was pocketed.
There is one way to stop this swindling.
The laws which govern the administration
of the listolice,prohibit the delivery of let
ters to fictitious addresses "where fraud is
intended. If the lirst victim would, with
a contrite heart, inform the Postmaster of
New York, ail the rest would be saved, for
every letter would be returned to the send
er. As high as 10,000 letters t swindlers
are received at this office every mouth, none
of them containing less than SI. 00.
THE POLITICAL POT
is boiling. Even at this early day the De
mocracy are marshalling their forces and
getting ready for the next election. This
"getting ready" means the distribution of
the spoils, the Killing of the lame ducks and
arranging tha labor of the sound tines.
For be it known there is no gratitude
among thes-e men. The lenders of Tam
many pay down for their labor. If a man
has inlluetice he cau get of them just what
that intlueiice is worth if he uses it with
out getting his pay, it is his fault. No
in itter what he has done in the past-no
mailer how useful he was last year un
less he has control of something and some
body this year, he is killed and carted out.
I know one striker who has afforded
me considerable instruction as well as
amusement. Last year ho held a clerkship
iu the Court House, a sinecure in the City
Hall, and something or othei in another
department, giving him an income of about
$7,000 per annum. This Spring he was
ousted rrom all these. "Why ?" I asked.
"Well, you see," he answered, "I had fifty
of the boys that made their headquarters at
a saloon which my brother-in-law run.
Well, this Spring, Jim, that's my brother-in-law.
knocked one of the boys on the head
with a bottle, and was arrested, and the
place was broken up. and he escaped Sing
Sing by the skin of his teeth and had to go
West. Another man took the place and
gobbled the hoys, and of course I was jer
mitted to git. He holds all these places.
But I ain't going to lay still, no sir. I've
got a man to go in with mc, and I'm going
to start right across the street, and l'il have
'em all back, and then they can't help them-r-clvefl.
I'll have my places ibis fall, sure. "
No one seems to think of making head
against Tammany-cverybody seeks to con
ciliate it. My friend will get hi place.
The moment, he gets control of fifty voles,
he is certain of it, for that fifty, by skillfu -repeating,
means two hundred and lil'ty on
election day.
This is a Republican f.rm or government
I believe.

well tiny are indefinably s'nshy and
