RETRENO amENT OF EXPEN
SFS: '
Quite a number of the leading Admin
istration ptipeis.ofihe country have, of
late, been giving some sound, but un
necessary, advice to their readers, rela
tive 'to the necessity of retrenching their
expenses. - If these timely admonitions
were addressed to the President of the
United States, and the hundreds of thou
lands of office-holders and contractors
under him, it would be just the thing; Lut
sending them out promiscuously among
the people generally, shows a heartless
ness witch should not be pardoned in
this world nor in the world to come. Im
agine a big, corpulent, Abolition editor,
who has just fobbed a hundred thousand
dollars as his share of a shoddy contract,
telling his readers to be prudent and
economical when they are in absolute
want of the thinest necessaries of life.
Let these suggestions be addressed to
Mr. Luvoottif a`nd his household, asking
him to begin the reformation required;
there is no - necessity for sending them
to the multitude, for luxuries ate be
yond their reach.
It *all the New York Evening Post,
eve . one of whose editors holds
a 'lucrative office under the Administra
tion, which first began this retrenchment
agitation. It was followed by the Tines,
another paper, whose editor basks in the
suriShineynf, official favor. Does any one
believe that these opulent and swelling
Abolitionists, gorged with the sweetest
morsels Their purveyers can select 1)1
them, have any idea of retrenching their
expensedY Why, one-half of these peo
ple who now roll by us in equipages'
which would mortgages common man's
estate, never knew luxury beyond brown
bread and cheese-parings, before the
wdr broke out. Now they are dressed
in purple and fine linen and fare sump
inott4 every day. They never had as
fine a time, and theji i are bound to make
the most of it. Well let them fatten on
thie distresSeS of the people ; but baring
sucked the very life blood of the million,
let them lie up and digest it, and not
insult the multitude, by asking them to
.refrain from luxuries and enjoyments far
some little pity for the people's poverty
and not insult their angu sh.
OPPOSING GOVERNMENT .
We were under the impression that the
most stolid Abolitionist had abandoned
the absurdity of confounding the gov
ernment of the United States with a
stupid and criminal administration of
its executive department, buf we were
mistaken. And, because the opposition
to the conduct of the Administration
take,occasion.to point out its follies and
its crimes, we . are asked such silly and
unmenuing questions as these, from
feitetiday's' ecirArneial ofthis city

Wr are for keeping right ahead, but
three years of lamentable failure
,have
demonstrated that those in power are
unable for the crisis by which they are
surrounded. And — yet, notwithstanding
our sacrifices, the party in power has
.the audacity to ask for a re-election.
But for fear that our objections to the
continuance in power of ABRAHAM LrN

prompted by partizan considerations, we
