The in ass ol the Republican party will look with favor on tbe nomination of ex President Grant for tbe 1'reti dVoev in 1830. The people who are not asking for appointment to office are tbe people who most favor Grant. The Jennens, and Jennings, and Jenny people all claim to originate from one head in England, and now claim a large estate that belonged to their English forefather. They have brought suit in England for the re covery of the estate. The fortune is estimated at three hundred million dollar The Communist invests his sur plus earnings in w beer and whisky," or stakes it on games, on prize fights, or Lorae races, and so forth, and is not a tax-payer.

Which party do you belong to T Cheating Claims. Tbe Democracy bare a sleek way of coming before tbe country, and claim ing a great saving of money in tbe management of affair at Washington. Tbev claim all that is saved by a re daction of operations that bad grown op through tbe Rebellion, wbicb claim is nothing bat a cheat. Tbey claim a credit for a redaction of appropriations, when tbe troth is, tbere bas simply been a postponement of payment, which re duced tbe immediate use of money, but tbat is a cbeat also, wbicb is really calculated to deceive. It is about like tbis: If a man owed one hundred dol lars, to be paid to-morrow, should bave the payment postponed till next year, and then tell bis friends, and everybody else, tbat bis liabilities bad been less ened, and therefore be claims favor able consideration at tbe hands of bis friends for good management. It .-e-tninds us of a case or two in this J n nisla in which certain men got their friends at a distanoe to bay certain val uable articles for tbem, and send them here, and then report tbat they were presents sent to them from distant friends. It vas done to manufacture an opinion in the miud of the public tbat tbey were popular. Such cheats are supremely contemptible ; but sucb is tbe cbeat of tbe great Democratic party on the question of appropriation, on which they claim a credit of saving, on the public buildings in various parts of the country. Tbey claim the sum of $3,286,583, which in fact is only a postponement. Again, tbey claim a saving of $1,611,000, to pay judg ments of the Court of Claims, which is in fact only a postponement of pay ment, A long list of similar claims j could be mide out, which are only j postponements, but these several mil i lion serve to illustrate wbat a cheating ' claim of credits they are setting up. The .WA .Imerican says: The fraud at the Crow Creek Indian Agency could not easily have been , greater. The steal was as complete as possible. The government has been sending oat supplies to this and the Cheyenne Agency for 330 more Indians than there were at the agen cies, and all this time it has been sim ply filling the prx-ket of the agent, Dr. Livingston. In all the tales of rascality in dealing with the Indians there is none more remarkable than I this. The supplies, instead of going i to the Indians, went directly to Dr. Livingston, who 6old them to the best advantage for himself, giving the Indians just as little as he possi bly coiil. 1, and by means of false vouchers and claims for property 6tolcn, getting the full value of the little that he gave to those for whom it was intended. We shall never hear the end of these stories of robbery until the Indian Bureau is turned over to the War Department. It would be impossible for a course of stealing to continue for eight years under the administration of a soldier without detection, and we shall never have any lasting peace with the In dians until they feel that they are to deal directly with the army. According to the Philadelphia Times a sensation was created a few Sun days ago, by an enterprising soap dealer and patent medicine vender having a large number of fans dis tributed by the innocent sexton among the congregation of a fash ionable church about the time they were settling down to their devotion. Gradually the truth flashed across the mind of the congregation that the dealer had come into the church on Sunday to advertise his soap and bitters, the advertisement of which was printed in large letters on each fan. The enterprise spoiled the whole service, for it put preacher and congregation in a fretful frame of mind over the indignity that had been put on them. The question has been raised whether the flock sinned by becoming an&ry at the enterprising soap and bitters man, and if they did, whether he is not to a certain degree responsible for the sin of the provo cation, j Kissing is a time-honored practice, and perhaps will never go out of fashion ; but they got too fond of it in the Wisconsin Asylum for the Deaf and Dumb, where the men and women teachers indulged in it till a great in vestigation has grown out of the habit If the men had indulged sim ply in the court practice of kissing the hands of the women, there would have been no investigation, but there was nothing courtly about it ; it was genuine kissing, lip to lip service. Enol.utd is wild with joy over the achievements of the first minister of the kingdom, at the Congress at Ber lin. The Hebrew, Lord Beaconfield, certainly did well for the English throne, and the English people. Russia has been checked in her on ward course, and Turkey has been robbed, without England as much as filing a gun.

Eighth. They have attempted the reduction of the tariff, that American labor might be reduced to competi tion with the half-paid labor -of for eign countries. Ninth. They have refused encour agement to commerce, through which our surplus productions might find a profitable foreign market. Tenth. They have embarrassed and retarded the public business by tin wise reductions of the clerical force in the Departments. Eleventh.
