/
plc. Kentucky has never been corrupted
by the control or direction of Republi.
cans.- It has been and is the refuge and
asylum of those, who, like the Rev. Pe
troleum )t Nasby, are compelled to
leave other localities for righteousnosa
sake. I will, therefore, present the con
dition of.financioring in this State as it
was recently stated by the Republican
candidate, General J. M. Utirlam, for
Governor : '
" 'The Republican party charge the
Democratic party with squandering the
public money of the State of Kentucky.
I desire to say something to,you about
the State debt. It is a question you aro
all interested in. I make this statement,'
and my friend will not dispute it. You
pay over a million dollars annually for
the supportof the State governmerit.
The sheriffs collectit, - and it is paid into
the State treasury. Since 1867 the
Democratic party has boon in power.
They have collected this vast sinn of
money annually, and spent it each year,
and to.dayllicre is not a dollar in the
treasury. Not a dollar. They have not
only collected a million of dollars an
nually, but $650,000 from the school
fund, and spent that, and at the last
session of the Legislature they pass * ad..,
act authorizing the Governor to borrow
$500,000 more out of the sinking fudd to
defray the ordinary expenses Aof the
General Assembly. They have collected.
over $4,000,000, and spent every dollar
of it;. borrowed $600,000 more, add
authorized the boriowing of an addi
tional $500,000: • I ask my competitor,
what have you done with that money?
flow have you appropriated it?
" If this exposition fails to please, I
- de - tire to present one more example on
this subject.
"The city of Louisville has always
been in the hands of the'Lemocra:cy, and
their management of the city finances is
so ably stated by that careful, able, and
reliable gentleman, Edgar - Needham,
in a speech recently made in that
city, that hdeem it best to present a
proportion of his facts. Ile says : •

"Observe, fellow-citizens, how beauti
fully progressive these figures are. They
become 'small by degrees , and beauti
fully less,' only the smallueSs and less
'less is at the wrong end ; but that doesn't
trouble our Democratic speakers a
particle, for they hate quite as much as
they can do to atteutl to the aff,urs of the
National Government.
"ITho State tax for the city of Louis
ville and the county of Jefferson has also
increased to about the same ratio. In
1860 the State tax wa5"5123,069.49 ; in
1869 it had increased to $251,730.66, and
in 1870, to $388,268.70.
"The amount of tax per capita has
also largely increased. In 1860 the
amount of tax (city and State) in LOuis
villo was $8 59-108 for each inhabitant,
but in 1870 the amount had increased to
over $l7.
"Thera are in Louisville about one
hundred and twenty-six classes and kinds
of business which must pay a license tax
ranging from $lO to $5OO each.
" Just as soon as Cleilgress Ida off a
portion of the license taxes, the city put
them all on adain, but a good deal heavi
er."
In view of the foregoing facts, which
will not be contested, ,let the people go
forward and dhoose, not those whom they
will serve, but those by whom they will
be served.

LATEST JOKES ON PRINTERS
There is no funnier reading in the
world than some of the printer's blunders
that go the rounds of the papers. Here
are-a few that a laugh or two may he
found in :
In the office of a New York newspaper
there stood in typo the repiirt of a
sermon and a paragraph about the career
of a mad dog. In "making up" these
two got mixed, and the readers of the
paper next day were astonished by the
following melange : "The Rev. James
Thompson preached to a large audience
last Sunday. This was his last-sermon
previous to embarking for Europe. He
exhorted his bretheren and sisters, and
after delivering a devout prayer, took a
whim to cut some frantic freaks. Ile
ran up Smith street to Brown, and down
Car to College. At this stage of the
proceedings; some boye Mond him, tied
a tea-kettle to his tail, and let hird go. •
A. great crowd gathered, -and for a few
minutes there was a lively scene."
The Londcin Homo Journal once, in
describing a wedding- in Oigh life, said'
that the bride was accompanied to the
altar by tight bridesmaids. The lovely
ladies wore eight not tight.
A Providence paper once announced,
that Rev. Dr. Wayland, President, of
Brown :University, "gave a
party." The editor • wrote a brii/lant
party.
The importance of careful punctuation
cannot be insisted on' too urgently.

it : " Minted, a young man to tako care

ABOUT A -PICNIC.
JENNINS RELATES nrs EXPERIENCE
• Maria Ann had recently determined
to gO to a picnic.
Maria Ann is my wife—unfortunately.
She had planned it to go it alone, so far
as I was concerned, on that picnic occa
sion ; but when rheardTifit - I determined
to assist. She pretended to bo very
glad; and I believe she was. "It will
do you good to get away from your work
one day, poor fellow," she said, " and
we shall so much enjoy the cool morning
ride in the cars, and dinner in the
woods."
On that memorial day Maria Aim got
up at five o'clock. About three minutes
later she disturbed my slumbers and told
me to come to breakfast. I told herl
wasn't hungry, but it didn't make a bit
of difference,'l had to get up. The sun
was' up ; I had no idea the sun began
business so early in the morning, but
there he was.
• "Now," said ➢lrvin Ann, "we must
fly around, for the ears start at half-past
six. Eat all the breakfast yon can, for
yob. won't get anything more before
noon."
I could' not eat anything at that time
in the mornina- and it was just as well I
could not, for I had all I could do.
There was the ice to belp4uled to go
around the pail of ice, ream, and the
sandwiches to be cut, and I thought I
never should get the legs of the chicken
11W ite_that_l. could_ get the cover on the
big basket, Maria Ann flew around and
piled up the groceries for, me to pack,
and gave directions to the girl about
taking carod - if the house, and putting on
a new dress. all at 'once. There was a
great deal •of energy in that • woman,
perhaps a' little too much. •
At twenty minutes past six I stood on
the front steps with a basket on one
arm and Maria Ann's watexprooton the
other, and a pail it) ea , -1. ' - and and ..r)
bottle of vinegar in in:y xt_!Poci,:et.
There was a chair hung me some
where, too, but I forget how

Maria drove me all de wa;rto' the depot
on a brisk trot,.and we gOt.'oil the oars,
but neither of us could get a, seat, and I
could not find any place tp-set the things
down; so I stood there anchlield
"Maria" said I, "how' ; iiii.this4or,a
cool morning ride?" ,
Said she, "you Oio a brute, 7eliaina. l
Said I, 'my love; you liave.made that
remark before.'
I kept my courage up; but, I knew
there would be an houi. of wrath at
home. While we were getting out of
the cars thC bottle in my pocket got
broke, and consequently I had one boot
full of vinegar all day. That kept the
pretty quiet, and Maria Ann rah off
with a big whiskered music teacher, and
idtafr fan, and got her feet wet, and
tore her`dress,.and enjoyed herself much
after the fashion of pien'ic goers. I .
thought it never would come dinner
time, and Maria called me a Pig because
I wanted to open our basket before 'Cho
rest of the baskets.were open. •
At last dinner time camm—Alic nice

three thousand little red, ants had got
into our dinno.n, and they were worse to
pick out than fish belies. Tke ice cream
had melted, and there kwas no vinegar,
for the cold meat, except what was iu my
boot, and of course that was of no im
medialo use. The music teacher spilled
a cup of coffee on Maria's head, and
pulled all tier frizzles off trying to wipe
oil the coffee with her handkerchief.
Then I sat on a piece of raspberry pie,
and spoiled my white pants, and con
cluded I didn't want anything more. I
had to stand up against a tree the' res
of the afternoon. This afforded consid
erablikarioty, compared to every day
life; but there wore so many little draw
back's that I did not otijoy it so much as
I might have clone. •

A SHORT PLAIN SToltS
A lady tefused to be introduced to a
gentleman last evening at,Congress
and no amount of urging could induce
he• to change her mind.
" What 'are your reasons for not ,want•
ing an introduction ?" urged a friend. '
" Because hp wears a paper collar and
dyes his moustache," replied the lady;
"and I never knew a thorough gentle-
Man to do either."
The lavas very near the truth. A
dyed moustache is a foul thing—as feul
as a cigar in the mouth of a Vemis ; and
a paper collaris an evasion of the laundry
as culpable ; as the lady's . who chose
colored crockery because it would not
bow dirt.
About dyeing the hair black, I will
also say a word. Light hair makes the
eyes look brilliant by contrast. So, by
and-by, when the eyes becomes dimmed
by-age, God paints the hair white, and
the dimness of the eye is •unperceived.
Look at a man or woman with dyed hair I
The eye is as dead as that of a sleeping
ox. And still these silly people think
they aft: iTheelving suniebutll—bhipltomi,
they are making themselvOillook younger
when in fact everybody with a
s particlo
of sense discounts their foolish attempt
at deception. Powdering the hair gives
theeyenn-unnatural brilliancy, hence it
is frequently resorts 'lli courteirelea
in Europe. But as a general thing,
young gentlemen and old I don't try to
improve on diviiiity. God knows best
what to do, and when die silvers, your
hair with white or paints your moustache
with auburn, He has a purpose as grand
as Himself.. Here is something I hoard.
Mr. Steward say once (you know the 45x-.
-Premier is the homeliest man, except
General Sherman, in America)-,Well,
old 'homely handsome Secretary Seward
said : "The cleanest man is the most
comely to look upon ; so bathe well, oat
Well, and love well, and some how or
other, the' homeliest will be beautiful."
NoW it 'has struck me a thousand
times that Mr. Seward,, who looks
ways so neat and sweet, is really a hand
bomo man ! The cleanest man is the
est man—l menu morally and physi;
cally too I How many young ladies--;
and now I beg their pardon for saying
it—look beautiful at a distance, but
when you'come close to them thay, have
a soiled look. The hide will look greasy.
Now there is no more excuse f2r
ting grease on your hair than there. is
for putting it on your hands. You peo
ple I say Npo grease your hair, :unjust
.as barbarous as' the Cahmuche
who ^ g,reases his face. A gentleman will
never fall in love with a soiled weina.n.
She must be sweet. Have you never,
in so-called polite society, met a young.
lady whose face would have been itu
proved.„,by A, good square washing,?
Now; this is plain, homely talk. Earor
peal' . Court circles do inore bathing,,tou i .
to one, than the bourgeois. Indeed, in
Russia—in Moscow, whore you see the
sweetest blonde woman in the world—
they have Thar, bath houses, 'each,. as
large as the Fifth Avenue Hotel. ,Qnco
daily, every man and woman of ,patriaam
blood plunges all over, head and,,nll,.unt
dot' pure, sparkling, rejuvenating water,
This makes the hair light colored, giyes
it a fleecy, airy appearance, ;and gives
to the- homeliest,,sol,aotlAng,of the an-,
gelic. .
I beg pardon for this plain ,talk.
