MR.. WIsE'S PROBLEM.

1t is really amusing witness the squtrming Of the
present administration, to get rid of the infamy result
ing from the astounding disclosures of fraud in
the financial department Of the government. When
this subject was recently under discussion in Con-
gress. MI. Cambreleng uhe great rejected y insisted
that the poDers that be- ought not to be held respon
sibe, because, he averred, Mr. Swartwout, the abb
sconding leg-treasurer, Conservative; to this
Mr.. Wise replied that Mr. Swartwout had extended
his plundering over nine years. and during the eight
first was Loco Foco, and a Conservative only the
last. lie added that the case involved this curious
problem-if man who is Loco Foco eight years
and Conservative one, steals ONE MILLION AND
QUARTER OF DOLLARS, how much would he have stolen
had he been full-booded Loco Foco the whole time
Will Cotton, Jr., have the goodness to cyPHER OUT this
problem by the rule Of three? nj .74d III
How much would it cost the People of the State Of
Connecticut to pay all the late defalcatons The
State tax of one cent the dollar yields only about
$4,000 annually On this principle, it would require
tax of4l 20 cents on the dollar to raise one million
and quarter, the amount pockeied by the late Col.
lector Of the port OF NewYork If to this be added
the quarter Of million cABBAeED by Mr.. Price, (he
favorie orator Of Tammany Hall) the tax would then
be so cents the dollar exactly! If we pursue the

collect together the nnumerable robberes Of the pub
lie which within few years past have been commit
ted in all parts of the Union, the amount will be at
least three millions, which would require Of one
hundred cents the dollar or in other words THE
WHOLE GRAND LEVY WOULD BE SWALLOWED UP !! !
Yet in the face Of facts such these. there are men
in the midst of US who pretend that administration
so pure, upright vigant, economical and wse is still
entitled to the confidence Of the people Of Connect.
