Here is the very table from which MIR. Van
Ness quoted why did he not Use it fairly aud
honestly lfhe would conGne himself merely to
permanent and ordinary expenses, why did he
not say that this item amounted under Mr. Van
Buren, in 1899 to Sl3, 1926 800 IT, and in 1928 THE
last yenr OF J, @. Adams,) TO only $7,76o,394 sc?
Or ii he must compare estimates, why did he lalse-
Iy call them wing estimates, and why did he mol
fairly compare them with The whole expenditures
of 1899, instead OF part only The result OF
fair comparison would be thus:
Aggregate expenses in 1899, $37, % 396 80

timate, Si5000,0O 90
Balance agai ,st the ndninislra-
ton over its own estimate, so 100 306 So
But lime will 10, permit us to go into detail: we
only ask the reader to compare either 1897 1888,
or 1889, (Mr. Van BureAs administration with
| 1929, Qhe first year of Gen. Juckson,) or 1923,
the last yenr OF John q. Adams. Take il in eve
ny column look at it in every point; set down
the figures, and work out the sum- The ans,cer
will always be, that Mr. Van Buren's expenses
are about double those of The 'exlravagancies' of
1898, and Whereabouts; and The process will show
to yonr perfect satisfaction, why the ex- governor
chose has method of defending the administration,
rather Than to give fair and honest exposition of
this document. All go "to what base uses has he

Meredith, and oihsrs.-The plaintiff in this was

PENDANTS the President the legal adviser, and
some OF the employees Of the Harlem Rail Road Co
The action was brought to recover mpens ation in
damages for procedure somewhat outrageous in its
character when the responsibility Of the plaintiff
is considered. The plaintiff is the owner, and
in some instances the occupier OF public houses
which are known as stage houses. At one oil
these places, Unity Hall, he in the habit of
taking, in the way Of business stage and rail road

Of Barber went to Unity Hall, and asked Grant, the
plaintiff barkeeper il he had any rail road tickets,
TO which Grant replied, eyes, a few" Taylor
said, the company had lost fifty dollars worth, and
wanted to trace them" Taylor bought one ticket of
Grant, and went away. In day or two after this, a
search warrant granted by Justice Wyman,
which kept perdue for fifteen days, and then this
Taylor, who is enploye officer by the company
went to the residence on the plaintiff and told him OF
the existence Of the warrant The plaintiff told HIM
he would 20 along with him and lend every facility
They went 20 Unity Hall aud there found seven tick

going TO Harlem, and did not use. The tickets were
taken possession Of and the parties all went TO the Of

plaintiff insisted on going 10 the police Justice Hop

Wyman had issued the warrant, the plaintiff had bet

Hopson refused To take any bail, and permitted the
plaintiff TO go home. Subsequently tn this, Justice
Wyman, as the sitting magistrate, held an examine
ton relative to the charge and decided that il had
better 60 before the Grand Jury, which sitting at
the time The day following, the parties went before
the Grand Jury, and the examination Of the clerk
Of the Rail Road Company, on the part of the prose
cution and without any other Witnesses, the Grand
Jury threw out the bill
The Plaintiffs Counsel having adduced testimony
TO prove the foregoing facts, rested his case.
On the part Of the defence, the general issue was
pleaded, and defendants set up that the plaintiff
should have sued the Company, and not the ind-
vduals then in court. That, by a bye-aw Of
the Company, no tickets were permitted to be sold
exec pt 10 persons going forthwith by the cars and
that all tickets which were exchanged or passed
for money or liquor, must be stolen property.
The Counsel for the Defendants moved for a nom
suit, and cited many eases, in which parties had
been nonsuited under similar circumstances Be
fore this question was decided, the Court rose and
adjourned.

SfE-I observe by the religious newspapers, that
there has been some great celebration lubi-

have been contributed among them, for the support

And promised to love, dearest maid,
And worship alone at your shrine.
Your love on my heart gently fell
As the dew on the flowers at eve,
Whose bosoms with gratitude swell,
A blessing to give and receivc;
And knew by the glow on your check,
And the rapturcs you could not control,
No power had language TO speak
The faith or content ofyour soul.
