M1scuIEFIN THE WIND.

When the Bank of United States was buying
up presses and men .like cattle in the markell
the country was filled with charges OF usurpa-
ton against Gen. Jackson and of stocklobblng
and corruption against his particular friends.
When the Pipelayers were making arrange,
ments to carry the elections in New York and
elsewhere in 1880 and 40 by fraud and per-
jury, as now fully proved, their organs were fill
ed with charges Of similar practices against their
political opponents. =,
Now, the Courier and Enquirer Of New York,
one of the old Bank stipendiaries and the Pipe
Layers Organ, charges certain members Of Con,
gress with receiving 100000 each contributed
bv British Merchants to rote for the repeal OF the
Bankrupt Lac!
Depend upon it, funds are raised or being rails
ed to prevent repeal There IS no surer sign
thant the charges put ahoat by the Courier and
Enquirer. And the press which raises the cry
of corruption is probably the first to profit by the
bankrupt f,nd-Ib.

dies manufactured from Castor Oil, and were

The experiment resulted in the demonstration
that the castor oil, lasted longer than the sperm
candle, and the light of the former was decided
ly more brilliant and extensive than that of the
latter We could not discover the least un-
pleasant smell arising from burning the castor
