The humbug of the federal raptures over their
recent "hlgh tariff" demonstration Ia this State
seems to be pretty thoroughly understood. Thsir
journals begin to be shy oflhe question. The lead
log article in the December number Of the "Dsmo-
cratic Review" is able and conclusive to the point
Mr.. Webster's rhetorical flourish about the DEM
ocrats who went in "mssses and troops for the Wing
candidates" is hdy exposed and chastissd; though
with scarcely as much severity the srea, orators
hSbitual reckessness ofassertion deserves.
Talking Of "guns"-the appearance thus prompt
ly Of the December number Of the Democratic
Review disproves tho rumor circulated ON the
strength of too literal Interpretation Of promise
in the last number, that Silas Wright would be
elected governor before the publication Of the next
number. ..,,.,.-.. ,..,

not the only, cause Of the diaster to the Atlantic
was the bursting of her steam-chest soon after she

To bear the pressure of all the steam generated by
the boiler, before it is distributed TO the cylinders
and ought to be Of such strength that bursting or
breaking is cut Of the question. Once il gives way,

A writer in the "Boston Courier" furnishes a
striking commentary on the editorial "ruin" twad-
&c, in careful and elaborate article, in which he
estimates the increase in ralue on the agricultural
produce Of the United States since September 1,
1886, as follows
"on the crop Of Indian corn ESTIMATED at 4So,-
1000 bushes) the advance ESTIMATED at 25 cents
per bushe) is Sl20 100000; on the crop OF wheat
the advance is estimated at s56,000,000; on the
crop OF oats, $4,000 000 rye, $50 900 900, on the
crop of hay the advance lin Consequence Of the in
creased use OF corn and other grains for breadstus)
Is estimated at s45000000. Showing a total rise
in value Of s273, 900 900" ..'i'
Surely this is manifest fuflment Of the pro-

The PeriPatehe young gentlemen connected with
the cheap literature Of the day, (vuigary called news
boys,) electrified all down town this afternoon by
their cries of "Yere's tn Evenin' Mirror, got the
Presidents messge" The many who eagerly in
vested the necessary sum of "two cents" in the
purchase of"the Presidents msss'ge!' were proba-

WHATS in a name :" Frederick Bremen was
yesterday "policed" for receiving stolen cotton
stockings Such a proclamation ofthe illustrious
sylables! Surely (as an indignant reporter well rs
marks she must have stolen the name as well as the
hose. Nobody who owned such name could
have been guilty of stealing cotton stockipgs-no-
body.
Things improve in Maine at every new. trial
proving that our frierds have only to arouse to
carry the State. The House now stands even by
federal reports GO democrats, 50 federalsts, abo-

fraternize admirably. -@t"S Y.
