PUT THEM oUTl PUT THEM oUT.-There are
number of gentlemen connected with the N.
Y Post Office. Custom House, &C., who, in
the hope of being conlinuedin office if Gen.
Taylor should be elected. are laboring Jealous
ly as Barnburners, &C., to procure defeat for
the Democratic party.
We call on the President TO put these men
out! Let US have no traitors in the camp! Let
us have no men about us pretending to wor-
ship Democratic principles while they are la
boring day and night to aid the common enc
my in the destruction of.those principles.
We say put them outt tits false magnan-
unity TO extend the favor of Office to men SO
reckless of honesty and honor. II is foolish
to maintain in place and power men who con-
stantly use the influence of both, only TO
embarass the administration, disappearing
views and pervert the wholesome objects of lis
solicitude. Put them ouf!-Pkil. SPIT. of the
Times.
Ifall the Taylor should be put out, re-
marks the n. Y. Mirror, ii would be no easy
matter TO find suitable persons to put into their
places. The some paper that now demands
that all the Taylor men shall be put out, will
of course be the first to cry persecution,
when the time shall come for putting out the
put-outers.

rests in their ability TO cheat and deceive the
people, and the Wings resolved last night that
from that time until the 7thof November, and
forever after that, they would qcork-that they
would know no rest while there remained a
particle of labor TO be performed-that they
would meet the people and with them, reason
with them, watch with them and triumph witt
them. The spiFil of 1910 broke out and blazet

They tell a story that one day Rabbi Ju-

that il was tohave attained sufficient wealth,
yet without sin. The second, thalit was

il was the possession of power to rule the
state. The fourth, that it consisted only of
happy home The fifth, that il must only
be in The old age of one rich, powerful, fa-
uous, surrounded by children and children's
children. The sixth said that all were vain

of tie brothers, said-sYe have spoken wise

THE NEWSPAPER ENTERPRISE OF n. yoRK-

we share the payment Of these bills with sever

Besides these efforts, five of us now keep in tn,

in quest of news, and reports inward bount
