The Union IN Pursuit. Of Pap.


contemporary says great efforts are being
made to defeat the Union as a candidate be-
fore the Senate for the public printing. We
would like 10 know whom the Union Is trying
to defeat Has not the Sentinel, Democratic
paper, the Senate printing nowg The Union
must be making an effort to Gust the Sentinel,
and we presume the Sentinel is making an Of
fort to retain the Senate printing; then il
seems to us that the Union is the aggressor.
Another contemporary states that the Union de-
clined the Democratic nomination for printer
Of the House We are rather inclined to the
belief that one who is as hungry as the Union,
and who would make serious effort to de.
feat a Democratic contemporary, would not de-
cline nomination, no matter how slim the
chances of success were. The Union is the Of.
fetal organ, and is selected by the administers
ton as one Of the papers in this city in which
all government advertisements are published,
which we suppose from the Dragging Of anoth-
or sheet, is more profitable than the printing
Of either House Of Congress; yet it is making
an effort to chisel the Sentinel, q Democratic
paper, out Of the Senate printing. We are
poor boys from the country, " and mean to stand
by and see this fight; but we do not intend
that either shall get any American votes, if we
can help it. Of course we cannot interfere
with the prospects Of either, for we would as
soon expect to receive Observation-Disclosures as we
would to obtain justice from aSag NIGHT squire,
who has grown fat on mutton soup. Now,
amt 1t funny to hear that great effort is being
made to defeat the Union in the Senate, when
the Union is making aprod igious effort, amounts
ing almost to q dramatic feat to GUST the Sen
tinel and the small fry, who are fed on the
oozings from the departmental stop-cock, have
raised terrible howl, because the Sentinel,
the peculiar organ Of the Virginia Democracy,
will not give way for dear" Forney.
We thought this great Democratic light was
concealed under . bushel, but we fear our ami
able sealer Of weights and measures has failed
to exercise due vigilance, and there is a leak
somewhere, from which drop occasionally
falls, which has served to identify the peculiar
nature and genus of the animal, and which
will so surely lead to his detection and arrest,
that he has become frightened, and has doter-
mined to make bold push for the crib in an
other direction Mark our words, the Sentinelis
after him with very sharp stick, and the crea-
ture, not having any character to lose, will
doubtless seek an ambuscade, but, being al
ready over-fed and broken-winded, he will be
caught and gibbeted So hurrah, boys, the
ring is open, admission free, and the fastest
nag win win.
