Here is total of more than twenty-five thousand dollars expended in the canvass all of it the voluntary offering of the people, to secure the choiceof such president as they desire to see elected The aggregate is much more likely to exceed this estimate than to fall below it-as it does not include the money raised by exactons from office holders, or con tributed in large sums by candidates, to be used for purposes less legitimate, but more costly, than those We have enumerated. Much of it goes into the hands of working men-prnters laborers and others who fairly earn it. But immense amounts go to fill the pockets of po- litical gamblers and swindlers, who look upon the presidential elections as the harvest of their profession- Nea1 Fork Timee

Cost of the Political Contest.

Few people ever think of the expense in cash of Presidential contest. Yet it is some- thing really enormous The vast machinery necessary to carry on such canvass---the num- Der of organizations it requres--the amount of printing, of writing, of postage and of labor of every kind which is brought into service, is far beyond any estimate usually formed. Let us state few facts, which may aid in forming an opinion:
 There are about 800 counties, and not far from $500 towns in the 31 States composing the Union. Every town has one political club of each party-and many towns have many more. There were undoubtedly during the last canvass over 15,OOO organized clubs be- longing to each of the political parties within the United States the number of Fremont clubs may have been 5000 less, since the re- publican organization did not extend into the slave States.
 Each of these clubs were in active operation for at least three months. Each of them re- qured rooms, printing, postage more or less travelling of their officers and committees-and these, with other incidental expenses, could not have amounted, on the average, to less than $lOO month, or $500 for the canvass. The labors performed by their secretaries, presidents and committees would certainly amount to the "eooiy seTViCe Ol at leaSl three men, eaCn WOrln not less than $10O each for the whole three months. Not less than 1000 persons have been actively engaged, for nearly the whole of the canvass, in making speeches and public ad- dresSes-traveGng from place to place, and al- ways at an expense which must be met by somebody--and entitled, of course, to have their own services estimated at fair price probably $500 dollars each, including their ex penses would not be low estimate.
 Then on election day there are opened in the United States not less than 5O,OOO polls at which each party stations not less than five men, besides the inspectors, policemen and other legal officers, who average perhaps five more, making ten in al whose services are worth at least two dollars each
 Let us sum up the aggregate of these items: Incidental expenses of 10000, clubs
 at $500 each, S12,OOOOOO Services of three men each, for
 three months, at $1OO, 100000 One thousand speakers, 3 months
 at $500, 5OOOOO Officers, challengers, etc., at the
 polls 100000

are now about Sc pupils and still increasing
and it is very creditsble to see how easily
every class is attended to- the quiet ana
good order which prevail, and the happy
manner in which the teachers control The
mind and train it to study. Each pupil APP

Here is taught all the branches, from com

To those at distance, Philadelphia IS
village of sober, quiet and industrious habits;

calculated to draw off the young into wild
extravaganza.
Boarding can be had in private houses at
very fair prices. Room will be made Tor al,
