Enclosed | send you two leaves, one of II
grape vine, the other of a locust tree. You
will see that the rust, or blast, or mould
(whatever il may Beg has attacked the trees

plt is nearly six years since Mr.. Fill
more went out of office, and the country is
now learning through the veracious organs
of democracy that his administration was the
most extravagant we have ever had. With
GU: hunting up the statistics, we believe the
annual expenditures during his tenure of Of
fice-ncluding large legacies of debt inher-
tied from the preceding (democra,ic) adhlh.
istraton-amounted to about forty millions.
Since his retirement there has been
regular increase of ten millions per
annum until The government expenditures
have reached the enormous sum of ninety
three millions Of dollars; and it is not unfair
nor wide Of the mark to sny that this enor-
nous increase has not been demanded or used
for legitimate purposes, but that two thirds
Of 1t has gone to reward partisnns for party
services and to perpetuate party rule which
is plunging the country deeper in debt and
difficulties every day. The peope-not the
office.holders and the stipendlares of party
the masses who are suffering under the
reverscs which misrule has brought upon
them, are beginning to talk about such reck.
less disregard of the public interests, and the
response from the democratic organsis, that our
pecuniary embarrassments, complicated for
eign Tela,ions,ntestine broils, and festerlngcor
rup.ions in every department of the govern
ment at Washington, are all 'chargeable TO
Fillmore's administration" There were
doubtless abuses in The government under
MIR. Fillmore, but TO charge the results of
the acts Of poor Pierce to him, or to hold his
administration responsible for the reckless
and wasteful extravaganza which history will
render tho prominent feature of the present
one, requresa perfection in effrontery which
no one but the devil or locofoco editor
could attain to. The people, however, will
hardly b. deceived by such transparent men.

TESTING THE LUSGs.-A contemporary who
thinks he knows something, thus tells how
to test the strength of tho lungs:
Persons DESTROYS Of ascertaining the true
state Of :heir lungs, are directed TO draw in
MS much breath as they conveniently cam;
they are then to count as far as they are able,
in slow and audible voice, without drawing
in more breath. The number of seconds
they can continue counting must be carefully
observed. In consumption the time does not
exceed ten, and frequently less than six Sec
onds; in pleurisy and Pneumonia it ranges
from nine to fourteen seconds. When the
lungs are in n sound condition, the time will
range as high us Fl ON twenty to twenty 4fve
seconds.

County REvENUE.-In most of the States
there nre laws requiring the officers through
whose hands the County Revenues pass, to
publish, in one paper of their respective
counties, yearly statement of the receipts

this State! The people who pay the taxes
have the right TO see, item by item, how the
revenue thus raised is employed and disposed

tB- That rascally "secular" press, the

II closes an article on "Ihe Religious Press"
with the following paragraph
son the whole, it may be questioned whe-
ther any one can derive any good at all by
the perusal Of such sheets rs these. II may
be said boldly-the contents of religious
newspapers consist of two parts, that which
is silly and that which is wicked; and very
many of their articles combine the two quail
ties. What good they may do the cause of
Christ and true religion It were very hard to
say, many old clergymen have been used to
say that they considered them decided in.
jury to the Church. Why, under such cir
cuInstances, they should prosper, may well
be inquired.
