Municipal Economy.

Let us look at the practical operations Of
democratic economy in the administration Of
our municipal affairs.
A carefully prepared Statement OF the re-
ceipts and expenditures of the city of Cum
berland, for the year ending June lst, 1858,
made by the democratic Council Immediately
preceding the present one, represents the en-
tire indebtedness Of the city, unprovided for,
at 1896 81; and it is alleged that in the ex-
penditures Of 1858 were included drafts to
the amount of $500, which properly belonged
to the indebtedness of the former Council
l1s57), which ran up the entire Indebtedness
of the Corporation at the beginning of the
Council year of 1858, to $4,520.87.
The former Council, by their representa-
tons, left the present council an indebted
ness Of &0oG.87, but what was the actual in
debtcdness left for the present Getty fathers
to liquidate ?-thc snug little sum of 3d.
1861 This will be made perfectly
plain by the following extract from the re-
port of special committee IA majority of
whom were democrats appointed by present
council,l and whose duty it was to ascertain
the condition of the city finances:
Drafts issued by former Coun
ellis. ............................ $3.33e.19

making, so far AS your committee have been
able to ascertain an Indebtedness of So
1858. Your committee are of the opinion
that the amount of outstanding debts not
ascertained, will not increase the above, but
to slight amount, if any. To meet these
liabilities. certain assets were left, from which
have been realized the following amounts:
From late Treasurer, S756.G0; from late col
lector. $S59.4O from rent Of markct-house,
$1,000; from Trustees of Mineral Bank,
S5s7.17. In all $2,233.17,"
Leaving balance due and unprovided
for, of $2,S72.1 10, instead of $96G.S7, as
represented. This is what we call economic
ing with a vengeance, and shows the vast
difference between Locofoco economy as pro-
fcssed and practced. A democratic council
said that the debt of the city, unprovideo
fer, at the commencement of the Council
year of 1858 WAS S966S7, whereas it has
been shown to have been, S2,S72.16. The
difference, therefore, between the Statement
and the reality, is only $1,915.29.
Every citizen of Cumberland should ex
anime well these figures before he exercises
the prerogative of franchise.

The War OF spain with Morocco.

The depredations of Moorish pirates upon
Spanish commerce, and the attack upon the
Spanish fortress of Ceuta, and the coast of
Morocco, furnish the aggrievance for which
Spain is about to make war upon Morocco
Offensive operation against Morocco were
appointed to- commence on the 7th or 9Th of
November, Tangers, Tetuan and Lawaske
having been previously declared in state of
blockade by the Spanish Government. All
the steam packets that ply between Marseilles,
France, had the Spanish ports had been char
tered to convey the Spanish forces to Moroc-
co. The war excites great enthusiasm in
Spain, and deserters from the army were re-
turning and beginning to be employed now that
there is chance for actual fighting.
The reason given by France for sustaining
Spain in this attack, is that her own commerce
has suffered since 1885, But another and
more important reason is attributed to Napo-
leon, and that is the overthrow of the power
of England in the Mediterranean by expelling
her from Gibraltar, Malta, and the Ionian Is.
lands. Supposing Napoleon to entertain these
designs, we have an explanation of the i'm,
mense naval preparations he is now making
which are not requisite in contest with any
of the continental powers. ....... .. .
