READ AND REFLECT.

We closed our article last week with n
comparison between the expenditure Of foar
years of Democratic rule, and four yeaI IS Of
opposition or Wing rule, in which We de-
mostrated beyond the possibility ola doubt,
that the Democracy had expended during
its four years SszS2s,367 more than that
OF the opposition, and an annual acreage
increase of s2l ,957 ,O92 above the annual
expenditures Of that Administration, which
Mr.. Buchanan had said had spent the enor

the peoples money, and who deserved 10

that our country is twice as large, but have
