LOOKING GLooMY.-SeverAl of the
prominent office seekers about town have un-
nance within a day or two. As they see their
chances for fat offices and fat pickings gliding
from beneath their iset they very naturally
come to tho conclusion that this world is all
fleetng show. The Democrats. who have
nothing to expect. lay back ard enjoy the dis
somhture Of their opponents hugely. Verify,
blessed are they who expect nothing. for they
shall not be disappointed.

YESTERDAY, in noticing the active interest
taken by the friends Of Mr.. Scripps. of the
Chicago Tribune, in getting him good office
without troubling hirn on the subject, we said
I'VE know some other editor that ought to
be served up in the same way We wrote it
-"soms other editors" Making it in the sin.
gle case seemed TO border on egotism, as it
seemed to indicate our friends ought to serve
ne that way. On the contrary we agree with
them in thinking NO such thing !-Gazctte.
Hold on little there, if you please. We
are not much on the betting order, bat We
don mind wagering new hat with the edi-
tor of the Gazette that he is using his best
endeavors to get the Post Office in this city.
Will you take the bet or mott If it is not 90,
you can very easily 80 make it appear, and
take one of Farrand's best.
