They occupy themselves in these times of trials,
partly in embarrassing the Government to which

dirty and unpatriotic business last night, making
an insolent demand for the removal Of Collector
Barney, ON account of his retention of Demo

party hounds with utter contempt and make it

OIL their places with deserving patriots from
