The Democrat styles Mr.. Thompson
''onr efficient Auditor" In regard to his
efficiency" let facts decide: One day
last week gentleman went to the Treas
urer's Office to pay his taxes. but one lot
and improvements. in this place, worth
at least $500. and appraised. perhaps. at
half that amount. could not be found on
the duplicate. It had been overlooked by
the Auditor in copying from the duplicate
of the previous year. This mistake hav-
ing been recti6ed, the deputy Treasurer
made out the gentleman's tax receipt. On
looking over it to see whether ]. was oil
right. he noticed the tax on quarter Sec
ton Of bic land was less than half what il
was las, year, and remarked that the tax
on il was not near so much IS he had here
tofore paid. This caused the deputy to
examine into the matter. He discovered
that the Auditor had made . mistake in
copying of 81, 900 in tho valuation. In
stead of 81, 800 he had it $500. making q
difference of nearly $40 in the amount oil
the tax. The deputy doubtless felt annoy.
ed at the csrelessn Of "our eficien,
Auditor" from the way he looked. and
by way of excuse attempted to divert atten-
ton from his political friend by intimating
that former deputy Auditor was respon-
sible for the blunders. How many SINH.
lar blunders sour efficient Auditor" ha,
made in copying the duplicate, and how
much the County has lost thereby. will
never b. known until his place ia supplied
bY / CO lpetent man.

How Copperheads Care far Soldiers.


How Copperheads Care fnr Soldiers.
The Governor of the State of New York
is Copperhsad. He is also the man who
addressed the rioters in the city of New
York last summer, while they were white
with the ashes OF an orphan asylum. and
dripping with the blood of Colonel o.
Brien, as his "friends. The city of New
York is governed by Copperheads. 1t
has never been in any other hands. BY
ahe two authorities. city and State. pro-
vision ought to be made for the returning
veterans Of the army. Nobody else has
the right or the means to make such pro-
vision. Now see how they do it. and how
well soldiers, who come homo after two
years Of the most honorable and faithful
ssrsice, from the smoke of battle and the
pale horrors Of the hospital. are treated BY
these Copperhesd officials. A New York
paper says:
Several regiments of veteran volunteers
recently returned from the seat of war,
covered with honorable scars and bearing
their bsttle-stainei and battered colors
through our streets. Their arrival has
been duly acknowledged in the newspapers,
and their deeds have been recorded in prose
and verse by appreciative patriots; but
their reception has not been equal to their
merits. No preparations were made by
the State authorities to receive them. No
place had been provided for their shelter
No tables were spread for their entertain
ment No State official extended
to them . hand Of welcome. Had they
been foreigners Just landed at our wharves.
or other unheralded strangers, they could
not have been treated with moro indiffer-
ence By Gov. Seymour, and yet he knew
perfectly we'll that these brave men were
coming here. He had been notified oil
their intentions. The press announced the
fact that they were on their way. They
came here in the coolest weather we have
had this winter, tired and travel-worn, and
hungry, and the only quarters offered to
them were the bare boards Of the Park
Barracks, and even that dirty den. peopled
with vermin. was begrudged them by The
Copperhead Common Council. Why are
these men subjected to such shabby treat.
ment? Why have the State authorities
neglected to provide for their wants? Il
Gov. Seymour offended because they have
re-enlisted? Are they snubbed by him
because they have been fighting for Union
and liberty? Are the rights Of soldiers to
be ignored when they come home to aid ia
recruiting their wasted ranks? Is gross
neglecs and inhospitality to be the reward
given by the State to veterans in the SER
yice?
This treatment is of piece with oil
that the same class of men have done fol
soldiers everywhere. Our veterans maj
make their account to get no good viii
frsn any Of che race. and if they expec
nothing they viii not easily be disapPoint
elk. $50 81.
What contrast Is here preseated in 70
gard to the treatment of returned veterani
In this State and New York. This fec

authorities than is shown them when they
