Five hundred and forty millions OF
dollars were collected last year from
the people, for the support of the gem
eral Government. The business inter-
ests of the country, mechanical, man
ufacturing and commercial, groan be-
meath the weight of taxation imposed
upon them.
How is this immense sum of money
expended? An examination of the ap-
preparations Of The Rump Congress at
Washington. will disclose the fact, that
the white labor Of the country is hoav-
lily taxed for the SUPPORT of lazy, veg
abond negroes. Thaddeus Stevens Las
lust reported a bill from the Committee
on Appropriations 'for the use Of the
Bureau for Refugees and Freedmen"
which contains the following items:
salaries of Assistant ard Sub-Assistart
Commissioners $47,jC0: salaries Of
Clerks S92.700; stationery and print
ing $50, GOO; quarters and fuel SI5,SC0;
clothing for distribution SI,750,CC0;
commissary stores $4, ,106, ,250; medical
department $jOO,0O0; transportation
81, $500, 90; and SO on, to the amount of
eleren DaHLtoa2, fire hlg1dred and eighty
i5,a housaad, Jour hV1odred and Gtty
dollars.
This oppression of the white men OF
the country for the benefit Of the ne
groes, who, according to the report Of
Gen. GRANT refuse TO work, because
the agents Of the Freedmen's Bureau
have assured them they shall have the
lands of the South, will continue so
long as the Rump controls Congress-
1t is this policy which John w. Geary
indorses. Remember this, and vote

A BEAUTIFUL FIGURE.-Whata a
beautiful figure of life is the following:

Happy indeed are they whom our
Heavenly Father gathers unto himself

shall open you first, when you shall
bloom brighter and give out stronger

the rose fretted by the worm, wilted
by the sun, faded and withering. The
maiden wept over her folly, and the
next morning gathered her wreath ear

AN UNEARTHLY STORY.

Y very Wierd story Is current in the
Hill country of Staffordshire. Wehave
been unable to verify the narrative
with anything like precision, and con-
tent ourselves with relating it as near
as possible rs it was told to us by a
clergyman. One day last week q car
rier, with his horse and cart, was ta-
king the accustomed journey between
Buxton and MaccIesfeld. After he
had gone some distance he was accost-
ed by a wayfaring man, who was plod-
ding along the road, who asked for a
lift. The carrier took the man up and
then proceeded onwards. After a
while the carrier complained that his
hands were cold, and asked his COM
paniOn to drive for him for a time.
The man consented and took hold OF
the reins. Before they had gone much
farther. a stranger on hOrseback-the
horse, by the way, was a white one
overlook them, and rode by theside of
the cart. 4 conversation was COM
menced, which very soon took the di-
rectionof the cdttle-plague. Its deyas-
tating effects were discussed, and par
aliel was drawn between it and other
calamities, past and future. The stran-
ger on horseback suddenly became pro-
phetic, saying that next year there
would be a plague or blight among the
corn which would destroy the fruits of
the earth, which wonld be followed the
next year by aplagueamong mankind.
"Christians," he said, ''Would lie
dead on the roadside by hundreds
''yes, >" he added, lowering his voice,
and addressing the holder Of the reins,
"dead is the man Whosi sitting by your
side!" The driver turned, and to his
horror found that he was sitting by the
side of corpse. The stranger on horse
back gaIloped away, and the temporary
driver of the cart was left to pursue his
journey with his melancholy burden.

THE HUMAN FIGURE.-The proper
tions Of the human figure are strictly
mathematical. The whole figure is six
times the length Of the foot. Wheth-
er the form be slender or plump, the
rule holds good; any deviation from it
IS departure from the highest beauty
of proportion. Greeks made all their
statues according to this rule. The
face from the highest point on the fore
head where the hair begins to the chin,
is one-tenth Of the whole stature. The
hand from the wrist to the middle fin
ger IS the same. From the top of the
cleSt to the highest point in the fore
head isa seventh. Ii the length of the
face, from the roots Of the hair to the
chin, be divided into three equal parts,
the first division determines the place
where the eyebrows meet, and the Sec
ond the place of the nostrils. The
height from the feet to the top of the
head is the same as the distance from
he extremity Of the fingers when the
arms are extended.

A NEGRoIST. who once had acted with
the Democratic party, as it was said for
patronage sake, the other day tried to
Justify his change of sentiment to q

shame for any decent man to have any,
