To THE FRIENDS OF THE ARGUS We are
infor med that the plaintiff in suit recently
tried in our circuit court, who employed
Sweeney & jackson to attend TO tho case.
wanted to publish the advertisement in the
ARGUS, and so directed Sweeney Il jackson,
but was told, in reply, that they never pub
lished any advertisements In the ARGUS, and
that they would attend to It's publication in
the Union. These facts arc related tn us by
the plaintiff In the case, and we believe them
We therefore advise all persons who despise
such low-lived trickery and meaaness, to
avoid Sweeney d jackson and employ law
yers who will pay some respect to the wish
es of their clients, and who will not descend
to such petty tricks TO deprive democratic
paper of patronage and put money into the
pockets Of their radical niger organ. When
q person employs lawyer, that person has a
right to direct the lawyer as to what shall be
done. The lawyer is the servant. the EN-
ployee, and, were we the employer, our di
| rections would be followed or we should lis
miss the lawyers very quick, and employ
those who would obey orders.
We advise all people who have n contempt
| for such meanness and trickery Sweeney
& Jackson practice to deprive democratic
newspaper of patronage, to avoid them on all
occasions. If you have any law business, go
to men who will obey your directions, and
who are above such little, petty. political
spite. There are plenty of good, honorable
| lawyers in town, who are vastly superior to
Sweeney & Jackson, and whose charges are
much more reasonable, and who would not
| stoop 20 low as to attempt to thwart the
wishes of client for the purpose of depriv-
ing democratic newspaper of an advertise
| ulent. dwtf.

TIE TAXES THEY PAY.-Messrs. Clephane.
Robbins and Crossman, the compliments in
the suit against the Corporation to restrain the
payment of the expenses of the special election
recently held in this city, set forth in their bill
that they "are and have been citizens and tax
payers of Washington, and that they have an
interest in any expenditures on account of said
city From this one would naturally infer
that the expense OF the recent election would
fall very heavily upon these compliments,
owing TO the immense amount of taxation to
which they are subject. But figures will not
lie, and therefore we give below the amount of
taxes paid by each of the above-named, as ap-
pears from the books in the Office OF the Collec-
tor of Washington city:
Lewis Clephane pays $40 on realty and &c
on personally, making in all the enormous
sum of s11.47. J. II. Crossman pays s22-55 on
realty and none on personally. Il. u. Robbins
pays Sl2 on personal and none on real. Total
amount paid by the three compliments, s46.O2.

The WALLACE MEMORIAL CoNCERT.-Thls
concert from which so much was expected,
took place at the Academy of Music 18th of De-
cember.' There was a large and highly intel
lectual audience present representing the old
est and most influential families in the city.
The concert was excellent in every respect. 1t
was gotten up under the auspices of the most
distinguished musicians, piano makers, and
music dealers of New York. After devoting a
half page in praise of the concert, the Ne0
Fork Tribune, of December 18th, says:
''The reputation of the two panists, Mr..
Richard Hoffman and Mr.. S. b. Mills, is too
high and too well known TO need any further
comment than to say, that they played as fine
~ as usual. The appearance of a Chickering
and Steinway Grand upon the stage excited
much attention. They were played upon by
performers of equal excellence, but the COM
parison was in some respects untavorable to
the Steinway piano, the tone of which, though
powerful and in some respects beautiful, lacks
very much In refinement, and when forced is
quite overpOwereds and becomes wiry and
harsh. The grand quality, is exquisite in re-
fnement and sentiment and will bear enforce
ment without breaking the tone. There are
grand points in the Steinway piano. but lacking
those we have mentioned, they do not fully
meet the needs of a concert player.

Some folks love good eating
Roast duck and oyster pie;
Others are fond of drinking,
Swi lager or old rye.
Some are fond of gambling,
And are sure to lose their pelf;
Others are fond of dancing,
And all are fond Of self.
Some people are religious
Some patroniZe the play,
Some love to promenade the street
And strive TO look quite gay.
Some folks love the darkies,
Some love them not q jot;
But who are right or who or wrong
really have forgot.
But all gents love the ladies,
And we tell ysu, one and all,
If you would court their favor
Buy your clothes at SMITHS OAK HALL.
