THE actual cost of "a quart of soup in
New York is only cents; of 4 pound
of bread ~ cents; of plate of hash
2yl cents; and OF plate of beer or NUT
ton cents. Yet, even at second class
restaurants, these articles are sold, re-
spectively, at 10, 20, 25, and % to 80
cents. The New Yord Post calls atten-
tion TO these facts, and says that men
of capital can make money by building
and fitting up good boarding houses
where people can live in comfort at
"one-half the price charged in the most
squalid inn or the vilest restaurant in
the city," Considerable attention is
being given to the subject of cheaper
and more com Portable living In the
large cities. The Post says;
Several hotels in this city conducted
on what is known as the European
plan, furnish practical illustration of
the problem of cheap living. In these
immense houses, each having from one
hundred and seventy to two hundred
and fifty chambers, lodging is furnish
ed at prices varying from thirty to
sixty cents day, and from two to four
dollars week. The fact that the own
ers of these establishments almost in
variably amass wealth, often in II COM
paratively short time, shows the large
margin left for profit at these moderate
charges. II may safely be estimated
that these houses, crowded as they are,
and doing an exclusively cash business,
produce a return of from thirty to forty
per cent upon the original outlay, de-
ducting the customary allowance for
wear and tear. 1t is fair to conclude
that at much lower charge to its occu-
pants lodging-house, properly con-
Quoted, would yield to any person or
corporation who might undertake its
erection and management a reasonable
return for money invested and expenses
incurred.

SWEETS FROM a DEMOCRATIC JOUR-
NAL.-The New York Day Book, the
expositor of the Democratic Gospel ac-
cording to Vallandigham, has the fol-
lowing choice flowers of rhetoric in its
last issue:
"a Washington dispatch says: Gen
eral Grant declares that he holds moth
ing in common with the Democratic
party The Lord grant that IL may be
SO, for Democracy OF late has had
heresies and denominations enough to
carry without shouldering those of
Grant.
EVERY one of its (the Republican
party leaders, from Lincoln down to
the tail end oil its official existence, de-
served CrucitiNion thousand times
over for its one impious, fathomless
and unpronouncable crime OF 'emHn-
cipation' or attempted amalgamation
with negroes; but to murder half IL
million OF men, and TO rob and. plunder
The people as they have done, In addi-
'tion,f makes "A tout ensemble of crime
thar will absolutely require new lam
guage to properly express IT,"
-1 rs Washington City new system of
running cars has been introduced
Only one horse cars are run, and they
have no conductors. They are twelve
feet six inches long, seven feet ak inch
es wide, seven feet i've inches in height
finside), and are calculated for sixteen
nasseuRers each, eight on a side. These
cars are said to weigh about three thou
sand pounds each. There Is no rear
platform, but in it's place low step, on
which people get in and out. The front
platform is exclusively for the driver,
being semi circular in form, and fenced
in 60 prevent passengers from getting
on.

''Yot'rR GONE OVER Ir"-One Sunday
morning an old gentleman was going to

Organs in the churches have become very
fashionable of late. In almost every church
you go into you will find one of these instru.
ments. A friend of ours, who lives in
neighboring village, related to US yesterday,
an amusing incident which occurred in their
church.
He said, to be in fashion, they must have
an organ. The congregation could not afford
to pay an organist, so they got self acting
organ, compact instrument well suited TO
the purpose, and constructed to play forty
tunes.
The sexton had instructions how to set It
going, and how to stop it; but unfortunately
he forgot the latter part of his business; and
after singing the first four verses of hymn
before the organ could not be stopped, and
continued playing two verses more; then just
as the clergyman completed the words flet
US pray, the organ again clicked and started
another tuEe.
The sexton and others continued their ex-
ertions to find the spring, but no one could
put stop to it, SO they got four of the stout
est men in the church to shoulder the perverse
instrument, and they carried it down the aisle
of the church, playing away, into the church
yard, where it continued clicking and playing
away until the whole forty tunes were finish
