Aggregate increase In four years

Taxpayers look at and consider these
figures. Here, in period of profound
peace, we have an increase Of seven ham
dred and f1y-seUen thousand four hundred
aHd dtirfy-eight dollars in the contingent ex-
penses Of the House Of Representatives
alonel Ii is astounding, There can be
no excuse that any portion of this large
increase was caused for Reconstruction, =
or any other object rendered necessary by
the war. 1t has simply been wasted 10
gold pens, pen-knives, scissors, pomades
and other luxuries for the use Of the Radi-
cal members and their families. Yes,
under the eyes, and with the fall knowl4
edge and permission OF Schuyler Colfax;
Speaker Of thel House and candidate for
Vice President, this Wholesale system OF
plumber and robbery has gone on until the
expenses Of the House have become enor-
nous. These expenses for the fiscal year
ending the 30th Of June alone, amounted
to seven hundred and twenty-five thousand
five hundred and fifly-five dollars, or 1871 :
925 more in year Of peace than in 1864 q
year of war Shall these things continue
Shall this wholesale robbery go on from
year TO year uutil the public treasury is
depleted and the government bankrupt

RADICAL ECONOMY.

We have before us a statement of the
contingent expenses of the United States
Houee of Representatives for several
years past. During the war these expenses
increased to an alarming extent but the
Radicals justified this increase on the
ground that we were engaged in civil war,
and the people then thought 1t was all
right. But war has closed, and the guess
ton recurs, have these expenses been cur

shrcwd Tactics.

Tho Democrats every whore are
sharp in one particular, at least.--
In providing "documcnts' for the
people, hey attach primary i'm
portance to the circulation Of their
local newspapers. Almost all our
exchanges Of that persuasion are
boasting Of the increase of their
circulation by scores and hundreds
We are glad to note that the Rc-
publicans too, are not idle in the
matter OF circulating papers and
documents. The chief difference
between them and their opponents
in this regard seems to'bc that the
Republicans are inclined to wan.
der off from home whem seeking
for papers to circulato-lcaving
their homeorgans to work their way
among thepeople as best they may
This course, we'll followed up, will
in time have the effect of killing off
a good many local Republican
journals; whether to the advan.
tage Of the cause in the long run, re-
mains to be seen.

SEYMOUR and Greenbacks.

The Cincinnati Enquirer says,
and the western dOmocratic.papers
pipe the same tune, that Seymour
endorses the Pondleton grcenback
gudgeon trap because he said, in
speech after The Convention, of its
resolutions-"They are in accord
with my wish, and stand upo0
them in the contest into which we
are now chtering," They know
better. They know that the World,
Seymour's organ, and Seymour
himself, oonstrue tho supposed
grecnback clause to mean-"pay
the bonds in grecnbacks only at.
ter they are made as good as gold
by the resumption Of specie pay.
ts-but make no initiation by
now issues Of greenbacks. Oi
course the resolutions are ''in &C.
cord" with Seymour's swish for
he wished to deceive the people
East and West. Here, his ''stand

interpreted as favoring thcm-
there, as trampling them under
foot. This sort of fhumbdggery is

No Farce Wanted.

1t is becoming evident tina: an
election for President in tho late
rebel States by a so called popular
vote will be but the veriest farce,
registering all, or nearly all Of
them in the Seymour and Blair
column Of States. Tho rebels
there have been allowed to retain
their wealth, giving them the dis
pensation of favors and employ.
ment; they have the sympathy, aud
material "aid and comfort" from q
traitor President, and the prestige
of ancient power and Of fierce and
murderous determination which
will tend 10 keep Union men from
being active in tho canvass or at
the polls. The only way, as II now
seems, in which the loyal sentiment
of the South can have expression
in that election, is to have the Pres
idential Electors chosen by the ex,
isting Legislatures of those ST. tcs
The country wants no President
