DISSERTATION OF THE MARKET.-There are
few persons who have passed through the
market and have not noticed the numerous
booths or eating stands that are located in the
lower portion near East Bay. 1t ls OF little inl-
portance to know whether these restaurateurs
have paid their market license or not; but
there should be some surprise expressed when
the despoliation OF property is witnessed.
These small dealers have each stove in which
they keep their provisions war IL. The smoke
from this stove has no meaus of escape, and
tho pillars and ceilings ale blackencd and
abused by the fires that are daily hindled i'll
these chosen spots. The booths are we'll pa
tronized by number of persons who could
hardly obtain warm meal cheaper, but the
fumes of fcooking and the disagreeable result
caused by the smoke induce many to neglect
that portion Of the market. The East Bay
end, where these cookists most do congregate,
is not occupied by any one, but if the "fesh
pots" were removed 10 the new Fish Market
the nuisance would be abated, and the custo-
mers of the African danes can then be served
with their savory viands without annoyance to
others.

saddIed upon the people by the Radical
party:
There is probably no greater anomoly
IN modern times than is seen in this coun-
try that people under popular repu,.
llcan governments government chosen
by themselves and changed every few
years--should submit to burden of taxa.
ton without parallel in the world. That
they submitted this cheerfully in a time
of great civil war for the sake Of preserv-
ing the life and unity of the republic,
showed their patriotism. They were

that raised and expended by the most
costly monarch; al government, in the world.
1t is monstrous. The people arc becoming
restless and disguised, and will certainly
seek remedy either in change of their
public servants or in reputation of the
debt. Uness ahler and more honest men

VIII not be long before we shall hear sir
nitcant and deep mutterings of rel u iiation
from one end of the country to the other.
1.-The present Congress is without ability
to grasp the subject Of national finance
and taxation, and is, withal, reck essy
eStravagant in making appropriations for
all sorts OF things and jobs. 1t is of no
use to reduce the taxes while the expcnd-
itures are so enormous, for that will only
bring depleted treasury und bankrupt
government. The first thing to be done
is to reduce the expenditures two hundred
millions or more, The whole cost of the
government in all departments and ex
penses, independent of the interest on the
national debt, onght not to be over one
hundred millions year. Indeed, itouyht
to be less. Two hundred and fifty millions
revenue is ample. Yet we see it was over
four hundred and sixty millions last year

we are ill-tempered and discontented i
Why. there is not anything which can
please us. We quarrel with our food, with
our dress, with our amusements, with oul
companions, and with ourselves. Nothing
comes right for us; the weather is either
too hot or too cold, too dry or too damp.
Neither sun, nor moon, nor stars have any
beauty; the fields are barren, tho flowers
Iustreless, and the birds silent. We move
about like some evil spirit, neither loving

They can't help 1t.

They can't help IL.
SHOW this world is given to lying" is a
trise old saying. Radica! editors and ora
tors are determined on giving illustrations
of its truth by charges and statements 80
absurd us to be quite unworthy of notice.
In our last issue we gave copies Of the eel
ehrated Lincoln,-Seymour and Stanton
correspondence about the time of the Get.
tysburgh fight. Democrats should pre-
serve that correspondence and Republi-
cans, possessing natural honesty, should
read it and turn away from those who de-
liberately and maliciou-ly falsiry everv-
thing relating to that great statesman,
lIoRATIo SEYMOUR. We give below a
heavy charge and triumphant refutation
OF that charge Both are clipped from
radical journals claiming to deal in
trutt. The Lyons (Iowaj Mirror, so says
the Adrocate Of that city, prints US fol-
lows:
And meanwhile he permitted and en-
| couraged one of the most outrageous and
murderous riots our country ever witness
ed, and patted the perpetrators on the
back, instead Of sternly preventing the
outbreak"
The Adrocofe snys, very truly. that the
occurrence was SO recent that such an ac-
cusation could not have been made in ~
norance : it was therefore made in malice,
and the editor of the Mirror, like other
hired pen divers of the radicals may be
set down as man whose word is good for
nothing in any matter where profit is in
he scale. Wegive the Advocates COM
ments, with its clinching quotation from the
hany IN. " Journal:
We will not attribute ignorance to our
neighbor as the cause for such statement,
because the occurrence OF which he speaks
is OF so recent date, that such accusation
would really be more damaging to the rep
utatiOn of his sheet than the one of utter
ing deliberate lalsehood, in order to make
point politically. 1t will be seen that
the above para graph makes a perfectly
plain charge against Gov. Seymour. which
if true, oLght to damage him materially
in the eyes of the people. We are not
going to deny this ourself, but bring to

Peor Strategy.

Poor Strategy
The Chicago Post in late issue thus
groans over the reasons given by those
honest men who are deserting its party by
thousands. Imagine each sentence below
to come from the mouth of republican
voter who wants to join democratic club.
The Post puts the best of reasons i'm the
mouth of each and it should he impeached
for telling so much truth against its o xn
party.
JUsr HEAR THEM.-The reasoning EN-.
ployed in justitica ion oftheir treachery by
the few Republicans who have left their
party for the purpose of aiding and com
forting the enemy, forciby exhibits the
worst vagaries Of the human intellect.
The Republican arty is corrupt; ther .
fore will not use my influence within the
party to aid the most thoroughly corrupt
organization that ever aflcted this country.
l think the Republicans violated the
Consultation II good many times. l think
the Republicans have been too severe on
the South. l think everybody ought to

J"hnson Democracy, stole the proceeds of
the tax.
l have always been loyal man. I gave

stand this any longer.
We want rs President man of executive
ability. am afra d that Grant is net that
man therefore am for the very firm Ex-
ecutive who quelled the draft riots in New
York.
The National Banks do not please me at
all. We ought to have greenbacks instead
OF their notes therefore instead of labor
ing with that great body of Republicans
who think us do, to get greenbacks, 90
for the party that will make both green
backs and bank notes worth gold dollar
in my hands.
The expenditures of the government ara
enormous, the debt is stupendous; therefore
l 80 for the party that will lessen that debt

ceSsity.
l have always been opposed to slavery
in all its forms and shapes; therefore, /
am for the men who are trying to scrape
together the remains of slavery, and out of
them reconstruct system Of equality, and
not system of slavery.
With excuses and justiications like
these, few men who once voted the Re
publican ticket, are coaxing themse yes in.
to the support of our opponents. Fortunate.
