the present It will, be enough to say that 2
fewofthe best informed and most honest of

candidly admits that he .s.was singularly ignor:
ant aud narrow minded that of political
economy he knew absolutely nothing that he
had fought slavery SO long, that he would
never do any thing else &c, &c. This will

Grant and Gold for the holders of
bonds which are now payable in
greenbacks.-Buffalo Courier.
Who are tho Repudlators b!

The life and fire insurance compa-
nies which have received their pre-
miums in gold for twenty years past
pay their losses in grcenbacks. No
one disputes their course, or accus-
es them. But when the presidents
and directors of these companies
officiate at radical meetings, and de
nounce the old hard money Cemoc-
racy as ropudiato it is our duty
to hurl back the epithet.
When the bondholders first OBJ
tanned their exemption, tho taxes
raised in this State mou,tcd to
twenty six millions. They have
run it up to forty six millions, and
have thrown the bounty debt and
the school debt and the internal i'm
provement debt upon the mas of the
people.
These people, who refuse to fulfil
their obligations to share the bur-
denis Of the State with their fellow
citizens, are the real regulators.
When they appear at meetings and
in print, denouncing the Democracy,
confront them with these facts, and
expose their claim to exemption
and. if need lie, produce the cvi-
dcnce from the assessors list. Let
the people know who are the repu-
diators ALBANY Argus.

Items for Tay.Payers.

In an article on State finances
the other day, We stated that the
Auditor estimated the expenditures
for 1869 at $941, 639.31, and
claimed that if the actual cxpcndi.
lures should exceed the Auditors
estimates as much as they have
heretofore, they would reach ST.
500, 900. We have since added up
the actual appropriations made by
the Legislature, and find they exceed
one million of dollars, and do not
in fact cover one half of the items OF
expenditures in amount as estimat.
ed by the Auditor, which any per-
son who doubts our statement can
readily see by running through the
appropriation bills found in the last
session laws, and comparing them
with the Auditors estimate. The
most of which estimates, not cover
ed by tho appropriations, are for
current expenditures that must be
met such as printing, binding,
publication Of laws in newspapers
agricultural societies, etc. Instead
Of our statement being cxtrava CANT :,
we are satisfied that when the books
are balanced the expenditures Of
1868 will be found to come near
or 81, 600, 600 than the sum we be-
fore stated. Under eight years of
Democratic rule, from the organiza-
tion Of the State government to
1855, when it was turned over to
radicals, the average expenditures
pcr year was but SOL, 200, which
have now become Is or 20 times as
great as then !: and that too in a
State cited by radical organs as a
model Of radical economy. Tax
payers how do you like the model ?
If you have not time to examine
these records in full, just take your
old tax receipts of IL and 16 years
ago and compare them with those Of
the past few years and you will be-
gin to open your eyes to some of the
devices by which the present radical
party are constantly increasing the
bu: dens OF the taxpayer. -Faycttc

The Debt Increasing.

The Radical party talks of re-
trenchment and reform. But fear
full as is our public debt, and sigan.
tic as are the revenues which the
radicals extort from the pockets of
the people, yet the debt is increas-
ing. Last December Secretary
Nc Culloch reported to Congress that
the total public debt, less cash in
the Treasury, amounted to So, ,491, :
5O4, $50. His statement of August
7th, printed by us on Saturday, is
that on the first day Of this month
the total public debt, less cash in
the Treasury, amounted to So, 5o3,-
534, $50. Here we have an increase
of $32, O30, ,O3O. Look at atit-TnInry
TWO MILLIONS of increased indcbt-
cdness in the course cf eight months.
In connection with this, bear in
mind that the radical witncsss
Wells, introduced by the Democrat,
states that the revenues extortcd
from the people during the year end
ing June Both, 1868 amounted to
the appalling sum Of $471, 700, 900.
And yet SO reckless and extrava-
CANT are our radical rulers that,
while squeezing out of the people
