I notist in the public prints (wich
oonlooshon seezo) an item to the ef-
fock that the loadin Dimocrisy, (wioh
is the men NV wealth, wich hevin
stole themselves rich arc anxious to
keep ther wealth and be bloated aris-
tocrats) hev determined TO no longer
perfect TIE thieves, boud-robbers,
garrotors, burglars and sich, who arc
maxim that city lively for that class,
and that when sich nre taken they
must take ther chances the same ez
though they lived in other cities
How much IL cost EN- to get the
courts for en- | don't know, but that
our friends arc to hev a hard time NV
it hereafter, is certin. One NV en-, a
brito and shinin lite who wuz accused
NV n burglary, complicated with a
murder or two, wuz not only arrestid
and tried, but wuz convictid, and
sentenced to Sing Sing for forty
years, and another for twenty.
At first site this settled the quos-
tion NV my goin to Moo York ad.
vcrscly, | thot to myself, if these
iuiatooatid mon persist in their dc.
termcnashon to hang and imprizcn all
NV these men onto wioh thoy kin git
thor hands onto, the Dimokratic ma~
jority in Moo York will fade out like
erosi under a May sun, and the Ro.
publikius will carry il, jist cz soon cz
the courts get thro with ther work.
How long IL will take to kill on
the Dimorkratic majority in the city,
by law, is very easily ascortainod-
There are suthin like twenty crimi-
nal courts in the city, and | spoze, eff !
the Judges push things, each court
kin average one convickshen a day.
We hev real majority IN the city Nv
10000. We hov given ez high ez
10000, but 10000 NV these wuz 70.
peoters. Now of the courts hang aud
imprizcn 20 per day, and hold sess-
ions six days in tho week, il will take
five years or thoroabouts 10 wipe out
our majority entirely, and throw the
city into the hands NV our nateral
enemies.
Probably it wood bo done sooner,
for the mint they begin hangin in
earnest, pcrtikclorly Of they COM
mcuoe on our loedin men, tho smaller
fry will take fright aud scatter, It
is safe to say that by tho next Presi.
deushl oleckshun tho majority in the
city will be so redoost ez to make the
State shoor for tho Radikols.
/ he'd made up my mind to aban-
don the idea Nv locatiu in Moo York,
but an aitor-thought changed my
purpose | shel 60 to Moo York.
An ordinary States Prison will hold
fifteen hundred oonvix. The three
or four prizens tho State hoz is all
full, aud not one in n thousand is
sent to en- who ought to be. Ez
matter NV course new prizens will hev
to be built, aud to accommodate our
majority twenty new ones will be
required. Now tho Court House in
Moo York heE alreddy made the for.
choons NV twelve contrackters, wich
hev all reSired independently rich,
and experienced calculations hov fig
gered that twenty moro will make
their pile out NV it, before il is finisht,
A Stato's Prizen kin be made to cost
eE much ez tho Court House, for NV
course they will be 6uisht with all |
the modera improvements for the
ecnvi2, incloodin gas aud hot aud |
cold water. The uufortuit men
ought to live in the same style ez be
fore ther inearesasheu. IL would be
crooel 60 deprive an Alderman or
member NV the Common council, or
member NV the Board of Edycashun,
nv the black walnut furnitoor they
hov been accustomed to.
Under our present management, at
least 32 men kin be made indepeud-
ent out NV each priEeu. 20 times 30
is 6iO, wioh is the precise number
NV Democratic leaders who kin be
made comfortable out NV this mis-.

no great loss without some small
gain. While We are redoosin our ma
