In The Congressional Directory for tha
second session Of the Fortieth Congress,
the record Of Senator sprague, furniahed BY
himself, reads that he 'twas elected to the
limited States Senate as Republican
In the Directory for the thIr1 session Of the
same Congress, this Was changed go as to
read that he "vas elected to tbs United
States Senate aa Democrat; and tbs
Providence journal declares that "this
alteration was made by &he express per-
"sonAl direction OF Governor Sprague-" !"
It would now appear that Sp1ague, though
still determined to act no longer with the
Republicans, hss abandoned his intention
Of casting his lot with the Democracy,
as it is announced that he "And
'"Pet Hnlstead are arranging the details
." for Il new political party" sp1ague
never has erinced the poessssionof political
wisdom, and Of lats has given many posi-
tive evidences Of downright folly; but the
fact th2t he has reconside1cd his intention
of joining the Bou1bons shows that his
! brains arc not completely added. ''Pst
Halstead is not exactly the kind Of individ
| 11al whom sensible man would select as his
political co-laborer; but he is cettainl,
| preferable to Vallandigham, voorhees,
Brooks l. Co, By all means, let Spsagut
md Halstead Start their new political party
As the stalwart man said when his puny
wife was beating him, "1t doeaat hurt me
and it pleases het."
