Democratic Economy.

Many of our Democratic exchanges
have much to say about the extrava-
gance of Radical officials but the Dem
ocrats like to spend the peoples money
when they have the power, rs well as
their opponents. In other words, they
don't practice what they preach. AS an
illustration of Democratic economy, ref
erence is made to the contingent OK
penses" in furnishing the Executive
Mansion of the Governor of Kentucky
for the year past. The total expcndi-
ture on this account was S34 ,369.l0. The
sum does not include anything for
building, but is chiefly for new furni-
ture and crockery.
We copy Il few of the items of the ac-
count:
eucbre stand S25
/ fine gilt slop jar aud foot bath 80
dozen Bohemian finger bowls Is
patent churn Ia
| patent ice-cream freezer 10
2 dozen whiskey tumblers 3
No less than $242O was expended in
one day for chamber furniture, and the
quantity of China were purchased for
use in the Governors palace rs it
is called by some, would be sufficient to
furnish respectable hotel. More than
two thousand dollars went for curtains,
and everything connected with the es-
Enlistment has been procured of the
best and most expensive materials, and
apparently ut the highest prices.

The little ailments, griefs, and dis
comforts to which poor weak humane

have to bear. Loss of hair is one afflic-
ton to some people quite unbearable.
Yet that loss ELECTS no consolation from
our friends. Turn then to the greatest
benefaction of this golden age. and APP

That the late election in Tennessee
was characterized by wholesale fraud
is paIpable. from the following facts:
The Vot for Governor stands, Il6,635
for senter, and 55.I96 for Stokes, The
vote for Grant was 56.757, Only b561
greater than the vote for Stokes. The
vote for Seymour was 26,31l, and for
Etherfdge the year previous only r.
as. The whole vote polled in 1867 was
was 97,O32 andln 1858 it was s3,O6s.-
Thus it viii be seen that the vote for
senter alone was 1908 gtea,er than
the entire vote OF the State tA 1867, and
s3,567 greater than il was in 1865. In
the face of these facts no one will for a
moment suppose that Mr.. Senter could
have obtained 50 large . vote by any
legitimate means. The fact is Ire fran
chise law was utterly disregaded and
certificates ofregistration were Issued to
all the rebels in open disregard of lis
provisions. Whatevermay be the merit
or propriety of rebel entrance isement
at this time al must agree that this Is
not the proper way to arrive At il.

DEATH OF SECRETARY RAW
Inns.

Our dispatches bring the painful an
n-ouncem0nt of the death of Gen. John
A RaWlins, Secretary of Wal of the
UnitedStates. His career was brilliant
but short, for he had not completed his
Lhirty1ninth year. His life strikingly
exemptiffed that encouragement which
our fres Institutions giveto genius in
the humblest condition of-life. He was
born In Joe Daviess county, Illinois,
February IS, 1881. Until the age Of
tWenty-three he worked as an ordinary
farm hand and as q charcoal-burnpr,
except during the winter when he at
tended common schools and country
academies. Ia November, 1854, be be-
gan the study of law at GsIena, aryear
later vas admitted to practice, and Tor
the next i've years was an industrious
lawyer and active Democratic politi-
clan. He soon became acquainted with
the present occupant Of the White
House, then a leather dealer at Ga1ena,
and their acquaintance rpeued into
friendship. Though Mr.. Rawlins labor
ed hard for the success of the Douglas
ticket in 1850, the outbreak of the war
found him a strong supporter of the adj
ministratiOn in it's effort to
rebellion, and In September, 1861, he
began raising a regiment for the the
field The organization of his force was
not completed, When he received and
accepted a position on Gen. Grants staff
as Assistant Adjutant General with the
rank Of captain. From September Is,
1851, to the surrender of Lees army, in
April, 1865, he was constantly with his
commander, except during the three
months, OF 1864, when he was compeIl-
ed by Illness to take a furlOngh. His
relations with Gen. Grant were of the
most intimate and harmonious eharac-
ter. He was commissioned Major and
Assistant -AdjutaEt General, to rank
from the date Of the surrender of Fort
DonelsOn; Chief of staff, with the rank
of Lieut.. Colonel, November l, 1862;
Brigadier Generalo of Volunteers, Au-
gust IL, 1858; Major General of Velun-
teers, February "a, 1865; March 8, 1865,
Chief of Static the Lieut.. General COM
handing, with b ran of Brigadisr.
General of the United States ARMY
Subsequently, he was hreYeted Major
General of the United States Army to
rank from March 8, 1865. On Gen.
Grants accession to the Presidency,
Cen RawliBs was appointed Secretary
of War which he held at the time of his
deeease, His combination of thorough.
legal know ledge with military skill.
rendered his ADVICE extremely valuable
and his loss can not easily be supplied.

Harriet Beech6r Stoves narrative in
reference to Lord Byron is not very en-
phatieaIIy discredited by the English
bress. The London Ne1rs says it does
not contain the whole truth, but is
probably true as far IS II goes. The
Nees can't see that Mrs. Stowe has
done anything but made a fair and val
uble contribution to the verseity and
exactitude Of history. The solicitors of
Lady ByrOn's family have published a
communication in the Tendon journals
stating that Mrs. Stoves articleis not n
complete or authentic statement, and.
does not involve any direct e~Eideuee.-
They protest against theartiele in stfeng
terms but make no direct denial of its
statements. Nevertheless the public
cannot be expected to accept those
statements as true without evidence,
and as long as there remains a doubt Of
their authenticity Byron, bad as his
character was, should have the benefit
of the doubt.
