The Difference,

The Democratic papers are raising Q
great hue aud cry over the Evans en-
bezzlement at Harrisburg.
This is done to withdraw attention
from the immense frauds OF the Tam
many ring in New York, where the
Dem otratic swindles have amounted to
almost as many millions as there are
thousands in the Evans affair.
The difference Of the two parties is
strikingly exhibited in the course of the
party papers respecting these FRAUDS.
The Democratic papers have not a
word to say against the wholesale swln-
dlers in New York, carried on for
long series of years. They protect and
bolster up their thieves, on party
grounds. They are willing that the
people shonld be feeced provided the
money goes into the pockets of Demo
cratic plunderers.
The Republican papers denOunce
fraud and swindling, no matter by whom
perpetrated They make it to be un
derstood that Republican office holder
vino does wrong can expect no mercy al
their h ,nds.
The people can judge from this
which is the safer party to have cOntrO
of public affairS.-[Telegraph.

Every year increases the popu-
larity of this valuable Hair Prep
aration, which is due to merit
alone. We can assure our cd
patrons that it is kept fully up to
its high standard; and it is the on
ly reliable and perfected prepara-
ton for restoring GRAY OR FADED
HAIR to its youthful color, making
it soft, lustrous, and silken. The
scalp, by its use, becomes white and
clean. 1t removes all eruptions and
dandruff, and, by its tonic proper
ties, prevents the hair from falling
out, as it stimulates and nourishes
the hair-glands. By its use, the
hair grows thicker and stronger.
In badness, it restores the capillary
glands to their normal vigor, and
will create new growth, except in
extreme old age. 1t is the most
economical HAIR DRESSING ever
used, as it requires fewer applica-
tions, and gives the hair splendid,
glossy appearance. A. A. Hayes,
MD, State Assayer of Massachu-
setts, says, "The constituents arc
pure, and carefully selected for ex-
cellent quality; and [ consider it
the BEST PREPARATION for its
intended purposes"

The Cost OF CUBA-PAYrNe DEARLY ron
THE WHsTLE.-From ministerial statement
just made to the Spanish Cortes it appears that
the cost OF tue war in Cuba for the past year
had been sixty-two millions of dollars. This
surely is paying dearly for the whistle. How
much more sensible it would have been if tbe
Spanish government had handed the island
over to us and in lieu thereof pocketed saw
one hundred millions OF dollars. 1t is not yet
too late, and in the matter of Cuba Spain ought
not to be blind to manifest destiny. Sooner
or later Cuba must come under the broad ban-
ner of the republic.
The New York herald., 1871-10-30

THE PROBABLE END OF THE NORTHWESTERN
FIREs.-The storm of Saturday in Nevada
will, in its movement northward and eastward,
probably put an end to the long lingering fires
in the Northwest But, like every great loss,
that Of our stricken and desolated territory
will not be half known until time sufIices for
information to come in and the people can
properly estimate the destruction. The pre-
sent storm is reported to be very severe,
and II will doubtless be succeeded by q
spell Of very cold weather, for which thou
sands in the Northwest are sadly unprepared.
Their condition originally was humber and
poorer than that Of the wealthy people of Chi
cago, and their real suferings, it is to be
feared, have not yet been fairly told. Tele-
graphic communication with hundreds of
points In the burnt districts is cut off; the mails
are, doubtless, delayed or have been stopped,
and we may yet hear much more of the hor-
rors Of their fate.
The New York herald., 1871-10-30

Hall is their only hope. He can give them
relief stt once i he vii! s.1s, ..a; exercise the
authority placed in his hands and assert
his power and his rights as the chief
executive officer of the city. The abuse
of the partisan press is heaped upon him
for the purpose Of deterring him from
taking decisive action and putting a stop
to the anarchy that at present prevails
Let him take bold stand, aud Immediately
get rid Of those heads Of department who are
already virtually convicted of having shared
in the plunder of the city. Punishment, If
punishment is to be awarded-restitn!ion if
restitution is to be required, can come here
after but the corruptionists should be driven
from Office without delay, aud the credit and
good order of the city should be restored at
once. This can be accomplished with the aid
of the Supreme Court, if not without it, for
Judge Barnard stands committed and pledged
to 'invent remedy" by which abuses in
the city government can be speedily cured.
Let Mayor Hall remove Connolly and Tweed
through the power of the Court, if he
CduuOt cJcCt Cucm WltuOut SuCu aSSlSIduCe,
and let him place Andrew Fl. Green in full
charge of the city finances and General
Mcclellan at the head of the Department of
Public Works. This will not only restore
confidence in the government, but will
confound the schemes and intrigues Of
the political harpies who are seeking
to keep up the present anarchy for the accom-
plishment of their own ends. 1t will bring
order out of disorder, and will defeat the
hopes Of those who would not hesitate to
plunge the city into riot and bloodshed if they
could thereby promote their own interests.
What says Mayor Hall? Shall we
have two strong and honest men
at the head of the two most important depart
ments in the city government, with restored
credit and return to law and order before
election, or shall we continue to live on in
state of semi-communism, with the prospect of
worse evils before us-a libel on republican in

The British Premier In Defence Of Hi
Own Policy.


Own Policy.
Mr.. Gladstone has just had an ovation at
Greenwich. 1t has been known for some time
that his constituents were anxious to have a
visit from their illustrious representative. On
Saturday Mr. Gladstone met their wishes, and
on Blackheath Common some twelve thousand
persons listened to his eloquent words. We
know no man who ever heard Mr.. Gladstone
speak who will refuse to admit that he is the
most pleasing and effective speaker of his day.
himself in his best style and abundantly graft
fed his constituents. The burden of his
speech was vindication of his policy. He
spoke with pride Of those measures which he
had introduced and carried through which had
for their object the concilation of Ireland.
With equal pride he referred to the improve
ments he had introduced into the army and
navy. 1t was something to be able to say
that the government Of which he is the chief
has had the longest lease Of life Of any similar
government since the passing of the Reform
bill in 1882. We can excuse Mr.. Gladstone
1Or taxing 10 himself aHu LIS duWuisuatiou
all the glory he cam but we have right to
recognize the facts that Ireland is not yet con-
ciliated, and that under his policy of economy
Great Britain has sunk into the condition Of a
second rate power. 1t deserves to be noticed
that Mr.. Gladstone is determined to carry
through his Ballot bill, and that he is not un-
prepared, if need be, to make some radical
changes in the character and composition Of
the House of Lords. The next session of the
British Parliament promises to be more than
usually lively. Much heavy work is on hand;
but the Premier is courageous and determined
to go through with it. Onward is Mr..
Glads. ones motto and under his guidance
the British people have good reason to hope
for the early enjoyment Of republican institu-
tions.
