That last effort brought down the game
after which We had long been hunting.
The Times comes down out of its mask
and admits its guilt as a ku-Klux organ.
Iago was never 50 incarnate as when his
treacherv was discovered: and Othello
never felt his weakness 50 much as when
he detected his greatest enemy in the man
that he had trusted SO implicitly. Always
distrust the speech that panders to pre-
JUDGE, for it must either result from vice

Our neighbor, the Times, is in a bad
way 1t has contracted disease that,
according to its own confession, is kill
ing it by degrees. 1t is very restless in
sleep. Can it be possible that the pricks
of conscience have caused it to be afflicted
with so terrible malady as insomnia ::
The Times had better secure at once the
services Of the fifty-one eminent doctors
who are now employed to cure the fnan-
cial ills that have afflicted this city for at
least decade Of years. If they can't
minister to mind diseased, then there
can be but little hope for the recovery of
the Times.

F. OHara (who on this occasion was so

he uses the following forcible and lin

And no statement lyingly attributed TO
me by Warmoths mouthpiece must satisfy
the public that no means are scrupled at by
thar journal to prejudice public opinion.
And all Senator OHare, or O'Hara, got
angry at, and boxed L;ndley Murray for,
was because We spelled wrongly the name
of the paper in which he :instructed the
public and worked out printing contracts
until the election of Lieutenant Governor
Pinchback.

should discover this to be the case, it will
not rebound to the credit Of Mayor Elan

and lncompetency of the present city gov
eminent had increased the debt of the city

Here is another sneakine threat that
troops are being sent to this city to
NEEDLE with civil authority. We mention
it for two reasons The first is to give
President Grant further evidence of how
he is represented down here, and, if he
don't like the representation to change it,
The next is to give our Judgment of the
wretches who entertain so poor an opin-
ION Of the people Of this country as to
suppose they will stand idly by and per
nit a Presldent-if SO inclined to render
the military superior to the civil power.
We care little for the organ. =
or what it says, further than that
it is regarded as the mouth-piece
of men who claim to be the true SUD-
porters and opponents of the views of
President Grant-of men who are in po-
ltical positions by the grace Of Grant.
and are supposed TO remain in them no
longer than it pleases the President to
keep them there. For the time being.
President Grant is the representative of
the American people in the chief execu
tive branch of the government. If he
fails to represent them properly, he can
not expect to continue in the ENJOYMENT
of their confidence When he looses
their trust in him. be may rest assured
the reign of his political power will be
short And We know of no more certain
way for President to damn himself IL
retrievably damn himself than to under
take to convert this free republic into .
military despotisIn. The course Of the
Customhouse clique has been such. and
is such, if not t,isavowed by the pres;-
dent, as to make the people believe the
President no longer worthy of their con-
tidence. The time is fast APPROACHING
when the people will have to pass ,por
the merits of President Grant at the bal
