GEORGE FRANCIS TRIM, who attaches
"the next President" to his name, delivered
a lecture at Franklin a few evenings ago,
and we presume organized "Train
League" The Franklin Journal says :
The mans manner more than anything
else indicates insanity, and we have no
doubt that he is a monomaniac upon the
subject of the Presidency"

Mr.. boutwell,, the Secretary of the
Treasury, admits that he has received in
the last year in the shape of taxes the i'm
mense sum of SSSS, 100000. With these
vast means, the Cincinnati Enquirer asks,
is it any merit that the Administration has
been able to pay S92,OOO,OOO of the debit
The expenses of the Government, if they
were economically administered, would not
exceed 100000, 900, leaving S2S2, 100000
to be applied TO the interest and principal of

The Cincinnati Commercial says: 50 II
Mr.4Seeretafy Fish is to be succeeded in the
State Department by Edwards Pierrepont,
Of New York, the attachment of the Presi,
dent to gentlemen who live in the fine
houses on Fifth avenue will be again illus
trated."
Pierrepont gave $4,000 to the fund for
the election of Grant, and the New York
SIN is of the opinion that If he had given il
to Grant himself in the form of a present,
he would doubtless have been IN the very
first Cabinet of Grants construction instead
Of this last one.

NEW ENGLAND still strives to control
the country. Speaker Blaine, himself New
England man, has been helping his section
in this respect right smartly. The Cinein-
natl Enquirer says: "The most important
committees in the House are those of the
Ways and Means, Banking and Currency
and Foreign Affairs, ana the Chairman OF
each are Massachusetts, men, being respect
lively Dawes, Hooper and Banks. New
England, with her three millions of people,
thus shapes both our financial interests and
foreign affairs. We appear 10 be the United
States of New ENGLAND"

GRANTS way of cultivating friendly re-
htions with Russia is to maliciously de-
u0unce the late Russian Minister who is
the travelling compani on of the Cars son

dent says 'the Presidents course has placed
dishonorable brand upon Catacazy, which
can not fail 20 be observed by the Grand
Duke. The result must be that either the
Grand Duke must abandon his trip and re-
turn at once to his country, or else place
himself in the anomalous position Of trav-
cling with disreputable character. The
Presidents action can not fail Of causing
much embarrassment in any case"
