ONE OF THEN.

We mentioned the fact last week that tlt
Grant plunderers have an editorial ring al
Washington, who are furnishing editorials tc
their slave press in The country. The Ne
vada TRANSCRIPT of Sunday contains one OF
these-that is, we suppose it came from
Washington, as the Transcript man could
beat It. 1t is an attempt to show that
| Grant has reduced the national debt about
| $500 coo GOO in three years. Now the
| truth is that Grant ard his leeches have
collected over 81, 200 100000 in the three
years, fully s525, eco, GOO of which, should
have been paid on the debt. This would
give $225 COO 600 year for interest on the
debt and expenses of Grants administration;
and this shows that Grant and his thieves
have actually stolen of the people taxes in
three years, S525 ,0O0 eco, sum equal TO
S28 from every voter in the United States
When Grant became President there was
some $500, 600, 900 worth of war and nava!
material on hand that he and his leeches
have sold and pocketed the proceeds, which
added to tie above sum, would show that
they have robbed the country Of about ST.
325, ,OC0,0C0. This would show that Grant
and his thieves have actually received some
$2,CC0, eco, eco from the people in money
and plunder, and all they have to show for
it is some $500, eco, eco paid on the public
debt, aside from the legitimate expenses OF
he government. Here is some Of the
transcripts figures, or those Of lis Wash
ington editors: 1t says the debt Grant has
paid makes monthly saving of 81 ,633,-
543 %, and daily saving of $6ll Isl %.
From this it would seem this Grant dupe
thinks That three days make a month. The
people have been paying Grant money to
pay the debt with, and for every six dollars
they have given linn he puts five in his
pocket and pays one on the debt That's
Grants way, and the people are going to
turn him out and put old Horace in his
place and try that Il while.

B. GRAIz BnowN was taken suddenly and
violently sick in New York the other day,
bu, is now out of dlnger 1t is not said
that he was poisoned, but it would probably
be we'll be fox both him and Greeley to be
careful as to who cooks for them or mixes
their drinks from now till after the election,
as Grants bloody thief ring would not stop
at even murder to get them ont Of the way.

THE Sacramento Unjo't is trying to prove
that Iowa will 90 for Grant. When the Un
ion satisfies itselfthlt Iowa is safe for Grant,
it should then go after Vermont. If the
Union can save these two States, and Grants
army can gather enough votes with the bay
onet to save South Carolina, that will just
save Grant from being "s&unked
HENRY Wilson, candidate for Nlcc-Pfesi-
dent with Grant, said in speech in Massa-
chuscits in 1854:
"The time has como when the uniform Of the
State militia should no longer be d6gacCd 10y
Dclng seen on tle hdcN OF u Natn0uc lflaulldl
or an lnGdel Dutchman.
BY the light Of these burning shanhes, the
Teuton and the Celt may read the doom that
will overtako them in the attempt to compel,
with the native born American for political
supremacy on this continent
Ii Grant could pay the consequential
damages in money that the American peo-
pie have suffered through his maladminis-
traton, this would be the richest nation
under the sun.
