The Democratic Show to-day.

We expect to the whole Democratic
Liberal Tammany-k u klux-Reform Party OF
Maine in our city to-day, and a great many
people besides. There have been extraordi-
nary efforts put forth to assemble the clans,
no less parsonage than II. G.. himself put
ting his shoulder to the wheel. He is the lion
that Will draw the crowd, to which the show
men will descant in their characteristic shib-
boleth. He himself viii rear to order for d
few moments, as his keepers prescribe. There
are the best of reasons tor anticipating city
full of strangers. The fare on the trains are
OF $40 or Whereabouts from Bangor, Sl.5C
pays for the trip; SlO1 brings from Portland
and Skowhegan, and from All other stations
on the road the cost Of tickets is correspond
ingly insignificant. We presume the demo-
Gratis will place the number in town at one
million' Many persons, however, will come
merely to look at Horace as they would at
any other noted elephant, aad 10 View our
beautiful city, its public brldings, sc. The
faithful in town have been making extensive
preparations for the occasion. While they
have arranged con their Bills for Banks,
SWEET, Williams and Trumbull, to carry on
the oracular department, they have been
no less thoughtful in copiously providing
spiritual comforts for the body, holding
There's naught 50 soothing to the soul
KS rum and pure democracy.
We notice they have erected a platform al
Bedbug Block, not far from where Joe Sager
was swung off. Perhaps the spot was chosen
for peculiar fitness; at any rate there will be
plenty of auditors provided the inhabitants Of
the house.ca hear; and moreover the Staples
Bedbug banner will be in fall view. We hope
the weather will be auspicious, the trains on
time, the crowd good-natured, the speakers
not too prosy, and the whiskey not too viii
famous; we also hope that after the Ides OF
November-when Horace, discarded by the
people, is seated in his Tribune sanctum
again, he will write just one article on What
he Thinks About Democratic Snobbery in
Maine, and Particularly in Augusta.

How Horace Greeley's TroS"sers were
Mendcd.
Once upon a time Horace Greeley came TO
Augusta to lecture; he was the guest OF
distinguished citizen now deceased; he had
been long time from home, which fact was
rather apparent in the state of the clothing
he wore. Especially did his pantaloons show
rent that was hardly allowable in public.
The good wife of his host was anxious to re-
pair the damage and produced a pair of her
husbands unmentionables for the guest to
wear while his own were being made whole.
But, alas the guest was thick, and the host
was thin the former was chubby and fat
while the latter was tongs-like and slim
The trousers did not fits-could not be got

hand, and the philosopher was in despair.
What could be done? The mending of the

solved the dilemma by suggesting that the
editor of the Tribune go to bed and throw his
garment outside the door. 1t was Happy
thought, not before dreams of in his phlos-
ophy. lie retired to rest. In due time the
trousers were made whole; he donned them
triumphantly and hurried to the lecture room
where the audience had sat wondering why
tile lecturer was not more prompt.
