INSTEAD Of calmly awaiting
the unbiased popular judgement,
this Administration is determin-
ed to re-elect itself in spite Of all
opposition. 1t uses the ma
chinery of the Government and
the money in the Treasury to ac-
complish its object it has no
more right to employ them than
she opposition has. And they
all go pushing to and fro on their
personal errands, Wilson is run
ming here and the without in
sight into the meaning of this
struggle. Grant exhibits him
self in dumb show from railroad
car platforms and tavern win
dows. They are every one busy
with their work, and for the time
have abandoned their duties, and
given over the claims Of the
country to their official attention

-JUsT to show how the peo-
pies money goes, let u.s. refer to
the internal revenue collections
for the State of Maine. 1t ap-
pears that the actual receipts of
revenue in theientire state amout
to S53,622 SO; to collect which
it costs in salaries to Govern
ment officials $4,000, leaving
Uncle Sam the insignificant sum
of S20,622 83. This is a pretty
showing, isn't it? Maine is not
the only state where such abuses
prevail. 1t is the same in almost
every state in the Union; and
such facts explain where the
people money goes, and who
pocket it.

Those who feel willing to
endorse the wrongs and injuries
inflicted on the South by the
present vindictiye administration
can vote for Gen. Grant; those
who dispise and detest the mill
tary autocrat now in the White
House, will vote for Honest
Horace Greeley. To those who
are doubling Thomases we would
say there is but one way, to end
this Grant despotism, and that is
to heartily support the honest
farmer candidate, Horace Greeley,
who will be our next President,
and restore the country to pros
perity and freedom.

Indiana had dwelt with great
JUNCTION upon the utter dissimil-
arity between the conversion Of
Saul of Tarsus and that Of the
Democratic party, and, feeling
certain that his arguments had
convinced his audience, asked,
''What angel of the Lord has
met the Democratic party and
turned them from their evil
course?" "Horace Greeley" was
the unexpected response sent up
in a clear voice from the crowd,
The orator didn't feel like saying
anything more.

"REDUCING THE PUBLIC
N0a 'shNl DEBT"
How it is Done

president GRANT has reduced
the public debt 100000, ,OOO,"
says every Radical paper Has
he? Let US see! The public
records do not show how such
a reduction. Instead of being
reduced, the public debts are be-
ing increased. Why do not the
Radical leaders tell the people
that GRANT has SO administered
his internally despotic laws in
the South, that the public debt
there, as well as in the Northern
States, has increased frightfully,
under his administration? We
will show a specimen of the Gre
duction of the public debt"
Public debts embrace debts of
the States, as we'll as of the ma
tional government. GRANTS
political scoundrels, who have
been inflicted upon the South,
have produced this sort of a re-
duction, which we advise JONES
and the other Macarthur Ringites
to read to the half dozen and
dozen persons who go to hear
them talk pretty these cool
nights till bedtime in the school
houses in different parts of the
county:
Alabama owed ss,OOO,OO in 1868, now she is
bound for $4,000 900. Arkansas has increased
her liabilities from 81 600 600 to nearly 500 900 000
Florida from little or nothing to nearly $4,000
VVU; Georgia from five or six millions to nearly
| $6O,OOO,OOO; however, $6,000.000 of fraudulent
bonds have been stopped lately; Louisiana Ifrom
$10 900 to $41 O00 900 In 1850 with defciency
OfoVer $1,000, 900 last year; North Carolina from
say, OOOOOOO In 1861 to nearly s35 900 900: soutl
| Carolina, from, say s6,0OO,0OO to $s9,OOO,O 900
Tennessee, from $290O0,000 to $4,000, 900; Texa.
from nothing to about I6,OOO,OOO with over s5,.
| 100000 of taxation this year, beside the enor.
nous county taxation in all the States and moi
dollar Of thisfor the confederate war debt
that was all repudiated, and many of the States
have nothing to show for all the millions i'm.
posed by State and county taxation upon them
These figures show how the
public debt has been increased
instead of reduced, all since the
GRANT party came into power
The figures show the price o
carpet-bag which GRANT deals
largely in. The price is paid by
the people of the States named
The Radical mode of "reducing
the public debt" is cutting of
one end and adding to the other
end"
Of course you wish the gov
ernment to be administered hon
estly and cheaply. Then vote
against every man on the GRANT
ticket, from GRANT down to
County, Coroner.

UNION DEpoT.-Our neighbor, the
Dispatch, this morning adds its influence in
favor of the erection of union railroad
passenger depot. The arguments presented
are about the same as those urged by us on
several occasions, and are unanswerablc.
Many others might be stated, but we take
1t for granted that it is unnecessary. to do
SO. Our railroad companies will not fail to
see the advantages to accrue from the erec-
ton of a union passenger depot, nor will
our citizens be backward in lending their
influence in matter of such vital impor-
tance to the interests of Richmond. We
sincerely trust our railroad men will take
speedy action in the matter. The time is a
most favorable one.

VALUE OF WORTHLESS CURn
IN LOUISA CoUNTY.-In view of the re-
cent discussion of the dog question:" a
suit just decided in the county court of
Louisa may possess some interest for our
readers, as showing the public estimate of
the value of a dog, which, we believe, has
no real existence as property in the State OF
Virginia. A dog belonging to Mr.. Dickin-
son, while depredating upon the premises
of Holiday, was shot and..killed by the lat
ter. Mr.. Dickinson brought suit for
damages in the county court, Judge E. II.
!, Lane presiding during the trial. After a
hearing of the case, verdict was rendered
in favor of the plaintiff, and damages as
sessed at $50. This seems to be most ex-
traordinary proceeding, but we are assured
that the facts are as stated. If the senti-
ment thus indicated prevails to any consid-
erable extent in Virginia, we can expect
very little protection for sheep under the
recent action of the Legislature.
