DRAW POKER AND THE ELECTION
The Louisville Courier takes the follow
ing draw-pok okerish view of the election:
"We seem to have struck one of those
streaks of bad luck which sometimes
overshadow the fortunes of the most
ski!lful and deserving. No matter wha
we hold, the Radicals have just enough
to beat it. New Jerseys two little pair
turn out neither more nor less than Mis-.
souri's three little aces. We thought we
had full hand in Tennessee and flush
at least in Alabama-and so we did have
but the showdown proves them to be
not worth cent. The raise we made
on Indiana costus all we had won and a
little more beside. We had slipped Vir.
ginia in cur sleeve, and hid Arkansas
under tho table. But it's no use. They
beat US holding, beat us drawing, and
beat us playing. It is evidently not our
moon. We had sickly hope that by
hanging on, things might brighten. But
the news this morning is DO better in
one sense, and considerably worse in
another. The best we can do is to Jump
the game and try our luck some other
time. Partner, they've got u.s."

A young man named Timothy
Thomas was arrested few days ago for
stealing a can of oysters from the store
of w. II. Brown on Main Street. lie
was committed to Jail by Esquire Brow
cr in default of 5000 bail. An intense
desire for fish seems to prevail amongst
the youth of this town. 1t will be re.
membered that last week we noted tho
arrest of another young fellow for steal.
ing fish from f. Jacoby. We would
suggest to any other youths cOntem-
plating this species of larceny that, as
fish is known to be brain. producer,
if they were to purchase and eat GER
tain quantity it might confer upon them
intelligence enough to enable them to
keep their hands from picking and
stealing. We should fancy that term
of weeks in Jail was rather a steep price
to pay for the qualification Of an appe-
tito.

WE have received letter from a
subscriber, who signs himself "a
straight out Democrat" ordering his
paper to be stopped at the end of the
year giving as a reason that he does not
want anything that renounces the
Democracy of our fore fathers for
Greeley.ism.' We are sincerely sorry
for the gentleman, as we do not know
where he is to procure his future news.
paper reading matter, that is among
Dem ocratic papers. Almost every pa
per of our party supported at the re-
cent election, sooner or later, the candi-
date of the Baltimore Convention. A
few so called Democratic sheets, declar-
ell themselves in favor Of the Blanton
Duncan Grant faction or, like the D0y
Book, nobody at all, but almost the en-
tire party press advocated the claims of
Horace Greeley. We arc not sure that
we understand exactly what our cor
respondent means by Gre; ley-ism but
we do know that those Democrats who
opposed or refused to vote for him made
up the large mojority which placed
Grant in Office for Il second term. AS
to which of the two men was the more
desirable for the Democracy is matter
of taste on the part of our friend; we
have never had any doubt in our own
mind.
