been going about for months in the fond
belief that the Democrats and Liberals Of
Cairo were on the most friendly terms,
and we're getting on "as snug as friendly
bugs in cozy rug;" but now comes in
our friend Jack, and with his iconoclastic
hand skaters our blissful belief into frag-

the world; and indeed We may add, that

Now, this is sheer cruelty on the part Of
the venomous Winter, and his conduct is
unbecoming high-toned Liberal. While
he was Radical we expected little from
him. We were not surprised at his quar-
relsome disposition, at the fact that he was
always wrangling, fighting, debating,
boiling, abusing his fellow.partisans and
raising the devil generally. We looked
