RICHMOND TYPE FoUEDRY.-The new dress IN
which the Dispatch has appeared for some weeks
was furnished by Messrs. H. L. PRLoUzH Co.,
proprietors of the Richmond Type Foundry.
We have been using their type for eight or ten

country and England. Their prices are uniform
with all the other foundries."
The Richmond Wig says:
"THE RICHMOND TYPE FogNDRY.-We have been
guilty of an inadvertence in failing to mention
that the beautiful suit of type in which the Wing
now appears was manufactured for us at the
Richmond Type Foundry. This is the third out
fit we have obtained from that establishment
one before and two since the war-and we are
prepared to bear emphatic testimony to the fidel

beauty and durability of their work, and to the
fairness of their prices. - s..f- II.

IMPORTANT STATE PAPERS.

On the first page of this issue we publish
the greater portion of the Presidents Mes
sage, and the Inaugural Address of Governor
Moses. The former document has met more
general approval by the public at large than
any paper that has yet emanated from Presi.
dent Grant.
The Inaugural Address Of Governor Moses
will be perused by our State readers with
interest. 1t is, upon the whole, conceived in
better spirit than we had expected, and it re-
mains to be seen how faithfully he will fulfill
the fair promises in which his address abounds.
His appeal to the former ruling class, as he
terms his recent political opponents in the
gubernatorial contest, will, we feel sure, be
not in vain but in their efforts to maintain
the honor and dignity of the State and up
hold her public credit, they will expect a
corresponding effort on the part of the officials
whose sworn duty it is so to do. We are con-
fdent it is the desire of no citizen to throw
the least obstacle in the way Of the incoming
administration while we fully believe all,
without regard to political afiliation, will
second the executive in any and every honest
effort to redeem our State from the existing
evils of the bad government of the past.
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1872-12-12

dollars worth of "extras," such as servants
hire, etc. Grant ought to live on less than ten
thousand year. But he is rich, being worth
we'll up to three hundred thousand dollars.
The Vice-President gets eight thousand
year. Colfax is an economical person, and
saves part of his salary. The cabinet Off
GERS receive the same. Secretary Fish spends
his and twenty thousand dollars year besides.
He is enormously rich, and lives like prince.
He cares nothing for the Office except the
honor. Society people here won't hear to his
being removed from the Cabinet; he gives such
nice dinners, you know!
The other Cabinet officers are not wealthy
with the exception of Deano. He is rich and
close. He saves his salary and lives away
down at the bottom of his income.
The heads of Bureaus receive from three to
six thousand year. There is great inequali.
ty. Some receive twice as much us others and
do less amount Of work.
The treasury clerks are paid twelve, four
teen, sixteen and eighteen hundred dollars a
year, according to capacity. The lady clerks,
of whom there are large number, are paid
eight ten, twelve and fourteen hundred dol
lars.
There is great clamor for more all around
the board, but hope there will beno increase
except in very few cases. If an official
don't like the pay he can "go west" There
are plenty who will do the work we'll for the
price,
But I have got clear off my subject as
usual. Will do better next time MEMO.
