My wrongs, Oh King Jack, have su1.A y, up "
my heart
And revenge should be had ere this life l DE-
part;
But now, for the moment, put it aside
Till we see, for the Ring, the best course to he
tried.
Come pluck up your courage, and seem to look
spry,
Stick straw in this barrel, tits filled with old
And while you are sucking, I'll cudgel my
brain
To fix on some plan so we win this campaign.
| thought the tax payers on mischief were bent,
So laid on the Court House the money we
spent
And pitched over isaacs, and slaughtered Mac
gill,
And swore Adys place, Johnny Bacon should
fill;
So now, am astonished to learn from my King
These people doth swear they will wipe out
the Ring.
Let us send Tommy Twin round the country
at eve
To gather the people, whom we will deceive.
To these Barbecues, too, let us send Billy Keech
For we know, at such meetings he makes q
good speech.
And, honest as Lincoln, his word is received,
So the people we'll fool, whom oft have de-
ceived
Let us seem to be pious and swear We are good
Our bills they are small, but are not undess
That we urged the best measures and promises
kept,
And ifiudges are needed, we have few left.
We will wheedle the niger and swear him a
brother,
Then hunt up poor Patrick and claim him
another,
Cry Reform" to the people, and praise local
Read resolves "high falutn' aud urge their
adoption,
And cry down, in public, all drnking-the
while
In private, we ask them to join in "a SMILE"
Let us kiss all the lasses and children-and
then
Through the wives, we'll be sure to win over
the men.
Thou art valient in action, in counsel art wise
Let us move in this contest as you now advise,
To fight 'gainst the people is no childish play,
Your beaver then cock up and dash in the fray
Now let Tommy Twin fix up meetings.around
Have whiskey in plenty, so good cheer abound
At Jockeys let Billy pour forth his soft notes
Let Fred free the Jail Birds, we need all their
votes.
Let ink flow from Ruby, to blacken the name
Of Matthews, whose good sword will bring US
to shame.
Say Bacon is up and manure has gone down
Miller's bricks are fraud, Emory's ermine is
brown;
lIarry's legs are too short, and the Doctor buI
kills
While each Ring Dove is spotted at Hooper's
three mills.
Ny blood is now warmed up to dash in the
fight,
| Would November were come, Dearest Bobbie
good night. BAH

Unjust.

The Constitution of 1867 contemplated con-
siderable revenue TO the State from the fees of
the different offices. 1t obiges every Clerk and
Sheriff to return to the State all the excess Of
fees received by them over So, 900 per annum and
the actual expenses of the Office. The present
Comptroller has defeated this object and depriv-
ed the State of this revenue by allowing the fees
of clerk S offices TO be divided among its inmates
The deputy clerks are not TO blame for getting
all the salary they can. But many Of them would
be willing to take the Office for much less than
Comptroller Wooord has allowed them We
suppose the Comptroller may have been prompt
ed by the generous motive of consulting the
Farmers " welfare in doing this. But how it
could benefit either farmer or manufacturer is
something that neither Of them will be able TO
appreciate. Every dollar kept out OF the Treas
ury in this way has to be made up by enlarg;ng
every nau's tax bill.
Farmers, manufacturers, taxpayers, vote for
Judge GnIdsboIough aud against the man who
does you this injustice.

The Greeley ticket has an extensive man

Why didn't the grand jury examine the

To the RdItorI OF the Courant:
In reply to the above communication,
there will not DO much to say, for the
merits or dement's Of the plan oGinsurance
advocated by Professor Wright do not
seem 10 have any connection with the
subject OF reduced rates as proposed by
The Mutual Life Company. In the com.
municatlon OF the 14th inst, quoted by
Professor Wright, Allusion was made to
his plan, because ION large classes Of
policies 1t does not provide for anything
like the amount oil expenses which is fur.
nished by the new rates Of the Mutual
Life" II ithad said what in effect is ex.
actly the same thing, that Mr.. WrighrC
premiums on the savings bank plan were,
less than those proposed ION certain pol
icies) to DO charged by the Mutual Life,
1t Is not likely that he would have found
peg upon which to hang his advocacy
Of his plan. The sufficiency or the in
suflciency Of the reduced rates was the
question, and the rate Of expense was moi
ut all under consideration, as will be
shown further on. First, however, II Il
proper to make defence against the
charges OF claimed Misrepresentation oil

In the opening oil mis- article be quotes
what was said Of his table. His saving:

The premium for tho longest term un-
der the savings bank system being larger
by SO cents than the present Mutual life
premium for the same term, It Is pretty
evident that the Charter Oak is mistaken
in saying that the companies-except one
have declined my plan because it has
$50 very little margin for expenses" II
the present life rates arc safe and have
margin enough for expenses, without the
aid Of endowment insurance policies, then
the savings bank rates prepared by me
have margin enough, If the commissions
and ezperIeS are assessed eQu!ta6y, and
1t is an essential feature OF the system
that they shall be. On the contrary, it
will be perfectly evident, l trust on inspec-
tion Of the figures above, that Mr.. Win
ston's proposed reduction now so happily
defeated, worked as it must have been on
the old plan Of assessing commissions
and expenses on premiums, could not pos.
sibly succeed except at a considerable
sacrifice by the old members, and suppos.
ing it could, still, inevitably, tho long
policies would upjustly burden the short
ones-which is as much as 10 say that it
could not possibly succeed unless the eI-
penses can be reduced TO little or nothing
and the stock Of tools be largely increased
