The Newspaper Man,

Little they know or even think
OF the work there is in shedding ink
By the busy wielders of pencil and pen
Generally known as newspaper men,
Jottings," In General" Spice Of Life,
Variations" and rumors rife.
Saturday Notes." and Sunday news,
All sorts Of paragraphs" to amuse,
Market reports, and marine disasters,
Puffs of pills and patent plasters;
Now at the theatre in white eravat,
Claw hammer coat and open hat
Then TO the prize ring, where you write
Siekening details Of bloody fight
Back to the city, just in time
70 report the sermon of some divine;
Steamboat collision, smash up of trains.
Election returns 10 bother your brains;
Agents dramatic. with long winded story,
TO write up his star to theatrical glory.
Deaths and marriages, murders. rows,
Balls and parties, minstrel shows,
Stock speculations, bubbles of air,
Tossed about by bull and bear;
Praising the limb in the dancers pose,
And next the calves in the cattle shows;
Pencil in hand at the racing course,
Taking the time of a trotting horse;
Jotting down each stroke and catch
Made in a famous base ball match
Now of street row taking a note
And then of row in college boat,
These are few of the many things
At which the tireless pencil swings.

Sweetheart

When. first, thy winning grace / found;
When. after grace with love was crowned;
When, later, love was marriage bound;
/ was all thine, Sweetheart.
By all the joys that love has grown;
By all the comforts home has shown;
By all the happiness we've known:
/ am all thine. Sweetheart.
While love shall be our daily sun;
While hand in hand our work is done;
While life shall hold us still as one;
I'll be all thine, Sweetheart.

The opportunity WIS given to some Of tho
County Commissioners yesterday to explain
sway the suspicious circumstance Of having paid
Mr. cushman s145,ooo for the County Hospital
site, though they might havo bought the same
property for $3.50, 900 from Mr.. Baldwin one
hour before. But 1t appears there is no explana-
tion to DO made. Commissioner Jones, who
sooms to haye taken tho purchase under luis
special protection, makes tho point that Mr.
Cushman took Cook County bonds, wlilo Mr.
Baldwin wanted money. But as Cook County
bonds aro in the market at 9311 buyer
and 100 sollar, NO think that Mr. Baldwin would
have been satisfied with tho1n, and that, "a AIr.
OushmAn is banker, lie Gnu mike them availa-
bic for 10 much money. Tho ugly fact remaina
that tho County Commissioners paid one man
$4,000 more for certain piece Of property
than they would pay another man and tho in
fhrenco is inevitable that some peculiar "influ-
cnco" was exefted to Induce them thus
nagrantly to throw away tho public money.
Just what TINT "inAuence" was, 1t would bo In.
teresting to know. An evening paper assumes
that the County Board is dosirous Of an inyestl-
CATION; but, as all tile mombora Of tho Boarl
who we're preBont, with ono exception, voted for
the job, 1t ia clear that somebody besides tho
County Commissioners should do the inyestt-
eating.

We print In another column tettor from the
Hon. John Wentworth on tile proposed ropoal
Of tho land-tax. While agreeing in tho main
with The Tn1nuSE's reasoning and favoring its
plan, ho suggests that the experiment DO tried
Of t3rst repoalng tho tax on land actually under
taxation. Tho objection to such all oxperi-
ment is twofold: ~ 1t contravenos wise
provision Of tho State Constitution which for
btdB tho Legislature releasing any part
Of the State from fair proportion
Of tn1ation, and, therefore, (2) requires con-
atitutional amendment. The proposition Of The
TnlnuaE to repeal the land-tax altogether, aud
substitute therefor another moans Of raising
tho rovonue provided In tho Constitution, neither
takes away tho check against discrimination In
taxes nor demands any change IN the organic
law Of tho State. 1t is not safe to inaug,1rate
any experiment which will throw tho burden OF
taxation on ono portion Of the community to tho
relief Of another portion.

an angry alteration took place between orton

in an action Of slandor, to know the exact words
used by Orton aud Downor in q singlo sentence

the iniquity and the Troasury officials RESPONSE
b[ity for it became known, aud in tho
operation gave the excellent Secretary Rich

with Richardson is according to h1r. Beck, that
he Is merely honest. Honesty is desirable in ono
who controls the finances Of q grcat nation, but
will not ftanl for intelligence and familiarity
with the duties Of tho Office. Aseoretary should
be competent as we'll IS honest, and this a1r.
Richardson is not. At the close Of Mr., peck's

with proviso that the United States shall not
be liable for any expenses attending the Expoa-

to an invitation to dinner, with the reservation
that each person should pay his own footing.
So 1t is, and foreign nations will doubtloss avail
themselves Of the privilege which all men enjoy
Of rejecting diangroeable invitations. Mr. Ed

THE 0AUBE OF TIE ARKANBAB REBELLION. !.
It waB railroad bonds. Those innecuritloH,
Which havo feeood 80 many people and kept 30
many religious paporn In funds, wero 1t tho bot
tom Of the Brooks revolt Hero wo SEQ another
proof OF tho total depravity Of everybody and
everything connected with railroadI
In 1868, tho Arkansas Legislature submitted
to the popular voto a Law directing the loan Of
State bonds at tho rate Of $4,000 per milo to
railroads that Ind lad Government land.grauta,
and to all othera at tho rate Of $4,000 por mile.
The people ratified tho enactment. At loast
tho men who counted tho votes aaid 40, and as
two-thirda Of Arkansas WAS then diafranchfsod,
theBnying wasporhaps truo one. The Governor,
tue Secretary Of State, and tho Commissioner
OF 1ntornal improvements wero charged with
tho execution Of tho law. Clayton waB Goy-
erDor. He was heavily interested In tho Littlo
Rock, Pine Bluffs Il New Orleans and tho h1H~
eissippi, Ouachita l. Ted River Railroads. The
two got ss,1so.ooo. Tho first got S700, 900 mora.
IN bonds, undor second law. The ArkauBas
Central, which was, until worry recently, untlor
tho control Of Senator Doraoy, received eo0o 900.
OF tho first OF the three roads, 80 miles hayo
been built; OF tho second, 10; Of tho third,
48. Nobody, knows what has beon done with tue
81, 4,780,000 Of Slate bonds their managers have
received. Thcy hayo taBued an unknown
quantity Of tlrat-mortgago bonds and hare
received large county subscriptions besides.
Tho managers hare grown rich. Clayton and
Dorsey have bought Senatorial seats. The
roads haro remained pororty-stricsen.
Under tho lar of 1868, tho railroads OF Arkan-
sas would have received 912,000, 900. Those in
Which the "men inside politics -" thieves n
would be shorter way Of putting this phrase
wero interested got their share of the plundor 1T
once. Tho claims Of tho others wero still In
aboyance when Baxter was counted In ~ Gov
ornor. He refused to make any more loans
until the uso made Of tho $4,000, 600
OF honda alroady issued had been investl-
gated. An attempt was mado by Clayton,
Dorsey 4: Co. to secure the passage OF
q law to aasume these bonds aud relieve tho rail-
roads from all liability for thom. Baxter an.
AouAteU tAAk LIZ "olAo feso tue pl1's anu ~ pro-
vented it's passage. The broach began. Two
weeks before Brooks got his snap- judgment, the
President Of Senator Dorsoy'a railroad applied
for $500. 600 in bonds. He was promptly refused.
Brooks WIS interviewed, and promised to let the
railroads plunder the State II their managers
would let him rule tho State. The bargain was
made. Both parties to 1t did their best to carry
it out. But Louisiana had been warning tc
President Grant. Tho expected Federal aid waf
withheld. BROOKS, Clayton. Dorsey, aud the
railroads went down together.
