CLEVELAND, O., June 4, 1874.
Cleveland Is thrifty lakeside city,-not &c
grimy md picturesque rs pittsburg, which ff
tho most appalling and Dautesquo city in tho
Western World,-n kind Of inhabited Vesuyius,
But Cleveland has much Of tho snmo quality and
sosaossiona nB Pittsburg, moro orderly placod to
the oyo. It's furnaces and rolling-mills, oil-ro-
Aneries and nolsy industries. arc set Off from

No proximato towns differ moro than Pitts

THE PlTTHDUna POLITICIANS
look as II they never went to sleep, aud mover
quito woke up. They babble their caueus-tricks
and aeorets aR If thcre was something 1audab1o
In small olicancry. They puff this or thas petty
1eador loudly, got generally doepon tho impression
that he mist bo q low fellow. They arc entirely
uonAdential, aud botray an amazing want Of
knowledge Of tho general respect aud convic-
&ions Of mon. Thoy have no capacity to estoom
their public State folks for moral, just, or in
tello0tnai attributes, and run In droyes, aud
waste much that they pilfor. 8!
