II bACh 10 IHE OLD hNDm Il nm
From recent Speech by Mr., Doolittle Of Wis.
The Presidents house, gardens, con-
servatories and stables are all furnished
and kept in perfect order, in all their de-
tails, at the public expense; stewards,
doorkeepers, and band of music for all
public receptions are furnished without
dollars expense to the President. All
the furniture, carpets, beds, tables, to the
minutest thing which convenience or
luxury can desire are furnished by the
Government. The whole establishment
is also warmed and lighted throughout; ;
all this at an expense TO the public Treas
ury of 100000 or $4,000.
But you may ask me, What, then, does
the President pay out of his salary2
He pays his cooks, the walters upon
his table, the driver Of his carriage, and
the servants who wait upon his family
and his guests he pays for what is eaten
and drank at his table. By custom, it is
expected of the President to give several
State dinners and in the course of the
year to entertain each member of Con-
gress, the Judges Of the courts, the for
tlHIl NlllllHLtIht lllb AdDlllGbt anu
ally distinguished strangers-in al, prob
ably five hundred persons. If such din.
ners should cost $40 for each person, S..
600 would cover that expense. OF the
$4,000 remaining $4,000 ought to pay
his other family expenses. That would
leave him $4,000 per annum clear.
Now, what does experience show Le
me state some instances: Mr.. Polk, o
Tennessee, land while Mrs. Polk, that &C
complished lady, was in the White Housl
it wa never more popular), saved abou
$4,000 out of four years salary-abou
$4,000 year.
Mr.. Pierce did the same. Mr.. Buchan
an did neatly the same. Mr.. Lincoln
when elected President, was worth abou
$4,000; and his estate, upon his death
was about $4,000. 1t must be borne il
mind, too, that Mr.. Lincoln received hi
in greenbacks, when they were not owe
sixty cents in gold, and when prices wer
the highest.
20 Mr.. johnson saved from his salary, !
three years and half, $20,00 or $1,000
and that, too, when Lreenbacks were sti
at a discount of twenty-five per cen

of Mr.. Johnson's public course, all pa

SIGNS Of a revival Of business are OBJ
servable in different parts Of the coun-
try. There is decidedly improved
tone in the Eastern dry goods market
and a number Of mills which have been
running on two-thirds time for moths
past have resumed full operations, whilst
others are preparing to do so. The
news from the west is also Of a more
favorable character. The National
Dry Goods Reporter says: F
At Chicago. St. Louis, Louisville and
Cincinnati there is an active demand
for money for business purposes. The
gtain trade appears to have a new i'm
p lse. The receipts and deliveries in
Chicago last week reaching to some
thing near the figures at corresponding
periods in former years. The south is
harvesting her cotton crop with an ac-
tiyity which shows that the Granger pol
icy in holding back produce tor higher
prices has made very little headway in
that part Of the country. The proceeds
are put into immediate general circula
ton; and the money received for the
crop is devoted to wiping out individual
and local indebtedness. Even at tpres
ent prices planters receive good profit
The general outlook, then, is not unfa
vorable. It is true there is nothing par
ticularly bright or attractive in the i'm
, mediate future, but at the same tint
there is nothing particularly depressing
All our industrial interests. without ex
ception, are in a sound condition, AM
this encomium could perhaps now b
more truthfully applied to the genera
finances Of the country than At any foE
mer pariOd in our history. sPa

the milk of these COWS she made all the

tbe icecream used in the Presidents
family during ,heterm. When she went
home she shipped these cows to Tennes-
see. Is it any wonder, ladies', that Mrs.
Patterson received the first premium on
butter at their late fair last fall?

THE PRINCE OF WALES LAsT.-His
Royal Highness has been detected in many
an act which has startled the Queen. The
last of which is said to be the ordering of
100000 worth of tickets for the Public
Library of Kentucky. Her Majesty, it is
stated, did not object to his buying liber
ally, but in the present condition of the
Princes finances, she thought 100000
worth was too much for him to invest. 1t
is asserted that he insisted on sending his
order to Governor Bramlette, assuring his
loyal mother that he knew what he was
about, for that as So, 100000 was to be dis
tributed to the ticket holders on November
30, and in such gifts as $3.50, 900, 800, 900,
&C., he would have splendid chance at
one Of these splendid prizes, and thus, cas-.
lily pay his debts.

Seventh District Temperance Alliance.

PORT DEPOSIT, October Sth, 1874
At meeting of the Executive Commit
tee of the Seventh District, Cecil County
Temperance Alliance, the following declar-
alton Of principles and constitution were
adopted
We, the citizens of the Seventh Election
District of Cecil county, Md, subscribe
and will be governed by the following
declaration of principles:
WHEREAS, The sale of intoxicating
liquors is destructive of the best interests
of society and works evil, and only evil,
therefore the State by law ought not to
sanction, but prohibit it.
The argument in favor of license laws on
the ground of revenue to the State is falla-
cious, because it can be readily proved that
for every dollar received by the State for
license to sell liquor, the citizens of Cecil
country are taxed three dollars for cost of
paupers, criminal proceedings, &c, which
are clearly traceable in great majority of
cases to the sale of intoxicating liquors.
We should put forth every lawful effort
to remove the Intoxicating cup beyond
the reach of our youth and thus save them
from becoming pests to friends and society.
We believe our government recognizes
the right of the majority to rule, and there
fore ask the Legislature to grant the privi-
lege to the legal voters of Cecil county of
deciding whether the sale of Intoxicating
liquors shall be licensed in our county.
While we do not desire a third party, yet
we cannot consistently vote for any man
opposing Local Option, and pledge our
selves not to support any man for the Leg
islature who will not give us the assurance
that he will favor the passage of such a
law.
Therefore we form ourselves into an ALI
ance and adopt the following constitution:
1t shall be known as the Alliance of the
Seventh District, Cecil county, Md.
The officers of the Alliance shall consist
of President, two vice Presidents, Re-
cording Secretary, Corresponding Secre-
tary, Treasurer and Executive Committee
of five persons, who shall discharge the
duties devolving upon those holding such
offices.
The object of the Alliance will be to hold
public meetings, distribute temperance lit
erature and use every endeavor to show the |
enormity of the present license system and |
the desirableness of Local Option law.
Any person can become a member of
this Alliance by signing this declaration of
principles and constitution.
The meetings of this Alliance shall be
held at such time and place as may be
decided on by the Executive Committee.
This Constitution may be altered or
amended by a vote of two thirds of the
members present at any stated meeting.
By order of
EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE

EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE.

IS Governor Thomas E. Bramlette, man.
ager of the Gift Concerts in aid of the Pub
lie Library of Kentucky, of Louisville in
that State, will do us favor not to tempt
us more with advertisements of that insti-
tuition. The laws of the State forbid the
publication of such advertisements, and do
not discriminate between one of this kind,
which is honest and for good purpose,
and shyster concerns. We know that some
one will. on the 31st of November next,
bag $3.50, 000 and others smaller sums, and
that the money will be promptly paid, as
has been the case in the four preceding
ones; but the law will not allow US to pub
lish their advertisements. Keep them away
