The amount would be more than enough
to print the laws in pamphlet form, and
send copy to every voter in the State.
There is no utility in such publications at
all, for laws of public concern are published
by the papers as news items. 1t will be
noted that although the law specifies Zone
newspaper" in each county where there
are two Democratic journals the patronage

nest should not disagree. The last Legis-
lature also paid these papers SO, 1852 30 for
publishing the list of defaulters to the
State. 1t appears that it cost moro to
publish the list in the Gazette than in the
Sun, the former getting $500 for an adver-
tisement for which the San got $297.60.
1t has not been generally known that the
advertising rates of the Gazette were higher
than those of the Sun. The county papers,
with few exceptions, charged $237.
In this little "bill of particulars" our
worthy neighbor across the way was "sub-
sidized eleren hundred and sirtytt too DOL
lars, to which must be added tue hundred
and thirty seren dollars. The latter for
publishing the list of Democrat defaulters
in the Comptroller's Report. To the above
two substituting" items seoenteen hundred
and fifty dollars, or Whereabouts must be
added for printing and advertising for the
party in Cecil county, which will make
THREE THOUSAND ONE HUNDRED AND
FoRTY-NINE DOLLARS OF DEMOCRAT PAP,
in one year.
Can any reasonably sane man expect our
worthy and consistent neighbor to preach
anything else but "reform within the
party" and extol the "principles of the
Democrat party" or counsel swift damna-
ton to Radcalism' Propped up on one
side by "the principles of the Democrat
party" and "subsidy" pillar on the
other weighing Mirtyone hundred and
forty nine-dollars, it is unreasonable to
suppose that any Democrat newspaper
could get out of line-Susquehanna bridge
could not swerve supported by two such
substantial props as these.
The point we wish to make in publishing
these figures from the State and county
county records, is this: When The Demo-
crat breaches "Radical =" total depravity,
and the purity of the "principles of the
Democrat party" we suggest that it is not
dsinterested witness, and unworthy of
entire belief. We do not wish to convey
the impression that the laborer is not
worthy of his hire, or that this money was
not all worthily earned, but even the ass
hath Partially for his masters crib, and
it would be against human nature not to
have great love for party "principles y
which yield such handsome income.
