He was Pennsylvania Democrat, and he
entered the church for the first time in twenty
years. The minister attracted his attention
for some time with his earnest discussion, but
when he struck severe blow at Pontius Plate
for his lack of courage, the old man jumped
up, seized his hat, and shot through the en-
trance like meteor in search of resting
place. He thought the clergyman was
abusing Pontius Poilette, the candidate for
Treasurer.

Notice that man coming yonder! Wa tch
him close! See There is smile on his face;
it broadens, deepens, and breaks into radi-
ant grin. Now his hand is extended; it is
eagerly reached forth to grasp another hand,
of-not a..long-lost brother-but of a voter of
whom he wishes to curry favor, for he is a
candidate for Office, with a close contest
ahead.

Mary Temple, of New Haven, died in the
bloom of her girlhood, and as they bore the
tender form away to the tomb, her little
black-and-tan Fido hung his head and placed
himself in the procession of mourners. As the
clods of earth ratified upon the coffin, Fido
mingled his own voice of sorrow with the sad
music of the clashing turf; and when the grave
was full and rounded, be threw himself upon
its mound, and would not be drive or coaxed
away. Three days have passed away since the
child was buried, and still the faithful little
creature keeps his vigils, waiting for his tiny
mistress's return.

The Cincinnati Enquirer has been playing
the role of a very silly character during the
Ohio campaign, and as the contest deepens its
stock of foolish views seems to increase accord

great many of the Ohio infationists, who
have been led astray by the silyer-toned elo-
quence and deceitful logic of the Democratic
orators, are tickling themselves with the be-
lief that real imitation will take place imme-
diately after Aliens success, provided he is
successful. In their minds eye, visions of
greenbacks more plentiful than the autumnal
leaves in the forest float by in quick success
sion; but they will pass away to dream and
shadow, and be classed with the things that
were. These deluded people, who are about
to be inveigled into the snare of the willy dsma-
gogues, ought to be familiar with this past, so
that they may not be disappointed, should
Allen be elected, by not finding "mouey more
plentiful" as predicted.

William Allen, the well-known cotemporary
of Noah and the honored originator of the
script of Egypt, is entertaining the people of
Ohio with very many things of funny nature.
He goes around with his hand snugly folded
beneath his coattails, and talks to the people
of the manifold wrongs that are heaped
upon them by the Republican party, telling
them that in its removal from power they will
come directly into the possession of an equal
portion of the wealth of Ohio; that each man
shall have part Of all the luxuries, such as
tobacco, whisky and beer, and take from his
neighbor some of the property which he hath,
n order TO equalize things all around. This
must be exceedingly funny to. the Ohio loafer
ard imbecile, but it can hardly be pleasant
music to the ears of the taxpayer. And when
the day of Olbillallan shall come to pass, the
taxpayer and pauper shall both sit down to
the same table and enjoy the rights of plumber
which the imitation theory of Fog horn implies.
The Sun has put on breaks in its daily at
tacks on the President. For three years past
it has held the unenviable position of first
slanderer and general dirty tilker, and from
all that the outside world could CLEAN, seemed
to glory in its perverse deeds. But change
has apparently come over the vision of the
old mans dream, and he reluctantly folds the
Infamous banner he has delighted to wave and
sinks into q refreshing rest. And when the
old man did this his readers sighed relief, and
hoped that the monotonous bugbear was gone
forever. But we cannot tell what the morrow
may bring forth, for the mysteries of the fu-
ture are penetrated alone with prophetic vision,
and the hopes thus created were blasted in o
day. Just as soon as the venerable press
pirate relieves himself of this disreputable
feature in his editorial department, Young
Scrumptious, of the Tribune, caught up the
strain, and has considerably elaborated on the
original, making from day to day display
of TRADE and abuse which would far better
become the columns of the Police Gazette than
those of the journal founded by the great
philosopher as a representative of truth and
justice.
THE New York Graphic gives the following
lucid exposition of the finances: ''What is the
matter with the world financially" remarks
Mr.. Green to Squire Brown. "Here is distress
in Canada amongst the banks and merchants.
1t is the same all over Europe. Explain it,
Brownp' Says Brown: 'Do you remember
the story, Green, of the Irish gentleman who
told his servant to dig hole and bury all the
rubbish in his yardl The servant asked what
he was to do with the dirt from the hole he
should exeavate. 'Faix,' said the fine oldgen-
t,eman, cant ye dig hole big enough to bury

RFVFNnE FRAEnS-

Frauds upon the revenue are just now
the subjects of numerous articles by the
press of the country. 1t is noticeable
however, that the great metropolitan press
is slow to denounce those delinquents who
are the perpetrators of the crimes. 1t
speaks in general terms of illicit distillers
and of some obscure conspirators who have
smuggled silks into the country invoiced as
hosiery, but it is at the same time careful
to inform US that none of the New York
merchants who have received and sold the
contraband goods on commission are impli
Gated in knowledge of the criminal charac-
ter of the property. This will do very
well to tell to the unsophisticated people
who have been swindled, but it will not be
credited by those who are acquainted with
the methods of transacting the distilling,
compromising and importing business H.
licit traffic cannot be safely carried forward
without the knowledge and connivance of
the managers at every point, from the pur-
chase of the materials to the sales of the
products to the consumers.
The Eastern merchants who make the
advances on highwines consigned to them
from the West are bound to know whether
these consignments are contraband, for the
arrangement is usually made in advance

EACH successive budget of information
from Cuba strengthens the belief that the
Spaniards are unable to cope with the
growing cause of the Insurgents. Death
by disease has thinned the ranks Of the
former while the latter, inspired by certain
indications of success, have redoubled their
efforts. Meanwhile the sympathies of the
American people, always generously en-
listed in behalf of the Patriots, have re-
Gel we'd new life in the action of the Lower

Civil serviee Commissioner Eaton Taken to

Especial Dispatch 10 the Chicago Trib1ne.l
Dormsn b. Eaton, in his paper upon the civil
service, read at Detroit, does great injustice to
some Of the Government Departments. 1t is not
true as TO some of the Departments that they
have returned to the old detestable spOils sys-
TEN. In the Treasury Department the civil SER
vice system, exactly as it exiSted under the Pres
dency Of Mr.. Eaton, still exists, with the single
exception that the competitive feature has been
abandoned. In all other respects the conditions
of admission, the rules the procedure Of examina-
tfOD, the texts and the marking are exactly the
same as they were under he civil service board.
The new rules, which have been promulgated In
the Treasury Department since what has been
known the abolition oil the civil service system,
are identical in substance and In language, with
tie single exception of the competitive feature.
There is board of examiners appointed under an
old law, by which every candidate for admission
to the Treasury must submit to q certain eKamin-
alton. The examination which is now a condition
precedent to admission to the Treasury Is based
upon positive statute, which cannot be said Of
