The Radical party have been prey
ing upon the country since the close
of The war. The catalogue Of crimes
that may be laid to their door are too
numerous to recite. Prominent
among them was the Credit Mobelier
fraud which involved and ruined
Colfax and host Of other leadersin
that party. The present Vice-Presi-
dent escaped on the ground that the
stocIr was given to his wife, and not
TO him, when Anfes placed it "where
Il would do the most good" Then
came the Chorpending fraud, the
Secor fraud, the Sheppard ring fraud,
the Sanborn frauds, Laundelet Will

THEY ARE ALL ALIKE.

A young man, son OF Well-to-uo
merchant of Topeka, Kansas, had
the misfortune to become deeply en-
amored of a lady, and after short
courtship, proposed and was accept
ed. But what was his surprise one
evening when about entering the
parlor with all the unceremonious
freedom of lover, at discovering
his inamorata upon sofa, her arms
around the neck Of a youth, and her
face in such close proximity to his
as to convince our hero that matters
we're fearfully in earnest. In rage
and modification he rushed home

est sister squeezing to kill a young
disciple of Blackstone.
Nearly frantic at such disclosures
among people whom he had believed
to be honest, he made bold dash
for the barn, running directly up
on his mother kissing the family ply
sician, who had stolen upon her as
she was looking after the poultry.
This was too much. With groan
the young man turned undiscovered
away, resolved to pass the night will
his grief beneath the shelter of an
other roof
The morning encouraged him
however, and, dew-drenched anc
sorrowful, he returned home, whel
] his mothsr, with true maternal solici
tude, questioned him rs to his sac
looks, whereupon he related the in
constancy Of his fair betrothed. H,
received in reply the gratifying in
telligence that she was a good-foi
nothing, miserable huzzy, and b
must not speak to or notice her again

"Not all? What can there b

enviable position than that occupied by
Messrs Foster, Phelps and Potter, the
Subcommittee that lately visited that
citv-,New Orleans.D
OF course! From this papers stand
point the position Of these gentlemen Is
very unenviable; though two out OF
the three were members of the Inter-
Oc,a,Is party, they were honest; they took
testimony Oh both sides, and enough 10
ill eighty-fve pages of foolscap, and IN
summing up, they presented an honest
report to the effect that the whole LouSi-
ana business was Il deliberate and illegal
outrage
And another reason why their position
is regarded from this source rs unenvi"-
bic is that they did this without receiving
u cent of money for it. Had they been
paid $4,000 or So, their position would
have been rs enviabIc as il they had re-
cciycd this much for advocating subsidy
or something of that sort.
