"George, my darling George, promise
me one thing" said the young bride
of a month, as she threw her arms
around her husbands neck and gazed
anxiously into his face. :'What is it.,
precious?' he asked as he drew. her
to his bosom. Promise me, George,
dear, that you will not become a Pres
idential candidate.'' s'Why my dar-
ling that is asking good deal,' he re-
piled, and his countenance darkened.
"There are Jones, Smith, and Brown,
and, in fact, all the best people-they
are candidates. You want me to be
somebody don't you9'' eyes, yes,
George I do, I do said the young
wife, bursting into tears; ''but all the
newspapers will tell how big my feet
are, and you know people never think
that anybody's feet may be good
shaped if they are large.''

The Pacific Railroad Ring that stole
$50, ,OOO, 900, in the construction of the Pa
ciAc Railroad, is anxious to see the pub
lie credit preserved, and is solid for Hayes

Rings and bring thieves to punishment,

LOOK ITO YOUR TICKETS.

Fraudulent tickets are being distributed,
intended to entrsp the careless, and un.
thinking into voting a ticket, which will
not correct a. to many Of the candidates.
Be sure you get your ticket from such a
person, as will render it morally certain to
be correct; even then examine, and COM
pare it; then vote; but not until then. Be
sure YOU are right.

The Indian Ring thinks the public credit
would be endangered if the man who con-
victed Tweed, and reduced taxes one-halt
in his State in two years should be elected
President. The Indian Ring are solicitous
about our credit abroad, more solicitous
than they have ever been about our credit
at home. The. truth Of it is, the Indian
Ring want to go on stealing, and they know
that there is to be short stop TO that kind
of thing when President Tilden comes in.
1t is safe plan to vote on the opposite
side from the Rings.

The Whiskey Ring thinks that Dem
ocratic victory will distroy puplic credit,
and the Ring is solid for Hayes and
Wheeler. The Whiskey Ring has done
considerable in the way of impairing the
public credit, stealing somewhere in the
neighborhood Of Sloo,ooO,oo0. Is it un.
fair to assume that, if the Whiskey Ring
thought the chances Of stealing were going
to be better under Tilden than under
Hayes, they would be supporting Tilden.
The honest people Of the country will be
apt to want to get on the other side Of the
Whiskey Ring.

BIRDS OF A FEATHER.
publicans claim to be Honest and
Intelligent.

EDITOR OF HEEALp:--From the pub
lished report of the speech Of Col. Brown
10y the way who ia "Col. Brown ~ at the
City Hall, see that there is another &C.
ouaintance Of Gov. Chamberlain, besides
Mr.. Levi Bird, who, like Mr.. Anthony
Higgins, "knows him but to honor and to
love him."
Friendship and associations are matters
which depend, wholly, upon taste. "Birds
Of feather Aock together" and no one
will question the right Of Messrs Higgine
and Bird and Col Brown to indulge
theirs, by honoring and loving Lying
hound" even if he be besides a robber and
conspirator against the prosperity of his
State, ifit suits their taste to do 50.
As matter of fact, it may be stated that
Gov. Chamberlain was characterized by
some of his students at the Harvard
Law School, as "Uriah Heap" with all
that that cognomen implies; and subse-
quent developments have shown that
never was descriptive appellation more
