The New York Bulletin makes this startling
estimate Of the losses to property and trade
b, corrupt government AFTER allowing for
the inevitable addition to the taxes arising
from war expenditures, it may be safely estl-
mated that for the last ten years the taxes, in-
cludlng all kinds, have been s#elled by corrupt
political Influences at the rate of $3.50, 900 600
q year. IF this estimate be correct We have paid
within one decade 81, 500, 600, 000-an amount
sufficient to extiuguish the whole national debt
and equal to four years net earnings of the

The New York Herald, which has been
among the foremost in exposing the late frauds,
says:
There were scandals about Buchanan and
Floyd grave enough in their way, but Buchan-
an, we believe, never went beyond suggesting
that good Democrats should be employed in the
Philadelphia Navy Yard, and the sin of Floyd
Was political-not personal-tresson and not
corruption. We have no idea that the zeal
moral of the Belknap scandal will be developed
by cloudipg it with cant Nor will the admis
tration be permitted by an indignant public
opinion to send Belknap cut into the wilderness:
a. scapegoat while the Bsbcocks, the Shep'
herds end the Deanos remain to offer up sacri-
ace in the temple and thank the Lord that the
sins have departed from the sanctuary"

A CARD.

FeUoa- citizens of Creme County,:
Rumors hay ny gained currtn,
cy, through various portions of
the county, preiudiclal to the wei
fare Of the party whose interests |
hayebeenchostn to represent have
deemed thi, statement necessary.
1t is rot my purpose, in this card,
to enter into detail touching the
many issues Of vital imporrau e
that are now agitating the public
mind. Suffice it TO say that, in be-
half of the people and their is,
sues, and in behalf of honest la
bur, I viii always stand opposed
to such legislation as is oppressive
to tn masses and injurious to their
interests. When a just reward is
given to labor and, the labor
ing industries of the country sucr
coed, and capital is no longer in
the asceudency, then our. country
will be prosperous, Chosen by a
large majority Of the Democ
racy of Greene county to rep.
resent their interest through the
present campaign, | have deemed
this, not a personal contest. but a
contest for the party and its prin'
ciples. Through the conflict of
opposing persons and opposing
parties [ will contend to the end.
Politically / I'm, and always have
been, a Democrat, and any state
ment TO the contrary is IA perver-
sion Of my principies-a caiumny
that retributive justice will burn
upon the soul Of its authors.
Then, fellow citizens, 60 to the
polls on Tuesday the 7th day of
November, 1876, and there, as
Ireemen, render your own Impair
tial decision at the ballot-box OF
your country, from which decision
there is no appeal.

PARK S STATEMENT ABOUT HIS SAL
AIRY MISREPRESE TED.
Some persons charged that his
salary had been too much. Mr..
Park said that his first salary was
fixed by the County Court and
that lie did not ask that amount,
and that when he came, after his
second election, to tell the Court
what he was willing to serve for,
he only asked $500. These are
the facts as the afidavits below
will show,
TIE Intelhgencer says "the
truth of the matter is this He
park made an agreement with a
number Of the magistrates thai if
they would re-eiect him be would

We, the undersigned magistrates,

certify that no such contract as

WI EN- TIE REBEL DEBT WILL
BE DUE.

In his speech at Chicago. Sen.
ator Doolltle ridtled the campaign
orator who insists hat Democrats
will pay tn rebel debt. He said I:
Now the rebel iebt could not
be assumed by the Government
except by the votes of the menu
bers of Congress. The first thing
a member of Congress did, when
he took his seat, was to swear TO
support the Constitution of tho
United States, which, in so many
words, prohibited the assuming by
the Government of debts incurred
Ia f%urtheriDg the rebellion. The
fact was, there was no rebel debt.
This debt, by act of the Confeder.
ute Congress, was made payable
two years after the United States
