How Much Would They Pocket 2

The 81 100000 suit by the people
against VIM. NJ. Tweed, which had been
set down for trial yesterday, has been
put over until june 5th, when il will be
called in the General Term room. The
peoples suit for $6,O00,000 against
Peter b. Sweeney has been set down
for the same date. So says Q New
York paper. This is the money stolen
from the people by Democratic officials,
in one city of the nation, by two men.
If sIl the charges against Republican
officials, made BY an unscrupulous par
tisan press we're proved to be true, they
would not equal one hundredtb part Of
this mammoth Democratic steal. If the
reform Democracy can pocket 81 ,OOO,-
600 in one city, how many millions
would they pocket Il they had access
to the treasury of the United States !

They Can Never Pay What They
Have Cost,

The Confederate House Of Congress
is grumtllng at the mail facilities in
the North, and says that the Post Office
Department should be made to pay ex-
penses, by cutting off certain mail privi-
leges that are enjoyed now BY sections
having a certain amount of population.
The truth of the situation is, that mail
facilities should not be lessened, and il
a change is made, it should be in the
lessening of rates of postage. 1t should
not be made a burden on the country,
but, like the Common School System,
it should be as near free as can be.
The transmission of mail matter among
the people is the greatest channel Of
communication that exists among US,
aud, consequently, is one Of the great
est civilizing mediums of the age. In
stead of cutting it down, it should be
increased.
But if the Confederates in Congress
are taken at their word, what becomes
of their situation The carrying of
the mails in the South never paid e1-
penses. If they were required to pay
up, or do without mail 10 the future as
delivered by the Government, the Gov
ernment would stop just now, for they
can never pay what they have cost.
