"DEATH LOVES A SHINING MARX" AND
SO DOES THE SLANDERER.-John p. ALI
mond has been doing the business of a
grocer in this city for many years, and
his store has been the best conducted ;
and the resort of the housekeepers of the
best society. He is noted for his polite
ness and attention to our. lady house
keepers. He waits upon them daily be-
hind the counter, and he is popular with
them all; and there is not one who VIII
say aught against him ON the contrary
we know that they are delighted to find
that he is to be the next Mayor, and they
congratulate him every day upon hi fair
prospect. The ladies are doing him great
service, and many of them are urging
their Republican husbands to vote Tor
him. They win do it too. Mr.. Gallagher
has not ghost of chance to be Mayor,
and he knows it, and will say SO after the
election.

No, WE THANK YoU.-The temper
ance partizan people are very kind in
Offering to take the Democratic party
under its protecting wing. But we beg
to be excused. We are anxious to have
s1uare fight with the candidates ofour old
adversary and don't want to beat the
temperance people or have them mingled
up with politics. We are opposed to
"tangling alliances" and as $500 men
(nore than half the voters of Whining
tom have already pledged themselves te
vote fer John p. Almond. the Demo
cratic nominee for Mayor, we see no pos
sible use for any interference, or making
the temperance party political part,
hence we respectfully decline allpropo'i
tions; and hold that the 8 300 voter, good
and true men, with what chose to come
to our assistance in electing true gentle
man to office are quite sufficient. Don''
mix temperance and politics.

HAD there been no Democratic nomi-
nation election on Saturday, Patrick
Collins would hardly have been murder
ei.-Repttbttcdn, J.
On Monday the murder Of Collins was
by inuendo charged by the Republican to
the account of John p. Almond, the
Democratic candidate for Mayor; now
the charge is shifted to the whole Demo-
cratic party. And the inference is clear
that the Democratic party, that opposes
all kinds of extravaganza and corruption
is required to cease holding nominations
by ballot, and allow the party of waste
and peculation to have full sway. The
vile charge wounded those who made it
in their own house, ,and now they shift it,
and throw it at every Democrat in the
city, every member of the party is sought
t. be made pdrticeps criminis to the
murder of Patrick Collins, although il
fact the fight or supposed fight in which
he is presumed to be killed, had nothing
to do with the election. They were no
politicians that were engaged in it, so fal
as we have discovered from the evidenc,
before the Coroner's inquest. The Repub
lican would do we'll to look up the evi
dence in the case of the attempted massa
ere of the Superintendent of the cit,
railway company by band of politica
satellites, friends of its candidate fo
Mayor, all of whom will attempt to vot
for Mr., Gallagher. There were abou
fifty of them engaged in this attack upo
the Superintendent; and we hope ever
one of them will be spotted and put III
der arrest when they come to vote on tn
3D. of September. The police have til
matter in hand and if they do not %
them before, should watch for them an
take them at every poll

gross injustice has been done to the as
sessed citizen and to the State, by rea-
son OF the infamous assessment laws of
this State? The very fact of my not
paying a property tax until threatened
by process of law. shows how easy il il
for a poor man without property to get
off the sessment. / have no recoliec-
ton of his having calling upon me dur
ing the year 1877 for the tax, although he

not in my case, if he had spent half as
much time in trying to collect it as he
did IN writing the communication in
your paper. Poverty is always incon-
Nement and troublesome, at least find
II so, ana presume hundreds of other
poor men will agree with me.
Very truly, yours,
q. ID. GALLAGHER.
Why this nonsence? 1t is the checklist

Mr.. Gallagher would attempt denial or
an excuse for the non-payment of his
taxes to the county, notwithstanding
the fact that the City Collector, Mr.,
Provost had had SO much difficulty to get
him to pay up his city taxes. What can

Chef, who subsists upon city offices which
he nils indifferently well, but for which
