CAMPAIGN AMmUNI rION.

The Austin Reveille, in an article on
ahs probable expense of the frauds in

$1,0OO,OO0. and asks why the country

That is rather singular question for a
Republican, or in fact any other

tanned what the Investigation will. cost
the Government, as the expense de-
ponds entirely upon the extent to
which it will be carried. !, The amount
OF campaign ammunition it is likely 10

In the negotiations between the court
Of England and Spain, King James the
First then at Theobalds, was one ..day
much vexed at missing some important
papers which he had received relative to
the marriage of his son to the Spanish
princess. On recollection, he was per-
suaued that he had given them to the
care of his old servant, Glib, Il Scotsman,
who was one of the gentlemen of the
:tcd-chamber. Glib, on, being called, de-
clared humbly and firmly that no such
papers had ever been given to his care,
which so enraged the king that he kicked
him as he bent down before him.
''S,r," exclaimed Glib, instantly rising,
