THE pLUSpERERs ARE COMING.

The song of THE whang Doodle" Is again
being heard in the land. The Democratic
hosts are gathering at the National Capital
enacting laws for the public welfare, when
they are only plotting to get tLeir hands
into the National Treasury and TO aggran-
die themselves and their peculiar friends
at the public expense. or course, these
Democratic statesmen and leaders have
their rctainers aud hangers-on, who follow
as closely upon the heels Of their masters as
the camp followers Of an army do upon the
commissary train, and all as hungry as the
prodigal son when he returned to his
fathers house TO partake Of the fatted calf
All these facts will conspire TO make the
present short session of Congress one Of
mere plunder. Schemes are being concocted
for this purpose with great assiduity and
enterprise. There is no limit to their ras-
cality or their numbers, so insatiate Is Dem
ocratc rapacity for the spoils Of Govern
ment patronage.
1t is foreshadowed that there is to be
great overturn of Government Departments
IL by their overthrow plunder can be secured
to reward the famished crew who hang upon
the favor Of their party. The first point Of
attack, it is intimated, is the Government
Printing Office. The buzzards who have
been roosting at the National Capital during
the past year, anxiously waiting for its car
cass, are preparing for its capture. This can
he accomplished in two ways-by changing
the law back to where IL was when relent-
less Democratic crew insisted upon confer
ring the appointing power Of the Public
Printer upon the President, that they might
wreak vengeance upon the then incum-
bent. They now propose to reverse the or
der Of things and make the Public Printer
an officer Of the Senate again after the 4th
of next March, or elective by both Houses.
This is designed to snatch that item Of pat
ronage from the President, where they in
sisted IL belonged under the Constitution,
when they sought revenge, and to confer it
upon n hungry Democrat who has been
plotting for it for twelve-month, and until
he is nearly famished for tho want Of its
emoluments.

BILE, then its demolition will be demanded
under the assumption that when 1t 8 abol-
ishcd rich contracts, like bOnanZas, will be
laying loose around that can be enjoyed by
any hungry Democrat by the mere picking
up, for under close Democratic corporation
or ring no competition from the outer world
is to be tolerated. Time will decide whether
or not our outline of the Democratic pro
gramme will be verified in history. If il
shall appear that we have not correctly ap
pretended the situation, then so much the
better, unless it shall take some other and
more 0bominable shape. The vultures arr
lowering around the National Capital, ant
the carcass must be found in some shape fol
the Democratic party is furnishing for want
OF plunder. The friends of honest admin.
is,ration in the Departments cannot be toe
vigilnnt in keeping watch over the public
T interest.
