THE finishing touches are now being
added 10 the great Bourbon back-down.
THE ex-Khedive is "biger" man than
JoHNGEE. He dictated his own successor
when he was forced to abdicate.
WESTON was born in Rhode Island, but
like other notables from that State he was
compelled to seek room outside of its limits
to make an exhibition Of himself.
THE Greenbackers up in Maine will, it
seems, follow the example set by their fell
low-partisans out in Ohio. They do not
propose to be used as tail to the Demo-
cratic kite.
Mr.. ATKINS is chronic blunderer. He
persists in reporting appropriation bills to
the House as from the Appropriations Com
mittee, when all the world knows they are
from the Bourbon Caucus.
THE Republicans of Maine have diggcd
the grave, the Greenbackers will furnish
the corpse, the Democrats will supply the
mourners, and the funeral will take place
in the sad and leafless autumn.
1T begins to appear that there was some
thing wanting in President HAYES call of
this extra session of Congress. 1t seems
that 'the dignity" of that body was not in-
cluded, or, if it was, it did not respond.
THE Pennsylvania Greenbackers will hold
their convention at Altoona July 15 prox.
At the very ontset they propose to locate
themselves as near as possible to tho alti-
tude Of GILDERoY's kite, which is their ul-
innate destination.
THE Moonshiuers, sBull-dozers and, in
short, all the more active and public spir-
tied citizens Of the Democratic South are
unanimously in favor of closing the Fed
eral courts. This fact explains the present
attitude Of the Bourbon bicyclsts, astride
the judicial bill
THE soft-money Democrats were nearly
if not quite, ready to call Senator BAYARI
traitor But BAYARD was too much fol
them, and they were compelled to swallow
their wrath. They will have similar dose
TO gulp down when their national conven.
ton meets next year, e.. ..s.
THE Southern Democratic papers are con.
gratulating themselves that SHERMAN,
oflice-holders in the South will oppos,
the denomination of General GRANT in tn,
next Republican convention. They proba
bly, know more about this matter than tht
alleged oflice-holders themselves.
ONE restraint upon the Democrats in Con
gress which will prevent them from prolong
ing this extra session much farther resides
in the fact that such course would pleas,
their Republican opponents. They arr
learning, now that it is almost too late t,
take lessons from the enemy
Now it is broadly limited that MURAG
HALsTEAD has once again ruined his chances
to be Secretary of War lie has gone of
and violently caused himself to be reelected
president Of his own society For the Sup
preston Of Ice Water" The temperance
reiormers among his supporters are aghast
He who dHllics is bastard, and he whC
doubts is damned This remark, made BY
Mr.. BLACKBURN some time ago, seems Il
have been almost lost in the echoes of the
Bourbon caucus. We rescue it therefrom
however, for the purpose Of reminding Mr.
b. that it is almost time to make up his lis

services Of that rag-baby Zulu, SAM CAREY
to ossegai him. but CAREY's spear failed t.
penetrate deep enough to do any in

10000 votes to EWING and RICE.
BAYARD is known out in Ohio as q ram

not, therefore, set well on the stomachs 0
the Ewingles 1t places the party in
very inconsistent attitude to be recorded a

aud a rag-baby nurse elsewhere.
ANDREW JACKSON denounced Nullhca
