Democrats haye assumed the general correctness
of Mr. Thurman's figures, which made out that
prior TO 1860 the annual cost of maintaining the
Government under Democratic rule was 81 81 per
head. and that the annual cost from 1869 to 1876,
under Republican rule, was S3 40 per head. The
statistical officers of the Treasury Department have
recently tabuated the expenditures Of the Govern
ment since It's foundation, and this shows that the
annual cost per capita for eight years PRIOR 10 1861
was So go in gold, ana that the annual cost per
capita from 1869 to 1876, less those growing ont
of the war, was 81 20. This puts new face on
Humans exposure" and it is Official and opeu
TO Inspection it is not likely to be questioned. But
this still embraces vast sums directly chargeabe to
the war-such as the need of increased clerical
service in the Departments, the addition OF new
bureaus, the increase of the Army, etc. The ex-
penses directly growing ont of the war, and which
are certainly chargeable to the Democratic party
are thus tabuated:

The Zulu campaign has now resolved itself
into determined effort to capture CetywayO,
who impersonates native hostility TO England,
and cannot be safely left at large, however
often his armies may be routed and his
kraals destroyed. General Wolseley has
offered to give Cham 5000 cattle if
he makes his brother prisoner, but CetywayO
affords him no opportunity to earn that liberal
reward The prospects of peace are therefore
Unexpectedly clOuded, and may be less
promising than the general reports from the
seat of war would indicate.

The flank movement in Commissioner
Wheeler's case yesterday places the Tllden
politicians in a very painful dilemma. There
has been no question from the first that the
object sought TO be attained by removing Mr..
Wheeler was political, whatever the nature of
the ostensible cause might be and there has
been as little question that the object of the
hurried proceedings just at this time was that
the Police Board might be recognized in the
Tilden interest before the day already APP
pointed for the selection OF inspectors of
election. The Mayor has now been enjoined
from any further proceedings in the case at
present by a writ of prohibition, issued by
Judge Van Brunt and holding until the 18th
inst. Now the inspectors of election are TO be APP
pointed, according to the determination already
announced. on the 18th inst, and the Mayors

Andrew Tracy was executed at
Smcibport, Pa, Dcc.4, for tbesmur-
der of his cousin, Mary Reilly, who
refused to marry him. The murder
was cold blooded one. The poor
girl was shot down in the street be-
cause she was sensible enough TO de.
cline marrying man related TO her.
The old plea OF insanity was urged
and with some reason loo, for il is
very doubtful whether a sane man
would desire to marry his own rela-
tive. While awaiting his doom the
murderer alternately prayed and
wrote poetry.
