POLITICAL NOTES.

Has anybody seen a happy Democrat recentlyY
Tho session closes, as it opened. with Becs mouth
in full eruption.
If Congressman are sick Of Congress how do tbev
think the country feelsi
The Democrats should devote the Summer 10 rails
ing new crop Of brains.
Keep 1t IN mind that the extra session has cost the
country round million.
The President has "defedr Congress again.
Springer What are you going TO do about itf
Veto No. hits the BOurbons in the same old spot
which Is sore they clap their hands on it and run.
There is not loud call for further exhibitions Of
Bourbon craftsmanship as the curtain falls upon
the second act.
A Democratic "organ" in Cleveland exclaims:
'The Democratic party is as patriotic as it eyer
was" Alas this is too true!
When the refrigerating ship has been built, Chal.
meFs, Blackburn, Beck and Springer should be en-.
cased IN it and sent to sea without chart OF com.
pass.
The kicking and squirming among the Democratic
brethren in this State, Tilden prepares 70 capture
the party again. Is unusually violent Their zeal
Tor reform seems to have cooled.
Every Republican Convention that meets this
yearwIl be likely 10 pass resolution compliments

In Nebraska is said to be the quaint and aconic
epitaph over the grave OF citizen suddenly de-
ceased: He Twisted Mules Tail" 1t is UNDER
stood that che Democratic party wall adopt the same
epitaph The solid North viii SIT for the mule.
Governor Talbot has consented 10 be a candidate
for reelection in Massachusetts,. This Is bad news
for Butler, but good for the Republicans. IL VIZ
tualy settles the election IN advance, for the Cow
ernor Is even more popular than he was year ago.
The Democrats must be able TO see now what q
blunder they made when they elected Randall
speaker He was their only tal-Eolder, and they
have been smashing about promiscuously ever since
they removed hun from the floor. He isn't CO.
0ssa statesman but he IS the best MS party has IN
the House.
Colfee-Pot Wallace announces that he viii visit
Rhode Island in August and throw out his grav-
piers for election frauds Unless he proceeds very
cautiously he VIII fasten them into the scatsOi some
of those twodOllar trousers which an erudIte pam
talo0nlsts OF Providence spread over the second
Congressional District last Fall, as an lnducemcat
TO the voters to make him Congressman.
The Democratic courage rises as it becomes more
certain that the President viii not call another ex
ira session. Atkins swaggers around Washington,
declaring that the President viii not dare call Con-
gress back again, and threatening TO teach him
lesson if he should This is very cheap, and there
is likely to be great flood of similar vaporings
from the whole parry press presently. ltls an mo
comfort the poor fellows have and as their pfetJn-
SLOWS will deceive nobody there rs no reason WY
they should be InterlcIcd with.
Members Of the Congressional Republican Com
nittee say they are overwhelmed with applications
for documents bearing directly the questions
which the extra session has raised. Hundreds OF
letters are received from all parts Of the country
asking for the speeches Of Blaine, COnAlng and
Garfield and they are being sent ont in great num-
bers The committee are convinced thar the extra
session has furnished enough campaign ammunition
TO blow the Democraue party out Oh lne ntil, anu
they arc about right. J he country thoroughly ul-
de~stands the issue, and ITS cdgerneSs % READ lhe

General Robinson, chairman Of the Ohio kepuD-
lican Committee says il is now only a question OF
the size of Fosters majority. The Democrats arc
demoraIzed by Ewings nomination, and confess de-
feat by their ill-concealcd dependency They have
lost nearly the entire German vote, portion OK
their own hari-money vote and have not gained
fine National vote. Ewing virtually gives mp the
latter when he makes his opening speech without
any Soft-money rant in It. The Democratic press
