WE recollect an incident narrated at
some period in the history of the world of
an officer with handful of men, who oc-
cupied position near he apex of hill,
and who was beleaguered by vastly SUI
peror force. He resorted to the expedent
of marching his men around and around the
hill continuously, so rs to give his force the
appearance of very con siderable army,
hoping in this way to appall the foe and pre-
vent an attack. The scratchersn y in New
York who have taken the name of "the
Republican Central Campaign Club" are
now maneuvering ON like hypothesis as
the representatives Of Republican senti-
ment, but no one will be frightened Or con-
vinced thereby of their potency. They are
only marching around the hill for parade
and show.

SENATOR ALLISON is credited with the
proposition that the President ofthe United

proposition prevail the appointment would
fall upon the next President, as three years

exercised.

WHEN we consider how much of the
money spent for District improvements
goes directly to take care of the comfort of
congressman, it appears strange that there
should be such difficulty in keeping a
quorum present when District appropria-
ton bill is under discussion On the other
hand, when we consider that the people of
the District have no votes, the wonder is
that anybody is found to attend to their
wants ut all.
