merit, is nuisance that ought to
be abatcd. 1t is in the hands of
cobspirators organized for the over
throw of the government, and
teens with exaggerated accounts of
the magnitude and character of
their gatherings, and with false
statements touching the State, and
it suppresses all information I'M
favorable to themselves-all facts
and documents in explanation of
the defence of the Executive, in
c.uding the recent letter from tho
Governor himself, and is engrossed
in efforts to intlame the popular
feeling to falschood and misrepre-
scntation, to a pitch of mob violence
and armed resistance against pub
lie authority. 1t is, in fact, a vio-
lent engine in the service of tho
rebellionists, and is employed
wholly for the advancement of their
reasonable aims. All decent news
papers should withdraw from the
rascaIly concern, and all loyal citi-
zens should discrcdlt the truthful
ness OF its emanations.
Congressman Ladd condemned
the incendiary talk of the RepuS-

He said:

.titution and laws In any emcr-
gency l feel that l shall have tho

Stale. The people of the State
will not stand quietly by and allow
such traitorous and unjust measures
to be carried in force. You will

State must and shall be obeycd."
Dispatches from Portland, Clint
OH and Bangor, signed by hundreds
of citizens, were read synpathizing
with tho object of the meeting.

The State Expenses.
We learn the following from the
Raleigh Obsea'ver:

We learn the following from the
Raleigh Observer:
For the year ending Septem-
Der 80, 1879, the Auditor reports
the total receipts of the State to
be 1852, ,s39.95, and the total ex-
penses to be S577,658.45. The
public tax on land, property, mer-
chants, &C., paid through the
Sheriffs, amounts to $272,714.91.
There was a special tax of $122,-
1O6.39 collected for the Insane
Asylum, and ss1 ,639.65 collected
for the penitentfary. Fertilizers
paid to Treasurer Worth $40, 500,
and drummers contributed $27 400
to the public fund. Insurance
companies paid $13, ,s25.12, and the
sewing machine men $4,000"
We take it for granted that the
above figures are correct, as our
contemporary seldom eyer errs in
such matters, and it is certainly q
remarkable exhibit-that North
Carolina is spending about $25,-
900 per annum more than she is
taking in. 1t may be that there is
something behind these estimates
that we do not fully understand;
but upon Its face it is certainly an
explicit statement that we are
"taking in at the spigot and let
ting out at the bung'-a process
that never yet failed to empty a
barrel, and that must eventually
ruin a commonwealth.-Fayette-
vile Gazette.
In explanation of the excess OF
expenditures over receipts, the
Raleigh Observer says:
The Gazette will recall shat dur
ing the year alluded to the Legie-
latare was in session, and that
there are always greater expenses
for per diem, printing, lighs
wood, paper, contingencies, &C.,
IN the years when the Legislature
is in session than in other years,
while the revenue act makes pro-
vision to raise about the same sum
for each year.
Looking, then, at the items Of
expenses for 1879, we find on our
list:
General Assembly. $53, $3.50
Public printing 12,l09.l2
Contingencies. - 19,137.23
Now we think it likely during
the current year from Septem ber
80, 1879 to September 80, 1880.
the contingencies will not be more
than $4,000, the printing not
more than $4,000, and the General
Assembly nothing, SO that during
the current year the expenses will
be SCI, 900 less than last year. Fol
the two years of 1879 and 1880 the
expenses will be about one mil
lion and ninety-three Thousand
dollars, while the receipts will be
one million and one hundred thou
sand dollars. So there will be nc
deficiency for the two years"

Garce2on Speaks.
AUGUSTA, Me-, December 23.-|
A large and enthusiastic meeting
was held in Granite Hall this
evening in support of the Cover /
nor aud Council The II Getting
was presided over by General
Lancaster. The following resolu-
tions were adopted:
Resolued, That the Governor
and his Concil are entitled to re-
ceive the sincere thanks of the
loyal citizens of Maine tor resist
ing with manly Grmuess the fOrmi-
dable apd persistent efforts of de-
signing politicians, banded togeth-
er for the purpose of intimidating
and coercing them into a subseryi-
ency to their own partisan views
and interests in the official counts
of votes returned for senators and
representatives to the Legislature
contrary to the mandates Of the
Consti' ution and law of the State
IN harmony Herewith.
ResoLUed, That the course Of
brutal abuse heaped upon the Ex,
ecutive of the State by reDellious
partisan speakers at incendiary
and treasonable gatherings by rea
son of his faithful discharge Of con-
stitutional duty is at once a dis
grace to its authors, an outrage
upon officials assailed, and an in :
dignity to the people of Maine,
whose honor is assailed la the per>
son of its Chief magistrate.
Resolred, That differ as indi-
yidual opinions may respecting the
construction Of the provisions oil
the Constitution and laws regulat-
ing the count Of the returns oi
votes, vet the fact romans that the
Governor and Council, aud they
alone, are the tribunal entrusted
with power discretionary and pie

to be elected, and to issue sum

Frogs have their time to croak ana evils to hoot,
The patient hutist hath his time to foot;
The fiddler fiddleth when his work is done,
But thou, o bore, hast no set time-no none,
To whistle.
We know when Bangs will play his horn OF brass,
And Dingle by his hageoiet, alas
We know when comes the dulcet fsh-horn's 8 tone,
But, hang it, thou hast all times for thine own,
y whistler !!
When old pianos have worn out an air,
And voices crude have torn it very bare.
Thy puckered mouth, doth still emit the strain,
But all prayers that thou shouldst cease Ar
vain,
o whistler!
Long after honest folks have gone to bed,
WeaIied with toiling for their daily bread,
Then thou, lazy, long cared. midnieht bir d,
mid many imprecations stiiEsIt Siesri
Whistling.
1 call thee bird-one Of the still voiced sort;
For tits quite plain that musics not thy forte;
Thou shouldst be feathersd as the vultures are
You get the feathers, I'4l produce the tar,
o whistler!

EpITH's LOVER.

There is a common feeling that
he who has succeeded against great
odds, who has made his mark where
those possessed of many advantages
over him have failed to make theirs,
must possess in himself remarkab bic
elements OF success. And the feel
ing is right. The seH-mace men
