The management of the Republican
campaign to date has not been brilliantly
successful. The party in power has
scored a pretty unbroken series Of blum.
ders since Garfield rose out Of the Chi
cago convention on the ruins Of the
hopes of Grantism and Blainelsm. This
is the depressing feature Of the, political
situation.
We have newspaper attacks upon the
patriotism Of General Hancock which
procured the publication of that clear.

the present Democratic candidate to
Gen. Sherman IN the trying days Of 1875,

Cleveland District are determined to de-

Grants Poverty.

One reason assigned why Grant should
again be elected President, is that he is very
poor.
What las become of all those bull pups
and things he got when he was President be-
fore?
What has become Of the $500, 900 he got for
being President eight years?
What has become of his Long Branch
palace that Tom Murphy gave him for his
fIvoiS?
What has become of that 100000 dona
ton ~hich Mr.. A.. 4. Stewart headed with
$4,000?
What has become of the neat little check
tina McCulloch paid him for the Treasury?
Where is the valuable tract of land in West
Chicago which }. Russell Jones gave him
when he got the mission to Austria?
What has become of the money that Bro.
Corbin realized for Mrs. Grant out Of McCul-
loch's Black Friday?
What has become of the $7O0.O0O that was
realized out of the Old abandoned sugar re-
tinery, for which he paid 100000, and sold
it to the government for 81, 100000?
What has become of the money he got from
the San Domingo job?
Where is all the money that was realized
from Boss Sheppard's steal, Belmont's steal,
the Indian ring steal, the whiskey ring steal,
and the thousand and one other speculatiOns
which made Grant and his administration the
most odious and corrupt of all that has gone
before or will come in the future, unless he
should be reeecteuo

1t was a festive b%utchaire.
Withia clear and liquid eye; sg ...
The glow of health vas on his cheek
. His nose tinged with old rye. .|
His arms We're like choice mutton hams,
With sinewS like an OK;
Fat suet padded out his ribs tIA .t'- 80
And swelled his square7cut chops,
1t was a blushing damosel, . .
With a pert pretty face
Tip-tilted nose. n Saucy smile.
And action full of grace.
Her cheeks were like the red, red rose,
Complexion clear as milk;
Her hair was banged, ard like her dress,
Resembled finest silk.
She tripped into the meat-man's store,
And galIy looked around;
Her fairy feet. SO trim and neat,
On the Sa wduSt made no sound.

And Shun deceptiOn'S art:
Midst all yOur outlets. CHI OpS and steaks,

Fur felt hats are very elegant.
Carmelite brown is again worn.
Paniars are losing favor III Paris.
