The Game OfEixing.

We heard OF a cross road politi-
clan making the remark few days
ago, that it didn't matter how the
majority Of the people stood for n
candidate, if you only know how
TO fr them just few days before
the election. If you know how to
fI the people, you can get your
man in whether he is the choice of
the people or not. we hope the
people will take particular pains TO
guard against the tricks, humbugs
and fixing business IN the coming
election. If yon know a candidate
IS worthy, sober and qualified, lis
ten 10 no "tiXed lies against him.
If he is better qualified TO fill the
place than his opponent, vote for
him, and don't suffer yourself to be
" "fxed". Your vote is your own,
so cast it for the man you believe
to be best suited tor the Office
Don't listen TO the man that prowls
around at night. He has face for
daylight, and another for darkness,
and two-faced men are not TO be
trusted.

Mark 'EWaiya's latest.

Mark Twan's latest production
is letter giving bis opinion of
private secretaries, in which he sits
down rather hard upon Mr., Kirby,
private secretary TO Postmaster
General Key. The letter has caus.
ed great dcai ofamu3ement among
Mr. Klrby's associates in the post
office, and that gentleman feels very
much torn mp in consequence, and
probably Will not be anxious to
tackle the subject again, at least
not for some time. Some days ago
Mr. KIRBY took occasion to write u
letter TO Mr.. Clemens, in which he
had the temerity to crlticisc some
comments made by that gentleman
npon recent order of the Post
office Department, saying that ait
was to meet Just such hardened
cases as yours and | also send you
n copy of the postal laws, and hope
you will take the trouble to look
into the matter thoroughly" 1t
seems by the letter he received in
reply that Mr.. Clemens did look
into the matter thoroughly, and
Mr.. KIRBY now thinks that he made
too searching study cfi. Among
other things in his letter Mr.. Glenn
ems says:
"My callow friend, when you
shall have outgrown the cilerves-
cence Of youth, and acquired bit
OF worldly experience, you will
cease to make mistakes like that.
That is, you will recognize the sim
pie wisdom Of mIndlng your own
business. You seem to think YOU
have been called 10 account. This
is a great error. 1t is the postofiice
Of the United States that has been
called to account. There is diff
ference here which you seem to have
overlooked. | will point 1t out.
You are not the Postoflicc Depart.

Unnecessary appcndsge to it,
Grave, elderly public instructors

retaries TO account. The mistake
you hayo made is simple; you i'm

you are only the tail. You endeav-
ored To wag The dog. Ii is injuii-
cious. Yol should have hung quies-

What Whisky Will DO.

1t is surprising to what depths Of

circumstances. But upon his arri

caused him TO forget the wants OF
wife and children, and he squan-
dered every cent ho had for whisky.
When his money was all gone he
actually went homo and stole from
his own pen the only hog he had
and brought it to this city and sold
it for whisky, The hog had been
fattcned by his wife and was the
dependence for meat to fll the
mouths of her poor children, but

perhaps, into the very crime Of

mans misfortune, every where in

is it? Surely not because the vice
is upheld; clearly not because mans

moral law, from that which governs
woman. Why, then, again we ask, 4,
