GENERAL GRANT.

This mscnate seems to be an elephant
nm the hands Of the Republican party.
One proposes to make him Captaln-Gen-
.r,l of the army; another to retire HIM
ON Generals pay; another to provide for
cx-Presidents by giving them for life one
fourth of the salary received when i'll Of
flee. 1t is marvel to the locker on why
no other eX-President so interested his
adherents. His success us a General was
the result of numbers. mostly foreigners
and negroes, whose lives he did not value.
As Il President he was remarkable for
having the most corrupt administration
in our history recall the Whiskcy ring
that Secretary Bristoe discounted, also
Belknap, sc. lie was also noted for hav-
ing sense enough to keep his mouth shut
and thus avoided the disgrace of exposing
his ignorance; he was especially proml-
nent for taking care of his relatives and
corrupt followers, and living life of
ease and disregard of the public veal.
Tins is the man in the prime Tor a little
beyond) of life, who must be maintained
nj the pubic expense. He ought TO have
saved sufficient during his eight years
Presidency TO support him handsomely
during life, If he did not, it WAS his own
fault, and let linn labor as all men ought
Tor their individual as well rs the general
good. The tendency in both parties now
is to feed the political bummers out OF the
,,ublic crib. 1t is said To be common
practice in Washington, if there be no
vacancy for a Congressman favorlte
especially should that fayorite bea hand
some woman,) TO create new o.hce, an
additional clcrkShip, assistant, &c. This
effort was made ut the present session OF
~ 49,, l.1rt Lott tn
an assistant Strgeant-at-Arms for the
House of Delegates, admitted by all con-
scientuous, well informed persons to be ut
terly unnecessary, ITO provide place foran
cX-Delegate who was an unsuccessful
candidate for some subordinate position.
This attempt to waste the peoples money
to bolster up Democratic politician hap
PLY failed.
Gen. Grant voluntarily accepted the
Presidency. 1t is an office that is gener-
ally sought for and is never refused. Let
the old rule be adhered 10, OF letting the
pX-PrcsiCcnts and all other eX-civil olli-
GERS provide for themselves.
COnkling Il Co., would have continued
Grant III the Presidency for life and thus
not only provided for him but changed
our system of government. This terrible
blow TO the pcrmanenCy ofOur institutions
was avcrted by the conservative majority
of the Republican party, which deserves
the gratitude Of the whole country.
"Ilonor to whom honor is due" Our pco-
ple are industrious and absorbed in thci-
occupations and consequently take too
little interest in the political affairs, but
when aroused, by seeing their liberties
impcrilcd, and their pecuniary interests
sacrificed, manfully rebuke the aggrcssor
and preserve our republican principles
and demand integrity at the hands OF
their officials.

Bg TIE GOVERNORS MEssAGE.-The
message of the Governor, delivered to the
Legislature on Thursday Of last week,
presents the official data upon which the
Democratic party predicated claim in
the last campaign of judicious and
economical administration of all the de
partmen,s of the State Government, and
which was largely endorsed by the peo-
pie at The polls.
All the public institutionsof the State
are shown to be in most satisfactory
condition. The treasury holds round
balance of S253,79S.92 over disburse-
ments, and unlike most other States we
have 10 debt, are paying no interest
on loans, and there is no suspicion of
mismanagement of the finances.
The most remarkable showing is in
the progress and development of our
public school system. There has been
an increase in the last decade OF u per
cent. in the number of teachers; an In
crease of GA per cent. in the number at
tending school; an increase OF &c per
cent. in the general average attendance;
an increase of 81 per cent. in the whole
number of schools; an increase Of 6S per
cent. in the number of school houses; an
increase OF SO per cent. in the value OF
school property; and an increase of Sc
per cent. in the cash receipts for school
purposes.
The Governor recognizes that there
are Just three means, agencies or open
ings through which the Legislature may
act at the present session to assist in the
development of the State. These three
projects are named by the Governor as
q Geological Survey, Railroad Surveys,
and tn, Improvement OF the law relating
TO immigration, to all OF which he re-
fers with favor.

some men are born to mishaps and some

nights ago q young gentleman OF rather
large proportions and immense modesty
made an evening call on a young lady &C
quaintance in East Wheeling. He entered
tie parlor, took proffered seat and began
to feel at home. He was gazing into the
violet eyes of his beautiful hostess when
suddenly, without warning, the chair on
which he sat squelched beneath his weight
and he came to the floori in sitting posture,
surrounded by the debris of the demolished
seat. With considerable loss of dignity and
a very red face he took possession OF an
other seat and heayed sigh of relief. The
effort caused the back to ty from the chair
he then occupied, and he was only saved
from the performance of another feat OF
ground and lofty tumbling" by the aid of
some one present. Fearing to trust him
self to chairs any more, he betook himself
to the sofa He says he will not visit that

INTERNAL REVENUE.
Some Statistics From the Annual Ne
mort OF the Commissioners.

The annual report of Commissioner Of
Internal Revenue has Just been received
by the Collectors, and we were shown,
YESTERDAY, the returns for the fiscal year,
from which we are thus enabled TO give the
following data,
The quantities OF spirits, cigars, cigar
cites, snuff, tobacco and beer, upon which
taxes were paid for the fiscal year ending
July /, 1881, were as follows:
Spirits from fruit, 1881, 1,005, TSl gallons:
1881, 1901 ,206 gallons; increase, 6s5, 70
81 log 634 gallons; 1881, g., AT, 900 gallons
increase, q, 299, 366 gallons. Number of CT
CARS, 1880. 367 sos. 24S; 1881. 2,6S2 $40 1917

Barrels of ale, beer ETC.. $780, 1887 ITO;
| 1881, 14,3ll, 02S; increase, 963,9lS.
From the returns it appears that the
largest collections come from the Clncln-
natl district, viz: Sl2,5O0,OOO, and the
smallest from the Territory OF wyoming,
/ viz: $lS,50O. The Fifth Illinois district re-
| turns 81, ABS, 13l, and the total collections
are $l35, 229, 9l2 30. made at cost OF 81
! O54. O26. as. There are IS offices in the
country which turn in over one million
dollars annually.
In this State there were made last year
| S4.6I9, $50 cigars, while in New York S2l,
$50 900 were made. and in Pennsylvania
1900. 900 were made, while in Mississippi
| only Az. 600 were turned out.
The revenue from matches alone. at one
cent on each box, amounted to s, 6O6, 4jl 62
or nearly enough to pay the cost OF collec'
ton of all the revenue.
In the first West Virginia district, Gen.
]. II. Duval collected and turned i'll $40
793, while Gov. Picrrepont's collections as
gregated Sill 500 II.
The report is full of interesting data, and
we are sorry that lack of space preCludeS
the possibility of greater mention.
