POSTMASTER GENERAL JAMES, of
whom Garfield, it is said, is very jeal-
Gus, is waging a redhot war against
the Star Route thieves. He has Just
struck off $55, of these steals
One route, which returned 10 the
Government revenue of less than $50
year, was costing $4,000 a year;
the work will now be done for about
$40 year. Another route bringing
in less than $40 a year was costing
$4,000; and third, which was bring
ing 81, 900 into the Treasury, was TAX
ing 100000 year out. 1t was the
money of these rascals that carried In
diana for the Republicans in $780,

The fact is daily being brought to
light that the leaders of the Republi-
can party last fall stole millions Of dol
Oars of government money, lied worse
than Annanias, perjured themselves
deeper than Peter, and did divers and
sundry other wicked things in order to
elect Garfield, and yet there are some
very good but deluded and obtuse peo-
pie who still have faith in that party.
That shows the extreme length and
breadth of human credulity.-Hen-
cock Courier.

Is compound OF the virtues OF sarsaparil-
Ia, stillngia, mandrake, yellow dock, with
the iodidc of potash and iron, all powerful
blood-making, blood-cleansing, and life-sus-
tanning elements. 1t is the purest, safest,
and most eftectual Alternative medicine
known OF available to the public The sci-
ences of medicine and chemistry have never
produced so valuable a remedy. nor one so
potent to cure all diseases resulting from
impure blood. 1t cures Scrofula and
all scrofuious diseases, Erysipelas,

By its searching and cleansing qualities
it purges out the foul corruptiOnS which
contalninate the blood and cause derange-
ment and decay. 1t stimulates and enlivens
the vital functions, promotes energy anu
strength, restores and preserves health, and
infrseS new life and vigor throughout the
whole system. No sufferer from any dis
ease Which arises from ilnpurity Of the
blood need despair who will give AYERS
SARsAPARILLA Il fair trial.
1t is folly to experiment with the numer-
Gus low-priced mixtures, of cheap materials,
and without medicinal virtues, offered as
blootl-purifiers, while disease becomes more
firmly seated. AYERS SARsArARILLA is u
medicine of such concentrated curative
power, that it is by far the best, cheapest,
and most reliable blood-puriier known,
Physicians know its composition, and pre-
scribeit. 1t has been widely used for forty
years, and has won the unqualified conf
tlence Of millions whom it has benefited.

The sum Of 1880, 900 is required
to pay the salaries of the members OF
the House of Representatives and their
mileage. In addition to this the last
House voted itself $l25 for each mem
Der for newspapers and postage stamps,
making an additional $37,725. The
Clerk disbursed on account of salaries
to stationary clerks 1921 ,449 last year,
exclusive of $25, which the Treas

WHEN General Grant was going to
Mexico he sent word some weeks in
advance that he was coming. The Mi
neria (School of Mines Bullding) was
fitted up for his residence while he
stayed, and grand procession and dis
play was made at the reception. The
state of things lasted while he remain
ed IN the city, which was not short
time. The furnishing, parade, and
feasting cost money. The treasury
was not over full. How should the
expense be met? In general council
it was decided that it should be done,
in part at least. by putting the soldiers
on half pay for a while; and according
ly this was done, though their whole
pay is small. The word "welcome, y
in large letters, was displayed as a
greeting to him. Some one slyly
erased the initial letter. The remain
ing letters read "eI conae'-Spanish for
"he eats" "How is this'' asked the
observers. "si g mototros pagumos, -
answered the soldiers, significantly,
meaning in English, eyes, and we pay
the bill" 80.

THE Chicago Times of last Saturday
contained the entire revision of the
New Testament. The first copy of the
New Testament was thrown on the
market Friday afternoon at s o'clock,
but the Times had made arrangements
for its immediate transmission by tele-
graph. This is probably the greatest
feat ever accomplished in that direc-
ton by a single newspaper in the
world. 10000 words were trans
mittcd, requiring the exclusive use OF
80 wires and over go operators, to say
nothing of the extra force of compost
tors. Look at it in any way, and it
presents itself as a most notable exhibi-
tien of newspaper enterprise.

A CORRESPONDENT OF the Chicago
Times in dublin writes that the sadness
of the people is what first impresses
him in Ireland: IAN the faces we're
dark, rather sickly-lOoking, as if their
owners were both in poor spirits and
in poor health. And this, / may say
here, was M experience throughout
the entire city. | never saw a single
happy face. All appear 10 be careworn,
to be suffering as if from some secret
disease, either mental or physical. Peo-
pie whom l met, who were conversing,
had no animation. They walked on
soberly. they talked in low tones, with
unsmiling faces. There was night
mare prevailing everywhere it pre-
vaded the weather. weighed down the
spirits of the people, had driven traffic
from the streets. This Is what one
would expect to find in so unfortunate
country; but English literature has
presented the Irish to the world as a
gay, careless race, as happy as the day
is long, and, doubtless, the correspond
ent shared the common delusion. Every,
body at all familiar with the Irish
knows that they are singulariy mel
ancholy people. If any such person
as the Irish peasant of English fiction
existed. he passed away long ago,
Since the great famine, few people with
Irish blood i'll their veins have looked
upon the world as very cheerful place,
or life as very lively kind Of recrea-
ton.

THE last number of Puck contains
a very bold and startling cartoon by
Keppler, the artist. 1t is the most
cutting insinuation that has appeared
in the pages of illustrated journalism
in many a day. 1t is a highly finished
double page picture; on the left, in
pale water c%olors, is seen stretched
out as if dying the form of General
Garfield. His eyebrows are closely
knit; his face is very thin and bears
an expression Of extreme weakness
and pain. An angel hovers over him
as If to be ready to receive his spirit
Wien it departs from the body. 1t is
an idealistic death bed scene. In the
center and in perspective is a view Of
the Capitol aud the Presidents seat.
On the right. in mock royal attire, is
Arthur with smiling face and clown
like swagger ready to ascend the steps
that lead to the Presidents chair.
Lord Conkling is turning to go, as if
he had just been in conference and re-
ceived instructions. In his hand is a
rich banner, and on its folds appear
the word Patronage" But more
striking than all else appear three
fat, jolly characters, boys with big
heads and bodies and short legs, in
Mardi Gras costume. They are
squatted down on a cloth throwing
dice, and are at once recognized as
Dorsey, Grant and Platt. Under,
meath is a reference to a verse in the
New Testament which, when found,
reads about as follows: "And they
crucifed him and cast lots for his
garments"
