guns from end to end when r. B. Hayes sworn in
Samuel j. Tilden's office The whole regular army
there ready for duty and the military of differ
ent States were more or less represented-fT
The information as to the packing
Of Pennsylvania avenue with shotted
guns four years ago is in the nature of
news. The whole regular army has
been ready for duty at any moment
since June, 1851, though it was not
ready for duty on the 4th of March
that year, having been, to great ex-
tent, betrayed into the hands Of the
armed enemies Of the United States by
a Democratic Secretary of War and by
Democratic commissioned officers who
had deserted to the enemy, or were
preparing to do so. General Winfield
Scott stood by his "shotted guns"
when Abraham Lincoln was inaugu-
rated President in 1861, and those guns
remained ''shotted' for four years and
three months thereafter, because 5OO,-
600 Democrats on the south side of
the Potomac were continually endeav-
oring to capture, sack and burn the
National Capital. We have no taste
for reviving the memories of the days
of ''shotted guns" but so long as
Democrats harp upon that string they
shall have enough of it Columbus

That Settles it.

The Cincinnati Gazette urges the
appointment of Robert Lincoln as a
member Of Garfeld's Cabinet, and
gives as a reason, that when Lincoln
was boy attending an academy, he
engaged with some other boys in tear
ing down signs, and stealing gates.
That ought to settle it, as ruffians and
blackguards at colleges are regarded
as the coming men.
