recently delivered a campaign speech,
in which he said:
1--WE raised lsst year 8l1OOO0O0O
more than we needed, and hence The
resnlt i5 the corrupt legislation Of
the last session Of this Congress.
They said: 'Whv. we have got the
money there; 1t is lying dead. Why
not use it? Ianswer; Ia Gods name
don 6 get it inl Tnere lsa very ready
answer. IF they had not taxed you
leboring men Tor every pipe Of tobac-
&C you smoke, for every match with
which you iigut i';if they hal not
extinguished by taxation the cheap

There's No Wife Like NV wife

'A%o ~tAO A WACe
The morning sun is breaking,
The gorgeous East is waking,
And one, in all her splendor,
With Whispers that are. tender,
Angelic love is breathing,
Angelic life is wreathing,
About my heart so nearly,
About my soul so dearly,
Enchanted with my pleasure,
I sing, in joyous measure:
There's no wife like my wife,
There's no wife like my wife,
There is no wife like mine.
Her rosy lip is luscious,
Her song is like the thrush's;
Her laughing dimples cover
The glory of her lover.
Like the maiden wave of summer,
Whose blue lips overcome her,
The lambent circumcision
Of Lena's charm'd Illusion
About me floats so airy,
1t half conceals my fairy.
There's no wife like my wife,
There's no wife like my wife,
There is no wife like mine.
Oh, the frolic Of her tressesi !
Oh, her rollicking caresses
And the beaming and the cleaning,
And the cory Ger her streaming |
So deft and coy her pat is,
So debonair her chat is,
Her blooming grace illumes me.
And Heavens love consumes me.
There's no wife like my wife,
There's no wife like my wife,
