selves. The interest this fellow has
shown in the corpo ration printing is
now apparent. He was not so much
DESTROYS of saving money for the
Corporation as he was to get the
printing for himself. All his talk
about saving money to the corpora
ton, amounts to nothing in the face
OF the above facts. The entire
amount appropriated for printing
by the Council last year was only
$l30, and only $75 of that amount
was expended. So there could be no
extravaganza or loss in the expendi'
ture of that amount.
The charges which this fellow
makes in regard to the government
of the town, are the same that he
made prior to the last election. We
pronounced them lies, and proved
them such at the time; and the
people seconded the motionby sit
ting down on him so heavily,
that, if he had any sense of deiicacy
or decency, he could not fail to
take the hint.

"When President Arthur was step
