Some one really ought to introduce Gen. Butler
to Jones. 1t is pity that two such distinguish
ed Greenbackers should remain strangers.
Eben f. Pillsbury has declined to allow his
name to be used as a candidate for Congress in
the sixth Massachusetts district this fall. No
chance for a count out there.

II. Mccormick that his name will 90 into his
tory side by side with those of Watt Fulton,
Arkwright, Eli Whitney and Morse.

boots, overcoat and mtens, and We'll be with

| The tobacco growers are moving in behalf of
removing the internal revenue tax from the
| weed, as d means of reducing the >urplu, rev.
| enue. The tax on tobacco amounts to about
| S3o,0o0,000 annually, of which Maine pays S37.-
| G6l. l5. 1t is claimed that the tax on tobacco
was war measure and that the necessity for it
no longer exists.
The removal of c. c. Duncan Shipping
| Commissioner of the Port Of New York meets
| the hearty approval Of ship masters and is a
proper rebuke of the manner in which the bus
mess Of the Office was conducted. Capt. Dun

where they would do the most good--to the
/ duncan family and his decapitation takes from
