Mn. BROwDER. one Of the prime nov CTS of the Clj.z-G-' anI raxDayers' parry says, m a communication in yestsrias'z CrrIzav, that ta. 1-s.uiza i,I which h.. ul others have formed s "ppIi,ic organization tat not partisan The ui-tur.iou i- so h-ht iha: vc fear tie rea;lemau will Lot ba unde stood a- hr uI~hss to &c., Webster save: Politics The management of a polite party; the advauc..Ge1t or ca2diia:es to nfic-: ID a bad S.n-s. a-iful or disEonc>t management tb -ecure tbc success of pollfical measures or party schemes; political ;-icke-y.~ "Part zan-An ad- h-rent to a party or faction; oDe who is violently and passionaIely devoted to parry or interest"
 We have heard several gentlemen say that the Ci'lzeus' and Taxrayers' or, ap- zttion wss hot a political party orcari- aation: tbat if ii were they would not belong 10 i', because they were mem ters of toe R-pubiican party, or ot the Democratic party. Webster Is g"od authority, and his definition of 'poli- tics" should certainly convince tn SC persons who haze been deceived ID the design of the movers of the Cft z-ns' and Taypayers' organization that 1t is a polit cal party conducted by parti- 2 ms. Democrats are accustomed to go off half-cocked and it would not be con- rid-red a Democratic meeting unless tbere was a frst-class row and a bolt. The distinction which MT Browder would have the pubic see between the words -pcliticar' and ''partiz n is one with SD lt.le difference as applied Co his organization, that 1t Ril be difficult to get the people to see it. If they see anything, they must see that these men are rank pariisans. It is not so much what men may say Tn giving explanations of what they mean. as what they write. say and do. Every movement, every act, the constitution and by-.aws-everyt ling connected with the Citizens and TaXpay' rs' organlza- ton is and has been partisan. They have fought. struggled and almost bled. for the supreme cry of their newly organized party. This cannot te de- med. They may wea'e line web about the word, but the facts remain the >umc and can easily be seen through the gauge. A an uff-shoot of the Demo cratic party It may be a good tLInS, but it will catch but few If any Republicans Ia it, web IL Is a good deal like the spider and the fly; may catch one here and 'Aere. but when they attempt to call a spade meat-ax they Siil find that tine people are not such fools as they ta>e them to be. IT anythin- good eau come out uf the Democratic ''SodUm and c murrah," let the Citizens aud Taxpayers go right along by all means. We rather admire the pluck of Stevens, Browder * Co, as well as the spirit of Strauss S Co. Let the dance go on un- coufiued-in ihe Democratic ranks.

a teacher of mathematics named
William Lawson, who died at Edin-
burgh in November 1757, on one occa.
sion, to win a WAGER made by his pa
tron, undertook 10 multiply regularly
in succession the numbers from one to
forty, without other aid than his memo
ry. He began the task at seven o'clock
in the morning and finished at six in the
evening, when he reported the product,
which was tested on paper and found
to be correct. 1t made line of forty
eight figures, and fair copy of it long
occupied a place on the wall of his
patrons dining-rOom, for which it was
framed and glazed. 1t may be added,
that in the course of the day on which
the mental calculation was made Mr..
Lawson received his pupils as usual
and gave them their ordinary lesson in
Latin.
