wasting the peoples money in Wash

through the Springs to that camp. We
predict that the first northern Mon

scourge which is sought to be visited
on the people Of the United States
comes from cold marble and phleg-
matte avarice, which seeks to impale
the whole country on bed of suffer
ing IN order to crafty its lust for gold.
In this hour, fraught with peril to the
whole country, appeal to the unpur-
chased representatives Of the Ameri-
can people. Let us stand up and call
the battle on, and never leave the field
until the peoples money shall be
restored to its full value"
