A LOCAL Democratic paper say q
the last congress was the most reck-
less aud extTavagant in the history
Of the nation. One Of the things
done by the last congress was to re-
fund several millions Of dollars TO
states which was paid as direct tax
TO the national government, when
the national gOyernmC mt needed the
money to throttle q Democratic re-
bellIon. Naturally enough Demo-
Gratis consider this as an eEtrava-
gance. Another thing the last
congress did was TO pay the French
spoiliation claims, which amounted
10 several million dollars more.
These claims have been pending
ever since 1T. Jefferson was presi-
dent, we believe. They were pend
ing when st. Jackson was president,
when 81. Buchanan betrayed bis
