AVARIcE certainly seems more
like a madness than crime. The
miser is like the fool who would
spend his life in accumulating lakes
OF pure, cold water, and yet suffer
thirst. What is money but the rep

Joyment! Then what is the hoarder
OF gold but a crazy fellow who
thinks more of the key to a palace
than OF all the comfort and beauty
stored In its spacious halls and
chambers !?

In discussing the Presidential
possibilities, the Democratic papers,
mention only Hill and Cleveland,
both New Workers. Why, is it ab-

York every time? II the Democrats
of New York are loyal only when
the Presidential candidate is taken
from their state, and disloyal when
he is taken from another state, then
they are unworthy of confidence and
should not be trusted.
