THE trip of the Congressional COM
mittee to Chicago last week, cost the
Worlds Fair management $4,000. Of
course the management does not expect
to get any of this sum. 1t is safe, how
ever, to predict that not one of the
members who accepted the hospitalities
of this junketing trip will care to vote
against giving the $5,000,000 asked for
by the exposition people.

Of secondary importance, and has
"stnnped" his county, organized
clubs and laborcd INCREASINGLY to
reduce TO a minimum the Third
Party vote, which at Que time was
feared would assume dangerous
proportions, and to discount eyery
move made by the Republicans.
The result IN Hampshire, which is
so gratifying to rs all, is largely
drs to Dir. Gilkeson's efforts.
i can say for Mr. Gilkeson that
during all this effort on his part TO
secure Democratic success, he has
ever worked with an eye single to
the good of the Democratic party
and with no view or desire for re-
ward CT q personal nature, aud it
has only been after the continued
and urgent request of his friends,
who think some such recognition
as this is dne him as we'll as this
portion OF the State, that he has
consented to become q candidate
for the office named.
IL We OF the eastern counties
unite on come one man for this Of
fee, and do not put forward a num-
Der of candidates, sec no reason
why our efforts should not be crown
ed with success, but if we do not so
unite, the probabilities are that, as

will be lrought to bear to secure to

The Baltimore News says: The
American people are intelligent, but
certainly not careful. During the
year nearly SO, 600 letters were mail
ed in this country without any ad-
dress upon them. This eloquent
ly illustrates the general hurry
which foreign visitors observe in
the population. Half a million
letters were misdirccted, aud near
ly hundred thousand had no pos
tage stamps on them. All this cost
considerable IN time and money to
correct. The ancient proverb about
