breeding and trNst-fostcring tariff.
The appropriations made ct this
session of Congress arc just $2S,
s. 5 $50 less than those made at
the last session. Slowly but surely
the democratic party is getting the
expenditures of the government
down to a business basis.
Hon Levi p. Morton, in addi-
ton to the possession of numerous
barrels, easily tapped. had two
.ocs amputatcd and bought four
new wigs while in Europe. Surely
he is now fully qualified to lead
the N, Y. republicans to defeat.
The Intelligent voters of the
country will know where to put
the blame for not having sugar put
on the free list. The democratic
party, nine-tcnths Of which favors
free sngar, is not responsible, nor is
the the democratic House, which
voted overwhelmingly for free
sugar upon two occasions.
So the Goulds arc to become

to the U. S, by the predictions OF
the English newspapers as to the
early downfall Of our government,
who has been convinced that Eng.

is therefore anxious to return, but
has neither return ticket nor the
cash to do so. His name is Now.
