Our Republican friends have much to
say as to deficiency in revenue, but little
or nothing to say as to profuse expendi-
ture. These Republican appropriations
are something awful $5l5,O00,0OO at
the last session and probably over $500.
100000 at the present one. And not a
dollar of additional revenue provided.
No wonder the deficit "keeps oD grow

BURNS, NATIvs e ANNIVERSARY

Was duly celebrated at Youngstown on
the 25th inst under the auspices of Clan
No. 8, Order of Scottish
Clans. There was plenty of good sing.
ing, Rev. d. d. McSkiming delivered an
address and William A. Maline, ESQ.,,
read an original poem, written for the
occasion, which was well received and is
really a creditable production. tt e
following is the poem as given in the
Youngstown Telegram of the 26th:
Old Scotia's sons are round the board,
IT'S Burns birthday-the wine is poured,
The tables all with dainties stored,
So lift your glasses!
With him who beauty e'er adored
Well toast the lasses.
With Burns we'll drink to bonny Jean,
The fairest fair was ever seen;
For him love shown in her blue cen
And constancy,
Ne'er subject had more gracious queen
In minstrelsy.
Wen stray with him on banks of Ayr,
Where Nature with devoted care
Taught him such verse that none compare
And never will.
Ills lays were tuned so true and rare
They echo still.
With him we'll sing of love and joy,
Of Cupid's pranks, the roguish boy,
Whose crowning bliss has no alloy
In songs Rob sung.
His amorous swains and maidens coy
Are ever young.
OF all the poets at her breast
Dame Nature loved our bard the best,
Her fond affection so impressed
His youthful heart.
Her charms with rapture he expressed
Above all art.
He sang of flower, of field and tree,
OF lowland, highland, mountain, sea;
Then soaring higher would be free,
And rode the wind.
His highest theme was liberty
For all mankind.
With heart so warm it beat forall,
| Not e'en a mouse or daisy small
Did danger threaten or befal
But he would save
For justice stood he like wall
So strong and brave.
o, Scotia's bard! Immortal Burns!
The world now to thy music turns,
And from thy life lesson learns
OF modest worth.
Tby labor endless tribute earns
Der all the earth

THE GRAND OLD MBUG,

The degeneracy Of the Republican
party is nowhere more strikingly seen
than in the State of Illinois. The party
was once eager for power not for the
mere sake of spoils, but for the enforce
ment of an idea. Originally designed to
prevent, if possible, the extension Of
slavery in the territories, it became un-
der the leadership of Mr.. Lincoln, the
emancipator of the slave wherever found
under the American flag and, with the
cordial support Of war Democrats, who
constituted large part of the armies OF
the union, suppressed the shareholders
rebellion. No sooner was it intrenched
in authority than its decay began. 1t
saw and pro6ted the advantages to a
favored class of tremendous war tariff,
and in profound peace it refused to re-
peal the tariff taxation that 1t stated
upon its enactment was to continue only
during the exgency that demanded it.
In the period of reconstruction became
the apologist of military despotism and
the champion of barefaced scoundrelism
operating through carpetbaggers in the
South. 1t tasted spoils and it's appetite
was Unsuitable.
49,
Years elapse, during which the Re-
publican party that assisted in destroy
ing chattel slavery has become champ
ion of commercial slavery. The Republi.
can party may be old now, but it is no
longer grand. Its return to power is
likely to be brief.-Chicago Chronicle.
