The Bourbon gang in charge OF the
Democrat are in a terrible stew
They have an idea-not new one
nevertheless it is an idea-that the
editor of the Herald is not yet a resi-
dent of this city! 1t matters not that
he has lived here continuously for kve
years, a much longer time than the
associate editor Of that sheet, but it is
an idea, and bright is the thought in
their fertile" imagiuations. Smith
is an interloper aud knows nothing Of
the needs, wishes or aspirations of us
mossbacks and he must be kicked
OUT is the sentiment of their TRADE.
Yes, Smith is here and here to stay.
He was not born in the woods of
West Virginia to be frightened by
Bourbon loot owls. They do not
terrorize him in the least because they
are harmless as sucking doves, fire at
long range and with no more effect
than a Spanish gunboat. OF course
we pity them. They see defeat ahead
and attack Smith, thinking to dis
tract attention from their pilfering Of
the city treasury, but our pity is made
Of poor stuff and will be OF no benefit
to them. The jig is up. No more
fat Jobs will drop into their laps
That is why they now assail Smith,

WASHINGTON. Aug. 26.--In accord
ance with the determination of the adj

II am happy to inform you that the
two last expeditions of food sent to
Cuba, one to Cardenas and one to the
coast above Sagua la Grande, arrived
safely and were delivered to the hun
cry women and children, to their great
delight. A part of that sent to the
shores near Cardenas was carried on
mems backs nearly to Matanzas and
distributed to the hungry. My men DO
ing this work have returned here and
are begging for more food. Matanzas,
Havana and Pinar del Rio provinces
