it was an opportunity to secure an ad-

nisked by the Democrats.
We dislike to criticise the represen-

ungrateful as it is sometimes neces-
sary; but why, in the name of Andrew
Jackson, do not the House Democrats
get together, come to some understand

leader able to lead? 1t is a very disa-
greeable observation, but one forced
upon every man who analyses the pro-

instead of more severe measures of dis
