Vania primaries is DR.. Moses Stern
Of Philadelphia, candidate for the
Democratic nomination for congress
In the Third district. DR.. Stearn filed
with South Trimble, clerk Of the
house of representatives, a sworn
statement that his expenses in the
primaries amounted to % cents.
When he read the morning papers
DR.. Stearn probably learned whether
the bread which he cast upon the wa
ters was returned unto him many
fold. He frankly confessed that he
wanted to get on the public pay roll
with a warm seat in congress before
the country went bankrupt
He was bit worried lest a part of
his expenditure may not have been
regular. He insisted that he has
bribed no one, but admitted that he

statement which he made to the clerk.

statement.

Wine Had the First Call.

The marquis of Wellesley, when lord
lieutenant of Ireland, was at a table
with a party of Irishmen who were
chiefly Orangemen, and in the dining
room hung painting of the Battle of
the Boyne, which in that country ia
usually called the Victory Of BOVINE
Waters. The company wishing him to
pronounce an opinion, invited him to
change his seat.
Surely, my lord!" said one, you
would not turn your back on Boyne'
Waters?"
"oh, l never look at water when ]
can get wine," Lord Wellesley answer
ed. pointing to a bottle Of Claret that
stood before him.
