Aneien,s Used Gas Warfare.

Tho earliest use OF deleterious gases
In siege warfare Is recorded In the
history OF the re.oronnesian wars
from &3t to 4e4 g. c. During this
struggle between the A,hcnians and
Spartans and their respective allies
the cities OF Pla,ea and Delium were
besieged
Wood saturated with pitch and sui
phur was set on Are and burned under
the walls OF these cities In order TO
generate choking and poisonous fumes
which would stupefy the defenders
and render the task Of the attacking
forces less difficult.

O, what God-send the war has been to

Of course, the taxes are to be continued:
nobody expected anything else.
The Democrats created SO many new Of
fces, increased SO many salaries, and made
such lavish appropriations that new taxes
were necessary.
The war had nothing to do with it: on the
contrary, the war has enormously benefited
this country, in the way of commerce.

In this Advice-shop, the men who Advise
the Secretary of the Navy how to marriage
his business are to be paid salaries amount
ing to two and half million dollars year
--(S2, 500,000).
Now it occurs to me, that if we have a
score of Wise Men whose Advice to the Gov
eminent is worth that much money we ought
to let them live in the White House anil run
the whole thing.
What's the need of the expense of a presi-
dent and Congress, when we have score
of Choice Spirits whose Advice is worth 81
100000 a year?
And what a pity it is that we have not
had the benefit of that Precious Advice, long
ago!
We Democrats howled at the Republicans
for increasing offices, salaries and expenses;
next time, the Republicans will howl at us
for the same thing. and the country will
again enjoy the glorious privilege Of choos-
