Kl EU3EKE CITY GUARD. EU3WB C1TY.0RKU0N. SATURDAY. FKD. UU. 170. Unprofitable Caitom llouici. Keprescntativ Luttr.ll .hat wined tba publication in tin Congremonal Record of a lUtemtnt from in Treasury Department which iliowi the number of pcitsat which the col leciion of customa coats mora than lh total receipt. The atatament U forth, years 1873, 1875, and 1878. The firatnamed year there were iorty fire of these nan-paying porta of oolieotion, of which eighteen were in New England, fivo in New Jersey, one in New York, and total ol seventeen- in the South. The remain der were inland. In twelve the re ceipts were nothing, whilo the ex ponse of maintaining the customs ioroe ' at eaeh ranged from $200 to $7,000. In 1875, the number of ports was twonty lour nine in New Eng land, one in New York, two tu New Jersey, one in Indiana, one in Iowa, nine in .the South, and one in Alaska. Tuero wero thirty last year, ol States nine, and the South nine. In Eric, Pennsylvania, tho total receipts lor the year were $7, and it cost $2,221 to collect that insignificant but. The year's roceipts at Dubuque, Iowa, were $1 DO, and the cesl oi collec tion, $205. To collect $27 30 at Teche, Louisiana, where two of John Sherman1 Returning Hoard gang are tationed it cost $7,180. Tho average of receipts and exponas shows that it costs, in all those places, ten lol Jars to collect one dollar. The Treas ury has to provide berths for its swarm ol Radical plundrers and leeches, whose chiet employment is te manipulate elections, and to thvso 'harpies more than a quarter of mil lion is aunually paid. In this and .similar ways the people's money is Jayished on Treasury favorites, ro gues fluj corruptionists, and the other Departments have their l.irtliii''s oi like character to ialtcu upon the aub-1 atanco of the country. Mr. Lultrell has douo wall in exposing the waste in Sherman's office. Holding ilie Mirror up It Nature. Before the Potter Sub Committee, last Saturday, Mr. Til Jen said : "Whan a certain paity sets up a high standard of morality, lie pro posed to uuulyze that standard and eee if they lived up to it ihemsjlres. Colqnol Pulton thought it excusable to fight fire with fire, and adopt the tactics of the oueiny. Pvllon'a act was an inchoate donee. The acts on tho other side were consummated, and gavo the Prviuilen'uy to a man who was net elected." Thero stands tho condensed truth. N o Radical can deuy it. The luai'eri ut that parly gained thu Presidency for Hayes by bribery, lores uud fraud. At the very wort they cun makoot Pellon's conduct, ho oomm ttod no bribory. What he proposed ifoing was to pay the Radical scoundrels tho prico they demanded fur relum ing sn lencitoouut of the legal voves. But the Radical leaders the lore tacit ol the parly, loo actually bribed tho Reluming Hoards to re turn a false and fraudulent count. They consummated the crime. And Hayes has made himself a party to the crime bv rewarding the perpetra tors of and accessories to it with the most luorative edicts in his power to bestow. Hayes received the stolen goods, knowing that they were ito Ion, and started in business with them to pay the thieves their slipu lated share. The Wont rumble Stoning. The fact being established that the Republican cipher, ware equally as Toluminous as those that have been credited to the Democrls; that they wars sufficient importance tojuslily the theft, such as Bullock admits he committed, the Washington iWf, aaggesis that wo are at liberty in taw and good morals to attribute the worst pes.ble meaning to them. There ia not a particle of doubt that they would show that five hundred thousand dallars wero sited in Now York to purchase tho Stale of Florida alone. Taken r.liogetber, wo do not at all regret the energy of the Tri- bune in bringing to light the evidences of Deooocratio wrong doing. Even if all that it alleges la true, it liaa killed but one man, while the Do mocratio gun is loaded with grape and biJs fair to mow down "leading Republicans" by platoons. Call Ty ner, Brady and the two Chandlers, but more especially Z-ifhariah. How the Errors Creep Id. A ladr. who recently published some vers. a on "Autumn" in these columns, writes to asks, "who ta re sponsible for the typographical er rors in your paper? Lean down here, whilo we whisper in yoor ear: " sh; nobody is. The editor writes bo plain'y that even a blind man can spell out his words, the compositors are college men who have edited pa pors of their own,' and tney set up the matter exactly as it is written and correct what mistakes the editor makes; tBo proof reader is a prolessor of rhetoric and philology in an Iowa collene, and never mude a mistake in his life, and ho corrects what few mis takes the compositors may make; the foreman is a Gollingeri graduate, who has nothing to do but see t'lat the matter U perfect when the ferms go down. There isn't a mistake in our paper when the type reaches the press, lint we'll tell you, at a pro fessional secret, how tba mistakes creep in. Tho pressman told the manager, and the manager told us; it's the ink il'a the ink. We pay out thousands and thousands of dol lars a year for good ink, and we can't gat an artisle that won't fairly meaile the paper with typographical er rors. Hawkeye. Tilden ond Uujri. Said Mr. Tilden btfore tho Potter Committee, recently : "I beclaro before God and my country that the votes of Louisiana and Florida were bought (mean tig by the Republicans). I would scorn and condemn my righteous title if the Democratic party had ssoured my seat by fraud." Rulhertord 15. Hayes cannot, dare not, make a similar declaration, in his own behalf and against the Demo cratic party. Ready as ha has shown himself to profit by tho infamous crime by which ho came to the Presi dency, his tongue would cleave to tho roof of his mouth were ho to at tempt tho utterance. With a clear conscience, Mr. Tilden spoke the words that burn in the heart of Hayes, and Hayes knows tiat ha spoke the truth. NKW ADVERTISEMENTS.
