When a young fellow goes out be tween the acts at the theatre now, they say he has gone to see his aunts stimul-ants. There was a lady in church last Sunday morning who didn't look around to see who had on spring hats. She was blind. This is the season when the rural boy, as ho hoeth the corn, mistake th his toe in the dirt for a .toad and welteth it with tho hoe.

Allot" these events are sure to be of great interest and importance, especially the two latter; and all of them and everything connected with them, will be fully and freshly reported and expound ed in Tjik Srx. The Opposition House of Representa tives, taking up the line of inquirv opened years ago by Thk Sux, will sternly and diligently investigate the corruptions and misdeeds of Orant's administration; and, will, it is to be hoped, lay the foundation for a new and better period in our nation al history. Of all this The sux will eon tain complete and accurate accounts, fur nishing its readers with early and trust worthy information upon these absorbing topics. m The twenty-third Presidential election, with the preparations for it, will be mem orable as deciding upon Orant's aspira tions for a third term of j ower and plun der, and still more as deciding who shall be tlie candidate of the party of Re form, and as electing that candidate.
