W c hear a great d e a l said of the m anner in which th e y have often'been packed to forward the interests o f certain candidates ; and there ia no doubt that w e haye suffered repeated defeat in consequence of this error. Som e man who ia aim ing for an appointm ent in tho custom house, or som e w h e r e else, and wants a political en dorsem ent, b ends all his efforts to g e t a nomination, although i t is obvious that such a nom ination w ill k ill the ticket and produce defeat. T h e s e things are not so lik e ly to occur just now as form e rly, but still, as the chances o f s u c c e s s increase, candidates thrust them s e lves on the party w itli a perseverence and doggedness sufficient to em b arrass a l l free ac tion, and prevent a discreet ch o ice; and such a one as w o u ld g v e success to the ticket.

T h e E v e n ing P o st justly sa y s o f liim tliat he is distin guished not less for h is professional p o w ers, than for his s tead y and inveterate resistance to reform in everything, e specially leg a l reform.

I Spasm odic colic is a disease that flesh is som e ; | tim e s heir to, and hone perhaps m o re liable to its ! a ttacks than political editors laboring under ap prehensions o f defeat.

The editors o f the Star aud A d v e r tiser are su f fering terribly from this acute pain in the bow e ls “ju s t about these days.” T h e y are attacked daily w ith “ p aroxysm s of fits,” their editorials and them selv e s become “ faint, stupid aud insensible”— their m ental “functions” during tbeir present tribula tions, are “disordered,” obfustieated, fogged, fren zied. The Star com m e n c es its d a ily editorials w ith, “Locofoco” and w ith “ L o c o foco” it ends. Tlie length o f its article being determ ined by the quan tity o f type on hand.

It was satisfied w ith the present, and pro p liecied a glorious future. Its d a ily editorials were a com p lete diarrhea of self-praise, and lik e tlie w o o lly headed king o f Congo, claim e d all creation as its proverty. B u t this cxcelsissim u s o f w h ig glory, like the Indian’s description o f tlie raptures of lo v e , w a s “ too m ighty to last.” A quiet, friend ly,u n ion tea-party a t Syracuse produced, it seem s, upon the Advertiser, “ anxiety o f m iud and p a lp i tation at the heart,” u u til at len g t h , it has been a t tacked with a terrible “ spasm odic cliolic,” which,- from present indications, “ w ill b e the deatli o f it.’- W rithing under these “ threats o f suffocation,” it perform s its professional duties daily w ith m u ch pain, and from A lp h a to Omega, its editorials, like those of the Star, are com p osed o f but one word, “ N o . 3 ,” “ No. 3,” “N o . 3 !” N o t a scintillation of au id e a can be found— nothing but “ No. 3,” like an old m a id’s dream, over and over a g a in.
