It is very easy for pol itieians to trade with each other while thev have * the rights and interest* of tlio Vnnsses to trade upon. A man need uot mind how much he pays for votes when the country pays it. By the way, reader, how much do you sup pose tho last Legislature paid for clerk hire?— Y..U would no doubt be very much astonished to he told that you could not guess within ten thousand dollars of the amount. AYell, try. — J u-t make an extravagant guess and see if you |ci me within that amount of it. • Get the laws of the last session and look at the 11th section of the appropriation ‘.-tut, and | although you will find some very ffingh price paid, yet von will not be led to or that the aggregate amountwa*'wry large, fjgj We shall make sojlie §u?ions dcvolopcinetits upon this subject from which \ou will set* how your money is used to buy up your repruM-nta tives —and you will see too how easy it is for men, to buy votes and huv offices when you pay for them.
