Show I , Nuts to Crack. ; The editor of the Corinne ''p rUr js at the present time calling down upon himself the wrath of the "ring" officials by the determined stand which he has taken against them, and the telling manner in which he denounces their actions; yet, he seems i not to fear their execrations, 'mi con-, con-, tinues to "strike home" with blows that count. Each succeeding issue of the Ji'qtorf-r hits harder and tells more than its predecessor. Evidently the editor knows of what he is writing, J and if he continues as he has begun, something will be told. In an article ! published on the 7th, he recapitulates j a former editorial thus: I 1st. The ring is unprincipled, and j has in many cases betrayed the trusts ' reposed in it by Uncle Sam. 2d. Some of the Judges think a j duccd sight more of .a 310 subsidy : than of equity. ; iid. Many members are incompe-j incompe-j tent and wholly unable to manage their own otlices. i -1th.
