 SOME SUGGESTIONS ON THE SALARIES

 OF PUBLIC OFFICERS.

 Many persons are dissatisfied with the amount of she salaries of the Prealdent. Members of the Cab net, and other high officers of the General Govern meat: is thought proper by many that their sala ries should bs reduced ono half and in regard to Congress, that it should in no case sit more than ninety days It would be better for the country that Congress should discharge their duties with single eye to the good of the whole union instead of cleo tonsering oy Presidential candidates of either par ay-and when their legislative functions perform ed to return to their homes It may be observed Nith regard to those who are or may become sandi dates for the mex, Presidency tha: if they cannot a ford to sit in the Presidential chair for half of the present Presdsnts salary there are probably others who wiH.

The attention of the reemen of the county s invited to these sug Resions, and to uphold for office only such persons as are willing to the exorbtant saiaries of great officers reduced to a scale that corresponds with the present state of agriculture and other bran- ;shes of industry.

 There is certainly, in this village, ample room for State, and even in immediate neehborhood, have saken hold of this subject with great enthusiasm, and the old and .he young of all classes of society. have unitsd their efforts to urge on the work of reforma- sion and to liberate from their thraldom the victims of slavery, than which, none is more galling, or binds iss vassals with stronger chain. It s eradfy ine perceive that effort has been made ahis evil in Ogr own village but unless seconded and assisted by citizens, it must prove abortve. In many other places where the work has been in pro- Rress the meetings have been crowded and the citi.
