from servin tho country II they are 1T for h-so
that was bad promise, better broke than kept. Blu,
what lifts my dander 10 about the Government Off.
GERS mlxin in elections, for right in The face AM
eyes OF what the Gneral ssid, there ant no SIGH
active folks at the polls the folks who have got
| office. Now, says there is the head man Of the
hull on en,--ho neat Government himself what is
he about, says IL suppose says he was SO afnid
that the patronage ofthc Government would come
IN eonhc. with the purity Of elections '--tha, no
thing would do but he mus, go ind look 10 It him
sell and see that all went right. Well Mnjor, says
Mr. Forsyth, that is doubt true cnuf for there
amt no man so particular about these matters
MI Van Buren,. Well, says l, that makes me
'hlnk Of old Jethro Gleason, the miller, and his Ia o
sons--every time the boys was busy bsggn up n
srist to the customers old Jothro was sure To come
IN and says he, Elihu haint you taken tho toll ou,
Yes sir, says Ehhu, took !. out and then he'd 20
TO the other boy, and says no Elan have you taken
tho toll QUIT Oyos, daddy, look 10 that always
myself you young raseals, says old Je,hro, don,
believe n word ont, and with that bod take GA, the
toll tho third time 10 make sure ont.
But, snys ], all that is nothing to what think is
tho worst oil the pfemontory AMI that IL the plagy
cditcn all about trying 10 stir up ono class OF folks
ag'n ano,hcr-thc poor agm tho 1ioh-jusi M
though man WIN, by industry, has got little
atorchand in tho world, wos n natural enemy Of
man who had no propery-Esery man, say. |,

try, 10, aeeordin 10 my notion, rich man for tho
ho lant got much money some others,
he sleeps soundcr, and has "a better appetite,
and the laws protect him alike with o,h:rs--
# no gits sick md cant work, and his fam
lily Is in want who does he go TO for assistance 2
docs he 20 to these party Editors md
oihco holders Tor does he go to families OF prop
efty ana character for assistance Aud when
poor foreigners come 10 this country and want
work. who gives il 10 them1 DO political Editors
and political oficc-hoiders give It to them do
they build houses and work farms, aud thus give
honorable employment 10 thousands ana thousands
oil poor and honest foreigners a. o ono on eu
but hcy'src cruel enuf just to party purpose
10 cll these poor foreigners to knock own tha ioh
and their houses, md that Tho rich always e,and
Tho poor, and all TINT kind Of slang II is too bad
that's worse than kollareo--that's ugin law & agin
common sense; aud never think on'l wthou, b,-
ling right up. Now, says !, these arc tho premon-
orys, which am nfiald, are going woreo nd
worse and II not sop'd will 20 right into n cold
sweat and coIlaps,-But ,sys J. there is n remedy
and that Is for every man, rich and poor, to look
to tho 'aws-obey the laws--go to tho ballo. box
and put IN his honest vote and do all no can to keep
the pence, md suffer no bad man to advise him to
the contrary Ain, that good remedy, says l.
Won't that keep Of the collaps ~ says l. alt
will sc, says -" Wont things gil blue says

Mr.. Forsyth. Thcn' suys l. If go cltnr OF
coaps and KolIaree by dropp'n all KIND Of hard
lekors, nnJ by kcepn COOL and watching egin
things gettn worse with me, and folks all about
the country take my advice at elections aud obey
the laws, and commit no riots these National
premonllorys Ike these things that are now
han ..n n, "A
Ike, vii be again as tua and MS sound as old
giant
And with thai Mr. Forsyth Jumps np and took
my land and says he, Major that's rae sound
doctrine md there amt no iue patriot N the coun.
Try That ont say So Well then" says l.
=" don't itturn out that what said was true, that
here is a strong likeness between n man and his
allins, and nation and IFS nillns T. There is no
doubt ont, SAYS he that was on1 Of the
premonitory and hoarte business. Now my good
old friend Mr.. Dwight ! have only few words
more 10 soy hear tell that riots and deviltry is
feared y, your next election md its cuuf 10 bring
on kolorco to think ont that slch fine CRY, the
pride of the country, and the envy OF nil croa'ion
should ever be disgrnced by not. ! wont believe
it, FOR when you come to think ont RIOTS very sci.
dom injurc the folk, intended but fighen poor in
nooonr women and litlc children, and come plagy
hard too ON the police aud law officers, Tor they
bound to keep the peace, and must do II at the risk
of life so that no good comes ont but much evil
But # 10y any chance bad folks will make riots
and none but bld folks wni lot every good eli.
zon stand by the officers ofinr law-nnd let the
cry be sppPort the lnos-keep good order. Your
flcn and the fiend TO the laws.
