rified democracy" and the '.four young .
HuiLcaScsn should 'shoot 'em down ike F.
squirrels" we never could know any
thing about it, because the Junior is the |
only man that ever communicates such
Intelligence. If Dr. Gwin
should defend Proboscis Mckinley in the
House ofRepresentatives for never hold
ing court, in defiance of his oath, and a
solemn sense of duty, we might believe
DR.. Gwin was "acting the dog" until we
could get a sight at the Free Trader
II would place matters perfectly right;
make it appear ''clear as mud" that DR..
G.was acting in accordance with the will
Of his constituents; that he actually
thought Judge Mckinley ought not to
hold court
But there is a point in this being
stricken from the Free Traders ex-
change list, upon which we feel unusual
anxiety and dissatisfaction. It's that We
have been 'paid to abuse him" Well,
now Colonel, do you think-we put the
question to you in candor and fairness,
and request you TO answer upon honor
do you think any man was ersr paid a
cent to abuse you? Do you believe We
ever said a word about you tina; was IN
deserved? Do you think lcs were ever
''Paid to abuse you?n If so. YOU can Ger
IainIy tell By tohon We were paid. But
perhaps We are q little too fast--mayb9
you did not alIud9. to US.
There is somethingin the idea Of any
body's being paid TO abuse you, Insult
ing to the intelligence Of the public
You "paid to abuse" yOu! five thought
there was man in the country green
enough to pay for abuse Of you, our
compassion for ignorance would swell
out SO hugely, that we would 90 to him
Immediately and laugh him into shame

Try, too, where your character for
: Veraclty, plain common honestEA such as
telling the truth in any maj. ,icb
may concern you, is 50 despica lhat
the truth coming from you would lose
much Of lis power and beauty. How
awfulIy inordinale must your vanity be,
hoy srtrsmsIy huge, TO cause you to think
any body took any interest in Won per
sonaly. When we have alluded to YOU Il
has been as editor ola public newspapers
political organ: and, God knows, We
have POUNDS object to there,
without desS par private cha
racter, or aEtSS@y u on any score
You have been a member of Congress
which station you Obtained as did Sena.
tor Walker his present position, on the
"humbug" principle, not without misre
presentation and cquivocation. Failing
in a second or third effort in resumina
that station partly on account OF being
caught with two stories in difFeren
counties about the conslitutionality of +;
United States Bank, YOU have become 1
party editor, AND the public impressed
is that you took that position as hire
ling Of Dr. Gwin, ready to defend tina
noted functionary ID any schemes h
may have against the welfare Of III,
people, in every part Of which positions
you have been the subtle, why, soft
soaping Ham Claiborne. But though vi
have not more space to devote to you a
present, we have not done with You. VI,
have taken sort Of liking TO you an,
intend to keep you for our own especial
writing. If we can't read your pape
we can harp on matters long past
which do you prefer?
