Mrssrs- EDITORS: never. in nv life, witnessed a more
by the commander of Mr.. Gays white slaves at Indl,na.o o.
lis-thc toror Die Mr.. Bradley, Mr.. Yanies, his subaI,eIn,
The German Democratic Association had served to The
Coon party a small d,sc of PIX juice, which Infatuated them
in a most ter ible manner. The whole week they had been
srtD running al ut town, occasionally biting their own tails.
At last il was resolved, tha, as the Polk poison came f., m
Germans. the antdotc should also lie furnished by Germans; ;
or in other wcIds. Germans should be 20 dcgr ,dei ~ u con-
denim the soIlci uhe of their COUNT men to attain independ-
ence. Indeed a pan worthy Of a coon
But the calculation Of the vain commander failed, because
he was not aware that the bondman ALWAYS trcmbles If he
but looks in the eye Of the free that he will become gidiy
as the sparrow BY showing from his duushiii the glorious
and Tea less soaring If the noble EARLE. That was the case
with the unhappy German ooons. We pined the poor crea-
lures with ~. whole heart. o, what a miserable appear
anre they offered, So well convinced Of their own nothing
ness.
An hour of dead'v silence interviewed. during which three
of the unfortunat German coons ahsconded. But something
must be douc. Nh. Yandcs The subaltern directed his ewes 10
the assembled Germans. hut suddenly avcrted them upon dis
covering that only two German coons were present.
A ferrous lock fom the commander frightened the two
unfuokv coons fOm their seats, and some tine after they re-
turned with the three descrters, and a halt coon an open
tic in The Tan Yard Of Mr.. Yandes, aud then the tnemora-
be proceedings commenced.
II i not necessary, said vi. Yandes, in a suppressed voice,
that the Coons Transact business in the German ansuage-it
Is not necessary to app int oficets-Dccause YOU are called
only TO sign a preamble and resolution d avn by MS against
a ieiestahle German Iocofoco named Walker; and it matters
not that you cannot reld or understand them ! canno' read
them mvself. but Mr. Bradley will read them and told
corporal Rommel 10 have them in his pocket. and he gave
me the assurance That they are all right. The corporal. ac-
cordins TO order. delivered the preamble and resolutions to
the "Lieu'ea ant Governor" Who commence a speech, such
as might have been xrecied fom a 'native'ooon the sense
