The Cadiz sentinel. [volume] (Cadiz, Ohio) 184?-1851, 1844-07-24
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.

held Shield and Banner brings out his excellent paper
IN an entire new dress We thought the Sentinel
little the neaest sheet in Ohio, but John, we guess
We'H have to knock UNDER BY the way, old crony,
answer us few questions: What is old Mordecai
Barley doing now! Has he made any speeches late
"! Is he a farmer or a lawyer! Has he got any of
his old Cofhn Hand-Bis yet} What majority will
Polk Dallas and Tod receive in old Richand? Isit
true mat there are not enough out there to make
mle stonesl And, lastly, how are Madame and the
little GlessneTs!- CGdis Sentinel
We are always ready, friend Harper, for any
questions so honestly put-and first AS to what
Mordecai Barley is doing.-We believe he is
complying with the wish of his most particular
friends who have heard him on the stump-doing
notting-for the reason that it is decidedly their
best policy, TO keep him at home.
Second--We learn that he made speech at
Elyra, some weeks since, much to the disap-
pointment and chagrn of his friends
Third-You will perceive by his card in our
paper, that he is an Attorney and Counsellor at
Law, and Solicitor in Chancery,n and "will at
tend to the duties of his profession in the seve-
raj courts of Richland and some of the adjoining
counties" and instead of being farmer, resides
and has his Office in Mansfield
| Fourth-We have no means of ascertanng
whether he yet has any of his old coffin hand
bills. Literally and extensively as he circulated
them in this county, his friends soon found it
necessary to intercept all they could lay their
hands upon, and commit to the flames the bal
ance in his possession; but it happens that some
few of the old Hickory boys have carefully pre-
served few of these mementos of federal
whggery and at the request of the Professor of
the coon Bugle of Mansfield, copy was fur
nIshed him for publication, but like all federal
promises, he cart find time to publish it.
Notwithstanding the trick of a few of
our Mansfield federal leaders upon the weak
smpetdns of the State Convention, that if Nor
decai lie nominated, the "Iocofoco majority
shall bd redaced to the shador of a SHADE in old
Bcrhs,' y rely upon it, it was only a r@se to pro-
!, cure bis nomination, and that Polk, Dallas and
Tod will distance Clay Frelinghuysen and Bart
ley to the tune of 2200 votes in this county,
which you will just please note down, friend
Lecky.
Sixth--About those coon mile-stones,--they
i, are comparatively few and far between,' and
at best of too CIay-ey nature to last long; but
perhaps sufficient to mark the Salt River Turn
pike for their coon friends in November next.
Sevcnth-As to our better halfn and {" little
responsibilities" they go for Young Hickory,
Dallas and Tod and no mistake. And now,
friend Lecky, just let me hint to you that we
have some Of the prettest, loveliest, and en-.
chanting lassies up here in old Rchland, thai
can be found in the Buckeye State and what
is cheering for ANNEXATION to a man.--iShiclG

Thank you, friend Gessner thank you
That's just us we expected, about old Mordca
po,Ho, 4,o oc
What arrant humbuggery 1t is for the fedora
coons to attempt to deceive the people in rela
ton to such a man. Of all the apologies for {
Governor, Mordecai is decidedly the poorest
Wo1l give you credit for that 2200 in the Gibral
tar of Ohio's Democracy, and we expect you tc
be as good as your word. We are glad tha
your "little responsibilities" arc following in the
footsteps of their ilustrous ancestor Trair
them up in the way they should 60, and wheI
they are old they will not depart from it, Blu
as 10 that last matter-we are in sad quandary
The democratic ladies, God bless them, are pret
ty and lovely the world over. And now, frienC
Glessner, we hereby appoint and constitute you
as our Minister Plenipoentary, to negotiate anC
form treaty of annexation and make us "partl
of the first part thereto. We guaranty that i
shall be duly ratified and confirmed OH our part
There's chance TO display your craftsmanship
There is no doubt but that one of your l." brigh
particular stars" of Mansfield, would shine will
peculiar lustre among the hills of old Harrison
) 0L.7- John C. Calhoun, and few of his mac
cap followers in South Carolina, talk about sepa
rating from the Union, if Texas is not annexed
to the Union on their conditions. And the
federal party are trying to hold the entire Demo
cracy of the United States responsible for the
quasi treason OF these nullifers! How prepos
ferrous! South Carolina has no idea Of separa
ting from the Union,--it is all wind! and SD
could not if she ,coula She attempted some
thing of the same kind few years since, wher
the old lion of the Hermitage was in the Presi
hickory at the nullifers, like schoomaste
at his little truants, and their wonderful resolve
in moment evaporated into thin air! And 81
will it be with "Young Hickory" Possessing
Roman frmness, like his ustrious predecessor
he has but TO hold his wand over the nulifiers
heads, and say "peace, be STILL" and John
Calhoun and his fellow bass Of wind, will boy
in submission to the majesty of the Constitution
and Laws.
ANECDoTE.--When Gen. Jackson was return
ing to the Hermitage, after the end of his sec
ond Presidential term, he stopped at neighbol
ing town TO receive the gratulations of hi
friends. One of the persons introduced to hin
looked towards one of his travelling companion
and asked the General" Who is that gentle
mani" "That, sir" replied the old Hero, " i
