Enter Taientine and Charles;

" Good day nelghbor C. | was just
ooking for you in ordefio have some con
versation and sm glad 10 find you here.
We must settle u,on some uniform line Of
policy TO pursue Ia relation to the election
THIS fall and then &C, together in every
hing. To DO This we must in the outset
to advantage.
C--l agree with you exactly, and will
20 operate with you to the extent Of my
power to defeat our opponents. But wha'
can we do, The Propecs ahead looks
dark enough just now. and what is the use
Of struggling sgainsI falel 1t seems to INT
lha, the Seal OF Jusiica will go up the river
n spite Of US, and we have nothing left to
boast of except our Iron Works and our
foreign voters. Thanks Heaven they can
be moved, or | suppose these cursed up
creekers would be a. it,
V.-Noi so fast, friend Charley! The
darkest hour is jus! before daylight you
know. and have hepes lha. we can kick
up dust yet if we acl with proper Ingenu
" and discretion.
C.-Well, LET'S hear wha, you propose
Ito do.
WHY, just this. We can't defeai
lhe Removal Bill directly, that's certain.
But, as Sam Patch said, some things can be
done as well as Others and what we cam
do directly we may do inIreclly. Let Us
try To break up The Removal ticket in detail,
qy getting out Removal men as volunteers. g.
hus raise adeucs OF fuss in the enemy :
camp. II we can lick up the .ckel,,he vic
tory is'more than half ours g. The removal
itesl viii, if | cipher correctly be used W
community 10 all intenls and purposes, and
may hang up their fiddle finally and for
ever.
Glow do you make that out!
| VII the public officers elected are op
posed to The measure or merely luckewarn
IN their support of ii. we can postpone and
delay il, al all events. Wha, will be the
consequence Why we will make them
.ht the battle ovor again next year when
we will have five hundred more foreigr
vorers on our side than we have now.
C.-Thai does seem encouraging
Yves and The people are ured Of hear
ing about The Removal question, and grea
many will fall off from II if we can baul,
and delay it liule longer. Public opinion
has an ebb as well as flow, like The udr.
Of the ocean, you had the current iu your
favor; as politicians, in ls40 and we had j.
Iques'len. II we can delay it, we shsl,
gain the vote of our foreign metcenaries and
we shall have plenty of d s,nlers rom he
enemy,s camp. If The removal ticket is
|elecIed this fall we are gone beyond hope,
out II we can break up and defeat the con.
founded thing, | dont believe the removal
les can carry out their measure as long a,
lgrass grows and water runs.
BY hokey Fe,y give US your hand

'he thing, and go your idea. as the oaler,
Isay' with perfect rush! Now wouldn't
lbe fun after these poor buggers up III,
county have been licking us for years, IL
use them up al this last election by getting
them 10 fighting among ,hemseivrs9
V'-Tha' is just The way we fixed then.
IN 1886. They had slmos, go, The Reno,
al, but we managed al the last election LNa,
we had any hops TO do anything, to gel
them 10 fighting each other, and then we
struck in and used them up sweetly ana
efectuaIly. We will play The same game
now.
C.-But can we trust Removal men a.
Volunteersl
V-Taey'ae the very kind of timber
Charley: to be available. fwe can elec
fhtm, ! think we can manage them wilhou
= doubt and we can get more votes for then,
han for one Of our own men. ANY mar
who WILL run against the Removal ticket
will become soured towards their friends, g.
we can use hmss me have Achenback and
Others, who have pretended to be removal
men and whom we have vlclimized in III,
asst three or four wears,
