year of the rule of Archie, who was of the land
Of Tennessee, and of the tribe Of Andrew, that
the seeds of strife were sOwn in the hearts OF the
people of Archie.
.. Now, Archie had ruled for nino years,
peace and quiet pervaded the land, and the name
Of Archie was held in great reverence by all his
people, and the old men, and tho young men, and
the matrons, and the young maldens, and the suck
hngs, learned 10 speak his name with praise.
3. And it camo to puss at the end Of nine
years, that Archie bad been ruler Of the people.
that he dreamed, and behold! he stood in the TEN.
pie of Democracy.
4. And behold there came up around and about
him, one hundred Savans. clothed by the people
Of the land from whence they came, with power
to select for them messenger, and robe him with
power, and authority. to 60 up to the great Sanhe'
Irim, and to set among the wise men OF the Ma
ton and for them there to speak,.
). And these hundred were men OF grave and
honest faces, of much thought, but of few words;
and spake they nothing but words Of truth, neither
was guile on their tongues nor deceit IN the hearts
of them.
6. And behold seven others came up, and went
amongst and mixed with the hundred who were
Savans; and the seven were the seIi-appoIntcd
wise men of the land and the names Of these So
ven were Scion, Sacktield, Lambert, Samuel,
Gerard, Elias, and Edward.
7. And these seven were all men Of great
age and of many years in this land, and bore upon
their bodies the scars Of many hard fought battles,
and lhev were rcverenced in the eyes Of The peo'
pie; even by Archie, their lord.
s. And it came TO pass that Archie stood up in
their midst-the hundred Savans- being OF the
tribe of Andrew seventy and nine, OF the tribe OF
Henry, were twenty ana one. And the seven
wise men, al! of unknown tribes, save and except
SackfeId: and SacktieId was of the tribe OF the
Jackall.
7. And there was great joy and exceeding
gadness, in the hearts of the wise men, ana they
threw themselves upon the necks OF the oaVans,
and wept with joy unspeakabIe.
10, And Archie was abashed, and waXed ex-
ceeding kind of heart, and the bowels OF Archie
yearned towards his people, and he was sorrIy
affected lest they should require him to g. up to
the great Sanhedrlm, to sit among the wise men OF
the Nation, and thus be- away from his people,
IL. And Archie was exceeding anxious to dwell
amongst his people, at his tabernacle OF the Wax
haws with his little ones.
II. And when the wise men and the SavanS
had looked upon Archie, aud beheld with their eyes
the grea, ma n. and heard him speak unto them oi
the great things which he had done to7 them, they
we're struck dumb with admiration, and marveI!cd
much.
49, And when tho Savans which were of the
tribe of Henry, had seen these things with their
eyes, und heard these things with their ears, 'heV
were moved, and their bowels yearned towards
Archie. The arnointed of Democracy; and they
cried aloud. Rabbi! Rabbi! how can we expect tor
siveness for SC long rebcIling against thee!
d. And now about this time, voice was heard
from their midst, crying aloud and saying, wo! wo!
to him of the tribe Of Henry, who shall bow down
and worship at the shrine Of an Andrewite.
Is. And when il was made manifest to the
ilenryi,es that this warning came from the Proph.
IT David, who is the annointed Of Federalism, and
dweIIs over beyond Mount Boston, and IS ihe ruler
of the H.nrvi,es of the Plains Of Washington
l6 They were sorely alarmed and perplexed'
in spirit and cried aloud unto David, the prophet,
saving, oh! most righteoua David tho annointed OF
Federalism, speak unto US andiAume our darken.
ed understandings.
II. And i, came to pass that, then, David, tho
prophet lifted up his voice and spake unto his Peo'
pie. saying,
is, Hearken unto me, ye my people who are
of tho tribe of Henry, and hear what his prophet
has 10 saw urto YOU, for come unto you' even
from Prince Hal, thy lord and my oro'
10. And David orened his mouth, and spaKe
unto them again. saying, Remember! Remember!

ruler and mastor of our land. Bow not down De-

90. Now when the Iienryl,es heard these things
thew we're much amazed; and each and every one
of then, turned and went their way. and IN their
hearts they rejoiced and were exceedingly JOYFUL
insomuch that they went straight up unto ihe
svnapogues, and worshipped at the shrine o! A. :

2i. And Archie dreamed again, and oehoIu
