willingness 70 serve he people. although
his eleeiion. which he considers errtain,
will not, ne SAYS. :. add any thing 10 his
character and Standing" He then touches
OF his Wing brethFrn ior their neglect Of
him heretofore, 10 ihe following delicate

The Parson objects 10 the present mode
| of eleriioneering. and announces his de
termination 70 endeavor 70 reform il alto
gether.-and gives he following cogeni
reason far this projected revolution in the
langseHled habits Of The stamping fraier-
nifty:
Fellow-cisizens, being poor. and hav-
ing 10 attend 10 my private coneerns daily,
lam proud 10 learn that you neithtr ex-
pecie or require me 10 take the stump. or
leave home. as this would greatly embar-
rass and derange my business. There IS
really M cali for speeches. or personal

viii create storm there long TO be re-
membered!
Again: ! wish iorrform this District,
lin reference TO eleclioneering. There is
flo sense in railing the people out from
hrir harvesting. and their work, TO hear
80 many long and embarrassing speeches.
Dl.eithe candidates write out their opinions
in circular form, and send them among
The people, who can read them al their
leisure. Of mornings and evenings. But
Tins is erpalsire to the candidate. and this
isIhe reason why they prefer riding about,
and 3s,sagiag. eating The es.., sHs sss a.
shall be out again in few weeks more,
with another circular setting forth my prin-
eiples. Mean while. 1 will remain al
home. Al work. eating my own bread and
meat. as all genuine Republicans should

The Parson then draws an ingenious
distinction between the !. T.oeofacos" and
the " Democrais"-and states, in pretty
plain language, as i his wont. why he
does not either wish or expect the sup
port Of the former, although he Is not at ali
unwilling that the votes Of the latter shall
be recorded in bis favor:
There being stout majority OF I.o-
colocos and Democrats in this District.
who usually vote together. il is eviden,
that | cannot be elected without portion
OF their votes. have said 50 much abont
the stealing and other yiIlainies OF the To-
ccfocos-all Of which was true-that I
eInnot expect. a. indeed | do not desire,
the votes of that class OF my fellow.citi
zens. II elected by their yotes, they might
consider me under obligations 10 favor
their general rogusry, which. as an hon.
est Wing. never eau do. The Demo.
er0fs, who usually vote against Wing
candidates, ] trust will vote for me. These
have ever spoken Of 10 terms Of appro.
hltion, and would feel as proud of their
support, as would Of Wing votes. They
are honest and patriotic. and there are
abou, enough Of them to elect me, among
