There was glorious uncertainty about the aspect of
affairs that made every doubtful and the candidates
cautious they invested in supplies of the ardent

Under these circumstances it a hard time for the
patriotic suragans who always ready TO vote Tor the
man having the heaviest purse all for the love of country
and auor Many of these poor fellows wandered around
the corners bare of dimes and consumed with throat
burnurs ike those disconsoate ghosts this side Syx

which could wait them in dreams to the fair Eysan fields
Poor dsconsoates where then those dear friends
