all them big sondin titles du.-Wal then as
sed, Dear Andrew, Tho foxes awl about those
parts du make so much fun, and crack SO many
| Jokes and acts so scandalus about that letter
yeu rit to that Editor of the free press, that
rally feel its my duty to rite yeu and lot yeu
know awl about it, awl, that don't meen, for
cant tel yeu haf-but meen that orto rit to
yeu about it, The dimikrats and whiggs and
freesolers is awl jest alike, there ant no differ
ance among EN-, to here EN- talk you'd think
thay awl belong to one party. And it makes
me think of what my good old mother used to
tel me, when was boy, how younted awl
tho foxes was about Bostin on that CRATE Tea
question, and how awl the old wimmin wou-
dent drink any tea, nor let the gals drink any
mother, ahd how pugnatous awl the men got
about it, and went and tumbed hole kargo
out into the drink at ono batch. Wal thoro
line goin jist to tell yeu what seen and hoard
jst by one squad of fellers, so as yeu may hav
sum idea how it is awl over tho cuntry evory
whares, for | tel yeu tho foxes is rambunktious
about it awl over, wal then one man got a
muse paper out his poket, and sed, du yeu
want to hear what the Governor sails caus no
wont call a extra session of tho Legislatur,
when awl tho people wants him to-Yes, sed a
duzen fellers at once, we want TO no why the
people ant goin 10 rule any more in this Dimi-
kratio Stait, so tho man with the paper begun
to read, and artor little chap sails, what a
Lycurgus! then awl laffd. The man read on
agin aud putty soon another chap sung out,
what Socratus! Then thay awl laffd agin,
wal the man begun to rede agin and it want
but mint or two fore another feller and he
looked comicakle nuf, sed, what perfect
Solan! Then they had real time lafin, so
that it was sum time afore tho man with the
paper could begin to rede agin, arter, a while
he begun, and this time red sum ways, til he
gon down where yeu sed, "it is true that the
Govanor, is the sole Judge of what is an extra
ordinary occasion when wagish looking fell
Ter that took to be a Lawyer interrupted tho
man redin, and sed, Yes, that is true, but that
it p!asd the people it, much the same situation,
that the poor nghtengale iu the fable was in,
when she agred with the crow to submit the
superior quality of thoir musical powers TO the
first animal thay should moet, no sooner than
this agreement was made, what should cum
along but Jackass, we'll miss nightingale had
barganied and she must perform, SO at it
thay went, after each had made q trial of their
musical powers, a decision was demanded of
the agreed upon Judge, why responded he,
| think the music of the crow much the most
melodious, just as expected said the night
engale, when found who the Judge was to
as fthis Lawyers yarn had pith int
| tel yeu, my Dear Andrew, this fairly star
tod my dander, and if | cauld found any one
to back me, lido come rito out on EN-, but thay
was awl Jest like the handle of jug, on one
side, and that was against yeu, so as | was
alone | had to grin and bare it, but was de-
torminod to rite yen and lett yeu no how on
reasonable mon will DO when tnay cant hav
their own way. Wal putty soon the man be-
gun to read agin, and he hadent hardly got
started, afore feller haw, hawed rite ont, ide
like TO SO the Govanors ears, and then half a
dosn set in tolking bout the length of EN-, and
there they had il, eny, most hat a n 'ur talking
and lain bout the Govanors cara, afofe the man
" mt to redin yeur letter agin, IN e. is tmo
thay was puiy still I'll the nan got 10 WHARF you
sed "som thin about the Governor having con-
timpt for the people, or afford them an occasion
to have contempt for hm'-und hear the
reder had to stop agin AMI thay went to talk
in, this tim thay dede3t laff but acted mad as
sixty, and if yeu badent showed contempt for
the people in refusin to call the Legislatur to-
when every body in tho Stait wanted
you should, only few fc'crs what is connec-
ted with big rale rodo monopoly, and their
hirelnes and dupes what has rot the advan-
tagc of the people and means to keep it, then
no sarvent of the Sovrin people never did
show contempt for THAR masters. And hear,
my DR. Andrew, | rally feel between you and
me, that thay was haf rite, cause remember
cd when was a boy, was teached to think,
that Thomas Jefferson was the very "embodi
ment' of dimocricy and recollect wo and
recon yen hav red, how he yousto talk about
the ''Omnipotent' will of the People jest as
much as to say, that everything must yield
THAR will.
And Mr. Madison was that way of thinken
to, for he told Kongress that he thoght YOU
nited Stats Bank was Unconstitutional, or on
Jest as the people wished it to
be, that its jest as THAR will would hav it,
Nav hav bin so long in the habbit of think;n
that the doctrins teached by them old fathers
Of our liberties, who is ded and gon now, peasc
to their ashes, was the rite sort Of doctrin for a
feller and it is putty hard for me to get out of
that notion, and tel yeu if war Govanor the
Konstitution and laws two, must rede tarnal
strong afore would understand EN- against
the will of every body only them plagy rule
rode chaps. But don't think that am takin
sides agin yeu, for aint, lme only telling yeu
what think and what would |
du. But this ant what ment to du when set
10 rite yeu. / dedent intend to give yeu my
opinion nor advice, only was goin to tel yeu
what evary boldly is sain about yeur letter.
" III tnen tne man Degun 10 rede agln ana tnls
