proved the folly Of such rash marriages.
Whiggery (the old monastery seeks another
bride and cla mors for q divorce from its old
love-" No wonder our neighbor in virtuous
indignation calls him "a vile Mormon, Ii
centious Turk" He is an old reprobate. and
instead Of wandering disconsolate without
home, he appears TO be prowling about in
vitng brides to wedding feasts, dissipating
shamelessly week at one Of these feasts,
then out after more "incipient follies" in the
likeness of maidens. More than this, our
rightly angry neighbor says he 'kissed in
temperance" in 1910, and sung bad songs,
the old reprobate; and more than that, he
made a bride of that black wench abolition
ism. Our neighbor is right-the course Of
the 'unkempt monster deserves general rep
rotation, and he deserves to have fifty wives
all at once. ..,
But we had not intended indulging in the
pleasing luxury Of following this delightful
neighbor so far. Yet we should much like
to give the whole article entire. We have
not room for it-yet. we pray thee, good
Wing friend, read that article. Hunt up the
paper beg, borrow or steal it-any way, so
that it be obtained, and that memorable piece
be read. You will there find what precious
old monster this Whiggeryis you have been
hugging to your bosoms, and what precious
set Of rascals you are, who are called Wings.
And we want Democrats to read it-and thus
learn what compliment our respectable
neighbor has paid your intelligence. Read
it by all means, and learn how eloquent and
decent and honest Locofoco editor can be.

upon the next Legislature Of electing U.

with the present Congress, on the 4th of

Wright, Judge Mcdonald, J. II. Lane, A. p.

a State Legislature, this fall, is highly i'm
Porlant in many respects. We hope "Old

Nearly all the houses appear to be stores and
