"Mr Everett and Mr. Charles Sumner" l. is a long
article Astounding in stupendous parentheses, bad
English, dog Latin, inapt quotations, Of poetry and

B Piper evidently had double purpose in publish
ing that article He meant to encourage Edward
Everett to pursue the gentemanS course he has
adopted Of refusing "to M Sumner any amnesty or
courtesy" (lbe phrase Is Piper's;) and he also
meant 10 annihilate Charles Sumner. We trust that
Edward Everett will feel inspired by the counie-
nance Of his piscatorial friend; and we hope that
'sJousthan Jenkinss" dreadful purpose in relation
to Mr. Sumner will be frustrated.
The argument Of Piper's article, so far as we can
discover it, is, that Edward Everett is Wing, and
that Charles Sumner is nota Wing. We think that
Piper succeeds trismphan,ly improving these facts

Piper backs up the above sentence with about
column Of argument Of which the following is
specimen:
"Free soers aud Coali.ionists have been made
and may be made, Of any sort Of political timber,
however rotten and worn out in previous uses:

But we don't think that Mr. Seward or ANYBODY

He has dearly paid for his ambition. No enemy

Piper's articles are written pretty much on This
principle. They are seemingly always the crea.

Senate has some excuse, after all, if he does snar

intelect. Envy and impudence are the diseases Of
low minds, and they iacurable when the patient
afflicted with them reaches the years OF Piper.
