CoScLusfoN OF Mr.. PEPPERAGEs FOURTH or
July ORATIoN.-" shall close" said the
eloquent orator, by an allusion to the vital
greatness and sempiternal Importance Of the
national Union
This sentence was greeted by salvo Of
tremendous cheers and cries of Go it, Pep
perage
The Union :" perforated Mr.. p Inspir-
ing theme How shall find words to describe
its momentous. magnifcence and its beatefc
lustre The Union it is the ark of our
safety the palladium of our liberties ~
the safeguard of our happiness ",!-and the
ggis Of our virtues ~, In the Union we live
and move, and go ahead. 1t watches over us
at our birth-it fans us in our crades-it
accompanies us to the district school--it
gives us our victuals in due season--it selects
our wives for US from Americas fair
daughters, and it does q great many other
things; to say nothing Of putting us to sleep
sometimes, and keeping the flies from our
innocent repose. While the Union lasts, we
have the most reasonable prospect of plenty
OF fodder, with occasional drinks. By its
benehcent energies, however, should the pre-
sent supply give out, we shall rise superior to
the calculations of an ordinary and narrow
prudence, and take in Cuba, Hayti and
Mexico, and such parts of all contiguous
islands as may offer prospects for advantage
GUS investment. Palsied be the arm, then,
and blistered tho tongue, and bumped the
back, and broken the legs and eviscerated the
stomach, of every person who darcs to think
or even dream Of harming it May the
heaviest curses of Time fall upon his scoun-
drelly soul May his juleps curdle in his
mouth May he smoke none but New
| Orleans tobacco May his family be perpet-
ually ascending the Mississippi in steam
boat May his own grandmother disown
him And may the suffrages of his own
fellow-citizens pursue him like avengng
furies, till he is driven, bowling into Congress
For, oh my dear, dear friends-my beloved
ellow-citizens-who can foretell the agonies,
or the sorrows, or the blights, and the
anguish, and the despair and the black eyes
and the bloody noses, that would follow, upon
the dispersion Of our too happy, happy
family
The accursed myrmidons of despotism,
with gnashing teeth and blood stained eyes
would rush at large over this planet They
would lap the crimson gore of the most
wealthy and respectable citizens. The sobs
of females and the screams of children would
mingle with the barking of dogs and the crash
of falling columns. "A universal and horrid
night would mantle the skies, and one by one
the pillars of the universe 60 crumbling into
ruin, amid the CLEAN of bowie-knves and the
lurid glare of exploding steamboats, -
