The morning comet. (Baton Rouge, La.) 1856-1856, 1856-11-05
Thank the Lord for Ef.

to-day-past and gone-sealed, signed
and delivered over las far as the
people are concerned, to old time
that he may put his heel upon it and
grind the incidents of the campaign
into dust and obliviousness. We say
it again, for fear of being mistaken,
that the election for President of this
Union of States, for the Ammo Domi-
nj iof 1856, is forever past, as far as
the people are concerned, and another
four years will have TO turn us like a
ball about the sun, before the people
will be called on, in their sovereign
capacity to do the like again.
Will the democrat " grant the
truth of these premises ? Will Phon's
Ledger please not to contradict us in
this Will Mr.. Iberville Gazette oblige
us not to say it's Wing trick, to
keep voters away from the polls, and
tell his contemporary neighbor Of lie
Meschecebe, to bottle up any remnant
of malice he may have against us, un
til we shall meet again after another
four years march and counter march :?
Will our good natured friend 10 Church
street, charge the devil to put nitro
muriatic acid in his ley, that the metal
in the Office may never know that they
have stood upon their beam ends to
refute one class Of lies with the evi-
dence of another class ? Will Mr. Ga
zette turn out "Fillmore Ranger" to
grass, and take a fresh pen? Tell US
no more of the record of the thine
server" the patent politician who has
served all parties and advocated all
priDciples-without any to guide his
life by. as magnet of truth. The life
of "Mr. Buck" as be is called sis full
of this. He has a patent for all prin-
aciples and no improvements can be
| mado upon it, it covers the whole
ground he has lived too long, and
done too many things from policy, to
be the President of the nation, and if
he should be thrust upon us by the
combined agency ofunscrupulous office
holders and their foreign allies, he can
be the President Of aparty, led by
demagogues but not the President of
the American people.-But this d.
erosion is out of place. Gentlemen of
the press-gang, clean out your Offices
scour we'll the innocent representatives
Of Festus and the devil for bad, and
the rays Of light from Heaven, for
good. Burn up your platforms, for
they will never serve your purpose
again-the fate of the Almighty has
gone out-the American heart has
been aroused to action, and the world
must know the fact that America is
hereafter to be ruled by its own native
citizensi Not by filling place; but
by its clear and not-to-b be misunderstood
voice at the polls, without the stultify-
ing and multiplying effect Of counter
element; without fraud and without
bribery To you gentlemen of the
Printing fraternity, who have wasted
much time and paper, in Intellectual
efforts to define the position of Mr.
Rufus Choate, John Hogg, Jones
johnson and Jovin-Wailes, Kennel
Il Co., let US congratulate you in the
happy termination Of your labors.
