THE NOMINATION, FEBRUARY 2aD, ls5C
THE MAJOR GIVING THASKs-HEAR HIN!
I'm gratfed-nay, almost gone!
To hear the thrilling monotone,
Swell on the breeze, for me alone
The blooded son
OF Uncle Jackson-hesh and bUne-
We two iu one
| hope may he able now,
Since lucky hit thus crowns my brow,
To thrust my paw-some way, somehow,
With lawful scratch
And out "our crib" sume rhino draw,
Well worth the snatch
Mark ye, my friends, I'm chiefly known,
To Fame, as Uncle Hickory's son:
Deucalon-like, he cast Is stone
Behind him right.
That did not pip l'til Sam spit ont
4 Buntlinite
To be more nice, hear me explain,
I'll make it clear to every braiu,
That Cucle layed an egg, with pain,
Till Sam "browned-up" said egg again,
And-rm The chicken
Aye, aye, you understand me now,
The #, the int, tho icilerrf0re, hOm,
Thus we'll defined, are brought in view
Of common powers
So, if to Sam, We be but true,
The game is ours
held with Grand Pa, CLOSE communion,
Long fore edited "The Union,"
He filled my womb with Buntline bullion.
And there it lay,
For many years-I, tmodes, sculIion,l
Did nothing say
That great, good man-God bless his soul -
Spent half his life at "cheek and jo!e"
With mel seemed the object sole
OF his delight
Nay, washed me in h uor- Nothing pool,
To spotless white
He wrote by thousandsr r-lectured too
Nay, more, he safely brought me through,
And just before he left my view,
For skyward home.
His motto WAS, mo cry, no hue"
Till Sammy come
did not cross him-no. not !,
Because felt little shy
That might miss chance thereby
To clutch a mission;
When foiled in this, then could try
A new position.
Lo, here stand! see Brownlow smile.
lie waits impatieutly the while,
To jump and YELL in Black Hawk style,
Through Tennessee
Dear !Saiai-he looks with oily guile,
On greasy me!
Fool who was, for thirty yesrs,
BY Uncls's side, midst blood and tears:
Let him who hath or hath not ears,
Come into ring
Wake Parson Maggot-wake in cheers
Loud squall and sing
But, mark me, pray! I'm Southern growth,
And hold one hundred slaves, by troth,
Aye, more, dearly love the South,
With all my soul;

Outweighs the whole!

The North, the SOuth-the South, the North

Not-physically!
So coon as Pierce built up the South,
Just like the South-then built the North.
Just like the Nor;h-I felt the froth
Come in my mouth
He ought to have changed the North to South
Aud South to North, &c, &c
