pretend that they were unfairly used. But
it having turned out that the Republicans
had large majority in the Convention, with
oil the power as Representatives Of the peo-
pie in their hands, the Dead Rabbits have
determined on creating all the confasion
possible, and to do their best to prevent the
admission OF Minnesota at all unless she
comes in under Dead Rabbit auspices. This
is their game every where, since North has
cut them of from popular support and au-
thorty. Fraud, force, and rufhan rule IS

luton which will effectually thwart their

Elder Fawsil ON the "SpseFl

Ethan Spike Of Horribly, Me-, has written
letter to the Portland Transcript desert
bling the doings of the Elder in Horribly. We
do not see how any one can resist the FL
der's logic:
"Elder Phine-as Fawsl preached agin it
last Snbberday. 1t was a great aoutbust of
the Elders, au gin comfort to many. do
suppose that Elder Fawsil, when he's fairly
walked up, is abaout as tough customer as
the devil ever wrasled with. | don't raaly
s'pose he'd be Bit more affeerd Of Belize

should be of yerlin coalt. You orter hear
him talk of the divil-jest Us easy and ia
milyer as though he knew he'd got the crit
ter under his thumb, an was sartin he had
holt OF him whar the hair was short. But
was goln' to say suthin Of the last sarmins
of hls'n.

lie said this sort Of thing was nothin new
to him. Alluded to the Witch Of Endor, an
the hogs which got the divil into them. At
this pint the Elder went Of on target about
pork-said it was pis'n- that ef the diyl
