LUNATIC RAWLINGS,
BY ADAM JACKAss GREER,
Reputed Editor Of the Nifhnto'cn Squirt,
alias Register,
Known as a bad child from the day he could
toddle along on his spindle shanks and say
"damn;" afterwards as bad boy and worse
man a whig in 1858, proscriptive know
nothing in 1854 although his father is
foreigner woolly head Republican in
1856: aud now a red mouthed lCcofoco after
going through a DARKER METAMoRPHosIs In
the fence corners of Brown and Armagh
townships.
From the Juniata Register. June 9.
The scavenger of the Lewistown Gazette
indulges his cuttlefsh propensities last week,
in manner peculiar only to himself. Find
ing himself defeated in his assaults upon this
place, and wholly unable to return the CALLING
fire upon the fabulous golden village" he
returns like a dog to his vomit, and belches
forth any amount of falsehoods and monstros-
tiles. 1t has been wisely ordained by Proyi-
dence that " monsters cannot propagate, nor
the father of lies become the father of liars,
hence the productions of the stupid brain of
more insipid and touI than their prrgenitor
There is nothing in his ribald slang that mer
its lengthy notice, save only that by his silence
he confesses himself political scoundrel of
the first water, having betrayed all parties
with which he has been connected simply
because the GOLD of others made it consid-
Grafton for his betrayal, hence the odium he
and his paper are held in, in Miffin county
the powerlessness of both to accomplish any
thing either morally or politically. The
leather headed scayenger is perfectly exultant
because our Republicanism icas not the price
of gold but lie is transcendantly glorious
and jubilant that HIS was thought worth pur-
chasing at n rery moderate figure. He then
glories in his shame. Judas repented Of the
BRIBE he received, and under the goadings of
guilty conscience, terminated his career in
a terrible manner; but the Judas of the Lew
istown Gazette, has not yet repented, and the
conclusion follows that HE is more infamous
scoundrel than his Infamous prototype. The
more the creature indites against us, the more
we are led to believe that he is the offspring
of some one of the Hessians of Revolutionary
memory!
We have only to say in conclusion, that this
personal collision is not of our own seeking
but was commenced by Judas Frysinger upon
his own responsibility. Since 1851 he has
manifested his impOtent rage at US on every
occasion, simply for exposing his rascality
towards the Whig party of Miffin county,
and carries his insane animosity into every
party or organization where he can gain ad-
mittance for his Shiny carcass. AS to his
charge of our being compelled to sell printing
Offices elsewhere, we pronounce il the coinage
of the seoundrel whe invented it, and basely
false. That exposure of his trcachery ac-
counts for his lunacy, by it
Ills wretched brain gave way.
And he became n wreck, at random driven
Without one glimpse of REASON OF Of heaven!7
Our readers we suspect will stare with
astonishment to know what all this TRADE
of idiotism, for it cannot we'll be called by
any other name, is about? What has the
editor Of the Gazette done to call for all
this, and a column and half in his pre-
vlous paper, written in a similar strain
Why simply that he defended the citizens
of Lewistown from low and scurrilIous at
tacks, made without the slightest provoca
ton, during which We took occasion to re-
apply some of the choice terms made use
of to Adam himself; and having it seems
driven home nail or two, stirred up more
bile than ever did double dose of calomcl
and jalap
No better evidence can be afforded of
bad cause than when such transcendant
genuses like him of the Register lose
their temper and lay bare their putrid
hearts; nor need anybody-not even his own
readers, for we have better opinion of
their intelligence-be told that he is one
OF that class of base natures who mistake
low blackguardism for wit, and defamation
for argument.
with all who have read the insane arti-
cles IN that paper during the past few
weeks, and noted how our statements and
queries were met, but one question is ask
ed, and that is, is the magnificent specimen
OF humanity who signs himself Adam J
Greer drunk Or crazy" A "sober man"
certainly would not write, much less pub
lsh, such string of absurdities, blackguard- |
ism, vulgar but pointless attempts at sar-
casm and falsehoods of every hue and
shade, as he has done; but as by report at
least he has put the bottle aside whether
out OF reach or not we don't know,) the
conclusion must be formed that he is crazy
and IN saying 50 we beg pardon of the lu.
natlcs in the Utica Asylum particularly.
as from the matter in their Opal, we feel as
Sured there is not one in that establish
ment who would not blush to have it said
ne was SO insane as to indite such an art;-
