To Mi old friend James Buchanan president
of the united states,
Deer James. have tux my pen in hand
to right you fuc lines conccrnin the boys
out her, and to let you no how thear get'in
along with there dee6cultys about politix.
And noen you cant reed rishten vary we'll
cence you have got old, concluded to have
it printed in fu of the nonparel nusepspers,
jist enuff to send yu wun, and sum to the
connexion in pensilvana, as don't want the
bows here to no what | right.
You rcmembur when was at yure hous
last fal, told VII how ambishes the boys
got sense tina had cum west, and how jeus
and cnveous tina was of each uther, and how
jeramirc tryd to make the rest of en- du us
he sed, and how he wanted GIN to konsult
him alters about gittin up konvenshens and
evary thing of that sort, and how contrary
and rathy he'd git if tina dident alters
look up to him as kind of leedur. You
no told likc-wizc that thot thare was a
big fus bruen betwixt him and the rest Of
EN- You no crnmrc prints the bug!e
nusepaper here, and he thinks the hole
dimacrat party ort to du jst as he sails cense
he has got to be printur. Now tel w
James jist bctwixt you and me jeramlrc is
the unpopulurcst man that hav ever seed
in my life. want you tn tel ginerul dodge
as soon ms he Gums hum frum hiatt, that if
he wunts to be guvancr of Iowa, he must
git jcramire tn 20 IL gin him, or lie vii new
ur git the nominashcn. But Am gon to
tel you about the dccfculty between the
boys, so vii 90 back to that subscc,, was
saen that predickted when | was at yurc
hous that thare wood be a big fus betwlxt
the boys, and sure enulf my predlxlons was
rite. hadent ben hum morn a month, til
william & jeramlre commenced Fighter about
each other in the nusepapcrs, IN the most
mccn and insinuaten way that w evur seed,
tclin al the mccn tricks that tina had ever
did, and pretended al the time tn be dom it in
friendship. Every boldly sed that jeraniires
pcase was the most lowest flung pca>e tina
had ever seed. As soon as seed his pcase
SEES to miself that thing mus; and shall be
stopped. SO rt a lettur to en- and had it
printed in the nonparcl nuscpapcr, so that
al the boys Good see it, and the balance of
the family back in PENNSYLVANIA, and WI will
see it in n fue dais, rs told manard to send
w wun, and Civ him 4 one sent stamp to pa
the postage. l jest told EN- in the lettur
what yu sed last fail, about how rong it was
for the small fry in the dimecrat party to fal
out about politix, and how that the party
wood al 60 tn the devil if tina dident stick
tn gcther better, and how fccred yu sed yu
had alters bin, that the boys woolcnt du no
good, that thlcr ambshen and jelesy wood
be the rucn Of EN-, and al about what WI
sed. before had the letter printed show
ed it to icabod Cor gideon as thu. ust to cal
him but w no gideon wasent never his
name,) and he sed it was jist the thing, scs
he ''that vii carcll EN- quick" and sure
enuf it did, we haven't had wurd Of dis
pute bctwlxt en- sense, and think it vii
keep EN- quiet for sum time. But it rlcd
jeramire orcful at me. lie thot because
wascn no poltishcn that hadent no Lisness
to interfere in thare quarrcls, SO he rit n
long lettur and had it printed in his bugle
nuscpapcr, accusen me Of jlst the same
things that william accused him of bein gill
ty Of, and that's the way he alters dus, he
cant think Of nuthen onlc what luther fox ses.
But it rilel me mitily at first, and reck
on | wood have resented it like used too
sch insults when was young, if it hadcnt
ben for icabod, he cum in jst as | was dun
readen it, and he seed was rathy, and sccn
me hav the papur in my hand nocd what
was the matter. now unke ses he, don't
git rilcd about that lcttur, it wunt hurt
you q bit, every boldly noes jeramire and
James Buchanan noes you, and viii give you
q rcceit of your caracter when ever WI
want it, and besides sails he al crate
men have to be prosecuted, and you must
have yuro sheer. look scs he at good old
James Buchanan how Duglas and the
black republicans nre busin him al the
time, and he never gifts rilcd, nor scs a word
but jist let's EN- rip. that's fact ses icabod
yure he'd is rite, III take no notis Of it, but
viii right to mister Buchanan, and tell him
what he had better doc with jeramirc, which
am now goin to du inclulen also the rest
of the Quinn boys. But before 90 emmy
further, must sd word for icabod, tho
he's not aspircn and after offs like the rest,
yet he is the most warmcst friend you hav
among the hole Of en-, exception me. no
goes for you on the niger question from
prinsple bccos he thinks nigsers Amt no
better than bosses, and yu no thems ben
yure sentaments or vccrs.
Now as q old friend | am goin to give YOU
little advise. you no you told me last fal
to kepe you posted on things out here and
that you wood considur me yure poiticlc
advisur for western iowa.
As told you before, jeramirc is the most
unpopulerest man in this part of the staff,
and still he has the management Of the bugle
nusepapur. when YOU and duslas fel out, he
was strong fur duglas, but the advertiser VI
gov him last summur, brot him ovur, and
am Altered if you let him hav eny moro,
he'll 90 rite tn righten for yu, which wood
be the most unfor,unatcst thing that Good
happen, and as we don't want dimecrat
paper that's a gin you, and fur duglas, and
