THE EATERS AND THE EATING.
Bat the early crowd came to Soc, not Douglas, but
Inner, and they expected to zee that dinner cooked
Aen and there They hoped to be delectaed with the
sAsb. Of large OK cooked whole in their august pres
ease and served out for their watering mouths in hot
xA6 Juicy shces-also the cafalso the hog-slso the
sAosp. Alas for human hopes; the. human carnivara
were disappointed all. Not only was the OK not
cool ed in their presence, but there was fire on the
yenises. No, not enough 10 light half an ounce of
blasting powder. The OK had apparently been cooked
ny uncounted days-also the calf-also the hog-also
the sheep. But even the cold cooked corpus of the
slaughtered ruminsnt not observable-the OK, in
addition to being already cold and cooked, was cut up
also the hog also the sheep. The calf was, as yet
intact having been indeed, roasted whole, and was
sow calmly repOsng in dignfed integrity, ashen
.ai which impsled him lengthways.
Significant spectacle A Democratic calf split by
Republican rail.
Hsl ha!

esmnissary department., was indignantly called upon

Whole, ard that the caefaction began at six Of the

feet long and broad and feet deep covered at the
set.cn with dead Goals, wherein and whereOn he
syerred the OK Rad been cooked. Also spit 4S feet
hong, being hickory log, and divers pitchfOTks aud
sles were exhibited wherewith it was asserted the
venerable Paluo had turned and basted the broilng
Beast.
The public couldn't see it, and as they 10 see il,
HaS didn't see il, they were incensed-to wrath-tO
gage-to iury They the whole story ofhe
bsrsscue wac hoax, humbug, deception, afraud,
lelusion and snare--that the had been cooked in
Ordinary sized pieces also the hog aso the sheep, and
vas now TO be imposed on them as a genuine barbe-
sze. They asserted that the pit WAS swindlei the
spit deceit; The pchfOrks, an articles the Goals
vile; the ladies, cheat; and the whole affair q
