Yes the grand torchlight pro-

fragments. But l am sorry to in"
form you that from q severe illness
I was unable to attend. Thus

Still l will use everyex-
to get a reliable statement,
a young relative ofmine-one
in whom / once placed the fondest
expectations for the future, but
alas he has sadly disappointed all
his relations as we'll as friends, by
basely deserving the faith Of his
father, and going over to the Black
Republicans. And his mind has
become so depraved by this unho-
ly alliance, that it seems impossi-
Bile for the youth to appreciate the
difference between lie and a truth,
a negro and white man? lie was
christened Adam for me-, Phool
being his parental title. AS Dam
Phool he is Familiarity known?-
Now this youth is an energetic
member of the Camden "Wide
Awakes," and aspires to a 3D. or 4th
Lieutenancy. He may be seer al
most daily soliciting from Republic
cans on the street, contributions,
for making flags, burning powder,
or some other work of such a ma
turc, that a man Of proper feeling
would shun. In fact he totally
neglects the wants of his family,
to attend the wants of the Republi-
can party. For which service he
is occasionally treated to a smile
from some rich man. AS an in
stance of Dam Phools infatuations
l will refer you to his positive as
sertion, that there was just four
teen thousand WIDE ArakcS." in
the procession and that from the
head of leach man shot up just sew
enty jets of brilliant gas lights! On
gently insinuating that Il very
small per cent of the crowd might
possibly be minors, he most en-
phatically sworc that not a man
was a day under seventy five, and
each and every one had grand chill
dren legally qualified to exercise
the elective franchise =! Again he
most solemnly afirms, that just as
the Glee Club had finished the last
song there appeared suddenly upon
the stage a tall dark mysterious man,
in the garb of a "Wide Arake."-
That he bowed to the audience with
an air of profound solemnity, and
with a voice of the deepest bass, he
commenced a comic song. 1t was
a campaign rally which he execut-
ed, with two light differences from
the ordinary performance. First
he had forgotten the chorus and
next, the tune had escaped his mem
Dry. With these little discrcpen-
cy's he finished the piece with such
an effect, as to set the vast audience
wild with excitement. The shouts
and yells were terrific. The Bands
blew blasts! the flies flied icrccly!
the drums drumed dreaG.'ll. At
which the Hon. Judge, with the
pink face, rushed wildly forward
and violently reversed his per-
pcndicular, with his head upon the
floor he stood erect, while his feet
were f~ranticalIy kickingatthc stars
And the excited NJ. b. who is dis
tinguished for nothing, so much as
his happy faculty Of Introducing
the Speaker, sprang madly to the
top Of the centre table, where he
danced such a pigeon wing, as
would have done honor to any
gymnast!!! At the same time
each individual of the Glee Club,
was struggling violently to embrace
the distinguished musician ejacu-
lating in broken sentences, Oh,
thou great and glorious votary OF
the muses., thou shalt most certain
ly be the next Clerk of Preble
County.
Now, you will at once perceieve
the utter worthlessness of Dam
Phools statements, yet he says he
is engaged to furnish reports for
the Register over a fictitious sigma
ture.
l should be glad to tell how re-
port had it, that half the crowd
was drunk! And how Dam Phool
contradicted this SANDER, by swear.
ing that but one solitary man was
drunk, and how he was beguiled
by a fend in the shape of q Demo.
