ious inquiry in the Kenosha Democrat
of Oct. 19th-who is Samuel Eddy, of
Bristol ?-and believing myself to be
him, and better acquainted with the
man than any one else, 1 will give a
short account of him and correct some
errors of the writer. He is the son of a
Revolutionary soldier, who left him an
orphan boy in 1915, when he was in
his 18th year He has, through life,vo-
ted the true Democratic ticket. To be-
come better acquainted with him, come
to Bristol next Tuesday, and you will
see him vote Tor Lincoln and Hamlin.
The writer in the Democrat reviews
me on human happiness, and makes
many blunders he must be modern
Democrat and professor of g high fall
luton" He hints / am learned; | am
not. i grew up in the country almost a
stranger to larnin"-save not to be
frightened by the screech of the owl or
the howl of the wolf. He forms wrong
conclusions, and from them, goes on to
give what he calls good advice.
Now sir it is my prerogative (being
senior) to advise you. First,if you are
a young man and are so very anxious to
know which side the rib was taken
from, you had better count your own
ribs. Should you fail to determine from
which side you lost one-sue for mate
I-be sure to Republican, and while
you would be riding out (for pleasure
or health)and whileyou held your whip
in your right hand, she certainly would
be on your left side. And provided
she had Ewes experience, she would
convert you to Republican, which
would be the first step to Heaven-soon
you would gain the city.
But if you are middle aged man q
suppose you are) l advise you by all
means to become true Repu blican; by
so doing, you would exchange heart
OF stone for one that is full of sympathy
tor the whole human race. To prove
this, L refer you to King Pharaoh; his
heart became very hard, wher he in.
CURED like you, who is the Lord, chat
should obey him? Nevertheless it
would be more proper for you to in.
quire, who is the Committee +?
But to return F.; the Southern Democ-
racy are like the Priest and the Levite
their hearts are hardened to human
suffering-their practical interest leads
them on! The new northern Democ-
Tracy are their sympathizers. But human
! happiness coupled with liberty is
progressing it is that which caused
our fathers to shed their blood. Our
blessed Republicanism is often called by
hard names, but like the great Lumina-
ry, it still shines and moves on as if
nothing hadhappened--its origins from
heaven. 1t is like the little stone cut
from the mountain without hands: it is
rolling on and gaining strength, and
will yet fill the whole earth.
Your advice to join the Mormons falls
, back on you; they are practically car
rying out Popular Sovereignty. Fur
thermore, your gridiron you thought
you had me on, could notscorch feath-
er-being composed of northern dough,
it vanished at the first approach Of
humanity. Now peck your flint and
try again, but show your front and face
, the music, by your full signature, for
' wish not to fight coward in ambush
But if you will take my advice, abandon
your ways, and will invite you to dine
with me, and next spring we will take
the cars for Washington, q paying
your expenses) and we will see how
splendidly Honest Old Abe fills the
