this neighborhood, We have thought it
might be pleasing to them to see his name
once more in print We have according
II gratifcd them in this particular, by our
caption, and shall now proceed to give
him ga little small puff into the bar
gain.
The versute villain was once great
favorite with the Democracy" and
through them reached the second highest
Office in the gift of the American people,
The despicable bastard, while Vice Presi-
dent, WAS always in sympathy with the
Southern hot-heads, and permitted such
chivalric heroes as FLOYD, and COBB, and
TooMBs to use him at all times for their
nefarious purposes.
In 1860, the sneaking scamp became
the Disunion candidate for President
The dirty dog and his friends proclaimed
that, if he was not elected, the Union
would be dissolved. One object in nomi-
mating the hateful hound was to elect
him or to elect ABRAHAM LINCOLN.
Another object was 10 dissolve the Union
whether the pusillanimous puppy was
elected or whether he was as'nt-especially.
If he was Mt.
But the contemplate coxcoInb didn't
get votes enough, and so the foppish fool
was defeated Taking pity on the scurvy
scaverger, and doubtless not knowing
that he was such a vicious vagabond as
he afterwards proved himself to be, his
friends in Kentucky had him elected and
returned United States Senator from
that State. On the 4th of March, 1861, !
the inimitable migrate took his seat, and
renewed his oath to support the Constitu-
ton, with determination, of course, to
6rcak it,
Other Southern Senators had left that |
body before the nasty nincompoop took
his seat. He, however, chose to so and |
remain there as a skulking spy, and do |
what other bad pen were too good to do |
The traitorous trucker staid at " ashing-
ton as Senator of the United States, in
order that he might more fully play his
part as an emissary of the Rebels After
the regular session had closed, the nox-
ious ninny returned to Kentucky, and |
still Senator, did all he could to encour-
age Rebellion.
Yet, after all this, the callous culprit
had the impudence to resume his seat at
the extra session. And there the sneer-
ing snob sat smiling at the efforts Of good
men in behalf Of the Union and the Con-
stitution. And there the vainglorious va
porer made speeches against the Admin
istration, and ridiculed the "coercive pol
icy" pursued towards "Sovereign States"
And when the extra session closed, the
pulling pug was off,
Where then do we find the vapid va
grant ? In Baltimore. Even there the
rotten rascal is hissed for his reasonable
twaddle. And where next does the scaly
sucker turn up? In Kentucky. There,
false to his trust, the reeking reprobate
resigns the Senatorship, and goes square
into the Rebel camp. The ruthless rob-
Der is made Brigadier General, and
then turns his attention to stealing hogs
from Union men.
OF late we have not heard much of the
exploits of this great and greasy General
But, it seems, the perjured porpoise was
in the battle at Pittsburg Landing, On
Sunday, the 9th inst. and the Richmond
Di.patch, a notorious Rebel organ, says
that his regiment "was extQlled by every
one" and that ne there ''won for himself {
a name which will never perish"
So, then And how did he win it ? {
By taking the lives of good Union men,
not fairly in battle, but as a malicious {
murderer only would do. He there pro /;
we'd himself to be hally BREcIuNRIDGE,
aud beastly butcher, and the facts will
bear us out in this assertion This is the
way be "won for himself name which
can never perish. 5
At tie battle just mentioned, the Union
forces were surprised, ard the unserupu- a
lous and cowardly means employed for /
lie Purpose, l.y tie Rebels, were dou5t-
