THE cOPPERHEADs.
Of all the distilled essence of Copperheadsm in
pennsylvania this now famous town can boast the
purest and strongest decocton. They have a lodge
Of the Knights of the Golden Circle here, and have
done everything in their power TO play the traitor
which their cowardy fear Of For; Lafayette did not
restrain them from.
MAKING COPPERHEAD CAPITAL.
If the Coppers have excelled il any one meanness
more than another. is perhaps, in their efforts TO
manufacture partisan capital to aid the enemies Of
the Government. Only last Winter, the Copper
headed Senator from this district introduced long
preamble and sundry resolutions, prefaced with
"Whereas, York County has been overrun with
fugitive negroes" &C., and Whereas, the labor Of
the poor white man is seriously jeopardized there
by," &c. 1t was q notorious fact that dozen
"fugitiye negroes" had never been stupid as to
tarry in these CoppeThead regions; yet the party
needed something to work upon, and this lame and
stale stock in trade was better than nothing And
now, after having ,nUited their Southern breth-
rem to come and see them, and even while these
lambs were sfar Of even distance of nine msles,
they sent out their chief Burgess TO clay
bold upon them" and compel them 10 come
into York rendering them in advance - the freedom
of the city, and the chief OF the Copperheads acting
rs escort n-they must needs issue another pronunc
sminto. For De it remembered, the rank and
fe Of the York Copperheads, when they con-
rented that the town officer should 60 out and
urge their friends 10 come in, had no conception
Of the numerical magnitude of the family they
had invited, nor of the taking 1dy they un-
reservedly exhibited and therefore something must
needs be done to anodyne these little idosyncracies
Co. time after the Rebels had incontineDtly de-
parted the CoPperhead organ here ssues the follow
Ing timely order. Timely, say, because the local
stock of ice is exhausted and ice itsef could
not have proved such cooler 10 this excited aud
injured people.

The audacious fslsy Of the above ls most capital
illustrated by the experiences OF
AN INDIGNANT GERMAN KNIGHT
who thus stated how be came to grief:
Mister -, he comes TO NE and says for Won
tollsr he will makes Won knights OF to Golden
Echirkes dat he will gives NE all e signs and grips,
10 ash dat the Southern man comes Ne snail not
touch any OF my prober.y, but shall get all be vaults
from de Plack Republicans. So gives him de Won
tolar and he gives me de grips and de signs. and
save shall give dem ven de Southen man lie comes
be no stheal from me- vel he come and gets niue
horses night avey; 30 goes out and says, "Mynheer,
ish Knights Golden Circle; give you DC grip,
Dc Signs de pass words and evey tings, you leaves
mine horses ven he say, "to h-ll with your
grips" and takes ME horses. Oh, ish ruined
man; gives mine tollar for de grips and IT is nix
goot but is 90 better nothing at ALL for dey stheas
from me worse as anybody else. 1t ish Won
schwindls and shall have my tollar back for de
