A REGULAR VALLAND1GHAMMER.-

since Tuttle was arrested for seditious prac.

release published the following editorial:
snow will hereby inform these pukes Of
Abe Lincoln that they have not by all their
threats or anathems moved me. one iota from
my old political or religious landmarks. Meth
pr can they do it so long as have my senses
have been arrested and imprisoned by the
internal whtIps. but they have not silencrd
my tongue nor my press. neither will they DO
it while live. / now repeat my
wicked speech again:
II owe no allegiance to Abe Lincoln or his
scavengers, Gov. David Tod, or Jesus
Christ will add further, owe no allegiance
to any King or theological God, or to any
other God in the universe Now, ye political,
religioua or hyprcritical saints. whoever you
are, you may chaw over it, you may smoke
it, you may snuff it. or you may growl and
grnnt or wag your head over what have
said. Resistance to tyrants is patriotism.
But do not believe it is obedience TO God,
for never heard of God who was not
tyrant The God of the Bible is an absolute
tyrant, but do not consider Him such per-
jured usurper or such tyrant as Abe Lincoln.
Everything is mixed up now in such
manner, praying and stealing; lying and
thanksgiving, patriotism and treason, godli-
ness and deviltry, holiness and robbery, Jesus
and rebellion, negro freedom and the saints,
fasting and swindling. home guards and JEFF.
Davis, Lincoln and Granny Goose, God and
slavery. and SO on to the end of the chapter
Of amalgamation, that no writer or speaker
can touch one subject without getting bis
hands in up to tho elbows in the other
y
Il, therefore, sentence old Abe Lincoln to
be hung by the neck and heels until be 10
dead. dead. DEAD. DEAD and if there Is any
God who has disposition to have mercy on
his internal black soul, then there is no need
of devil or theological hell.
"Old Abe lied like hell in his inaugural;
Seward lied in his his dispatches, the Gsnsr'
ais all lie in the details Of battles.

When you first reached the vicinity Of Vicks'
