A. Ward, Jr, on the Presidency.

! make no dowt his freus think be would
make q sweet Pres. Accordin to thare
idee ov things, he wood sweet. They
think j. Davis makes Tlp-top Pres.
As President, George wouldn't irritste
bis Sutbrin brethren much. Skurcely.
But | don't bleev fer emmy length owe
momeuts that Mack wood make the best
Pres. the world ever saw. Ga the con-
trary, | tbiuk he wcol make the wust-
tho l. would be putty difficult TO make
wuster than j. Buchanan. Geo. B.
woodn't do for a Union Pres. He has
his faults. IF he was nominated fer a
Grave Digger, or a boss 10 Iron Oar
auarries, wouldn't say Neigh. As a
digger, he's large. l mite say he's
immense. As Cheef Magistrsit of the U.
s. he'd be shaky. Rather. AfOre he'd
occupied the cheer iorug, he'd have
Washington dug up an located at Hobo
ken, N. j. Maybe he'd send mitteus TO
the bare handed shivalry, atOre they
battled with the mudsils Ov the North.
Prsps Pm rather heavy on George. Onct
Iendorst him. called him PenDsy lvauys
Son. | didn't stop to enkwire ct be Was
Abolishionist, Copperhedishioust, Gree
lyishiouis., or ]. u. BennetishiOnisi,
Gooist or Jentilist, so be would skrush
the Rebs as be promist to do-push 'em
10 the wall as be sed he'd do. When
George had command CIV the Potomick
Army, be used to make stratersetic move
mints toards Richmond and immejrtiy hud
bisself.in Washington. Now ct he makes
q stratergetic movement toards Washing
ton be will fud hisselt-sum other place.
| don't think Clement Ealiaudigham
wood make sootsbie Pres. fer the North.
Glen has his little faults, =. He's
forrener. He's sumthiUg else lkewisely.
/ won't say what, but the fust letter
sounds like Traitor. An that's wot sils
him. He was elected to remaiu iu Can
sdy few years. The few years is not up.
Glen wood SCOT the Nutbern and Surbren
Rebs to I, bu: aTy man Wat has a
hunk of Iatrsp in has buzzrm as big as a
CopperLei's sole, wood prefer be contin
ood being FOrriner.
Peraps Mr.. Tout Boorygard wood fill
the Peas-at-suy.pr party. | air free to
confess th.i Tout wo,d fiji the PresijeD-
iial cheer with as much advantage to the !
North as emmy other Copperhed, but he's
not the pippin or squinch ov the under
sind's eye. Hardly. lie has his faults. /
Like them fust namd, he sympathizes
with the South.
There ar ether candidates named by the .
Peas Party. Shoodu'i wonder et they
bsv a bsBkeriD arter J. Bukanan agin.
When j. b. was President be mkt things
sooperbly. Ef it hadu't been fer Jeems
90 his festive party, We coodn't now bosr
of Q war; We coodn't bost ov payin 10
cents ID. fer butter, sn other things III
proportion We cOodu't bost-we coOdn't
-we-us cooRn't Jost Coed We? But
Jeems woodu't be elected. larn he run
fer constable lately, and was defeated.
Perchans the \. Y. Peas men will bring
out Mister Emma WeUb tor the posish.
She might make luVly Pes in l cents,
but not in another She luvs the sbisalry
not tn wisely, but tu well. She has other
Close. f. Webb is out of her spear.
her spear is in the Sonny South. Fer
the ben eft ov those readers wlch hash't
herd ov Emma, | will stait that she air a
femail who makes Stump speeches occas-
ioBally fer j. q. Davis. | bet ef she ever
gets . hrsbar hl'il have IL e. run.
The UHiOn party air also nam tuar
caudydstes. John Charles Fremont Is
limited at John is q hunky boy, but be
has couple of faults. The fust i, his
time has not cum the ID, he woodn't be
elected. This larst fault is v bat ails me.
/ think -FOUR humble servint Good run for
President without gettin elected, as easy
as the mex ma0, or any other man. Those
hotheaded chaps all over the c0uctry who
cir usin Johns name had better refrane
They shood take b. Franklin Scott's
advice, ard pu, ''money in thar purs"
But think John is a sensible, morril
uprite chap, ther4 | opine no won't leav
his name be u &c for those purpis. He
must blde bis time.
Secretary Chase has also bin pusht
forrard. Salmon wood make a Celooshus
President, thars 20 3 ways about it. But
be has his fal.s. One is, be won't accept.
be makes a good Secretary.
Them's not the worst falts he can have.
Not emmy. As Secky has declined the
pominashe WARMED 10 be thrust onto him
BY sum persons, say Bully fer him
The Cops beslime Salmon fer circoolatin
ereeubsx. l hev but one objection to
him in those particular-wich -,he circoo-
la.es to few of EN- in the immejlre vicinity
Of A. W ,Jr's pockir. Ef the bogus demos
don't think tbeys luSy, let 'em emigrate
to the Suhrin Confederacy, and locate
amongst thar freDs, whar shinplasters air
Is plenty as Bishop Polkberries, and
about as wuthless. In the South the
Union men wants to come North, and
the Rebs wont let 'em. 10 the North
the Union men want the Cop Rebs to 90
South, end they won't go. This shows
that We air the more maguanimouser oy
the z.
Gen. Butler-or, in the classick terms
ov all Nuthren and Suhren traitors,
"Beest Bu,ler,"-is highly spoken ov in
connexion with the Lex Presidency. l
must confess hat "Beest Butler" is ami
mile that l hugely admire. Eff be was in
a.. presiaential cheer now insted of the
