sive. and has ordered several to leave
Virginia for Virginia's good. Natty-
eloquent, irresistible and peculiar Natty-
Nat'y from the cinnamon groves and pal
metto woods-was grabbed, was nipped,
was placed in durance vile. OF course
Natty was indignant; he was id indig-
nant, and poor Chief Birdsall caught a
small dose of particular fits from the
chaste tongue Of n disciple Of Mcclellan,
who ended O long speech by assuring
George that if he persisted in making
these arrests he would 'break up" the
Democratic party and ruin the country.
This last argument was q clincher and
Birdsall, after consulting Mayor Jones,
had Natty put at liberty. We learn he is
now travelling for his health.
