The Southern Confederacy is SO dreadfully
changed that the European powers can't rec
oqaize it. The he and she rebels about Bed
ford are so metamorphosed by singing the
Star Spangled Banner and other national
songs that they don't know themselves. They
so far forgot their identity that they tried to
celebrate the 4th like loyal people.

A REQUEST. would request that here
after when the forces of Snake Hill throw out
their spies to gather information, that their
leaders instruct them to report correctly. And
as to the story of the soldiers eating at the
table with negroes at the celebration in Def.
baugh's woods, we would inform the Gazette
that it is a deliberate falsehood. But we
would sooner, by far, dine with an honest
black friend, than with sneaking, traitrous,
secret and tainted enemy. As to our
standing back until they had eaten, that is but
one of the many lies turned out at the Cop
perhead mandatory.

A NIscENcE.-Some ofour readers no
doubt recollect an occurrence which took
place in our borough several years ago. 1t
was on an election day. The canvas had been
an excited one. A democratic citizen Of ST.
Clair was in town, who had not voted. It
was important that every vote should be
polled. The then editor of the Bedford Ga,
zette, at that time the Great Mogalof the 10.
eofoco party in our county, obtained horse
and sent the citizen to the st. Clair poll to
cast his vote for "democratic principles ~
He arrived there safely and presented his bal
lotto the officers Of the election, but, alas
he was ''gemmann Of African descent, an
the officers being in iayolsof ..the constitution
as it is would not receive his vote. Let the
Cops be satisfied that the negroes will vote
with Them and they win all be in favor OF ne
gro suffrage. il makes q vast difference
whose OK is gored.

WANTS TO FIGHT. The editor Of the Ga
1ette says ssonce for all, we. tell him that we
are ready to meet him IN a,sy manner in which
he may choose to fight u.s. This looks bel
Iggerent Somebody must have trod upon
his toes. 1t is really too bad to work up a
fellow creature in this way If we keep
punching up the animal with long stick we
may expect to see some fun in the end. We
caution the boys to keep sharp lookout, as
it is universally understood that the modern
regalia of the chivalrous is a set of hoops
and balmoral skirt, armed of course with a
broomatick. There is no question but this is
the elimination of ehivalry. Wouldn't we
like to see the editor in such trig and
ment; it would be equal to circus, monkeys,
spotted dogs and all, Jef's last acts would be
nothing in comparison with it.

A CORRECT TIEw.-A sublimated, transcen-

their celebration of the 4th. "Rejoice, said

to put on sackcloth and ashes" We think
he was right in his view of the subject and
most undoubtedly right when he added 'the
aboltionists," meaning the Union men, ''are

Love NE, LOVE NY DOG is an old maxim
and it is as true now as it was when it was FIRST
penned. The Copperheads used to call the
soldiers 'Lincoln's dogs, and ''Lincoln's
pups and their love for the #dogs'' and
pups was exactly equal to their love for
the assassinated President. One copless than
a year ago, expressed his feelings in noto to
