Of the Jernal. rote a artickel expressin my
vues intendin it for the ''Satanic Mesengur,"
of Fremont. took it to Mr.. Van Mocking-
bird, who eddas that air sheat. After skanin
me hastily, taking good care not to look at me
when lookt at him, Che hez a kountenans
which shows trasis of something stronger than
sulfur water, with eye ofa brite hopper kuler,)
he sed: Whear do yew hale from? l replide;
am prOwd sa cum from Hesvil. He then askt
mi buzinis. ] exhibited my manyuskript.
Handin it to him sed, triumfantly: lust CLANS
over them pages. Returnin the role me he
sed solemly: Bruther pleEe rede fur me. am
not gifted with that dangerous attanement l
then red 2 him mi papur.
When had got thru, Van sed: Duz them
lines stait the TRUTH sed, yes. Stickin his
segar in the other knorDer his mouth, cross
ing his legs and propin himself behind with
his kane, and lookin strate at somthin besides
me, he spoke as follers: rejeckt your produx-
ion. You rite well, and powerful, butt in con-
finin yourself to the trewth you hav VIOLATED
the fundamental pur-rinsipul of the Mesinger
The demands of the sDemmokratik party en-
fatikally Fekwire as little alusion to the trewth
as possibul. Wei kant be scrupulus abowt fax
If we only awl unite in the cry, and do not
allood to trewth or 2 the histry of the past, we
shell be abul, in fu short munts, 2 furmly con-
vints our folders that it was hully the Union
party of the North which opposed the war. /
no, sed he, tru Demmokrats, who rede mi pa
pur, who onestly spose the Dimmocrasy chose
loyal men of the anti-slavery States who was
rebels agin the Konstitooshun. He then went
on2 explane how he fritened returned solgers
with an old story abowt the nigger, and what
nice thing it wood be to repudiate the national
det, which he affirmd was made by unholy
war. He wound up bi saing it was ungodly
bad sine, in a geniwine Demmokrat, as klam-
ed 9 be, to be trubblin hisself with fax.
While admirin Mr. Van Mawkinbird s lilly
praktikal koarse, and his eminent fitnes for his
stashun, felt hurt by the rejeckshun of mi
piece. Awthurs air sensitive being, and it
teeches them very kwick 2 site their produk-
shuns.
l Sc bi mi papur, (I take the Mesinger,) that
Koneticut has gone Demmokratick. / was
trewly glad 2 see this korreckshun, for bi the
offishal returns tha had bin put bi sum thow-
sands for the ablishinists. But this paragraff
was dygreshun.
At our resent eleckshun Hesvil went amost
unanimusly agin niger sufferage. We triumft
by hevy majority. 1t is now definitly set
tuld that the niger shant vote hear any vase.
AS we hav achieved CRATE vicktory in the
eleckshun of our talentid candydate for repre-
sentativ, we expeck at an erly da to have gov
erment bonds hully taxed for stat purposes,
thus don ava with snuther produck of this alb
lishn war. j. Parks, / do not dowt, will see
to it that poor men Of this kownty shant pa all
the taxes in the fewter The ritch men hav got
to pa a few of the taxis now.
1t duz me good to see how the septer of pow
er is parsin ava from yu ablishinists. The
Demmockrasy has sent forth its deere, and sed
Depart frum of1s awl ye workers of ablishin;
awl ye who think niggers newman, git behind
us.
In the hope of speedily regeneratid nashun,
POLITICALLY spoken,)
