THE CENTRAL NATIONAL UNION
CLUB.

THE CENTRAL NATIONAL UNION
CLUB.
1t is au old saying that great rcgues
and thieves always raise the cry of thiel
first to direct public attention from their
own villainy, as drunken man always
will swear every one else is drunk aud he
alone is sober. These axioms have been
verified most fully by the political career
of a few miserable contemplate creatures
in this county in the last few months
Beeiy Allison, Sore Heels DAVIS and that
sneak of Sirouse have been raising q
sreat fuss for mouths, ha'ging the SENT
MEL " tn infidelity to the party, and every
one connected with 1t, with rascality and
corruption. and to prove their zeal, got W
meeting to abuse johnson, and started ;
newspaper to break Johnson down in gen
eral, and Patterson in particular. Every
man of sense in the county knew the,
were acting the hypocrte and were SCI
of shameless scamps after pluudcr, re
gardless of party or principle. Like
every humbug, they got half dozen de
cent men to follow after them while thei,
once good character has been nearly sac
rfced to their verdancy. We hope thi:
severe lesson will learn them 10 rcmair
with their party and not imagine the wis
dom Of the world will die with them.
As the Republican failed to frighter
Johnson, they now fall down and worshi,
him, and beg some Of the crumbs tba,
fall from tt cir masters table. We trust
the friends of Iohpson will not be de
ceived by the profession Of these low
crovelling creatures They tried to break
Patterson down, and when they found
their opposition so coutemptibie as only
to excite ridicule, they fell down and of
fered to Sci; out their support and inta-
ence to him for bribe. but he spurned
them from his presence. Let them howl
away in their vile sheet. Their '..ougue
has lorg since ceased to be a slauder,"
and every issue OF their paper only adds
if possible to their infamy.
Sneak Strouse, Sore Heels Davis and
Beef Allison met on Saturday, May Goth
in dark cellar in Perrys-ile and organ
lied the National Union Club with sneak
Strouse as President and Sore-H Heels Da
Wis Secretary. 1t was very harmonious
meeting. Like the two tailors of London
who met and resolved that I'VE The peo-
ple," these fellows met unknown to the
citizens of perrysvile, and resolved that
If Andy johnson will give US an old bone
apiece we will support my policy" They
were afraid to meet in Miffiin and sneak ed
eff to Perrysvile and crawled into eel
lar, and thief like, MD from public gaze
Had the good people of Perrysville known
Of such conspiracy being laid within
their neat little town, no doubt they
would have treated the three rorthtes to a
coat of tar and feathers The friends OF
President johnson should have no conf
dence in such fellows. Their only object
is for plunder and revenge. Taey care
nothing about him. and have not sense
enough to understand his policy. They
must have plunder, and as they have been
spurned by the true Union party. they
now ho;e to deceive Mr.. johnson friends
into giving them office Sirouse always
did betray his party and his friends, and
will do go again if he gets chance. He
has tweed forced himself upon tie party
and has been trying every year to do it.
and because the party spurns him, he is
ready to help overthrow it. But he only
sinks himself lower if possible. lie wants
to 90 to the Senate. Begged for the
nomination in 1864 and wants it in 1867.
We hope he viii run as the candidate Of
the Allison party. He might get FIVE
votes, but he will have to watch or some
one will buy Allison, Davis and Strouse to
vote against Strelse, and theu he will onl "
get two votes. We nope the next time
the National Union Club meets i, will be
in public, So that we can all attend and
see how you look in your new harness.
