Brick Dust for Sore Heads.

This reminds us of little story !
Say, you radical, nigger-loving, Anna
Dickinson. Fred. Douglass, Ben. Butler
style of republicans, how DO, you ike
johnson? How do you like going out
of the Union for a President? Youmen
who preach that Gods controlling events
political as well as eternal? How do
You like Tennessee craftsmanship How
does it compare with fat boat style {?
And God said let there be light, and
there was light! This is bible.
"And being in torment, they lifted up
their eyes and saw not Abraham inthe
bosom of Lazarus, but Andrew johnson
in the White House. Pretty picture,
isn't If, you freedom shrieking, press
mobbing, democrat hanging, cotton steal
-inE, women robbing, plunder loving,
prison advocating, democrat abusing,
ballot box stufing, Office holding sepul-
chres full of niggers bones
How do you like the new President? ?
Wouldn't you choke gently on Booths
windpipe if he we're still alive? How
do you like this going into the Democratic
party for horse to hitch up with your
mule? The seed of white men shall
bruise the head of repubHcanism, and
johnson shall be next President. Verify
we say unto you now is the time to re-
pent as a bad time for you fellows
to swap horses when crossing a stream!
Why don't you republican wench hug
ging freedom shrieking, law breaking,
union hating, members of the only treas
enable party in the Union, get drunk and
narade with torches? Stand by the
President The President is the govern
ment, you know
Blessed doctrine thought divine
But this President dodge is fnel
He who speaks against the President
is traitor. Let traitors be hung! Why
don't you get drunk, burn printing Offices,
murder a few democrats, throw a few
printing presses into the street, stop
your newspaper, hold prayer meetings in
barns and get drunk as owls, as you did
when the other President spoke p
i" Who's pin here since Psh pin gone I?
Who elected johnson ? Why in thunder
don't you get out the Wide Awakes,
burn democrats in efigy, shoot at them
as they 90 around corners, waylay them
in port Offices shout rah for Link
Johnson, and hold fast to the prize you
found down south.
''Way down south in the land of Dixiel"

Why don't you cackle when your Presi-
dent lays an egg? Why don't you cele-
brate, jubilate, investigate, operate and
the arid tonsils irrigate as you used to
once ?"
:" Come ye sinners poor and needy"
Weak and wounded, sick and sore
johnson ready stands to save you
Now this cruel war is DER!
Why don't you laugh-smile-talk,
say something, if it is not so ALFRED
smart2 Gracious, but you fellows are
busy about now This is your Presi-
dent God gave him to you. You Sc
