Nasty on Suffrage.

Nasty on Suffrage.
In his last from "Confedrit54 Roads,
this Reverend apostle Of simon-purl
/ Democracy gives the following view
on the Democratic negro-sufrage hob
by:
The papers Nv the country are very
4 generally discussin the question: "She
the Democratic party live or die,
wich when we take into considerasheI
the fact that the corpse is afore us
seems to me hOller mOckery, and q
heartless triflin with the feelins Nv
the friends nv the deceast. Their aint
no yoose Nv talIrin Nv its fucher, coz its
In its fueher now, and a tune stone
mite ez well be put up, regardlis of ex.
f pense, commonwealth its virchOos.
The Chicago Times and various 9th.
/ er papers are advOcatin the lice w
foppin over to nigger suffrage. / hey
/ let my Websterian intellek lite onto
this subiek at various times, and the
more / heV considered it, the more
am satisfied that it wont do. A nabeI
Nv mine wunst he'd the stumick-ake
and applied to me fer a remedy. In a
/ spirit Nv jooke larity / told him that
/ strickanine wood cure that eZ well e2
all other phisiele ills. The poor fel.
/ low not seein it wuz a joke, took an
ounce or two, and need I state the re-
suit? He sleeps In the valley. Mig
ger suffrage, wich is rank pizen, wood
! end the troubles Nv the Democrisy,
/ but WOOdent it end Democrisy also?
] We mite die gracefully ez Democrats,
/ but wood our resurrection ez Ablishi-
nists be certain? WOodent the people
when we are wunst entombed forget to
awaken us?
I My objections is these:
/ 1. We cant gobble Ablishen votes
with niger suffrage, for the reason
/ that eff the people desire it they d
probably go to the inventors thereof,
that they might be ashoOred Nv gettin
/ the genOOine article.
! 2. We can't get the nigger after he
/ is a man and a brother. The Times
/ ijee Is, we'd ketch EN- on the score
that the trash materially gravitates to
US. We are too late for this. The
niger just now is lookin up--not down,
and If the tax WIZ taken off Nv Whis-
key, so ez to bring that essenshel to
! Democratic success wunst more with
in our means, and we shOod devote
ourselves enthusiastically to the work
we Woodent be able to get EN- down to
our level In twenty years.
AfOre that time / shell hev gone into
that other world where pollytiX wont
trouble me, and if the orthodox relij-
US beleefs Nv the day is correct, in the
department Nv the other world in Wich
I shell pull up, there will be a strong
Democratic majority. Ez L lift up my
eyes from thence, it viii do me no per-
tikeler good, ez / know Nv, to be told
that the Democracy hev elected ther
President by niger votes5-that intel
ligence woOdent supply the place Nv
the water | shOod be callin for.
Its instant releef we need, and if
life IS ever pumped into the carcass
afore US, it must be done to Wunst I
hev an lice for the salVashen nv the
party, Wich, if acted on, will give US a
lease Nv power for years-MEXICO.
Here Is suthin feasible. Let the
South adopt the COnstit0oshnel Amen
ment to wunst, providin Congress will
knock out the third section Wich dis
franchises the heft NV US who are fit
for Congress, and also repeel the test
oath, and immejitly let johnson annex
Mexico. How will it stand then2 We
heV ten States now, Wich we kin de-
pend on. Kentucky, Delaware and
Maryland make thirteen, and Mexico
kin be cut up into twenty more, or
thirty for that matter, giYin us a clean
majority in the Senit, House and
Electoral College. / hev let my intel
lex out onto this subjeck and amt
mistaken In Mexico is the precise
populashen we kin best work upon
They can understand our speakers,
sez one objector. Very good. I ad-
nit It, aud what do we want Nv voters
who kin understand US? The down
fall Nv Democrisy cOmmenst the mint
the people begun to understand u.s.
So long as they took things on trust, it
Wuz all right, but when they begun to
question, the jig Wuz up. Intelligence
is a good thing in the abstract, but you
must be mOdrit in its yoOse.
Enuff Nv US wood heV to emigrate
thithcr, NV course, to be sent back to
Washington. Seward and I, for in
stance, wood go to the SENT from Chi
ahuahua, Doolittle and DR.. Olds, Nv
Ohio, from San Juan, Henry Clay,
Dean and Cowan from Tamaulipas,
John MOrrisey and Randall from Mat
amoras, Vallandigham and Slocum
from Tehauntepec, Custar and Beech
er-no they've gone back on Us-Jim
Stedman and Jesse D. Brite from Pue-
bla. ct settry.
There wood be room for every one
uvthe Dimocrats North in these States.
Their wood be sixty seats in the SENT
and three hundred In the House to fill,
besides the State ofises. The hundreds
Nv thousands Nv Dimocrats now mOur-
in for offises, and who can't be sup
plide, wood here find Openins. Think
Nv it Thirty States turned over to
US, with people wich coodent compeet
with US for the offises. My sole ex-
pands with the thot The field wood
be a rich one for Androo Jaxon Rog-
ers to stump, for the people, not IN
derstandin a word Nv what he wuz
sayin and havin a high opinion Nv the
Amerikins, wood think he wuz talkin
sence. And His Fggslency, the Pres
ident, what a chance it would be for
him He Good hev Duglis dug up and
re- buried at Monterey, so ez he Good
heY a ezcoose for maxim tour to his
tomb, or, eff the friends Nv the states
man objected to that, he Good 60 to
Chicago by the way NV the City NV
Mexico, and Good make his speech
at the way stations without fear. The
Mexikans wood reserve the constoO-
shen and stars gladly end eH they aanat4
understand the language they woodent
his speech with peels of latter
ez they did on his late memorable toor
thro Moo York, Ohio, Michigan, Illi-
noy, ct settry, the remembrance NV
wich, even at this day, sends a thrill
NV anguish thro the Presidenshel brest /
wich even the triumph in Delaware I
and Maryland cannot and does not
soothe.
