November rs, 1866.
The papers NV the country are very
generally discussin the question,
:" Shell the Dimokratic party live or
die?" wich, when we take into con-
sideration the fact that the corpse is
afore US, seems to me hoiier mockery,
and heartless trifin with the feelins
NV the friends of the deceast Their

choos. z
The Chicago Times and yarius uther
papers are adyocatin the ice Nv flop
pinSover to niger suffrage. i hev let
my Websterian intellek lite onto this
subjek at varius times, and tn more |
hev considered it, the more I am sat
listed that itsawon't do. ; A naber NV
mine wunst he'd the stumick axe, and
applied to me for a remedy. In a

ger suffrage, wich is rank pizen, would
end the trubbles NV the Dimocrisy, but
woodent it end Dimocrisy also? We
mite die gracefully ez Dimocrats, but
would our resurrecshun ez lAblishn-
lists be certain? Woodent the people,

My objections are these: I

with niger suffrage, for the reason
that eff the people desire it they d

that they mite be ashoored NV gettin

idee is, we'd ketch ,emr on the score
that the trash materially gravitates to
u.s. We are to late for this. The
Niger jus now is lookina up-not

into that other world wheri pollytix

no pertikeler good, ez) Ifknowfguy. to
be told that the ,Dimocricy hev. elected
ther President by niger votes--that
intelligence woodn't supply the place
Nv the water I shood be calm for.
Its instant relief we need, and eff
life is ever pumped into the carcass
afore us, it must. be done to wunst. I
hev an ice for the salvation Nv the

lease nv power for years-MExIco.
Here is suthin feasible. Let the
South adopt the Constitooshnal,
Amendment to wunst, providin Con-
gress will knock out the third secshun,
wich disfranchis the heft NV us who
are fit for Congress, and also repeel
the test oath, and Immediately let
johnson annex Mexico. How will it
stand then? We hev ten States out.
wich we ken depend upon. Ken
lucky, Delaware, and Maryland make
thirteen; and Mexico kin be cut up
into twenty more, OF thirty, for that
matter, glvin US clean majority in
the SENT, House, and EIectraI Kol-

what do we want NV voters who kin

pie begun to understand us. Solong
ez they took things on trust, it wuz ali
right, But when they begun to ques-

good thing in the abstrack, but you
must be modrit in its yoose. s.it -
