TOO MUCH,

Two colored men, one black as
midnight and the other somewhat
faded, got into quarrel, when the
black one called the other "d--d
black niger" A similar case occur
rcd between two of our veteran Cops
the other day. They had wordy
spar, and got very warm. One OF
them called the other n "miserable
Copperhead," supposing that he had
put in n clincher; but great was his
nstonishment to receive the retort,
"you Id Andy Johnson turn coat"
He cooled down and owned himself
beaten, and said "that is too much,
Let us go and drink, and you'll take
it back, won't you?"
They drank and gave the following
toast; "IIere's to Andy--may he sue
ceed in splitting the Abolitionist par
ty and give us the power, then he
may go to the tailor's board and
spend the rest of his days mcnding
breeches for Southern niggers."
