JoLIET.-The crowd wuz immense.
The peasantry, ez tho train approached,
rent the air with shouts NV "Grant p His
potency, the President promptly acknow-
ledged the compliment. He wuz sadriicin
hisslf for them who he'd made greater
sacrifcesp He he'd bin Alderman NV his
native town and Vice Prcsident--he wuz
too modest to make speech, but eff he
wuz Joodis Iskariot, who wuz the Saw

and hed't found none so far. He left IN

observed in the crowds q large proper
tion NV red nosses and hats with their
tops off. l noticed the houses unpainted,
with pig pens in front NV EN-, and what
is more, Iobserved that crowds compli-
ment yoo direct, instead nv doing it, ez
heretofore, over Grants shoulders. The
Nights of the Golden Cirkle, which |
spect is the identical cirkle you've bin
swinging around lately, love yoo and ap-
proach yoo confidently"
The President brisked up, and from
this to Indianapolis he spoke with foo
idity never observed in him before |
may say, to use medikle term, that he
had hemorrhage NV words, AT the lat
ter city our reception was the most fat
rim Nv eny we have experienced. The peo-
pie, when the President appeared on the
balcony NV the Bates House, yelled so
yociferously for Grant, that tho President
when he stepped forward to acknowledge
the compliment, coodent be heard at ALL
He waved his hat, and the more he waved
the more complimentary the crowd be-
came. Grant Grant they yelled, and
the more the President showed himself,
the more they yelled Grant, until over
powered by the warmth NV the recep-
shun, and unwillin to expose his health,
the President retired without singing a
speech at EN-, but entirely satisfied that
the people wuz with him.
The next mornin the office-holders NV
the State, with the people, assembled,
and he made his regler speech to EN-,
witch appeared to be gratifyin to both
him and them. The President does not
like to sleep with an undeliverd speech
on his mental stumick. 1t gives him the
nitemare.
Here l left the party, for a short time
that mite go home and attend to my
official dooties. There is five Northern
families near the Corners wich must hey
notice to leave, and eight niggers t.
hang. he'd orders to report to the par
ty somewhere between Louisville and
Harrisburg, witch 1 shall do, ez travelir
by ORDER get mileage and SIGH.
