ton to Remove the College
Rejected.
WASHINGTON, April Z, 1867.
The news Nv the election in Connecti-
cut created the most profound sensashen
at the Corners. 1t cum to US 50 unexpect-
ed, so like a clap Nv thunder from a clear
sky, or rutker so like a CLEAN nv sunlite
thrO g mas Nv overpowrin black Clouds,
so like the first streak nv sunlite in the
mornin after a long mite Nv eolera morbus
with no brandy in the house, that we wuz
oVerpowered with it. The Corners hewitt
experience SIGH a satisfactory spasm Nv Joy
since the reject Nv the news Nv the Fort
Piller affair. It predoosed q very singler
effect on Deekin Program, When I cum
up to him with the news, he wuz engaged
with all the elokence he possest a tryIn to
~covince q Niger, witch formerly belonged
TO him, that, after all, the Southerners
themselves wuz the only ones witch the
niggers Good trust, and that when the
time cum for EN- to exersise the Elective
Franchise eff they he'd any regard for tn If
own interests they wood turn their back
on the Ablishinists, who Euz, to a man,
hory headed deceevers, and trust them and
them only who knowd EN-.
'Samyooel," seed tho Deekin, in a af-
feeshunit tone, with n hand on the mig
gers shoulder, "why shoodent we love 700?
700 are bone Nv our bone, and flesh NV
u flesh we are Nv one blood" this
remark the Deekin got into the habit
some years ago Nv gittin off when speekin
av the Dimocrisy North, and alluz uses it.
It is ruther effective tho in this instance,
eff 1 he'd bin in his place, 1 shoodent hev
slung it out, OWN TO the pecoolisr con-
struckshen wich mite be put onto it,
'sand our interests is one ~Samyooel."
s'Deekin,n SEE !, interruptin him
"Deekinl Connecticut hez spoken in thun-
der tones, and hez gone Dimocratic -
"Wat!" SEE he, "Dimocratic I"
tfVeriIy," SEE /. GA Governor, and
three congressman out of four"
Their wuz q sudden rupter Nv the
friendly relashens existin between the
Deekin and Samyooel the dark complex
toned. If he wuz Nv the Deekin's flesh
the Deekin wuz in favor of mortifyln it,
for never wuz flesh so belabored ez wuz
that unfortunit chattel's. The flesh wuz
imejitly lasserated. He pitched into him
feroshus, and after pummeliu the aston
ished Aferkin. who didn't see why the re-
suit of . eleckshun shood work SIGH .
change, till he wuz out Nv breath, he con-
prest wat strength ri remainin, into one
Vigorous kick. e1elamin-
Take that, 700 black swindler. I've
talked sweet 10 700 under false pretenses,
I've bin betrayed into wastin soft sawder
onto q n~igger-into cosIin wher I heV q
ondeniable rite to command-into-"
"Wat does all dis mean; :" sed the Niger
family.
Mean! % sed I to him; my friend this
is the reaction we've heard so much about
its arriv. It means that there is 9 ex-
csedingly good chance Nv yoor bein re-
doost agin to yoor normal speer, Nv yoor
eomin down from the high hoss yooye bin
a ridin and in bein agin q servant onto
lyoor brethren. 1t means that Connecticut
hez spoken, and that yoor . good deal
more ~Valyooable to me % than 700 wuz
q hour ago. Go, my friend, and buy sslvC
for yoor brooses, for unless yoor heeld,
yoor valyoo will be less in the markIt,
Yoo'd be ashamed to sell for a low price

the occashun they wuz drinkin punche
made of Moo England rum, with small

I entered the room, and clasped me by on

''That wuz last yeer!" sed Seward angri

"FWell, perhaps it wuz. When did tina
State vote agin 2" asked he inn~ocently, Il
wich no anser wuz given. But very lttl
attention is paid 10 Secretary We.les b.
any one ceptin Seward, and the fact tina
he occasionally undertakes to keep hin
postid in current events is ginerally takel
ez evidence that he's breakin up. Poo
