Cease, Vipers; Ye Gnaw File!
In the last Mud-Machine, some
low, scurulous blackguard, under
the cognomen of unprotected Wo-
man." seems to be seriously trou-
bled about our charges for services
as an Attorney. Well, we have no
objections to have it understood
that we work at our business for
pay. This the brainless ass of a
writer, calls stealing. Of course,
it was not to be expected that any
of this Disorganizer's clique could
distinguish between stealing and
making an exhorbitant charge for
services; which was evidently the
the intention of the writer. But
let us see. He says some woman
got "a bad ten-dollar bill passed
on her, and aohen she acas told 1t
was bad she returned 1t to the person
OF ,ohom she got 1t, and he did not
take 1t back" Indeed She return
ed it, and he didn't take it. How
did she return it then! Now, we
don't recOllect of ever collecting
back ten-dollar bill for any wo-
man, from any person, since we
have been in the county, and we
here assert, that We believe it a lie
manufactured of whole cloth. AT
the same time, fiye-dollars might
have been reasonable fee; it de.

Break UP He'll Itself.

An old preacher in Western New
York, who was being persuaded by
some Of his churchmen, during the
political excitement in that State,
last fall, to join the Radical party
said:
"No my brethren, l can't join
that party, because all the Aboli-
tionists in the country are in it; and
Abolitionism, my bretheren, has
done wonderful sight of harm
among the people. 1t has hurt
many shepherds and scattered
many hocks. 1t got into the Meth
odist Church and broke that up. 1t
got in among the Presbyterians and
split them in two; and it got into
the Government and broke the old
Union to pieces. And, my breth-
ern, don't know of anything it is
good for but to break down and
break up. And if you have any
enmity against the old boy, | ad-
wise you to send AbolitionismInto
his dominions, and it will break
hell up itself in less than six weeks"

Something to Wear!


MISS FLORA McFLMsEY-one of the fair,
Raised great muss because she'd nothing
to wear!
Such woeful condition we're sure all muSs
pity,
To be without clothing and live in a city :
But II she had known our friend RICH
MAN up street,
In clothing superb she could have fitted up
neat
Not exactly the garb that her aex are won't
to wear:
But better even thus than that she should
so bare!
To the gents of our county We would say,
one and all,
For your clothing, fail not to give RICH
MAN call;
In prices he'll suit yOu--in style ard in
grade,
For all other establishments he "layi la
the shade"
His stock of hats, caps, boots, shoes and
CATERS, all told,
In this market, so cheap, ne'er before have
been sold;
He has trunks and valises, cravats and neck
ties,
And al else in his line that good taste
could devise
Then i've him call, nor wait to be told,
Thathis goods were all purchased with sil-,
yer and gold,
Which enables him now to out-sell tho
best,
In coat, pants or hat, even down to a vest.
Remember the place: in Davis Block,
Just one door east Of our friend John s.
