The Phatf Man.
BY JOSH BILLINGS.


There is only three things that belong
to other folks that | ever envy, and ther
il virtu, flesh and understanding.
/ supoze it il possibel for a man tew
manufacter his own virtew, and improve
hiz stock ov understanding; but he kant
kiTer hiz long lean boldly or bones with
a soft and pulpy cushion ov flesh, that ia
fun tn set down on. !.
/ never cum akross phatt man neetly
dressed, with hiz silk and shining face
cut generously out ov warm meat, and
gashed with pair ov smackiug. lips, az
smoothe and az gently red az the doors
way tew sea shell, and garnished with
CRATE pair ov JUICY eyes, that air foreves
stopping over with gud nat9F; but WHAT
i want to-call him unkle, apd-kiss him
for mi ant. i.
And then thar (emdonpint, i bcleave
yu call it) so outspoken, so full or good
things, IL equal tu dinner, fur q leen
devil, like me, tn lux at even. !.
| kant tell what makes one man so
phatt. and the next one so like an empty
stocking, or manakin In q narrow bolss
ter, unless it IL that the phatt souls are
| like mountain spring, fed from within,
until they kant hold no more, aud then
run over the brim, tn make others hap
py.
Did ye ever kno phatt man tew COM
nit scwicide guess ye never did they
luv gravy tu well for that. :
Shaikspear loved old Jack Fallstaff
moro than emmy piktur he ever drew, and
tho he filled him up tew the edge with
deyiltry, and stale heroism, and mutch
sack, and but little bread, he made him
phatt, and everybody would be very
sorry now tew hav this good -natured hill
lock oy flesh graded down out ov thare
memory. !. Il ss
When Shaikspear wanted sum pisen,
he sought out, you remember, a lean
apothekary, who kept grocery ov beg
carly boxes.
Did you ever heer ov phatt man be-
ing hung !? I guess not. They sumtimes
destroy plum pudding, and billed OK, but
they never murder emmy thing that amt
gud tu eat.
That must hav been phatt French-
man who exclaimed upon his fust visit
tew this kuntry, "By gar WHAT q peo-
pie Ten thousand different religions, and
only one gravyp
i In konklusion, j never knu but one
lphatt skoolmaster, and he want good for
|enny thing, only tew slide down hill with
the boys. This satisfze me that phatt X
only another name for virtew.

WENDELL PHILLIPS AND GENERAL
ROUSSEAU.

In a recent letter in regard TO the Rousseau
and Grinnell difficulty, Wendell Phillips
says:
"General Rousseau alludes to the fact that Iowa
has left rinnen out Of her Congressional deegs-
ton. To the utter and damning disgrace Of that
state. this is true She enjoys the bad eminence
Of being In. rst free State that has ever thus pub
Iiely endorsed Southerners insult to one OF her
REPRESENTATIVES. If lived on her soil should
make one effort TO out this stain, and, II
failed. quit the spaniel State forever.
We like Wendell Phillips for his fearless
Independence in the expression and advocacy
of his own convictions Of truth, and justice,
and liberty. And the people Of Iowa, on
his receat visit, treated him with marked
consideration and respect, because OF their
high appreciation Of this admirable and char
acteristc quality OF the celebrated advocate
of freedom.
We regret. therefore, tina, he should take
upon himself, hastily and groundlessy, to
condemn. in bitter terms of scorn. the con
duet of the people of Iowa, and to apply
contemptuous epithets to the State.
AS u lfi4t W tHc CbNiS
it might be sufficient simply to say, that the
Republican Convention, which nominated
the present member as a candidate for Con
, gress, did not have the merits Of Mr. Grin
nell enforced Gaming before them: because
i: had not then come of.
Again; rs Iowa may still have chance
to incur 'utter and danning disgrace, II
the estimation Of Wendell Phillips, We woulC
suggest TO him that IT IS the part of wisdom
: to learn something about facts and circum
/, stances. before pronouncing such utter anS
! unmitgated ansthemas against State OF
e whose record the Republican party has no
: ouly never brought a stain, but whose banner
! borne by her gallant braves, waved IN irl
8 umph IN the front ranks OF the hosts OF tn
u Union in the carnage of Southern batti
: fields; while it was ever held proudly an
I firmly aioit in the forefront Of the cham
g pious Of freedom ia the Council Halls oil III
q National Capital. Whatever, therefore ma
}, be the action of the people OF Iowa IN tn
J, future, we venture to say that her reputatlo
will remain uutarnished. even should Wen
e dell Phillips endorse at leisure what he hs
!. uttered IN haste.

again, or II We cannot do that we will At
least take away their access to the ballot
box. Our property Is alOo held out to them
as the sure reward of their fdelity to the
Radical cause. Such falsehood and base in
centives are made the tempting lure to their
support, These can only be combatted by
the greater bride Of what inures to their
higher and more lasting advantage. The
advantage of such bribery is UNNECESSARILY
greater on our side than theirs, and we only
need TO gain the black mans confidence to
convince him that this is so. But 70 coun-
tervail all the undermining work which the
Radicals have prosecuted so long, and are
still at, our people must organize. The few
Radicals in this county are already banded
together in an association, that has its secret
signs, grips and passwords in common with
the "Grand Army Of the Republic" Such
compact organization, however small in
numbers can do more with their already es-
tablished means of access to the negroes,
through yankee preachers and school marms,
that are now, and long have been, in their
employ, than all the multitude can effect
against its insdious appliances, by loose, i'll
concerted, and distracted counsels. ] do moi
mean that we should oppose the operation;
of any such infamous secret order, by like
detestable organized resistance, but think
that knowing such a conclave of conspira-
tors against the well being of civil and polit.
ical society to be in existence, we all SHOULD
seek to counteract its baleful influence upor
the poor ignorant negro, by a thorough un
derstanding and exposure of its design. TX
use common cavalry expression during tn,
late war, the Radicals have got the "bulge'
upon us, not so much from forcthought upor
their part, as from the necessities of some o
their members, and our own folly combined
Thus some of the most degraded and unscru
pulous of their party have long been usinl
the pulpit and schoolroom against u.s.
Through these powerful channels Of religion
and education, the meanest Of their meal
adventures have distilled their "cusred hen
bane" into the ears of the illiterate negro
But see; Mr.. Editor, that again / hav
transcribed my prescribed limits, withou
getting at the heart of this matter, and
must, perforce, end with hoping that tn
people of Montgomery and of Tennesse
will discomft the tyrants that lord it owe
her, by wise use of the means that wer
intended for our overthrow.

THE DESTITUTE SOUTH.

In November last, the Christian Church
established an agency in this city, at the
store of Metealf Bros, 81 Broad street, for
the purpose of soliciting, receiving, and for
wardinP supplies to the destitute poor of the
Sou.h. Mr.. V. NJ. Metcalf was appointed
agent, and since that time, has been very
active in the work assigned him. Eight
thousand dollars in money has been con-
tributed by Churches of the Christian de-
nomination in Kentucky, Tennessee, and
other States, the largest amount being for
warded by the Christian Church at Clarks-
vile. That Church contributed twelve hun
dred dollars in cash. The Church at Spring
field, H., forwarded six hundred dollars
Aside from the stores purchased with this
money, portion Of which is still in the
hands Of the agent, there have been sent
into Alabama, Mississippi, Georgia, Florida
and a portion OF Virginia, twelve hundred
sacks of corn, one hundred and fifty boxes
of clothing, one hundred barrels OF potatoes
peas, beans, etc. fifty casks and boxes oil
bacon, and variety of other stores.
At least three thousand dollars worth Of
stores are at present on hand awaiting trans
portation, and will be sent through as soon
as the railroads can take them. Contribu
tons of provisions and money are being re-
ceived almost daily. Five hundred dollar.
was received last week, and two thousand
bushels of corn are now on the way TO THU
