The Papers Nv the country are very generally

The Chicago Times and various other papers

fellow, not sein il WIZ a joke, took an ounce OF

Afore that time l shell hev gone into that other
world where polytix wont trubble me, and if the
orthodox reliTus beleeis Of the day are correct, in
the depaEment Of the tother world in witch | sfvl

Here i suthin feasible. Let the South adopt

WIDEN Congress viii knock out the third seeshun,
witch disfranchises the heit nv US who are fit for
Congress, and also repeel the test oath, and i'm
meiitly let johnson annex Mexico. How will
it stand then? We hev ten States out, witch we
kin depend upon. Kentucky. Delaware and
Maryland make thirteen, and Mexico kin be cut
up into twenty more, or thirty for that matter.

We want Nv voters who kin understand us? The
downfall NV Dimocrisy commenst the mint the
people begun to understand US. 80 long ez they
took things on trust. it wuz all right but when
they begun to question, the gig wuz up. Intel
ligence is a good thing in the abstrack, but you
must be moderate in lis yoose -.
Enuf Nv US wood hev to ~emigrate thither, Nv

There would De room Tor every one Nv the

The people NV the North wood receive the

declined To give six months credit for Il small
stock of goods to a friend of mine on my indOrse-

This is the only hope of the Dimocrisy. The
hev ben brought face to face with slavery.
AMI they smasht it. They hev ben brought face
10 face with niger equality, and they don'tscare
It it at all. They woz brought up before South
.rn superiority and they punctured that. They
yOOk some rather extensive tOOrs through the
south, and somehow they come home with sIngler
IDEAS, and wondered that they had been fooled 50
ong by such emptiness. The Booth speculashun
