But all this wuz spilled the next

ded the papers out to EN- with im-

Deliberately, he pulled out Nv his

perfoosely headed in this wise:

rem in the North. Yoo'r doublin our
troubles, and maxim our burdens har-

where there amt no niggers, and how
much wood it benefit US down here,
where there's millions Nv EN-! Can't
700 see it =? We can't play the same
game on the niggers that we used to
play on the sturdy yeomanry Nv Berks
county, Pennsylvany, land other local
tiles. On all questions heretofore the
Dimocrisy hez allowed libral license.
We hev bin Free Trade in Moo York,
and Tariff in Pennsylvany the same
year, and we Good do it. The Democ-
risy didn't git their asshoorence8
from papers, OWN to their inability
to perooze EN- rapidly, it bein so long
afore they got word spelled out that
they forgot the one precedin 1t, wich
destroyed the connexion, the contin-
uity Nv the narrative, ef may 50
speak, and wat we told EN- wuz gos-
pei. That won't do with the nigger
down here. He reads, he does and
eff he don't there's alluz every where

reads for him, and they know jist ez

he's to be a man and a brother there.
Eff the Dimocrisy must hev a race to
look down to, let EN- turn their attcu-
shun to the Chinese or the lnjun, but
from this time out the nigger is sa'
cred.
