When Job had lost all his worldly goods, his
sheep and camels and oxen and asses, when
the great wind coming from the wilderness had
smitte9 the four corners Of his house SO that 1t
fell upon his young men and destroyed them,
and when his person had become-covered with
sores from the sole Of his foot TO the crow4,
of his head, SO that he was an offence to tho
eye and the nostril, his wife, finding him
ah incumbrance and nuisance to himself and
everybody else, gave him this piece of advice,
Course God and de-" She honestly believed
that there was nothing else for him to do.
The last organ Of the Northern copperheads
remembers the advice Of Jobs wife and is dis
posed to follow 1t. Through the instrumental
ity Of Satan, who Is "going to and fro in tho
earth and walking up and down in it" In 1867,
as he was 1920 years before Christ, the copper
heads have lost all their worldly goods,
and the great wind from the wilderness has
destroyed their young men, and their body
has become offensive through corruption, and
their heads are very sore, and they sit among
the ashes; and 50 their last organ, finding itself
in God-forsaken condition, curses George
Washington and prepares to give up the ghost
In its malignant trade this copperhead
grumbler can find no virtue in the Father Of
his country. 1t says :-"It would be difficult
to name an idea in our politics or feature Of
our government for which we are indebted to
him. Nor is there any state paper Of surpass-
ing ability that can be fairly called bis His
farewell address, the most celebrated Of his pro-
ductions, the only one, In fact, which is much
remembered, was written for him by Others"
Slavery, which was once the idol of the copper
heads, is urged against Washington by the
last organ as an offence, and it is said, :" the
fact that W ashington emancipated his slaves u
his will is no alieviation for, in the first place.
he had no children to whom they could havs
descended, and in the next place it takes away
the excuse Of ignorance"
