piece NV tufuy ytOOT. MiTterS is very
much like the gruntin swine-uv yoose
only after death, and then they are
only ft for present yoOse. However
sweet they may be while fresh, they
won't do to salt down. The story NV
his wrongs did all very well for two
or three campaigns, but the people
hev he'd enuff NV it. 1t sours on ther
stumiks. Its got to be to the Dem
ocracy, wat hash is to boarders. 1t
obtrudes itself. When there is a
Senator to elect, up comes this martyr
aud busts in among the wires like a
bull in china shop, demandin it ez
the price NV his sufferins for the coz.
Its all very well when the martyr hez
suthin to recommend him beside his
martcrdom, otherwise he becomes q
noosence NV the first magnitude wich
calls for speedy and effectooal abate'
ment.
Wich, then, shell we hev for our
President :? There is one man, upon
whom the minds NV the Dimocrisy
NV the country all center. Need L,
WHO write ''P. NJ" after my name,
say / allood to A. johnson. He is
our rock and our cheefest trust, and
In him only hev we refuge. 1t seems
clear to me that he hez all the quail
tiles for successful candidacy. He
wuz born Nv poor parence, in poor
year. and in very poor State. His
father died when he wuz so young
that he didn't remember him for
suthin like fifty years att and he
wuz left poor ortun to make his way
alone in the world. He referred to
this interestin fact in his inaugural
speech on the 4th NY March, 1865
He made nv himself a tailor and ac-
locally worked ON the board for a
livin. and read histry while q workin
industrusly at his trade. For the
benefit NV the people l wood state a
fact that may not be generally known,
that lie, from this honorable beginnin
hcz swung around the entire cirkle NV
ofiishel honor, holdin, at diffrent
times, every offs in the gift NV the
people, from Alderman NV his native
village up to the Presidency. Eff l
remember, he incidentally referred to
these facts in speech he made
wunst.
There are other reasons for givin
him the nominashen, NV witch these
are the most prominent:
FL l. Eff he isn't nominated and elec-
It'd, Seward, Weed, Raymond, Ran
dali and Secretary Wells will to wunst
go back to the Kepublikln patty.
q He hez the affecshns NV nearly
every offs holder in the YoOnited
States, and wat a fite they wood make
to retane their posishens.
3. His DemOcrisy is entirely salts
factory to me. He temporarily
abberated, but when he returned, he
wuz fiercer than ever. He clambered
a long way up the mountain NV Alb
lishen, it is troo, but when he fell, he
only sunk deeper In the mire NV De
mocrisy. We need never fear tC
trust sich q man.
4. He hez incurable hatred Nv
the Ablishnists. When they wooden
receive him corjelly on his various
toors, he swore eternel hostility tt
em. Hence we kin depend upon hi:
bein troo to US.
3. Ez further guaranty NV faith
fulnis, l may say that / hev it from
the best authority that he takes only
whisky strate, heving given over al
them demoralizin fancy beverage.
wich sedoost him while he wuz in th,
bonds nv Inikity and the gall NV bit
terness.
Ther are other reasons, but thes,
are sufficient. Let US put onto tn,
ticket with him Henry Clay Dean
and the arrangement is complete
We hev the North and South repre-
sented, and the intellectual and non
intellectual wings NV the Oimocrisy
l love Dean. Ez he stands afore al
aujence in all his greasiness, fee
that there is sutEin in him wich W,
must admire. / close this articl
with suggestin the follerin ticket:
For President,
ANDROO JOHNSON.
(The pride NV the Postmasters }
For Vice President,
HENRY CLAY DEAN.
Respectfully,
A kentucky Postmaster.
/ shel sign it thus so that in cas-
any other man succeeds, the author
ship kin be denied.
PETROLEUM V. Massey, p. NJ,
(Wicb is Postmaster.
