ooooS5vinced that it was his duty to improve
his time, and be REILLY President.
The consultation over the Proclamation
WIZ long and painful. Buckley, who is
now runnin the Government mostly, had
written the whereases, witch is the most NV
the document. Seward he'd tailed onto EN-
the Proclamation proper, witch wuz so small
ez TO give it a tad-polc appearance, and 1t
wuz to be discussed All NV EN- wuz in ia
vor NV it but me- Ez anxious ez | wuz for
the iberashen NV our friends in the South
ern States ez anxious ez | wuz to give that
blessed saint Deekin Pogram, chance to
wallop a niger agin afore he died, without
bein interfered with by bloo-coated hire

"Go on with the dream, " sed his EggIen-

interpret IT,
kin you assoom the character of Joseph,
and carry it out, said Randall, "with Mrs.
Cobb in Washington"
This interupshen prevented me from mar
attn my dFeem, 50 ] resoomed at the pint at
which wuz interrupted. "And my opin-
ion is the opinion NV all yoor appintees.
The offs holder is naturally aconservative.
Agitashun, my liege, mite shake us out Nv
our places On 700 we hang-yoo are our
anker and our cheefest trust
And nv remarks, witch | delivered with
a trembling voice, and with teers a rollin
down my fGrrowed cheeks-l felt the sol
emnitv of the occasion, for what Good / do
age-wuz received with peels Of lafture
My dear sir" sed A. j., "your limo
scnce surprises me. Impeach me Never
so long as filial and family love is a distin-
guishin Characteristic NV the leedin minds
NV America-never 50 long ez senator hez
a nephew TO provide for or a brutker who
wants place All that love Of blood re-
lashuns Wat a beautiful thing it is And
how strong is the marriage relation witch
prompts a man when he hez promised to
love, cherish and protect a wife, to 90 cher
ishin and protecting all her brothers and
her sisters children-the love goin frekent-
w. like leprosy, to the third generashun.
Thank the Lord for it It's my only holt
Set your mind at eeze by peeroozin these,
and he tost me a bundle NV letters, neatly
done up and labelled, " Letters from the
Radicle Members of the House and SENT"
A lite dawned onto me ez | opened the
first one 1t wuz from distinguished Sen
ator, and read, ez near ez / kin remember
now, thus:
SENT CHAMBER, March G. 1867.
To the President:
Notwithstandin the site difference Nv opinion |
that may egzist between us certain minor ques-
tions NV public policy, and despite the unguarded |
expressions may hev INDUCED in the beet de- |
bate, kin trooy cay that hev ever cherished the
most endoorin faith iE the recttood your inten
shuns, the honesty Nv yoor purpose and the purity
of yoor motives. hev nephew in my State who
desires the posshen Nv Assessor wv Internal Reve-
noo BE is capable and honest, and while he hez
alluz voted the Republican ticket, hez dun it 50
mildly ez not 10 be Objectionable to those who diff
fer with him. Indeed last fall he wuz scooOsed,
and perhaps Justly, Nv votin for candidate for
Congress who wuz a supporter NV yoor policy witch
tho do not in all respects accept hez, l must &C
knowledge, many pints in it 10 recommend it TO a
discriminating people shood esteem his nomina-
shen personel favor.
With sentiments NV the most
profound respect and esteem
