"A lady who was looking at the procession OF the
soldiers and sailors at New York, was heard 10 say
that she saw The soldiers and sailors procession at
Chicago, and she thought the republicans made al
together better show, for although the chicago
procession was much smaller, it presented great
deal better appearance, because the New YORK pro-
cessiOn had 80 many One-legged and One-armed Eel
lows in 1t, that it was perfectly dsgusting"
1t matters little to the poor fellows which party
they support; no party will support them. To the
manned heroes, who grind organs on the street cor
or beg from passers by 1t matters little whether
copperhead or radical wins in the race for public
plumber Both will use them and both will leave
them to die In wretchedness.
