ST. LOUIS, June IL.
You may think it strange that
address q letter to you, but will ex
plain why do so. / am informe,
by friend in this city, upon whom
/ can rely, that although violen
Radical, you are gentleman and
man Of honor, and / prefer to di
rect my correspondence to you rath
err than the pretended Democratic
sheet of your city, which am in
formed by the same friend is one o
the mongrel, milk -and-w kind
somewhat after the manner of thu
Missouri Republican.
always prefer an honest, opcr
enemy to secret foe, or hypocr.t
ical friend.
The Missouri Republican is either q
secret foe or hypocritical friend.
1t has lot Of satellites which re.
volve around it.
They take their opinions from it,
so far as they can be said to have
any.
Whatever they get up on their
own account is nonsense.
And what they get from the RepuJ-
lican does not serve q much better
title.
How is il?
They pretend to be Democrats
They pretend to sympatLizc with the
South, trodden as she is under the
foot Of military rule, and
They are aspiring to the leader
ship Of the great Democratic party,
but
When the South was making her
gallant struggle COR her rights under
the Constitution,
What did they do?
Shoulder their musket for her?
Warmly espousc her cause in any
way?
No.
They aided and allotted the hire
lings and hounds set.upon the South
by Lincoln-the greatest tyrant since
Nero, and the most stupcndous ass
since Vitcllius.
And in the name Of nature, who
we're those hounds and hirelings?
Niggers and foreigners.
Can 1, as the acknowledged leader
of the great Democracy, not only of
the North West but of the entire
South, cooperate with such men:
Never.
What do they say in tho case Of
Plowholders VS.. Bondholders?
Nothing.
What have they to say about this
intolerable national debt, created for
the unholiest of oil purposes, and
which rests like a vast incubus upon
the energies of the people?
The towards say that it should be
paid in greenbacks.
They haven't the moral courage to
come out upon the only Democratic
platform possible, and insist upon its
immediate and utter reputation.
Shame. that such men should have
the hardihood to attemptto sit in the
councils of the Democratic party.
Shade of the gallant Booth!
Now, Mr.. Editor, as l am not &C
quainted with live and true Demo
crat in your city, as i have no faith
in your pretended Democratic organ
1 hope you feel no astonishment at
receiving this letter.
am about to canvass the entire
State of Missouri in favor of repudi-
ating the National debt, or in default
! of that,
Revolution.
i think there are enough of Demo
Gratis good and true in Missouri to
sustain me.
Let the others. who are after the
loaves and the fishes go their own
way.
trust they will be signally repu-
dated in New York on the 4th of Ju-
ly next.
l shall speak at Kansas City on
Monday, June 10, upon this great
and important question.
Please hand this letter to some
Democrat who was, during Lincoln's
war, true to the injured South, (and
trust you have many such) who wiz,
attend TO procuringa place for the
meeting, have it properly advertised.
There can be no personal i'll will
between you and me, and trust to
your honor as gentleman to do as
/ require. BRICK PoMERoY.
