compelin the labor necessary to our
support, we kin never pay and the re-
suit will be, this beautiful land of ourn,
wieh we so deerly love, will pass out Nv
the hands Nv the stronger and better
race into the control Of weaker and
less powerful people.
The Deekin was remarkin suthin to
this effect, when Joe Bigler remarkt in
reply that the Deeken had threw his
self onto the sympathy of his sons.
why, they can't work any more
than l kin, sed the Deekin.
81 don't mean your white sons e sed
this terrible Bigler "They amt nv no
akouut, But in the niger settlement
and Garrettstown you hev more than
twenty who wood"
The poor Deekin rushed out NV the
the room, while Bigler laft his most
| fiendish laff.
The pvople will be deprived Nv their
innocent amoosements. This Grant
will send on armed hirelins, clothed in
ojus bloc, with muskets and SIGH, who
will prevent our shooting niggers, and
who will protect on ther farms and in
ther shops the ojus Northerners who
hev settled in our midst. We shell see
the gelorious Southern system decline
stidily and shoorly. The whippin posts
will rot and the stox decay-the yelp of
dorgs will no more be heerd, and the
cheerful crack Nv the pistol and the
skreek of the man what has got his
cruel will no more be heard in all the
end. Bascom, after he hez the few
farms still unmortgaged in the visinity
will close, and go toLooisville and en-
bark into wholesale grocery trade ann
jine the church, and give ibrally to
Sundy Skools; his grosery will fall in
to decay and the sine will hang by one
hinge. We shell see churches and skool
houses, factrys and villages everywhere.
The Pogram place of 1900 akers will
be divided up into twenty farms, and
onto them farms will be the bustlin
Moo Yorker, the cool calculatin Yankee,
the stiddy, hard warkin German-who
will display his grovelin nacher by
workin himself instead of forcing mig
gers to do it for him, We shell be run
over with skool marms, deluhed with
academies, plastered over with moose
papers, stunned with machinery, drove
crazy by the whirr, crash and clash NV
mowin machines and reapers. And
there will be cheese made at the Cor
ners Pennibacker's distillery will be
turned into cheese factory, and weak
whey will run where now the generous
highwines fash along the trough.
Their will be no rectifyin at the Cor
ners: the hogpens will be abolished,
and their sted will be skool houses. =
And methinks see in my minds eye
Horasho, the sperit, the ghost Nv the
departed Pogram for he won't survive
it long, hoverin over the scene, ez
Hamlick' S father did. The blessid shade
will look in vain for his house on the
spot where it stood ther will an acade-
my. He will turn to Bascom's, but
Their will he will find a deestrict skule.
''To Pennibackers p he will gasp in a
sperit whispee, and with a spiritiooal
smack ov his spiritiooal lips, he will
hover over it, but the smell NV cheese
in the place ov strengthnin odors in
wich he deites will send spiritooal
shudder thro him. A COST NV a tear
will run down his spiritooal nose, inger
for mint at the tip like dew drop on
the rose, and fall Then will the dis
satisfied goss demand to be taken back
to purgatory, place less tryin to his
nerves. t M
Deekin Pogram has only britened up
wunst. A thot flashed over his mind
wich gave him comfort for minnit. -
"Isn't ther Booth for Grant ez ther
wuz for Linkin ?" askt he.
"Ah p sed I, in alarm, "wood you
kill Grant to have Colfax in his place I?
We mite kill Colfax, seq you. Alars !!
sposn they elect Sumner ez President
Nv the SENT! Kill Sumner Good
Lord, no They'd then elect Butler
Speaker NV the House, and he can't be
killed. No !noi We he'd better bear
the ills we have than fly to them we no
not NV. It's gone. All is up with me
