The Situation,
ACCORDING TO A. HEAD, Es,

ACCORDING TO A. HEAD, ESQ.
The Political Aspect appears,
from latest adviccs to be L Pluribus
Unum, but not Pro Bono Publico.
If the Republican Party succeed in
elccting tie next Prcsidcnt-and
they will do it if they get votes
enough-thcn we shall see the glo-
rious 2-leggod bird called the cam
erican Eagle" flop his wings and
fly to the uttermost parts of the
Earth-ay, to those uninhabited
wilds where, in the words of the
immortal bard, "The lion roarcth
and the whangdoodle mourneth for
her first-born." Then shall we have
plenty Of taxes to pay and plenty
of soft water to wash Then will
be marrying and giving in marriage
If paid in advance-and every
body shall be created free and equal,
without regard to race, color, con
dition, sex, or religious scruples-
or draohms. But if, on TIE other
hand, those miscteants called "De-
mocratS" should succeed, then we
shall have our land--our once pros
porous, fair and happy land-del-
ugcd with milk and honey, and we
shall have those beautiful and pic
turcsque greenbacks changed to
that vile dross commonly called
gold and silver! We ask, shall such
things be and overcome us like
summers dream? Shall the record
of our late 4 or years unpleasant
ness, in which only l or 2 millions
of men were killed be blotted out,
and the people of-the North and
South live together in Concord or
any other town?] Shall a free and
enlightened people have their taxes
taken away from them, and chick
ems be allowed to roost 50 high that
the free and enlightened citizens of
African descent cannot reach 'em at
night? By heavens it must not be!
1t will never do, under republican
form of government, to permit the
majority to rule. Therefore, we
bang our hangers on the outer wall,
as Bill Shakespeare, the Englshman,
says, and stick to the following
resolutions:
Resolved, That none but the truly
loil shall hold offices.
Resolved, That the Republicans
only are the trooly loil.
Resolved, That we live for the
country, and the country lives for
us.
Resolved, That we, "the elect"
commonly called Republicans. do
as we please, without regard to ex-
pense, cost, postage, damage or in
fernal revenue.
Resolved, That we are right, and
every body who differs from us is
wrong, so help us Benjamin f. But
lcr. Adjourned. Selah.
