From the Toledo Blade
Posi- OFFS, CoNFEDRIr ROADS,
(Which is in the State nv kentuck,
April 2i, 1858.
There never will be peace, or anything
like it at the Corners till that disturbel
Joe Bigler, and his faithful adherent, alder
and abetter, Pollock, are shot or other
wise killed In the olden time, afore th5
inoggerashen Nv the Ablishen era, we heC
short way of disposin of sich. 1t wul
a maxim in the South that ther Good be
peace only where there wuz a perfeeb
yoonanimity of sentiment and to bring
about that onenis Nv idees-that delitefu
concord wich wuz so desirable-we were
in the habit Nv shootin or hangin the most
stubborn of those wich didn't agree with
the majority, and tarrin and feathern those
who were vet accessible to Kentucky rea-
son. By vigorously persooin this course
the minorities in this vacinity wuz kept
tolloblv small and controllable Why
these cusses hevent bin so treated passes
my comprehension.
Our Convenshun to nominate candidates
for county offices wuz held yesterday. |
wuz cheerman Nv course, for | now ocku-
py that posishen since it WIZ discovered
that Capt. MePelter kin rite he hez bin
! Sekretary,) and | felt sinkin sensashen
when l saw that cuss Bigler and that
other cuss Pollock enter the door.
Deekin Pogram, ez he saw en-, billed
over. Rising 10 his feet, the venerable
old patriark exclaimed, in a voice tremu-
lous with emoshun, wat in thunder he
wur there for.
"Josef, hev 700 rite to set in the
| Dimocratic convenshun, holdin, ez 700 dc
| opinyuns the reverse of Dimocratic ?"
" Deekin," returned this Bigler, " [ car
ry in my body Fedral lead-I wuz under
the Confedrit flag in sixty battles, skirm
ishes and skedaddles. | hev a certificate
to that etfeck from the late lamentet
John Morgan. That certifkit wood admit
me to a sect in any Dimocratic Conven
shun in the North-shel it not be sufi
cient here in Kentucky? Alars, the
Profit is not without honor save in his own
Cross Roads"
And Josef let on he wept, when Pollock
ostentashusly handed him a pocket hand
kercher.
Ef held any hetrodox views hev re-
pented Nv EN-, me and Pollock, and We
perpose to vote for all yer resolooshen ;
ike frisky lambs wat is glad to get back
to the troo fold Don't we Polloce ?"
"Certin, we do. The Convenshun may
90 on and count US in ez troo converts from
| Ablishnism wich in view NV the fact
that my store hez bin set on fire twict be-
coz Nv my awful opinions, | may be sed
to be literally brand plukt from the burn
| ing. Go on"
Findin they wuz bound to stay, we went
on. The first thing in order wuz the adOp-
shen Nv resolushen, ez follows:
l. We resolved we he'd the utmost conf
dence or not ez the circumstances Nv the
case shoed warrant.
2 That the Congris NV the United
States wuz a unconstitooshnal body. wich
wuz persistently endeavrin to break up
| the Government Nv the United States
wich we wuz as persistently strlgin to
save.
5. That the only hope of Yoonun lay in
the displacement Nv sich traitors ez Grant
Sumner and Stevens, and the putin III
their places such guileless patriots ez
Breckenridge, Brite and Vallandighum
et al.
4 That the thanks NV the Democracy
is due the people NV the South for their for
bearance in not risin to sweep the radical
faction from the the face Nv the earth.
At this pint Bigler arose. Ha wanted
to know eff this convenshen, stylin itself
Democratic, wuz agoin to be satisfied
with them resolushens? He called for the
readin Nv the reglar one without wich nc
Democratic platform wuz complete. He
referred to the one dedicatin this Govern
ment forever to white men. Here it is, ,''
he sed:
Resolued, That this Government wuz es,
tablished by white men, and that white
men will keep it intact for white men and
their posterity forever
demand, ez a white man." sed this
Bigler, that this resolushen be added
Let every white man, every proud Cauca-
shen. who believes in race say, "aye,'
and with emphasis "
And every one Nv EN- hollered out
{. ave with all their might.
Good" sed Bigler, " good. White
men and their posterity. wat a noble
sentiment. Say AYE" to my resolution
agin."
And they yelled aye agin.
.sNow Pollock, brother in the troo faith,
newly baptized, will you open the door
It is better to be doorkeeper in the house
nv Democracy than to dwell in tho tents
Of Ablishnism. Open the door"
Wich Pollock did and then entered
wat, Good Heavens.
A hundred mulatto, quadroon and octo.
room niggers-two by two.
nWat does this mean ? 4" shreeked I.
