July 10, 1865.
1 didn't stay In Moo York till the
Convenshen adjourned, for most ex-
cellent reason, to wit, viz: my money
run ont. The Milesian female with
whom wus forst to board, required
payment in advance, and nv coorse nm
der SIGH an arrangement there WIZ
nothing left for me but to succum.
The length Nv my stay redoost itself to
borrowin dodge, and the cheekin dodge,
but good Lordl wat Good do with an
entire ConYenshen, all nv lem more or
less irwin to live in the same way? I
left and come home while Good, and
before it wuz everlastingly too late.
When left 1 spozed Their WIZ no doubt
nv the nominashen Nv Pendleton. The
young eagle Nv the West" he'd re-
ceived l55 votes, and wuz agaiuin, and
Seymour he'd declined so often and so
persistently that goin back on my yoo-
suel disbelief in these fellerS hevin de-
clined q great many offices myself that
I wanted, I RELY believe the cuss VIM
In earnist, and saw nothin that Good
stand between Pendleton and success.
Ez I left the Ohio river, L got out the
reech nv railrOdes and telegraphs, and 1
told the people all along that Pendle-
ton he'd bin nominated on the 18th bal
lot, and that the country wuZ all abla2e
with enthoosiasm for him and green
bax, SO certin WIZ nv his success.
On arrivin at the Corners found that
intense anxiety was manifested by the
citizens thereof. They were all gather
ed at Bascom's discussin the matter
when hove in sight on mule witch l
he'd borrered at Secessionville to ride
over onto.
"Who is it ?" asks Dekin Pogram,
ketchin the mule by the bride, ''WhO
is it, and wat principles hev we got to
support this fall"
"Pendleton and greenbax," shouted
I. "Pendleton the young eagle or the
west, who is opposed to the bloated ar
istocratfc bondholder, wich wood crush
US labrin men into the dust. Pendle-
ton, who believes that ef greenbax is
good enuf fur us honest laborin men,
they are good enuf fur the aristocrat,
who like the King In the nursery
rhyme, sits in his pRrlor, counting his
money. Pendle-"
"Enuffn sed Bascom, "enufT. Save
that speech, Parson, till we have our
ratlhcashun. In the meantime, get of
and take suthin. So good do feel over
the result, that I am willin TO stand
treet for the crowd. Come one, come
ALL"
These few remarks of Bascom's wuz
hailed with satisfaction. EZ one man,
the entire crowd moved into his place.
and as one man they all ass waged their
thirst. Bascom can move the Corners
quicker than any man In IT. Wat
happy posishen ia hissen!
The next mite 1t wuz deslded TO heV a
ratificashen, that the Corners mite con-
tribbit her mite towards sWellin the en-
thoosinsm on the buZZum Nv Wich
Pendleton wuz to sweep to glory. We
met in the open air, in front of Bas-
CONS, and the impashent crowd called
upon me to give an account OF my
stewardship.
I opened by Stain that I went to Moo
York under pecoolyerly embarrassin
circumstances. The whole money pow
er nv the east wuz arrayed agin US.
The aristocratic Belmont, which is the
agent NV tho Rothschilds, the money
king nv the world, WIZ determined to
foist onto the Dimocrisy either Chase
the accursed Abolitionist, or Seymour
the pekoolyer pet Nv Wall street, Wlch
street is, I may cling in here for the
benefit NV my hearers, where the mon

.sWhat is coopors ?" asked Deekin
Pogram. I explained to the blessid
old saint wat coopons wuZ. and went
on.
''This Wall street intlooence wood,
nv brethren, hev corrupted the DImoc-
risv. Wall street came into Tammany
Hall and wanted to control our ack-
sben, But We wuZnet 10 be purchist.
The more Wall street offered to enslave
the DimocrIsy, the more yOOr repre-
5entatives, gloryin in their manhood,
spurned Their proffered tribes. We
went there determined to emancIpate

''Rah for PendletonW snng out the
crowd.
"Three gIoans for Seymour, the
bloated bondholders' agent"
Both cheers and groans Were given
with will and 1 proceeded.
'ME friends, you uevr'u know wat
we, the peoples defenders, he'd to con-
tend with. The bloated bOndholders
he'd money-we he'd none. They were
determined to fasten the yoke on yoor
pecks-we were determined to hist it
off. They wuz determined to hev Sey-
