REFLECTIONS.
WASHINGTON, d. c., May 10, 1863
The happiest hours l hev enjoyed for
years passed over me last mite. The fail
yoor to impeach filled me with Joy mex
pressible.
Thank Hevini Halleloogy, Eff wuz

Miriam shood order fresh timbrel, eff
wuz Herodiss I shood dance afore the
Kingl For rve have pervaled. Our shep-
herd boy hez met this Goliath Nv Radical
ism, and with weapons witch he took from
his pouch hez cOnkered him. This
rhapsody hez reference to impeachment ex-
cloosively
When the vote wuz announced ther
wuz the widest enthoosasm manifested
The streets wuz immejitly filled with the
faithful. Baltimore and the cities further
South had vomitid all over Washington.
Mrs. Cobb, no longer in teers, he'd re-
turned, the pardOn-brokers, whisky-speki
laters, and those who he'd he'd difficulties
with courts on account of irregularities in
the currency they manufactured, wuz all
here, and joyful. Confedrit Captains,
Kernels and Brigadiers forgot their re-
spective ranks and embraced each other in
the public streets the gray coats witch he'd
seen servis at Anteetam and Harper's
Ferry, made their appearance agin, the
drinkin sloons filled up ez efby magic ; in
fact, the sceen reminded me very much
NV the revival Nv the coz on the 22d Nv
Febrooary, 1866
AT the White House there wuz the most
terrific eXhilerashun. The President sat
smilin serenely, Secretary Welles (blessins
on his frosty BROW wuz eZ lively ez the
Dunderberg, and Patterson wuz normal
The room wuz crowded with persons
eager to congratoolate the President on
his success, and every mint congratula-
tory dispatches wuz bein received from

lerin is samples:

PEoRY, ILL.,. 18th.
The circle which hez a interest in the handlin
nv ardent sperits at this place congratulates the
mics Their confidence in the integrity Nv the
SENT wuz not misplaced. They consider the
money they contributed to bring about this result
well spent, and will promptly honor any draft
made upon EN- for means to carry His Eggslency
safe thro the remainin ten articles.
BY order Nv the Circle.
The President promptly anserd this
telegram, Stain that no more money was
needed to be yoosed for impeachment pur-
poses, eZ the contract with Senators xiv
cred the entire eleven articles.
There were others from Morrissey, VAL |
landingham, and others, all breethin the |
same sperit NV thankfulnes for the result, |
and all acknowledge Indebtedness to the |
noble Republicans witch he'd brot it about |
These come from my old Kentucky home /:
Halleloojys tn hev my niggers agini Thank |
Heyin! My son Josier is even now finding out |
their whereabouts. The Lord be praised! Hev
is ringin and bonfircs is blazin. PoGRAN.
The Corners congratulate 700 and the Presi- |
dent. commence work to mOrrer on the. en-
NV my distillery, which wuz suspended
when the impeachment onpleasantnis was begun.
All hale. McPELrER
Hale all hale. Amid the general rejoicin.
can't You borrer enuf to pay the bill you owe
me. The Corners is blazin. Two niggers hev
been hung on the public square, and Pollock's
store Is in a state NV siege. The boys are bound
to clean him out this time, sure. BAscoN.
Couriers jist in from toards Garretstown.
the Niger Settlement wuz in blaze and the two
Burrow teachers there wuz reported missin |
Glory enuff for Kentucky. PUNT.
"Why," sed l to Randall, who sat moody |
and alone, don't you and the President
share in the general exhileration? He |
doesn't seem to be the least eggscited."
why should we?" retorted he. doth |
the shepherd go into spasms over the sheep
he hez safe in his fold? The fact is, our |
eggscitin time wuz sevral weeks ago, while |
he wuz buyin Nv EN-, and arrangin for
this. The Black Crook is rather startlin
to the beholder from the front, but to the
managers who contracted for the legs at
so much pair, and arranged the Taboo, it
amt SO startlin."
"Thinkst thou the new programme will |
result ez the President hopess"
mo, the new party can't succeed, no
more than our last vencher did. 1t amt |
made up NV the rite material There's |
more intelleck than sole in it-more bow
els than heart. There's Chase, Fessenden,
Trumbull and Grimes. Chase has ambi-
ton, Grimes hate, and Trumbull and Fes-
sender dyspepsia, making the Emergencies
in the new organization half ambition and
hate and half dyspepsia. Never trust
man whose stomach is out of order-take
no stock in him whose bowels is unsound. |
[ntelleck is nothin; heart is nothin, onless
there's a stumick under them on witch to
build. Chase hez no Conscience, Trumbull
and Fessenden no gastric jOose. Sich
men alluz conspire and alluz fail. Still,
I'm glad the things occurred"
g Eff it amounts to nothin, why glad?"
"Becoz it lets johnson and me out.
When Arnold went back on his country
men, his countrymen forgot Joodis Iska-
riot; when Aaron Burr ariz, they to wunst
forgot Arnold; Pierce drove Burr out NV
The public mind; Bookanan made EN- for
get Pierce, johnson made EN- forget Boo
kannon and now Chase and Trumbull will
make EN- forget johnson and me- That's
what / was drivin at. Under the storm /
shell leeve my quiet Wisconsin home and
i've in peece, for beside these later cusses
shell loom up into comparative respecta-
Dility. Good mite. All is well"
AT late hour I retired to my virchus
couch, and, fallin into the deep sleep witch
)nly visits the PLIERS NV them whose con-
,hences amt bothered much, NV whom l
Inn witch, ez my Conscience sheds conyick-
'hen nv wrath to come ez a duck does
spring rain, Greemed most curis dreem.
Methawt the Presidenshel course wuz
