Brick POmeroy pronounces ssvagely a
gainst President Johnson, whose position
to-day. he says, commands neither our

may set the tighter to your affections |
love you beyond measure, but it is SO hard

my suit. Pray put a favorable construc-
ton on this, and for the same shall al
ways sit cross-legged for your sake; being,
my dearest little aouncer, your
CABBAGE.
