erai appointments by the President under
the caption, "Should auld acquaintance

"A few weeks ago, Sprague, accord
ing to the Radical press, was an accom-
plished gentleman, an able statesman, and

is an ass, an idiot, knave, fool, a man
who doesn't know anything, and never
did know anything. 1t astonishing how

We were at first poohed at by the r .dcal
press for our warnings, but, judeias from
our exchanges, it is now considered of
