selves rich are anxious to keep their
wealth and be bloated aristocrats) hey
determined to no longer perfect the
thieves, bond-robbers, garroters, bur-
glars and SIGH, who are maxim that city
lively for that class, and that when sich
are taken they must take their chances
the same ez though they lived in other
cities. How much it cost EN- to get the
courts for EN- / don't know, but that
our friends are to hev a hard time NV it
hereafter is certain. One NV EN-, a
a brite and shinin lite, who was accused
Of burglary, complicated with a mur-
der or two, wuz not only arrested and
tride, but wuz convictid, and sentenced
to Sing Sing for forty years, and an
other for twenty,
At first site this settled the question
Nv my going to Moo York adversely.
! thot to myself, if these infatooated
men persist in their determinashen to
hang and implizen all NV these men on
to wich they kin git their hands onto,
the Dimokratic majority in Moo York
will fade out like frost under a May
sun, and the Republicans will carry it,
jist ez soon ez the courts git thro with
their work.
How long will it take to kill off the
Dimerkratic majority in the city, by
law, is very easily assertaned There
are suthin like twenty criminal courts
in the city, and / spoze, ef the judges
push things, each court kin average one
conyickshen a day. We hev reel
majority in the city NV $4,000 We
hey given ez high es 10000, but 4O,-
coo Nv these wuz repeeters Now eff
the courts hang and imprizen 20 per
day, and hold sessions six days in the
week, it will take five years or therea-
bouts to wipe out our majority entire
ly, and throw the city into the hands
Nv our nateral enemies.
Probably it wood be done sooner, for
the mint they begin hanging in earnest
pertikelerly ef they commence on our
lOedin men, the smaller fry will take
fright and scatter. 1t is safe to say
that by the next Presidenshl eleckshen
the majority in the city will be redoost
so ez to make the State shoor for the
Radicals.

State hez is all full, and not one in

Ez matter NV course new prizens will
hev to be built, and to accomodate our

quired. Now the Court House in Moo
York hez already made the forchoons

tired Independently rich, and experen-
ced calculations hev fggered that twen-
ty more will make their pile out NV it :,
before it is fnisht. A States Prizsn
kin bo made to cost ez much ez the
Court House, for Nv course they will
be fnisht with all the modern improve
ments for the convix, incloodin gas and
hot and cold water. The unfortunit
