upon the outspoken and undaunted Vindi-
Gator exclaims: ~ have forborne from
exposing the corruptions Of the administra-
ton so long, that fear that have fallen far
short of my duty TO the people. But / shall
do so no longer This last aggression on
the rights of the governed demands, and
shall receive in the next issue of the 'Indi-
Gator of the Peoples Demands the notice
it deserves. shall expose TO the fullest ex-
tent the double dealing, treGehery, and false
hoods of the pampered minions of power. l
have the proofs for all shall assert at hand.
/ After day next, l would like 10 see how
they will dare to hold up their heads in an
incensed community" This time my friend
smiled sarcastically, and merely remarked
that he pitied them. Thinking of it after
wards, could not decide whether it was the
people, as defended by the Vindicator, the
minions, or the indicator, that he pitied.
The outspoken man then left, no doubt to
breathe his scorn of corrupt government
in other ears Ny excitement had arrived at
that pitch, by this time, that could not talk
coherently, but l could listen. In fact, 1
actually devoured every word that was said
in disparagement of the authorities, by whom
had been, as 1 considered, SO deeply
wronged therefore heard, with great sat
isfaction, the Defiant Foreigner.
The Defiant Foreigner is, as everybody
knows, very important personage-partic-
ularly in his own estimation. He has lived
in this country say-a very long time. He
has been successful in business. He is die
tatorial in enforcing his opinions upon others.
He is patronizing to those whom he considers
to be his interiors; sycophantie to those
whom he knows to be his superiors. He
makes great show of charity. He speaks
frequently of knocking people down, though
fortunately, perhaps, he never strikes any
body. Yearning for a place where he can
have q hand in the conduct of public affairs,
and not being able to obtain it, he assumes
to entertain the most supreme contempt for
this country, which he stigmatizes as id
government. He affects to be patriotic, and
characterizes all who speak well of things
here, if they are his countrymen, as traitors;
if not, he calls them g. uft-hunters,n and
asks, "Wrhat more could be expected from a
id syc ophant."
This Defiant Foreigner exclaimed, as he
my friend, with eyes flashing,
face flushed and defiant sport" Isn't this
beyond endurancel This d-d-Govern-
ment is undertaking to brow beat and
override every body. 1t was only this morn
ing that Mr. y = = \ felt it his duty to tell the
Minister of - that he had done very wrong,
in certain matter. What do you think the
- told Mr.. \. Why he told him to
mind his ow business; and that if he wanted
any of his a.dvice he would ask him for it,
That's aprei;ty answer for such a-to make
to man lik Mr. y y. / wish he'd have
told me that. I'd have knocked him down,
Of it, if they liked, am not a subject of the
Id govern ment. I'm not afraid of any of
hem! Here the Defiant Foreigner, seeing
nan who had lately been unfortunate in
business, aud who had, by the assistance of
friends, star ed in a small way to earn bread
or his family, pointed towards him and said,
Look at that fellow! III were in his place,
would be shamed to show my head He
S just as cheeky" and impudent, as
hough he had never squandered other peo-
lies money This place will never be re-
pectable so long as such people are permit
ed to do the business, that honest people
,ught to do.'' Just at this time a person,
-ery much in need of funds, for immediate
Use, coming up, accosted the Defiant
Foreigner; thiIt individual retired with him,

With good eturity. This time my friends

which, if they were intended to apply to the
