or how soon may be cOmpeileu 10 PICK
up my landlords s spare shirt and travel,
can't tell But wat do | care! For
the present am under the wing Nv
man who hez twenty millions Nv dol
lars, and who is yoosin it at a terrible
rate Some few NV the drops NV the
golden shower is falin onto me, and
/ am content That is, | am centent
personally. | am cz well off ez Good
be. | hev twice penetrated the august
presence Nv the Democratic candidate
for Governor nv PennSylyany, repre-
sontin myself ez President Nv a Demo
cratic club in PhiIadelphy, and twice
have received a hundred dollars to
carry on the good work. The young
man wich guards the outer door Nv the
candidatorial manshen is a most acute
Judge NV human nacher. The servant
at the door askt for credcnshels, at wich
the young man who happened to be in
the hall, noticin me, rebuked him for
delayin me-
"Terence" remarked he sharply,
"admit all sich noses without question.
Yoo bet they are our friends"
That nose hez cost me thousands Nv
other peoples dollars to keep it up in
color. Thank Heaven, its repayin me
some Nv the trouble hev gone through
on its account.
/ am well enutf of, and possibly
ought to be satisfied, but the condition
nv the Democrisy aflix me. The fact
IL, We are in a bad way, and ther amt
no way out NV it, We amt got no
yoonanimity-we amt got nothin to
6te for, and the country hez he'd uni
versally good crops. The weathers
bin agin US. Ef we Good he'd rain in
harvest enuff to hev rustid the wheat,
and enuff follerin to the wheat harvest
to hev rOtted the pertaters, aud then a
juicy attack Nv cholera and yellow fever,
and other disorders Of that nacher, so
thet the people Good hev got dissatis-
fed and ugly and SIGH, ther wood hev
bin some hope for us. The potato rot
in western Pennsylvany wood hev made
thousands Nv votes fall alone. But
watts the yoose Nv talkin to farmers
with teers in yoor eyes Nv a country
goin to room, when every mothers son
Nv EN- hev ther pockets Etuffen with
gresnbax and barn full Nv wheat to
bring more9 Watts the yoose camor-
in for change when the eountry's doin
o. we'll ez it kin anyhowf
Then agin, our management heS bin
friteful. In Ohio, we made bOggle at
the beginnin, in the nomenashon Nv
RoSeCrans. 1t wuznt in the nacher Nv
things for our patriots who had shot
officers sent out by this Rosecrans to
arrest ther sons wiCh he'd taken bounty
and he'd deserted to Canady, to vote for
Rosecrans, partiklerly eS hundreds Nv
EN- he'd bin dragged to Bastiles for emp
tyin their rifles at EN-. The hurrahs
stuck In their throats, / must con-
fesS that they made brave attempt
at it, but they looked sick while they
did it. Their efforts to hurrah for Ros.
ecrans, and the face they made Nv 1t re.
minded me Nv an insident wich occur
red to me wunst,
/ he'd q friend whose name IL was
Brown, who wuE given to indulgence
in the fowin bole to a fearful extent.
Wun mite he attempted to be Oonviv-
vel on . new brand Nv whisky, and it
foored him. At P. NJ. ! found him
clingln to lamp post aud vomiten ez
tho ther wuz miniatoor earthquake
into his insides.
"Brown !" remarked !, layin my
hand afeCtionately onto his, shoulder,
"Brown are you sick 7"
"Siek. SIoK!" replied he, swingin
around 10 the other side NV the post
and dischargin another avalanch.
"Siek! hi! do you think I'm doin
this for the fun Nv the thing I"
Our Democrats in Ohio swalered
RosCcrans, but their hurrahs were so
much like the retchin Nv a man with
load onto his stumick, that il reminded
me Nv my friend Brown.
In Pennsylvania we aint much better
of. 0urCandidate hez pints about him.
He wuS copperhead doorln the war,
wich makes all Nv that class Nv Demo.
Orats enthusiastic In his support; but
on tother hand 1t drives off tho war
Democrats, without wich we amt worth
shucks. He heE money though, and ez
he's bleedin freely he may keep tho Or
ganiEation alive ill we kin make O 6te
with q man wich we kin elect.
The principle trouble is however to
find out what Democracy is at this
juuoter. In Ohio its agin nigger ekal-
ity and 10 favor Nv either payin the
bonds in greenbacks or rspudiashun,
In Tennessee it's nigger suffrage and
Niger offs holdini Connecticutits pay
in the bonds In gold, interest aud p:in-
Ciple$ IN Californy its anti Chinese, and
in Looiaiana, its Chinese, In Maine
our people arc runnin peFbibertory
likkeT Law, and everywhere else they're
for free whisky. In Illinois Domoc-
racy i free trade in Pennsylvany it's
high protective tariff, aud so on around.
In short its so high mixed that wood
ent agree TO 60 from one county TO
another to make speeches, without
having first carefully ascertained wat
the Democracy Nv that pertiksler coun.
~ believed in.

States one day, and by persistent cad |
