20 days
There Is the stamp with which dates arc put onto
letters. the caucellnu stamp and one or two other
pieces NV government property witch may possibly
be rnpde available for one or two more days. Then
there j. "a possibility bare possibIty-that some
ny our people may send a letter cOntainin remit
tanco 20 ii gift enterprise; or one abroad may
send money by mail 10 some one at the Corners in
witch case / shell new supplies for longer period
But tlis D. u mere straw 10 ketch at. Ez peo-
ple don't read they arc not apt to send money on
the strength nv advertisements and besides they
Amt got the money 10 send Bascom hez it all.
From this time out my life Is prolonged misery.
Pun / Ike u man in a boat in The rapids NV Niagary
the plunge over the falls must come.
In .leanin out the government property hev IN
my possession, am only follerin DimOcratic prece
dent. Wat wuz left, let me ask, when Buchanan's
people went out Nv placer Its my mistoretoon and
A Johnsou's crime, that I'm in place where
there is so little 70 steal A. johnson hez, in this,
yoosed me most Wiley ! hev labored for him; !
hov supportcd him-and this is the bcggarly reward
for a aacrhs so great There are hundreds which
never did the half ] hcv for bin, who hev places
,yich Of they hey ordinary skill will yield EN- hun
dredz NV thousands when they go out while hev
only enuf Government property 10 my hands 10
furnish me sustenanco for less than month And
this is wat A. johnson wood call gratitood This
b. the reward NV yirchoo
Irnon the whole | don't know but that il is ez
well tlut / shood leave the Cross Reads The fact
is o. community made up entirely NV Democrats
aiut pleasant place for SIGH TO live into. Ez
ucy H. live onto the people its ruther thin pickin
where the people hcv uuthin themselves Wv wat
yuose Is 10 10 hold oils wher thor amt nothin TO taxi
iii | ,guz "a Whisky Inspector, or Collector, or As
SCISSOR mite possibly wrench tolerabe subsistence
from our distiilcrs here, Elder Pennibacker and
Can't McPelter. But A. johnson made Elder Pen
uiUarl,r WHISKY Inspector, Capt. McPelter Asses
sur ard BBscom, who hcz an interest IN both dIstil-
al 4rrf fr.r, r,f..t,a
arrangement the Internal Revcnoo isn't difoosed
very much. The Intelligent citizens are averse %
labor. save wat they hov % Do t. pervIde EN- with
sustcusucc and they keep 1t SO bot for the niggers
who ire the only ones who will work, that they
don't accumulate anything. l was Justis nv the
Pccce here one ycor, but NV wat vale wuz it, l
he'd collections enuH put into my hands, and the
defendants wood come up with the utmost cheerful
mess and confess judgement but alars, the defendant
never had nothing that Good be attached, and the
plaintiff wuz mover good for the costs.
Tho Post Oils was worth suthin for iL gave me
credit ! was n Federal oaiscr and being one, in
spircd The people here with awe. Ez no one takes
rarcr- here or reserves sends letters the perks
ties aint large but then [ hav posishen!
/ shell 20 10 Moo York. In Moo York is a field
pcsaolyeriy adapted 30 me. In Moo York, alder
mon and city oiishcls 20 mOurners at the funer-
ais NV prizc-Gghlors; in Moo York they elect gen.
u.mrn on skool boards witch are unable 10 write
tacir names in 400 York John Morsscy wuz lect-
cd 80 Congfjs aud in Moo York Sammy Cox got
into posishcn. In Moo York little Ben Wood is
power aud Feruaudy hez iuaooence. Looking at
these things, ! feel Tint there is hope for me.
Fiuanshully, l know that il is all right. In Moo
York there is fifteen miiyuns per year TO be stolen,
and Che facilities are so magnificent cz TO make llvln
OF the city treasury uothn but lugsurous easiness.
when 1 WIZ there last and saw how easy IT wuz, ]
rcoly blushed for my sex.
PoIi,ikully it cOodcrt bo no better. The Dmok.
risy uy al tho rest the country kin Ue fetched,
but our Irish lclluw-Citizens NV Moo York are in
vulnerable They are splendid men, and most con-
sistcut in their Dimokrisy. There is no people in
the world wich so love liberty-none witch hev SIGH
a determination that All men shell be irge-Ceptin,
NV course uigCcrs and others wich don't agree with
ON The hatred wich the oppressed @ Murphy bears
To his English opprCssors is only eXuled by his de-
sire 60 hey niger witch no kin smash into thu dust
There Is iu the Irish character invinsbul hatred
NV slaycy-oulcss they kin be the masters and a
"a uudyiu luy uv ckality al they git on top. The
Niger. however, is their speciality Ez there is
thousands ut niggors ln Moo York and cz Dimok-
risy IN that city KILN Niger there amt no
danger NV our ever 0sIu that vote. Sh0od TIE uIC-
ger race run out our party wood languish, but IL
wood only bo for time. So important is this idea
30 us that the leaders uv the Dmokrsy would
search the earth from the North pole 10 the South,
To fud some race wich the Moo York Dimokrisy
Good reasonably claim TO bc sooperor to. l don't
know whether there is such race on the face tv
the earth or not, but IF there is it wood be found
and imported, for SIGH race we must hev. So long
az there's "a niger, thcr n be "a Dimckrat.
At the Gross Roads there amt nobody 90 tain
Moo York the elements are better mixed The op-
ulcnt merchants and biznoss men NV that charmin
city make "a milyuu year apiece and consen. like
gcutle lambs 90 be shrCrej NV two-thirds NV il TO
support scmc thousands NV gentlemen who pay
notGin In Moo York We have suthn solid to go
onto Our majority cant be disturbed and those
witch don't pay taxes don't care how much them
witch do are taNcd-aud halt av them witch don't
are directly interested in taXin them witch do The
Captins NV the tons rit their sbare-the Captus NV
the Hhies and hundreds likewise only more SO. And
cz their force makes the majority Their amt no APP
peal from this.
In Kentucky I am dependent upon the general
,,ovcrnmout--in Moo York they wood like to have
ihc Fclral otses for they cant gin too much bat Of
they don't hcy en- thoy don't care very much They
only nut The suction closer the city treasury
Tho only reason why any hlzncss men voted for
Seymour wuz that ci the Rings got the Fci5al ul-
fscs they m,o possibly Do easier The yity trcasu-
~. aud lot cm or with less. That is, ihey wanted
the whole country 90 assist 100 suPporln the rings,
instd uv bein compelled % DO Il themselves alone.
The only thing That stands iu the way my aU-
guiriu pHiirha iU0r0oncc M Moo York Is The lack
NV sufisbgut gaViue 800 staIt grgscry with. ri i
kin cit that caVtla sbcl start 10, on corner, Cl
possible ! shcl git control uy ten votes witch by
iggdishus rcpcatiu kia ho made 90 count fifty Then
/ hey sumthin positive. With these fifty votes
back NV me I Kin insist upon shsre-with money
l KIN cIt more vutcs-vith more votes more money
and with money ] ka buy pusishcn. In Noe York
the sartiu pint ia few votes and votes Is got by
