NUMBER 4S.

Oh Mr. aanguoodle, have not the Democrats
of Trinity brains enough to write out platform .
MUsr we ever rely on Sis-ki-You-u-u? What if
Jay Kay stays at Fort Jones when our Conyen-
ton meets next Summer My soul sickens at
the thought Has our last recruit any sense
Despairingly yours, McARoxI.
BY way of answer to this last question: the
editor of the lIhaagdoodie says:
Our correspondent is too old Democrat not
to know that brains are not necessary ngre-
dent of Democracy. Had our last convert been
smart he would not have joined US at all. We
will write to Jay X. in season
Among the Editorial Notes of this new Demo-
cratic paper is the following:
ps4S" We are an old hand at the newsboper
business-our coadjutor in the great Democratic
cause is but young, and will, we trust, act upon
a word of caution from an older Uranium. Our
coadjutor says; "The Board Of Supervisors
meets this week. 1t will be Democratic for the
first time in many years. The next issue he
says, in effect; "The Board of Supervisors met
last week. 1t was the most disgracerul thing
which ever happened in this county. We hayo
heard of rings, corruption and official yillainy in
the cities, but it was reserved for the year 1870
to see it introduced in our midst" We know
Ihese things are always Sure to follow u Demo-
crauc triumph the last Legislature was proof
enough of that. But what's the use of telir,r
eoery6ody, when we are claiming all the time to
be party of reform To make the mndlle
worse, the Republicans are charged as bein, tbc
guilty parties. That would be all right if there
were enough of them. We have two-thirds. and
they one-third of the Board, aud the party in
power is always held responsible for official cor
ruption. That one Republican must be n smart
chap If he can circumvcnt our two Democrats.
we have heard of man who was a host in
himself but never before heard of one who
could form himself into ring"
Following this n number of " Answers to
Correspondents, from which we make a few
extracts
BIBLICAL SruDENr.-The phrase, we believe, is

| lNQUIRER.-Ycs. st, Patrick aid drive most Of
the snakes out Of that country, for we saw II pie
ture of him doing it. We presume he left A sue
cessor, like ST. Peter, to keep driving them out,
as many of our Copperheads seem to come com
there.
Next week, we intend to commence the pub-
lication of the Great Sensation Story which the
propretors of the Whangdoode inform us Is to
extend through several numbers of that valuable
publication. 1t is entitled "Jony SMrru-A
Tail of the Lorst Coz !"
