The body of thieves assembled in
Congress, to rob the people who work
for the enrichment Of the non taxable
bondolders hate venality!
They recoil in horror at any thing
not moral, honest, religious, high
toned.
Poor Whttcmorc was caught in the
act. Congress had trcmor, 1t WAS
to expcl him. The poor fool grew
weak in the knees and resigned.
Then the brave thieves there assem-
bled censured him. Censured one not

and keep at it themselves.

Why the entire Republican party is
but a mass of rotten, putrid, fostering,
nasty, blasphemous, infamous, moral,
and political monstrosities and corup-
tions from the first. Turn one man

the Senate, the House, the Presidents
chair, the Departments, but bought
his way Of those who sold.
The Army was filled by those who
paid to Lincoln or his Infamous "ad-
ministrators" for chances TO rob, steal,
murder, and plunder. The great thief
of New England, whose father was
hung in chains at sea, for conspiracy,
and cutting the throats of women and
children, bought his place, and paid
for it on purpose to rob-to enrich his
brother, then murder him and rob his
heirs.
Look at the horde of Generals, Col
onels, Lieutenant Colonels, Majors,
Captains, Lieutenants, Army Chap
lains, Suffers, and prostitutes, often
known as hospital nurses, mixed in
with a few good women, all of whom
