The language used by the general is
characteristic Of the man, being the
most pointed that could have been used
to make emphatic his declination Of the
possible honor of the presidency. If
We were to urge any objection to the
old heros course it would be that he
has protested too much, thereby Gre
ating just the faintest suspicion that he
may be trying the tactics of Don Juan's
Julia, who, saying 81 will ne'er con-
sent, consented This policy of refusal
is the high card of certain great men who
have aspirations that know no bounds.
The favorite son of New York" has
tried it on several occasions with great
success, the great and good Greeley re-
sorts to it whenever he is anxious for a
nomination, and in the old time gentle
man named Caesar, at that time residing
at Rome, placed his foot on the liberties
of his country and became all,powerful
while modestly protesting that he would
net wear the purple, but would per
emptorily decline to receive it even if
offered by the unanimous voice of the
people.

Is not such man, which, possibly, is
the truth but, if we are judge Of hu-
man nature, the general, like all other
mortals, is not altogether above the
weakness OF ambition, is despotic in dis
position and can tolerate no curb upon

Oh, may that cursed JEFF Davis float
On open sea, in open boat,
In Iceland cold without a coat,
Glory Hallelujah!
Without a compass, sail or oar,
Ah milion miles away from shore,
Glory Hallelujah!
May sharks devour him stem and stern.
A whale engulph him down in turn,
And the devil get the whole concern.
Glory Hallelujah!
Oh, may the cursed traitor swell,
IN qarkest pits Of deepest hell,
And gnash his teeth, and groan and yell
Glory Hallelujah!
In burning birthstone may he be,
W nile little devils dance in glee,
Then lock the door and lose the KEY,
Glory Hallelujah!
