The weekly Ottumwa courier. [volume] (Ottumwa, Iowa) 1857-1872, 1871-06-08

The genuine. simon pure, original
old schovelty funk democrats, who
never learn anything and never for
get anything, are in as much OF q
flutter at Vallandigham's ''new de-
parture," as the historic old hen was,
whose brood of new fedged goslings
took to water as soon as they were
hatched.
1t now looks like the democrats
are, in their next national campaign,
to repeat the "Possum,, and "Sol-
der" farces, which illustrated their
folly in 1864-5 and 9.
A democrat is nothing unless he is
satanic. 1t is like tho devil trying
to play the "Heathen Chinee" on the
internal imps without forked tail or
split hoofs. 1t is confidence game
which the Deans and Pomeroys and
the unterrified can't and won't see.
Therefore, when the leaders OF that
party, either from good motives or
through the devious and cunning
devices Of strategy. direct their steps
in the "new departure" to the path
ways of loyalty and obedience to the
Constitution as IL is, and to q recog-
milton of the results of the war, it is
a tacit admission that their party is
dead, and thai there is nothing left
to be done but to bury its putrid
carcass out of sight and smell, for
which let us pray.

the most important point upon the

tap tho great system OF Iowa rail

question, it will be one of the most
enjoyable trips of the season, and it
stands us in hand to show st. Louis
