Raper Comes too a little His friends

EDITOR .ENoUIRER:--Truth be-
ing an article seldom seen on
the manifest of a Radical cargo,
since the Cincinnati Convention,
the absence of that essential
element in politics is no longer
a novelty, and much less a sur
prise. The Record man has
such winning ways to make
one distrust him, and misrepre-
sentation being the first law of
his nature, and that half-bushel
| puke that turns down on his
stomach finding his exhausted
nature too weak to releave him,
and his brother editor-COUGH-
ENoUR, being absent on import
ent business and not likely to
return, the "Judge" found it
difficult to tell whether he had
swelled up like toad, and
was playing 'possum, till the
danger was past or was actually
h0rS-de-c0mbat. AS there was
nothing to be known by ap-
pearences, and less if possible
by his word, | applied the goose
battery to him in my former
article to see whether he was
in the body Or out. To take a
more solemn view of the matter,
the "Judge" may have erred by
so doing. Let us see:
When one is crossing the line
between the two worlds, it af-
fords his friends great consola-
ton if he looks back to this
sphere, saying: call is
we'll" But in this case the
battery brought the patient too,
just enough to give one haunt-
ing sneer at the only religious
journal published in the county,
and that just on its christian
warning liars to flee the
wrath to come.
If the result of the applica-
lion was bad, the intention was
good. When one is opposed to
5he dissemination of the relig-
GUS knowledge on what he
may deem some sort of princi-
pie, it is charitable to suppose
him a lunatic p?
But when his political pre-
udice has so far aimed his
moral sight with blindness that
ne cannot speak in becoming
;erms of a religious journal,
by a Democratic
press, he should lie down in
MS lair, like any other beast,
no more pretentions
% manhood, because he acci-
lentally got into the world
With two legs instead of four.
If buzzards eat skunks, his
owners may get rid of him
without further trouble, and his
rends should hasten to take
heir last sad look upon him, or
Else clab-board his windows,
spike his chimney, and lock
lis door before that army of
birds leave Vinton Station, as
the smoke of his chimney
would be thefrst object of at
to that sinking tribe.
The following lines are Of
cred as a warning to any who
nay think of following his foot
sleeps:
Had he died as honor dies,
Another Raper might arise
To shame his friends again;
But who would soar to such hight.
