and the noted half blood Cherokee,
Col. + C. Bondinot, at its tail, and the
object Of this Ring is to get Il law

The worst faction and the most vi

and govern the policy Of Congress, at
a lime when moderation is Il necessity,
and the calmcst wisdom can hardly
suffice for what has to be done. Car.

six years have bankrupted all the re.
constructed States, and brought dis
grace and defeat on the Republican
party, are now in the ascendant at
Washington, and more powerful than
ever before.
Discarded and dcspiscd by the peo
