don't like to be called niggers, but,
let me ask, what are they if not Mig

orator caught sight Of tho solitary

greeted with round Of applause.
This was followed by glowing trib-

POLITICAL NOTES.

In the Birmingham Iron Age, o
Alabama, is an advertisement calling
for Confederate bonds for which the
advertiser is willing to pay fail
price.
When Fitzpatrick threw his conun
drum at u Pittsfield audience, "WhaI
was Tilden doing in the dark days
when Hayes was shoulder to shout
der with the army boys 7" boy in
the crowd replied promptly, "WiP
ing off his chinS"
The Now York Times says: awe
cannot say when Tweed began in
right earnest to be rogue, but it ev-
identity needed few years of politi
cal association with Mr. Tilden to &C
custom him to the crime of perjury
This is good hit, plumb center
from the New York Independent: "The
Democrats arc very much concerned
about the state Of Col. Bob. Inger.
soils immortal soul. John Morrissey
and Proctor Knott ought to organize
a revival for his benefit"
Henry Clay Dean is out in letter
to say: "Whcnever you hear of a
mulcy COW climbing up honcy-lo-
Gust tree tail foremost, and calving
in a crows nest then you may calcu
late that will vote for Hayes, not
till then" We are glad he is not for
Hayes, for we remember his New
Hampshire speech in which he said :
al do not know as | would hang one
legged and onc-armcd soldiers, but
would pray to God TO get them out
of the way as soon as possible" AT
Ottumwa he said "rhcsc one armed
soldiers who are thrust under our
noses as objects of charity, are fit car
cnsses for the 0alLo,Cs"
