Nv OvashuDs he he'd received In the
South, and he'd worn mornin on my hat
for two days in conscience. The idee
Wv Dimocrats bowin the knee to this
Ablishn Baal and doin him honor stung
me to the quick. And to think that he
shood hev the impoodence to come to
the Corners and undertake to conker the
Just prejoodisses Nv our sterlin Dimoc-
risy-that Dimocrisy wich never yit re-
garded time nor place, but wich ALLURE
mained troo to the cardinal pints Nv
Dimocrisy he shood come and try
to corrupt them, wuz too much.
Suthin he'd to be did, and that quick
| ly. Bigler sed he wood be here the next
day, and / convened meeting to-wunst.
1t wuz sad occashn. statid the OBJ
! lick in few words. Here was frod-
ulent President wich he'd bin goin over
the entire South-a Ablishn President
a traveln thro Kentucky and Tennessee,
and hedn't ez yit been killed. Not 80
much ez a single brick he'd bin SHE'D at
| him-not 80 much ez a single hiss or a
groan he'd bid hurld at him. Kisses and
groans and bricksl On the contrary this
representative Nv the Ablishn sentiment
NV the North he'd bin feasted and wined
and dined in the South, aud by Southern
menl
He wuz q comm to the Corners. Not
content with pOllutin louisville, he was
to continyoo his triumphel progress to
the Corners, and it wood be expected
that the Corners wood put its neck un-
der his yoke, and yelp hosanners to this
yooserper. Wood the Corners do it?

in the Postoff1s, and a Radikel in the
Collectors Offs, wood the Corners con-
slider itself satisfied? Neverl The troops
hev bin Withdrawal from Loosianer, but
so long ez them offlses is KEEP from the
Dimocrisy the remembrances Nv frat
risidle war still rankles in our buzms.
(The cheers wuz so vocifrus that l riz
with the occashun.)
Wat does all this mean? Where is the
DimocrisyH Wat is Dimocrisy, anyhow?
Hez the old sperit died out? DO them
Kentuckians wich are hurrahin for Hayes
realize the fact that he wuZ electid by
ablishn votes? Do they remember that
his sword il rusted with Suthern blood,
and that to sich ez him they owe the loss
Nv their niggers?
Are they still Dimccratsp
Who is this Hayes?
Does he believe in the last war with
Great Britain?
Does he believe in the resolooshens Nv
'OS?
Does he bleeve in free trade?
Does he bleeve that Jaxon wuz the
greatest Nv Amerikins, and that tie
volunteers from Kentucky and Ten
nessee wich wuz at Moo Orleens is de-
servin NV resolooshens at every Lime-
cratic cOnVenShun2
Is he opposed to internel improve

Is he in favor nv the extenshun Nv
slavery to the territories and is he op-
posed to the heresy Nv DouglasH
! Did he vote for secession?
Does he bleeve in States rites, and is
Ne in favor Nv hard money? Or ruther-
well, on the hard money question l amt
: so pertikeler, but, l sum it all up-is he
Dimekrat?
And then perposed the adopshen Nv

ez things now stood, but he was merci
full man. He didn't want to cut tn
yooserper off entirely, but desired to Civ
him a chance to gain the esteem NV tn
It, Corners. He wood give him one NOR

the Corners, and wood tend very muC
toward restorin that harmony and goC
