Packard, however, is PLAYING dangerous

well nigh exhausted, and Il d they
are again 1. forced into "a conflict
which is calculated and designed to again
rob them Of the government OF their choice
and the blessing OF an honest and eihelent
administration, then wrath will be difhcnlt
to restrain; and we, for one, hope no :hand
viii be able to restrain 1t. u Mr.Pae 4, 20 !,
forces this conflict, we appeal to- Dur friends
Ito spare, as' far as a'final and complete vic
et0fy viii permit, the lives OF the Metropoii-
Etans and negro dupes. We advise them to
upon the leaders oi this ubiquitous, MUIR
derons, and most famnabie scheme, and to
follow Parkard INTO his hotel and II need
+ be Into the custom house Itself, and hang
him fromits highest wine dow.
