Sept. Is, 1877.
Yesterday the Corners wuz profound
| ly shocked. Joe Bigler wuz over to Sc
cessionville, and wen he returned he
spred the moose that the frodulent Pres
ident, Hayes, wuz on a Southern toor,
and he'd decided to make the Corners a
visit.
I WIZ profoundly alarmed. I he'd red
Nv ovashens he he'd received in the
South, and he'd wore mornin on my hat
for two days in conscience. The idee
Nv DEMOCRATS bowin the knee to this
Ablishn Baal and dom him honor stung
me to the quick. And to think that he
shood hev the Impotence to cum to the
Corners, and undertake to conker the
just preioodisses Nv our sterlin Dimoc-
risy-that Dimocrisy which never yit
regarded time nor place-but wich
alluz remained troo to the cardinal
pints Nv Dimocrisy-that he shood cum
and try to corrupt them, wuz too much.
Suthin he'd to be did, and that quick
~. Bigler sed he wood be here the
next day, and [ convened a meetin to-
wunst.
Tt wuz sad occashun. I statid the
obiick in a few words. Here was a
fraudulent President WITCH he'd bin goin
over the entire South-a Ablishn Presi-
dent-a travlin thrO Kentucky and Ten
nessee, and hedn't ez yit been killed.
Not so much ez q single brick he'd bin
SHE'D at him-not so much ez single
hiss or groan he'd bin hurld at him.
Kisses and groans and bricks On the
contrary this representative Nv the Alb
lishn sentiment Nv the North he'd bin
feasted, and wined, and dined in the
South, and by Southern men
He wuz a comm to the Corners. Not
content with pollutin Louisville, he wuz
to continyoo his triumphel progress to
the Corners, and it wood be expected
that the Corners wood put it's neck un-
der his yoke, and yelp hosanners to this
yooserper. Wood the Corners do it?
Cries Of never! never! With a niger
in the Postofis, and Radikel in the
Collectors Offs, wood the Corners con-
slider itself satisfied? Never! The
troops hey Din Withdrawal from Loosi-
amer, but so long ez them offises is KEEP
from the Dimocrisy, the remembrances
NV fratrisidle war still rankles in our
buzms.
The cheers wuz so vocifrus that I riz
with the occashun.
Wat does all this mean ? Where is
the Dimocrisy? Wat is DEMOCRACY any
how? Hez the old sperit died out? Do
them Kentuckians wich are hurrahin for
Hayes realize the fact that he wuz elect
id by ablishin votes Do they remember
that his sword il rusted with Suthern
blood, and that to SIGH ez him they owe
the loss Nv their niggers?
Are they still Dimecrats?
Who is this Hayes?
Does he believe in the last war with
Great Britain?
Does he believe in the resolooshens NV
'98.
Does he bleeve in free trade?
Does he bleeve that Jaxon was the
greatest Nv Amerikins, and that the vol
unteers from Kentucky and Tennessee
witch wus at Moo Orleens are deservin Nv
resolooshens NV thanks at every Dime
cratic conyenshun?
Is he opposed to internal improve
ments, and does he still shout for ''free
trade and salers rites ?"
Is he in favor Nv the extension of
slavery to the territories, and is he op-
posed to the heresy Nv Douglas?
Did he vote for secession?
Does he bleeve in States rites, and is
he in favor Nv hard money? Or ruther
well, on the hard-money question I
amt so pertikeler, but I sum it all up
is he Dimekrat
And then perposed the adopshen Nv
the follerin reslooshens:
WAREAs A frodulent President, which is a
yooserper, is making toor Nv the South, and
IShed bin reserved with demonstrators NV APP
proval by Suthern Dimekrats and
WAREAs, The sed President is President de
fakto and not President de jure.
Deekin POgram-" Parson, wat is de
fakto and de jury ?"
/ explained to the Deekin that them
terms was furrin in their strukter, but
he'd bin yoosed in Eastern Dimekratic
noosepapers, and must therefore be good
phrases, and that I wood explane EN- to
him at some fucher time, and went on
and deserves the reprobashen, instid NV
the applause Nv all Dimocrats, and
WAREAs, We nv the Corners, heYing never
heerd that this yooserper hez a single one NV
the time-honored principles NV the Dimocratic
party, but is in all respects bloody-minded
ablishnist, therefore, be it
ResolUed, That in antissipashen Nv his comm
the Corners be dressed in mournin.
Res0IUed, Ez sense Nv the hoomiliashen
the Corners feels at his comm. that the day he
is here shell be a day Nv fastin and hoomilia-
shen, and that to properly express our feelins,
Bascom shell close on that day, and the Corners
shell gnash its teeth.
Resol0ed, That doorin the stay Nv the yoo-
serper the Dimocrisy Nv the Corners sheel keep
within Their doors, and leeve the welcomin Nv
the sed frod to the niggers and radikels.
The resolushen closin Bascom's wuz
modified into dressin his front and also
the barls in black Grape, at Bascom's
expense, and the resolooshens wuz
passed YoOnanimusly.
