Drunken, scottish, bacchanalian land;
Land of braggarts and towards;
Wearisome,
Somnolent,
Drowsy,
Lazy,
Land; o.Ia.
Vain, stupid, Ignorant sunny Southland;
Wake up!
The staiwarts are after you.
With hip, hip, hoorah, they will noml-
nate Grant next year for President. II
With clang and chatter of swords, II
need be, they will inaugurate him the year
following ,Ao..
And then, oh bloviated habberghast'
IA
10y will purify you with Northern sait-
petTe, ..
And redeem You with Northern brains.
Till then adieu, oh land Of glittering gap |
and brilliant blather,
Uninyentive, unprogreseive land

IF the Lamars Sentinel thinks it is the
only paper gifted in the use OF epithe's
and the dissection Of paragraphs, 1t is MIS-
taken-fatally mistaken. We have south~
ern organ abvndantly able to cope with 1t
on this intellectual plane.
If it don't believe it let it read what
follows
From Okolona States,
But why squander logic on the stalwart
lepers?
Wilfully blind,
Malicously deaf.
Beeotted with hate,
Blazing with wrath.
We have borne and forborne with their
treasons. and murders, and robberies, and
periuries, until the whole Republic has be-
come debauched and demoralized.
What have we made by putting on kid
glove and treating these traitors gingerly'
| WHAT
Has one of them relented3
Has one Of them reformed?
No.
|
| THE DAY FOR ARGUMENT HAS PASSED.
THE DAY FOR ACTION HAS COME
|
If a nation Is proclaimed that Nation
must die the death; the life must be shot
or sabored out of the chief movers In its
creations, and the rank and file Of its sup
porters MUST BE DISFRANCHlsED.
Their next usurpation must be resisted
in a way that will teach them there is still
O 4od-a just, Almighty God-in Israel.
Protests will not serve.
What do these devils care for protests, OF
logic, or facts? :,
They must be checked in their mad,
unholy career by the Avenging Arm and
the Red Right Hand.
THE DELUGE WILL COME.
They will not be permitted TO transfer
another solitary right of State to the
general government.
} Not one
, The shermans, the Blanes, the Chand
lers, and all that mounting mob of wind!
word grinders, may call this Confederacy
ssnation" until their Threats crack open
but they will neve, be permitted TO make
q nation in point OF fact.
Their pestilent carcasses will hang II
chains and feed the vultures if they dare t
subvert the rights, set forth in the Constr
tuition by the old Continental Secessionists
. Unite, Democrats and proclaim thi
States Union dissoluble at pleasure.
Unite, and swear that the Amendments
shall be disrooted from the Constitution
Unite, and slam to forever the doors
the free-schools.
= Unite, and tell the Grants, the Shermanf
! the Gar6elds, and the vulgar varletry VIII
train under their flag, that you stand to- "a
where you stood in 1861, and are willing :
fight the old fight over again with ballots o
q MUSKET. BALLS.
a Prepare!
U Spot your traitors
Strip the straps from the shoulders @
a your bastard bastard Democrats.
a Place the old Guard in charge Of the gum
and open the campningn for the restoratto

!. Jefferson John @. Calhoun and Jetterso
Ii Davis.
II There, now, Mr.. Lamars Sentinel, 20
= $50 that you are not the only wild~eyed DO
OF destiny, nor the only ferce dealt
le in disjointed gunpowder and chappe
ID English. We have got an organ tbs
can grind 1t out as small as You
a. And we understand now what the States
up to. Its course heretofore has been q
impenetrable conrndrum to us. Never en-
dorsing the explanation that the States wa
y base or wilfully in the service of the enemy
'' or absolutely bereft of Its senses, we wei
- not little puzzled as to Its real purpos'
But 1t is all plain now. 1t was to beat 20
at your own game and with your ow
o weapons. Whom you preach again tab
your text from the States, and look shar
- or the Mississippi "labberghast" will NAL
- you ashamed of yourself and silence 20,
guns forever.
