AN APOLOGIZE.
A Corral EpsOde-A Jackass and Jackass.
zeal Postas.er Exchange Views.

Every one recalls the apologies
of the ancient fable writers. In an
arologue an animal is permitted to
talk as though he were a human
being.
The Poetaster Watch maker, Jesse
III. Butler, the President of the
Finance Committee of the CoI neil,
the other evening took q stroll. In
passing corral he was attracted
by the extraordinary cordiality of
the bray with which a jackass
greeted him. The President of the
Finance Committee is nothing if
not poetaster and philosopher,
and he fell to musing upon the
brightness of the jackass's eye, as
shown in the beams of artificial
light, and the sonorousness of his
bray. Perhaps an impulse Of kim
dred stirred within his breast. He
paused and apostrophized the ami
NAL thus:
"Poor beast! Thou, too, hast not
had thy share of the good things of
this world. Could'st thou but give
voice to thy feelings"
To the infinite surprise of the
poetaster, the jackass said:
"But can give voice to my feel
ings. Once, within the span of my
brute life, it is permitted me to
speak, and L am moved, at your
approach, by that one touch of ma
ture which makes the whole world
kin. You and l are brothers. Your
performances as President of the
| Finance Committee of tho City
Council prove that"
Mr.. Butler, not relishiug the spe-
cious induction by which his long
cared friend established the parallel
-"Friend and brother-no, bother
it-ass, you are mistaken. My fig
ures are perfectly correct, aud 1
can demonstrate, in the face of the
world, that two and two make
fourteen"
"Peace, jesse" said the jackass;
sin your limited reading you have
heard of the theory Of the Metemp-
sychosis, by which the ancients
meant to express the doctrine of
the transmigration of the soul of
u man into the body of an
animal. That doctrine was
much derlded but true one.
In the shape of jackass, which
you see before you, is the soul of
true poet. But the doctrine has an
even wider truth. The souls of
animals are likewise transmigrated
into the bodies of creatures who
have the semblance of human be-
ings. Your body is to-day AMI
mated by the soul Of stupid An.
dalusian jackass. Proclaim this
fact to the world and it will then
understand the source of inspira-
tion of your trashy rhymes, which
are sans sense, sans rythm, sans
spirit, sans everything respecta-
ble.u
The Poetaster-'But if l am in
deed but the walking and human
tabernacle of so Indifferent brute,
how does it come that the people of
Los Angeles have preferred me to
such responsible trusts?"
"There, Jesse, thou hast me.
There must be good many trans-
migrated souls of Jackasses in Los
Angeles just now to make such q
result possible. Ask me something
easy. Your conundrum is too hard
one. You are part of the uni
versal cosmos and your present po-
sition in the municipality of Los
Angeles is accounted for in the
spirit of the fiippant lines,
Great fleas have little fieas
Upon their legs to bite 'eiu;
Little tleas have lesser fleaS.
And SO ad inflnitum.
AS l was saying"
But here the flash of the hostler's
lantern was visible and the jack.

A Democratic County Convention has
been called at Dexter on the same day and
hour,-with fusion in view we suppose
A division of the spoils is demanded If
the Democrats engage IN the great and
glorious work Of building up the Green.
back party. However, we are of the

Democrats of the county do not approve
of fusion. There is certainly no principle
involved. 1t is only disgusting sc=am-
bic for place and power.
