Onr committee meets at the saloon of Harvey the
Wise. Most of would rather meet at Boyle's or
Dcvelin's place Of business, but James the Council
man said John the Silent would not be caught where
they sold whisky: compromised by going to the
above mentioned place, and sharpened thoughts
on hard cider. overheard Republicans talking
about the morals of party and said that John
the Silent was the only religious Democrat two
others, that voted in the Wellston precinct.
Ipondered deeply this remark and, alas found it
to be too true. Almost every member of our club
either swears, lies takes the ardent, plays cards,
OF loves somebody else's woman. Often you find one
possessing all these accomplishments and 'you bet

refuse to be honored of us, to whom will point?
Since George the Truthful took that buggy with
our brother WOOlweaver of Hamden. and drank so
much corn jelly that he took his friend his bosom
in loving embrace, and yelled like Sitting Bull in
MS uellgnt- we can't point TO him. Hence only

church, but he is shrewd, and tell of many an
event that occurred when he was trustee of Milton
township, and how he prevented Republican rogues
from voting some fifteen years ago. We thought
when Hutchins was nominated, of the 'sRads'

our valiant southern boys, from whom strayed in
1851 and left to fight the battle Gf Estate Sovereignty
and "Christian Slavery Alone have taken back to
their counsels and wggle of old. The Enquirer
tells that the Southern Democrats loyal that

Fort Sumter, and at Pittsburg Landing, Chickamau-

TO the famed brigands of Italy, Hancock is man,
because he is such profound and quiet statesman,
that he will think not of the chestnuts after he claws
them out of the fire for the monkey.
YOURS AS BEFORE.
p. .S.-Aaron the Patriarch Just told l was id
fool for writing such letters and ought kicked
out of the party. But Pres. George called him
side and heard him tell him keep after
the election. Then Southern Major asked me to
go with him and take drink but my feelings too
much mortified and felt choked, and declined my
accustomed glass. L want to write awful bad, but
am thinking. DILEMMA.
