CoNFEDRIT X ROADS (wich Is in tho state
NV kentucky, July l. 1SS0.-There hez been
altogether too much murmrin among tho di-
mocrisy NV the Corners TO SCOT me, and de-
terminod to bring IL TO a he'd. The first dooty
nv dimekrat is TO vote the tikkit sOt aiore
him, aud ef ho can't do that he amt no dime
krat. Tho western landlord who he'd fasii-
ious boardcr wicl didn't like hash he'd the
proper method. Whom the boarder put in
mild protest that he wood like suthein beside
hash the landlord pulled out q carvin knife, and
soezn him by the throte remarkt: " You do
like hash. don't you 2" The boardor looked
Mt the knife aud concoodid that hash wuz tho
best possible food for him, and order wuz re-
stored TO wunst.
Pcrcisely so in pollytix. Ef a dmecrat
don't like nomnashun the carvin knife must
be appealed to.
Doekn Pogram sworo that he wooden't vote
for Hancock, nohow. Hancock wore a bloc
uniform deorin tho war, and he (Pogram) hod
suffered too much by tho sutjoogashen NV the
south TO support any man wich he'd ASSISTED
in tho subjoogashon.
, Issaker Gavitt woodent vote for Hancock,
becoz he blceyed that rilden shood hcv bin

open barl or two.

Captain M'Peter remarkt that the nomna.
sbun NV Hancock wuz betrayal NV the south,
becoz Hancock he'd born arms agin the central
jees nv southern democrisy.
j he'd one reply TO make TO these misgidid
mon, wch l did. Ez to tho bari, there
wuz other barls besides Tildon's. Hancock
hodnt much NV bari, but he he'd trends wich
he'd, aud English he'd one of his own. The
Corners mustn't jump at conclooshuns. The
Corners kin wait. The rolrcshon shower will
come, and the Corners will git all that II Is
entitled to. No reform dimocratic committee
is a goin into n canpane without money, and
we shell git our share NV 1t. 1t Is us Nv the
Corners who hoz TO colonize the southern
counties in Imjeaney, for tho October eeck-
shun, and NV course ther will DO money per-
vided to pay our expenses. So much for that.
