1SS4.-The nooze from Boston anC
Moo York wich follered the nomina
shun Nv Blaine and Logap, thrilled
the Corners from central to serkum
ference. Our sperits he'd bin drop
pin eyir sence we heerd from Chica
go; for we he'd he'd eggsperienct
with Blaine. We knowed him to bt
a fiter from Fitersville, and ez We
wuzen't shoor who we should nomi
nate, We wuz in frame Nv minC
about it.
! Ef the great statesman, Tilden,
he'd av axceptid the nominashen
we shood hev he'd some consolashen
We wood hev tapped his barl, and
We shood hev lived well durin the
campane, even ef we didn't win al
the eend, but now that that old i'm
besile hez declined, the chances are
that we shell nominate sum man
wich hezn't got money to pay for
votes, and wher will the incorrupti-
BILE Democracy be then? To hev a
candidate without money envelop-
us in gloom indeed.
But wen we heerd that Horper's
Weekly and Jorge Wilyum Curtis
and the Bostin Republican papers
he'd gone back onto Blaine, we wuz
happy. To hev that class of Repub-
likins come over to us. to sekoor pu-
rity in party management and re-
form in the Government, is a COM
pliment wich we trooly appreshiate.
Ef they are honest in ther demand
for purity, and hev money to put up
to buy US with, the millennium hez
bin finally struck, and the Dimocri-
sy will be happy. Eff they come,
however, with cold abstracshens,
and want to simply dictate to us,
without doin anything themselves,
they amt so valuable acquisition.
We are willin to subscribe to
their resolooshens denandin reform,
but they must accompany them
with acteoal dollars. The Dimocri-
sy Nv Kentucky and Injeanay amt
very smart, but in a struggle for re-
form they kin all NV EN- reed the
figgers on the end of a bank note.
1t wuz, however. help from a
source which we didn't expect We
wuz not shoor whether the Lord he'd
gone asleep or gone on journey, or
whether the devil had got a spasm
Nv unusyooal activity. Wv course l
called meetin at the meetin house
to wunst, and it wuz the most en-
thoosiastic l hev ever presidid over.
Cheers rent the very roof, and they
wuz old-fashioned cheers the regler
old Rebel yell, which he'd parshelly
gone out Nv fashion, but wich cum
to us ez materially ez anything in the
world.
Deacon Pogram submitted Sc
ries NV resolooshens, wich red eZ fol-
lows:
WAREAs, The Republican papers
and statesmen NV Boston, and the
Moo York Times and Harper's
Weekly. wich is now ably edited by
George Wilyum Curtis, hez. in the
interest of reform, bolted the nomi-
nasnens Nv Blaine and Logan. and
severed their conneckshun with the
abolishin party, and
WAREAs, Them papers and Iced
ers hevin cut loose from the Repub-
likin party must 60 somewhere, and
ez ther amt any other place for em
to go they must come into the ranks
Nv the Dimocrasy; therefore be it
Resolved, That the Corners for
gives em for past wickednis and vel
comes EN- corielly into full fellow
ship.
Resolved, That the Corners don't
give dam whether they jine the
Dimocrisy, nominate Independent
ticket, or stay to hum, either course
workin together for good for the
Corners, ez tits jest that much assist
ance for the Dimecrisy.
Resolved, That We ine hands
with these parties, we forgive all the
dirt they hev thrown at US, and they
forgive all the dirt We hev histed at
them. From this time out we shell
magnanimously let by-gones be by
cones, and standing shoulder to
shoulder in the interest Nv reform,
will eccept their aid to hist Repub-
likins out Nv the post-offices and put
us safely into EN-.
Resolved, That eff eny Nv em
shood appeer as delegates to the
Dimocratic Nashnel convenshen, we
shell expect NV em a pledge, with
sekoority satisfactory to US, that
they will support the ticket we shell
put in nominashen. We want no
disintegratin elemence in our party,
and won't hev it. We are perfectly
willin sich men shell take part in the
Republican conversions, and, eff
beeten, kick over the traces. but that
sort NV thing won't work with us.
Resolved, That sence Henry Ward
Beecher hez, in the interest NV puri-
tv and reform, refoosed to support
Blaine and iihed US, the Corners on
besitatingly declares its beleef in the
absoloote purity of his charakter,
the opinions and statemence Nv
Theodore Tilton and Mrs. Elizabeth
Tilton to the contrary notwithstand-
ing.
Resolved, That the Corners SYM
patizes heartily with George Will
yum Curtis and the dozen civil SER
vice reformers wich hev bolted
Blaine. The ackshen of the Chicago
convenshen in concentratin the pow
er NV the party III the hands Of its
entire membership instid NV diffoo-
sin it thro the dozen dissatisfied del
egates, cannot be too strongly con-
demned by them wich believes in
the rite of the people to rool. The
Corners will uphold the hands NV
these dissatisfied delegates ez Aron
and Hur did them ov Moses.
Resolved, That the continyooance
in the post offs NV the Corners NV
the nigger Lubbock, and in the col
lector's offs NV Pollock. a carpet

ez his deputy, while sech patriots ez
