Going for the Alliance.

The Jenkins Creek correspondent
said ne had tried to show me that
everything red was not blood. II
was aware of that fact before, for l
have seen some time ago the red
flag that he and his allies have rails
ed against the merchants or CAPT
talisis of the country. / know that
is one thing that is not blood, and
if it was / would hate for any of it
to run in my veins. I think it IN
dictates something worse-a bad
principle.
Remember the text we started
out on. Some preach from sext
and others to it. / am going to tr.
to preach to mine. I will try and
have the pint out this time and
make it SO plain that he will see the
point. The first thing I will notice
the advice he gave his brethren not
to have anything to do with certain
parties because he imagined that
they had been treated little wrong
by them. If any one does not do
right let's have revenge. An eye
for an eye, tooth for tooth. The
next point is: 'sNow, Mr.. Mer-
chant, if we get on your toes little
by trying to break you down, why
lyou just keep your mouth shut
don't raise your bristles. You are
too prosperous; you are getting
along too well. AS I can't reach
you 1 will bring you down on lev.
Ell with me-" Oh! what preaching
for a man that sets himself up as ar
angel of light.
Remember, you are sowing,
Il Sowing both by words and deeds,
And the seed that you are sowing
Nill produce obnoxious weeds.
/ have been very much bothered
about an angel of light sowing sucl
seed; but old Brother Peter steps t.
, the front and explains by telling Vi
that the devil has his angels o
light. I think he got entirely OF
of his subject and run into mine
and every time he quoted Paul h
preached condemnation to himself
!, Now, honorable sir, please do no
affect the innocence of the dove t.
hide the cunning of serpent.
i Well, my friend said something
about me belonging to the chu
tribe of fish. am very well &C
> quainted with that tribe-they ar
!. a very rich, fat, greasy fish and ar
= generally used to furnish grease 70
: horny heads, and as you belong t
the other tribe that is all skin an
bones, I think you became a littl
. squeaky in your last and / will tr
: and oil you little in this so 20
can run level In your next. Tha
is what's the matter with the coun
! try now; the horny heads are envi

= to get the shoe on the other foe
J. and furnish the grease themselves
l think the statistics show tn
:, clubs are forty eight million
. strong, the horney heads about 81
} and no grease. Now I think 20
had better borrow little greas
and rub on your knotty heads 8
! they will get slick and then get t
! your holes.
II I wonder what made my littl

= boom. Was it because, like sh

e to say? He also said that the

II does that spell? / have seen NOR

= Now, lny dear friend, l bid you

= leave you in future ever make you

= A FARMER.
