Hon. Jerry Simpson a False Prophet
CLIFTON FORGE, VA, Nov. is.


Mr.. EDITOR -
1t will be remembered that, during
our recent campaign, the Hon. (''Sock-
Iess') Jerry Simpson of Kansas, address
ed the citizens of Clifton Forge. as well
as those of many other towns and cities
of the Old Dominion; and that, during
the discussion of his popular theme here
he occasionally referred to the RepubIi-
can party. its principles, &C.; and, as
an excuse for not making more extens-
i've reference offered the following apoio-
gy,. viz: His father and mother had
Taught him, when young, to speak
gently of the dead This, no Doubt
was a delicious morsel to be rolled over
and under the tongue of this defunct
geranium, Mailing from the celebrated
garden spot of our Union-the great
State of Kanyes. But, at the same tilne
we are strikingly impressed with the
fact that his diagnosis OF the case was,
to say the least, inaccurately based. THAT,
instead of being dead was enjoying a
rip Van Wrinkle Sleep" For, while
this Kansas Populistic exponent was
perambulating the hills and valleys of
Virginia, applying his Qatack qaostr7taas,
writing his eDitaphs, proclaimings OBJ
sequies and erecting toombstones over
the last resting place of the G. O. 2,
which, in his estimation, was without
ancestry or hope of posterity; it appears
that in Kansas, -Jerry's home,-the de-
ceased, as if by the touch of Magic,
springs into renewed existence, with un-
surpassed vigor, and actually sweep the
State. Yes, carry 80 out of 101 counties
-burying beneath her fertile soil those
Doctrinarians, with their unhealthy and
insiped theories by whom and which
that great State, had been plagued. l am
constrained to suggest to Capt. S. that
in his own State, to say nothing of Penn
sylvania, New York, Ohio. New Jersey,
Iowa and others, the corps proved to be
an exceedingly lively one. And, equally
selfish, illiberal. bigoted and entirely
destitute of all social characteristics; as
| noticed by its voice, wherever ex-
pressed, that Jerry and family were
singly and collectively ignored-neither
Invited nor allowed to partake of the
crumbs which were necessarily scattered
during the corps festival But [ hope
that the Kansas statesman will excuse
such fragrant disregard of social (politi-
cali and parliamentary usage; because,
according to his own solution at was
t'de0dn Now, however. that the gentle>
man has returned to his native heath,
would it not be well for him to PROFOUND,
"Where am I at? But, Mr. Editor, |
shall not be less liberal than he; and
shall sspeak gently Off and to the
dead" Good by Jerry II!
