Breckinridge's nerve is to be admired,
even though one may find fault with his
judgment. That he is a bad 'un from
away back he has not heretofore at
tempted to, nor does he now deny. His
only plea, now, is that he has always
been true and loyal to Kentucky. This
reminds the New York Recorder of the
good old story of Colonel Yell, of Yell
vile, who was also a bad job lot. He

will threaten with arrest every carriage
driver who goes over the cross-walks
faster than a jog-trot, and yet allows

all he desired, and the money, he said
would be forthcoming just as soon as he
could earn it, "Oh, don't bother me now;
you can wait a few days" was the reply.
81 am too busy to talk; l am looking
after the wants of the sufferers out near
the Weber county line!"
The American Fork Item says "a nice
little pony was sold down there the
