lettering it with contentious, sectional
jealousies tyrannical boldness and unjust
stewardship.
Having confidence that the American
voter is capable of being instructed upon
this great issue of expansion, one can
safely anticipate a decisive victory at the
polls in 1000 tor the party that would
canvass the country with a lecture course

the lecture with lively impersonated re-

" COurtship of Uncle sam and Miss Phil

places of gathering would certainly be
entertaining, and win the hearts of a we'll

our fellow man, conscience. simplicity
and patriotism will be instruments of
utility and find great nourishment in such
a course.
