for that position by the Democratic sheet,
whose editor, he, ia the summer of 1864,
DETAINED in every conceivable way. He
spoke of him as drunken, dishonest,
disloyal, Indecent, imbecile man, who was
unfit to live in any community. MIR. ST.
bree also expects the support of the Cath
olics Of this county, and of these he
spoke in the most disrespectful man
ner; even going SO far as to represent the
democratic editor, referred to above, and
Catholic priest from Two Rivers one on
either side of the Bishop as reminding
him of ''the ancient scene on Calvary
with our Savior between the THO
Thieves. " But we will give few speci
mems of his handiwork, that it may be
seen we do not misrepresent the matter.
In doing SO we beg pardon of our readers
for reproducing so much filth, but it must
be remembered the author of all this
slang and billingsgate is seeking and ex-
poets the Office of County Judge. Read
this:


$50 it is plain to be seen, that with
what Jere gets out of the county, from
the Supervisors, for looking after its ad-
vertising, printing, educational, and may
be Political interests, will really pay for
considerable whiskey. '-Sibree an 1864.


Mr.. Sibree is now the bosom compan-
ion OF the said Jere was it the ''whis-
key" money that induced him to embrace
such bad man2 We will next give an
article complete in which Mr. Sibree at

"JERE's LAST-In the last issue, but
one, of the secesh Pilot, Jere in one of
his rare, lucid and sober intervals, told the
world generally that he concluded to let
us alone which we thought, and pro-
nOunced at the time, rather wise in him.
But the sober interval was of but brief
duration return to the bottle has sent
the dog back to his vomit; and last week
he served up the same re-hash of loaU
L-ash blachguardisna which is the natural
continual, and only product of his pen.
But, we appeal from Jere drunk to j ere
sober-and ask him to stand by his sober
determination, if it should be but for one
week, as an experiment. Do, Jere, just
give the people one solitary example of
decency.


Yet, after all, it may be that Jere had
very good excuse for what he said for
he has been to Two Rivers, at confession,
and has returned with a live coal from the
Two River alter, burning in his heart, and
something else burning in his stomach,
and with all the swagger of a T1pperary
Bogtrotter, bellows like Bull, and swears
like a COrnaugM Ranger; and all be-
cause we have faithfully recorded the de-
parture Of his supple friend and master,
Wm. NJ. Nichols, and his two horses.
Now that the District Attorney has been
a very good friend to his Ttco Ricer Reu-
erence, and Jere too, is exceedingly well
known. And, in fact the friendship of
ALL KINDS OF VILLAINS (?) from the mur-
derer down to the clothes thief and traitor
tor the District Attorney, is notoriously
we'll known and understood; and that be-
ing the case, how could Jere help loving
the District Attorney? And loving him,
how could he help mourning over him
And mourning over him, how could he
help defending him? And in defending
him, how could he help being a black
guard: But the great fault Jere finds
with US is that we told the people that
the District Attorney was gone, after his
back was turned that We did not tell
him he was gone, to his face Dear me-
Jere, there is too much whisky in that
proposition for us to comprehend it,
Nothing short of Delirium Tremens can
master such logic. But we will make
you this offer, Jere. IF you will only go
away after your friend, and agree to stay
away, we will tell the people you are gone,
any way you please, either behind your
back, or before your face. Nay. we will
do better than that, we will build you a
monument and write you an epitaph.

JERE's EpIrApH.


Here lived Jers Crowley, describe him who can,
An abridgment oil all that vile in a man.
An Editor, confessd, without rival to shine


As blackguard fnot first, in the very first line
A creature bereft of all virtue and heart;


But in Lying and Slander prince in the art.


OF whisky and rotgut terrible glutton,
In person disgusting and character rotten.


With such inducement will you do it
Jere2 Will you go? If you will neither
60 nor hold your peace, then you will Just
have to submit to us writing as we see fit
Please Jere just think the matter over
soberly, and make your choice .Stbree

The next paper We take UP contains ap
article which we hold contains more inde-
cency, more folly, more blasphemy, more
prejudice against the Irish and their re
llglon, than any man with the least spark
of genuine humanity in his composition
would ever have thought of, much less
print in public newspaper. No wonder
the TRIBUNE lost all its Irish subscribers
during the few weeks Henry Sibree Off
ciated as its editor We ask the Irish
especially, and Catholics generally, to
carefully read it. We-give it entire:


SAINT JERE-Our honest and pious
neighbor of the Pilot takes exceptions to
what we said last week about the hanging
of his "Gentlemany dog, Pedro;' and
is IN terrible rage about it. And were
it not that his only available remedy and
universal safety-valye, of name calling,
comes to his relief there would have been
a terrible explosion before now.


We. partially expected this, I'VE say
partially, because We did not know what
effect the vision of the hung Pedro might
have produced on the alarmed Jere, for
be it remembered, that 1t is some consid-
cradle time since we learned that Jeres
,ohole editorial stock in trade was of that
eminent and refined quality, and comes in
as an answer on all occasions.


If we write paragraph on patriotism,
Jere answers, you are black guard An
article on treason, he replies you are
