The man who does pot know that
the above paragraph contains two gross
falsehoods, has Owed his eyes to the
light for nearly two years-past.
The heaviest complaints made
against the President have been in con
consevence of his m•trines o r fezecriting
the Kansas Nebraska act, and not the
act itself; although that was bad enough.
The opposition to th.• President have
hurled invectives at him because he
removed Governm Reeder, simply be
cause that independent Pennsylvanian
would not he the tool of the Birder
Ruffians, They charge the President
with appointing in place of Governor
Reeder a drunken imbecile, who al.
lowed . the Border Ruffians to steal
horses, murder innocent men, burh
towns, destroy printing presses, and
carry on war in,thu name of the GAv.
