A Cabinet Meeting—Letters from Rev. Hen ry Ward Beecher, Gen. Custar, Henry J. Raymond and Hon. John Morrissey. OoN FED KIT X IvOAUS, | (wicli is in theStait uv Kentucky,) ,- November 7, lKtjti. ) 1 wuz called to Washington by our patron Saint, the President, to comfort his wounded sperit. There ain't no disguisin the fact, the sperit of Androo Johnson is wounded. He hez endoor ed the slings and arrers uv more ont rajiis fortune than any other man who hez lived since the days uv liamlick more, indeed, than liamlick endoored twict over. Hamlick's lather wuz pizoned and bis mother married agin afore her mourning clothes wuz wore out, suthin on savin, prudent woman would do; hut what wuz that to wat. A. Johnson eudoors every day?— Nothin. The Cabinet meetin to wich I wnz summoned wuz called for the purpose uv sheddin a tear or two over the elec tion returns, and to consider a variety uv letters wich His Eggscoliency had received within a few days. I may re mark that the Cabinet hod a gloomy and mildewed look. The fust wuz from Rev. Henry Ward Beecher. Mr. Beeeher remarked that he hed the highest possiblerespeek for the ortis wunst held by the good Wash ington, the great Adams and the saint ed Linkin. lie omitted remarkin any thin about Peerce and Bookanan out uv regard for the feelins uv the pres ent incumbent, which if he'd red his tory correct, wuz a ardent Mipporter uv the Adininistrashens uv both uv them men, wich he considered stairs upon the pages uv American history wich ho cood wish mite be obliterated. But wat he desired to say wuz that lie hod a higher regard for the good opinion uv mankind in general than lie hed tor the good opinion uv the acci dental incumbent uv any offis and ez he hed, in a hour uv temporary meu tal aherrashun, which hed happily passed, endorsed the Administrashen, wich insanity hed worked evil unto him, ho repeated ez a simple act uv justice that the President should cause it to he known that he, (Beecher) wus not considered by the Administrashen ez a supporter thereof. ' I do this,' sed the writer,' bccoz the impression that I am in the confidence uv yoor Eggseellency, wich is on fort u nately abroad, hez seriously damaged my reputashen.' Trooly yoors, et settry. The read in uv this letter wuz fuller ed by a minit uv profound silence wich wuz broken by the President: ' I him pass,' sed the great man, who hez tiao Jlrtpotism uv the postofli sis, ' let him pass, lint hero is another/ sed he, bustin into tears, ' read that.' It wuz from Gen. Custar, him uv the yaller hair, wich hed some reputashun doorin the war ez a cavaly camman der. It wuz to the same otlect. He lied when he spozed that the policy uv the President, wich he esteemed ez he must any man who held the exalted position wunst okkepied by the good Washinton, the great Jefferson and the sainted Linkin— 'The ungrateful dog doesn't respect ME/ sed Androo, 'its the oftiis I till/ and he bust into a fresh flood. When he spozed the President's policy wuz sich ez a soljor and patriot cood endorse, he endorsed it But he diskivered that it led him, back tore most, into company wich, doorin the late war he hed alluz visited lace tore most and on hossback, and therefore, to save his reputation, be must beg that the President wood give it out, that he (Gen. Custar) wnz not nor never h:d bin a sujiportor tiv his p1 i cy, and ohli'ge, Yoors troolv, ez before. I wnz inu h--arthroken at this to make any reply, ami Cowan and Doo little wuz in the same fix. The Kur neluy wich wnz given to C'ustar to keep him in posishen, hed been promised to a diinokratic captin, who wuz led by a company in the first Bull Run fight, and who threw up the next da}' in dis gust, not likin the manner in wich the war wuz conducted, but the kurnelcy wuz gone and Custar too, wat wuz worse, there wuz no sich thing to be thot uv ez dismissin him. The entire company yoonitcd in minglin their teers. The next letter wuz red by Seward, ez it wuz eddressed to hira It wuz from Raymond He opened with ihe romark that for the Presidential oflis he tied the highestrespeek. Aside from the considerashun that it hed been okkepied bj' the good Washinton, the great Adams, and the sainted Linkin, the President might he considered the father uv his country, bavin so large a number of helpless children to provide for, besides hed a instinktive respeck for the dispense of any thing. It wuz difficult for him, bein a simple-minded man. not to ail | here to the President, but — • Good Heaven " shrieked Johnson, j 'that little fox aint goin to speak of his reputashen V 4 Dooty requires the readin uv the | entire dockeyment, painful to my feel j ing ez it may lie.' said Seward, • he con J eludes thusly ' 1 am forced to ask you ez one en jorin contidenshal relashuns with Iliin ; who occupies the Presidential chair, to I hev it given out that I stand in oppo | sition to him. A doo regard for my ; reputashen impels me to this course.' I remain, yoors trooly. There wuz 2 or three more. Gen. ; Carey, uv Ohio, reqzested tho Presi i dent to remove him from his Collector ship, ez the holdin uv it wuz injurin his reputashen; a editor out West, who wuz sedooced into takin a Post offis, beged to hev it taken off his hands, that lie might save his eircula | shcii before it wuz everlastingly too j late; and finally we come to wan, the ! zeal of wich wuz a co:it uv arms, bull dog rampant, bowie knife coitchant, ( supported by trottin liorses, on a field |uv green cloth. It wuz from Hon. j John Morrissey, who lied jest been j elected to Congress in Noo York. • .Nlr. Morrissey remarked, that ez one uv the pillars uv the Democrasy, lie felt lie hed a rite to speek. He wish | ed it to be understood that he washed ■ his hands uv any eonnecshun with ) Johnson or his party. He hed seed ! a life. In States where tho Demoera I ey, uv which lie wuz a pillar, hed tied j themselves to Johnson, they hed gone | down to a promatoor grave. Respect for the high offis restrained him from say in that the Democracy coodent car ry sicii a cussid load, hut he wood say that the result uv the election in Xoo York, where they dependid solely on muscle and nigger, wich is reel I>iino cratic capital, and succeeded, while where Democracy wuz loaded down with Johnsonism they failed, satisfied him that the President wuz ainkubus. lie sod this with all doo respeek for the otfis. Mr, Morrissey further re marked, that he hed also personal rea sons for makin this request, lie com menced in a humble position, and hed tilled the public eye long enouff to sat | isty his modist ambishen —he hed wal loped Sullivan and Heenan —he hed owned the fastest horse and won more money at taro than any man jn Amer ika. llis ambishen wuz satisfied so tiir ez lie wuz eoncerned, hut lie hop ed to leave behind him for his infant son, (wich wuz only twelve years uv age and which hed a development uv intelleck and muscle remarkable for one so tender, hevin already walloped every boy in the skool to which he wuz goin.i he desired to leave that son a honorable name It hed been given out ho wuz a supporter uv the in dividooal who okerpied the Presiden shel offis, and it wuz injoorin him. Ho wished that stigina removed—a regard for his reputation forced him to insist upon it. And this epistle was dooly signed, his JOHN X MOIiKISEY, M. C. mark. There wuz silenco in the Cabinet. This last stroke intensified the gloom wich hed settled onto the Government, and ez I turned my tear bedewed eyes I saw the great drops coursiu down the cheeks uv every one present. Mr. Seward retired without saying any thing about ninety days, arid one by one they all departed. It wuz a solemn time. Thero wuz other letters yet to read, but no one hod the heart to open 'em. I inado a move in that direckshun, but Androo Vol. LVI. No. 48. prevented ine. ' I'm sick," murmured he in a husky voice, wich showed his hurt win-, peere d-' Help mo to hod.' I snw tlie great man bury his intellec tooal head beneath the snowv kivrin II v his uneasy couch, ail but the nose wich in him is tho thermometer uv the solo, and wich accordingly glowed, not with the yoosooal brilliant hue, but with a dull, dead and ghastly bloo.— Noticing the convulsive heavins of the kivers, wich betrayed the agit ashen uv the breast beneath, I whispered in his ear ez I handed him his nite drink, uv rye whisky, flavored with Bourbon, that he lied one hold, ez Delaware hod sustained him. A flush uv satisfaction passed over his nose, hut if subsided in an instant. 'Troo,' gasped he, 'its ourri now, hut before the next election a couple uv them Massuchoosisls will buy the cuHsid State and re.people it too soot 'em,' and he gave a eonvul i sivo gasp anil sank into a troubled i slumber i It wuz atcchin occashun. I PET HO I,E UMV. NAS BY, P. M., (wich is Postmaster.) 4 of Di iinkard^ Tho most foolish predicament a man can get into is to got drunk. Tn drunk enness every man shows his strongest side, and most ardent passion. There are six kjnds of drunkards, and if you will go into a drinking place where there are a dozen men under the influ ence ol liquor you will be sure to find these six different characters, repre senting different animals. Ihe first is ape-drunk He leaps, and sings, and yells, and dances, mak ing all sorts of grimaces and cutting up all sorts ol '• monkey shines" to ex cite the laughter of his follows! Ob, terribly silly is the drunken clown. Ihe second is tiger-drunk. He breaks the bottles, breaks the chairs, breaks the heads of fellow caroueers, and is full of blood and thunder. His eyes are fired with vengeance, and his soul raves with murderous fury. Of this sort are those who abuse their families. Ibe third is bog drunk. He rolls in the dirt on tho floor, slobbers and grunts, and going into the street makes bis lied in the first ditch or filthy cor ner he may happen to fall into. Hois heavy, lumpish and sleepy, and cries in a grunting way for a little more drink. The fourth is puppy drunk. He will weep lor kindness, and whine bis love and bug you in bis arms, and kiss you with bis slobbery lips and proclaim how much he loves you. You are the best man be ever saw, and lie will lay down his money or his life for you. Ihe filth is owl-drunk. He is wise in his own conceit. No man must dif fer with him for his word is law. He is true in politics, and all matter must be taken as authority. His arm is the strongest, his voice the sweetest, his horse the fleetest, his turnips the larg est, his town the finest of ull in tho room or land. The sixth and last animal of our me nagerie is the fox-drunk man. lie is crafty, ready to trade horses and cheat you if he can. Koen to strike a bar gain. leering around with low cunning, peeping through cracks, listening un der the eaves, watching for some sus picious tiling, sly as a fox, sneaking as a wolf, he is the meanest drunkard of them all. ftay* Some philosopher advises the girls not to marry blacksmiths, beeauso they all have vices. KsuTbe Buffalo Courier, Democrat ic organ in Western New York, says: " Let our colored b. ethren possess their souls in patience. The Democratic party will see that they have their rights " The New Lisbon (Ohio) Buck eye State says: "A newly married couple, in bridal costume, recently stopped in this place to spend a few days of the honeymoon. The groom borrowed SSO of an accommodating gentleman, and then mysteriously dis appeared. The bride wept and tore her hair at thus being left without utonoy, and without friends, and the sympathizing inhabitants of our town contri utol liberally for her relief, about one hundred dollars being dona ted She then di.-appearcd, and it has since transpired that the promising couple had played the same game in several other towns in the State.
