_ * Sincerely and gratefully your .friend.
JOHN BRODHEAD.
How much'Mr. Brodhead may be beaten
we couldn't pretent to guess. It will be
something less - than a but enough
to increase his ardor for a troop of doOle,
likely' "niggers" somewhere beyond ;the
limits of Proclamations, and the " home"
he longs for "in the . , Sunny South." If
John is wise, like the eld - captain, being al : -
ready crippled, he hid better hoot now,
for there will ,be awful thunder about his
'ears on the second 'Tuesday of Octabeii.
If his party has not 'geese enough to vitt+
draw him, he ought to 'have sense enough .
to withdraw himself, and keep withdrawn* .
until he gets to some place where they neith
er write nor read letters, and where his en
lightened ideas of civilization could vegetate
,without- encountering the old fashioned lin- -
manitarism of ebristianity and the Bible.
Farewell, John! .

the county and a man Characterlied l'or his
urbanity of Manners and good , sense. -

liberal contributions' to every objecthaving,

duties, of which office he performed for three
years to the entire satisfaction of 'men 'of all
