    "MY POLICY,"
OR,
Thf Jlew «»o*pel of rcaw ao»
coriilng to St. Antl)' the Apos
tate.
CHAPTER I.
1. Now the birtli of St. Andy was in
tlii» wise : The Devil bejat Burr ; Burr
begat Calhoun; Calhoun begat Davis ;
Davis hesat Booth, and Booth begat St.
Andy the Apostate.
2. Behold the lord of the lash ap
] tared unto Andy in a dteam saying,
"thou shalt get thee up from thy aboli
tion slumbers and gird on thy armor, for
thou shalt be our tool, and we will make
thee ruler over Israel."
3. .Thou shalt be called Moses, and by
thy exceeding subtility thou shalt lead
the children of Israel backward through
the Bed Sea of their own blood into the
land of l' gypt, and the houso of bondage.
4. Now all this was said that it
migljt be fulfilled which was spoken by
the mouth ol the prophet, sayiug, "Be
hold 1 will call the roll of niy slaves, from
the top of the great white house, aud
they shall answer by a pow wow. in the
Wigwam at the sea shore.*
5. Now, Andy being raised from sleep
by a Gin Coc'c Tail, went and did as the
lord of the lash had commanded him,
nnd he kurw no more the ways of right
cousness. And the dagger of the assassin
made a new President, and he called
hie namo Moses, —because he made a
great noise like a bull in the rushes.
OH A PTE 11 11.
1. In those days came John the Both,
(he was called Both.) because he wis
both man and devil, and he preached in
the wilderness of Secessia by the banks
of the Potomac.
2. Saying, rejoice yo, fjr tho king
dom of Jeflie is near at hand.
3. Eor this is he that was spoken of
by the prophet Abraham, saying, "I
would rather be assassinatod ou tho spot."
4. Now, behold he that conicth after
me is a mighty tailor,'aud I am not wor
thy to stoop down and behold his close
fit.
5. Then comcth the Tailor from Ton
ne Fee to Washington, to be baptized of
him, and Booth said, "I am not worthy,"
but Andy said, it must bo bo, for this is
'•My Policy."
0. And he baptize! him in tha blood
of Abraham, and Christened him, Mo-
Fen ; and a voice from Rebeldom, cried,
Peace ! Peaoa! Now we will have peace,
—Lei us kill ihe nigger.
7. And Moses said, "Yes, wo will have
peace : And he issued a declamation.and
immediately the cry of murder began to
be heard in the laud ; and Moses said,
listen ! I told you we would have. peace
8. And every man who hud committed
murder, he made a ruler in Israel ; and
no loyal man dare come uuto him, for
they were all "dead dwki" in the aew
dispensation.
CIIAPTKR 111.
1. Now it came to passthut Moseswas
more sober than he had ever been befcre.
2. And he said, I will make a great
lamentation iu the land of Israel. I will
pull my hair, end tear my close fit, and
ntake treason odious.
3. But presently Moses grew too big
Jorliis close tit, and the lord of' the lash
took him into au exceedingly black tem
ple of the southern chivalry and the lord
of ihe lash spoke unto Moses, saying :
All these will I give thee if thou wilt
lead them back iuto Egypt
4. Now Mosfs remembered how his
father-in-law had a colored temple, and
he said, I was a Tailor, and always made
u close fit.
6. And Moses said it is writton, "Man
shall not live by tailoring alone, but he
shall have uu office once and a while."
Therefore, he said unto the lord of the
lash : Thou art my god, and if thou wilt
make "My Policy" President, 1 will be
your Moses to lead the children of Isra
el backward through the Red Sea of
their own blood into bondage.
6. Now, the lord of the lash spoke
again unto Moses, saying, Heboid thou
art a Taylor and art slow of good speech,
lut 1 will make Doolittle and Ha} mood
fpeak for thcc, and I will make them
bawl ns young calves bawl for milk, and
whichever bawls the luu Ic* shall be High
Priest in the black temple.
CHAPTER IV.
1. Ucii Booth had finished his work,
he cried, "Sic Semper Tyrnnnis," und
the lord of the lash called him to his bo
som, and the P. P. Vs., worshiped him.
2. But c certain Boston Corbet punch
ed Roothin the seek, and he departed
for a wanner country, to prepare another
place for the mighty Tailor.
3. Now, when the wise men of tho
East heard what was done, they came to
see the child that was born by a dag
ffcr, and they fell down and worshipped
him.
4. And he said unto himself, I am no
longer a Tailor, but I aui "some pump
kins."
5. And seeing the great multitude his
little foul was trouWoU, and he got up at
night and went up into the great White
House aud opened his mouth, saying :
G. Blessed is the Tailor, for he was
once a hvrnc in a city aud now he is Pres
ident.
'7. Blessed is every man that curteth
the nigger, for I was a
8. Blessed arc all those who shall
mourn for tho poor Tailor, for they shall
be comforted
9. Ble&cd is every uiuu that killed a
nigger, for ho is a peace maker and child
of the mighty Tailor.
10. Blessed arc those that do huuger
and thirst after "My Policy," fur they
shall be filled.
11. Blessed are all those who shall
hove murdered loyal men tor they shall
be made Mayors of cities apd Governors
of Statu.
12. Blessed are the States that rebell
ed, for they shall be cxaltod.
pursed is every umu that curfrtli
ii then gger, I r lie aha 1 have no Civ
il I!igh;s, ueither shall he have a Bu
r an.
14. Cursed is every man "that fought
to sustain the luion, for he shall be
turned out of « ffice and his place filled
with the children of the tribe of Jeflie.
15. Cursed is every man that wor
shiped not the T»ilor, for ho is now a
mighty man in Israel, and the shadow of
his ciose fit may ue seeu in NewJOileans.
It! Verily I say unto you, Thadeus
aud.Sumner are traitors, and I'orne. is
a "Dead Buck," they shall have no office,
for 1 am a Tailor.
17. But a certain righteous man cslletT
Alexander 11. Stephens, is in favor of
'•My Policy," acd he must be admitted
into Congress.
18. And furthermore, be it known un
to you, that I have a Son-in-law who was
Jeffie's Jndge, and he is now a Sen
ator from Tennessee.
19. And if he is hot admitted," the
mighty' Jailor will make tho earth to
quake, for his lord is the lord of the lash
aud he has broken up this nation once,
aud he can do it again.
20. Verily, I say unto you, when thou
prayest, pruy for "My Policy."
21. And if the ten oath be not repeal
ed, I will take another close fit.
22. Yo are begotten of My Policy,
and I had almost forgotten to meutiou
that, I was a Tailor.
CHAPIEIt V.
1. Now, when Moses, the Tailor, had
come dowu out of the temple, after tell
ing his "dead duck" story, the people
gathered around him,and a certain scribe
said unto him, "Master, I will follow thee
whithersoever thou gocst."
2. And he said unto him, I go back
into Egypt, follow me, and thou shalt
1-euiain Prime Minister, and heat the
goose for me.
3. And immediately tho Scribe called
a great concave, and as'tho dog-days wore
uear at hand they caved in a Wigwam
at the sea shore, and forged anew tho
chain to bind a race, and declared to the
world that four years of fiendish warfare
to destroy the big parchment had made
thom better than loyal men.
4. And, furthermore, said the great
Scribe, if those Bcbels fail to goveru this
sountry 'Mtb the sword, wo will help
them.
5. Ana if they cannot do it peaceably
they are unworthy the name of 'men it
they do not attempt it by force.
0. Now be it known to the friends of
this country, that there is a mighty crew,
all clad in gtay clothes that Jit nice, for
their captain is a tailor.
7. Aud this happy band of loyal tkax
toks want the Keystone for Ciymcr and
then they will climb the base of Hunker
hill aud carry Gettysburg to Boston.
8. And another one of his disciples
said unto him, suffer me first togo aud
bury my father for he was killed in the
wilderness of "My Policy."
9; But Moses said unto him : "Letthe
niggers bury the dead, follow My Poli
cy and we will have a good thing in '68."
10. Verily, 1 say unto you, the heav
ens and the earth shall pass away, but
My Policy MUST BE lWsident.
11. Behold! the axe is laid at the
root of the tree, aud every tree that sup
ports not my policy shall be hewn down
and cast into the tire, for I was a" tailor.
CHAPTER VI.
1. Now, the people made a Bureau,
that those who were loyal should not be
persecuted by traitors, but those who
had purchased their freedom with their
own blood, should enjoy it.
2. But Moses said unto theiu : We
are going back in'o Egypt, and we can
carry neither Cupboard nor Bureau,
nothing but my policy.
3. Rut the people said unto him, Mo
ses, thou art a dead duck, we received
this Bureau from our father Abraham,
and they placed it beside tho Taberna
cle of the Covenant, and Moses wept.
4. there were certain uieu called
11 publicans in tho land aud they nven
ted a bill of Civil Rights which said ■.
jmoii had just as good a right lo
swear to the truth as a perjured traitor.
5. But Moses lilted up his voice and
said, this cannot be done, it is not My
Policy. The nigger is an inferior being,
and 1 was a Tailor.
6. But two-thirds of the people said
uuto Moses, "Abraham wrote in tho big
parchment, that slavery should be no
more, and you arc a dead duek."
7. Moses became very wroth and open
ed his big mouth again, saying,
8. Men and brethren, we are going
back into Egypt, we are no men at
all if we suffer such oppression; My
Policy, mu*t prevail.
9. I will be your Moses. We will
pass the Red Sea ana occupy that fair
land which the dratted men have taken,
called Can-J die (Canada).
10. Therefore, you. will gather togeth
er your tabernacles, your slave pens, your
auction blocks, jour chains, your mana
cles and your humain chatties, and we
will take our old Statutes, our old Con
stitution and My Policy with us, and will
go where the Democracy went during the
war; even unto Can-J die.
11. Now brethren, b« of good cheer,
Breckenridge is there. Slidell and Ma
son are there. Davis shall go with us.—
Vallaudighaui shall go before for he
knows the road; we will take the bones
of Booth with us and Climcr shall go
with Mo6es aud leara tie Tailor busi
ness.
12. And when we shall have taken
possession of the territories of the New
Dispensation, 1 will divide the country
into twelve kingdoms according to the
twelve tribes of Traitors that have fought
under My Policy.
13. Vallaudigham shall have a king
dom and Clynier shall have a kingdom,
Alexander H. Stephens shall hu\e a
kingdom, Orr shall have a kingdom, aud
Seward shall have a kiugdotn, but Doo
little shall have no kingdom for he has
done but little.
14> Nevcithclfsa, every ojta ifcAtiiiJ
em a uigg r shall have a kingdom, and
every iuan that can BIIOW a commission
und«r Davis, or Lee, shall have au office,
for I am thy Moses that taketh theo out
of the land of Bureaus and Civil Rights
into the plagues of Egypt and the house
of bond'ige.
.CHAPTER VII.
1. Ni.'W there was a certain thing call-
I'tlt'lynier, aud he had beeu climbing for
many yean to get to be tall among trait
ors.
2. And Vallan ligham and Clymer
had a dispute as to which should be great
cat in the kiugdoui of Jeffie.
3. And Jeffie said tinto them, shame!
Why quarrel in such a large country !
4. Let Valhindigham go into the West
ami Clymer into the East, and I will
make you both ru ers.
5. An I the people .heard the ovil
words of Jeffie, and they threw Vallau
dighani one. hundred thousand miles into
uiter darkuess.
0. And Moses spoke unto Vallandig
liani in a sorrowful tone, saying, "lie
main in the wilderness until October, for
1 am coming."
7. And when thou shalt hear the voice
of a mighty tailor in the wilderness, cry
ing, "dead duck," then thou shalt know
that we jouruey for another country and
thou shalt go before.
8. And it eamc to pass in thope days
there was a great rebellion, and Clymer
and YalLndighum strove to see which
could do the most lor the dirty rag with
one star.
!). And Vallandigliam was a mighty
| man and he worked in the lead, and as
they pulled together Moses Struck Cly
mer, to make him pull the harder.
10. And it came to pass, that as he
pulled he tore his vlotm fit aud his naked
treason-cursed carcass became a great
stench in the land.
11. And waking up from their slum
bers and seeing they were naked, tlfey
said unto each other, let us do as Jeffie
did : put on pclly coats, and perhaps we
cuu hide.
12. Hut the people said unto Ciynier,
the feet of that hundred thousand that
carried Yallaudigham out, art at the door
and shall i-ooii carry thee out iuto a for
eign land where Moses can repair thy
close fit, for he is a Tailor.
CHAPTER VIII.
1. And it came to pnse as the childien
of Israel journeyed in the wilderness they
came into a great city called New Or
leans, a.id the Butternuts Btood at the
corners if the streets with arrows in their
hands, and Moses stood afar off aud
watched them murder his people.
2. And when the last one *as driven
out of the eity, Moses laughed like a
Tailor.
4. And spake unto tlic murilorcrs with
wings of lightuing, Haying, do it mure,
Aarou's roil shall comfort you.
4. Hut the people when they saw Mo
ses was bound for Egypt, called liiui
to judgment.
5. And in the curiosities of Uncle
Sam's house, there was a striped coat of
female attire.
G. Now this was I lie, same in which
Davis hid from the sight of Uncle Sam's
men.
7 Ami the people placed this garment
upon Mote.-, even as the lord had com
manded, and )hey found that it was an
exceedingly close fit.
8. In so much that Moses exclaimed,
my punishment is greater than I can
l.ear. Is it possible that I was born of
i he same mother, or begotten of the same
lather, for bt hold ! this garment doth fit
like a ''dead duck." ,
9. Now this is the gospel of the New
Dispensation, llcaiken unto the voice
of the lord of the lash, and may peace
lie with all who dwell in Canada. A lit
ile while and I will be with jou all.—
Amen - —For I am a Tailor.— Exchange.
A New and Grand Fpoch in Medicine!
DR. MAOUIEI. is the founder of a new
Medical System ! The quantitarians,
wh .so vast internal doses cufecble the
stomach and paralyze the bowels, must
give precedence to the man who restores
health and appetite, with from one to two
of his extraordinary Pills, and cures the
most virnleut sores with a box or so of his
wonderful and all healing Salve. These
two great specifics of the Doctor are fast
superseding all the stereotyped nostrums
of the day. hxtraoriiinary cures by
Mangiel's fills and Salve have opene I
the eyes of the public to the inefficiency
of the (so called) remedies of others, ami
upon which people have «o long blindly
depended. Maggiel's Fills are uot of the
cla*s that swallowed by the dozen, and
of which every box frtli taken creates an
absolute necessity for another. One or
two ' Muituicl's Pills suffices to place the
bowels in perfect order, tone the stomach,
cieates an appetite, an i render the spirits
light and buoyant ! There is no griping,
and uo reaction in the form of coustipa
tion. If the liver is affected, its func
tions are restored; and if the nervous
system is feeble, it is invigorated. This
last quality makes the tncdicincs very
desirable tor the wants of delicate fe
males. Ulcerous and eruptive disoa.-os
are literally extinguished by the discn*
feetant power of Maggiel s Salve. In
fact, it is here announced that MAOGIEL'S
BILIOUS, DYSPEPTIC AND DIARRUEA
PILLS cure where all others fail. While
for Burns, Scalds, Chilblains, Cuts and
all abrasions of the skin, MAQQIEL'S,
SALVE is infulliable. Sold by J. MAO

preparatory to the election. Let every

Tlic Cfluvims.
Since 18G0 there has been up.
rising of the people as at this time. In
Franklin, Erie, Pittsburgh, aud elsewhere,
wherever the people have been invited to
meet, for the purpose of consultation or
demonstration, they have poured out with
a will. This is an overwhelming evidence
that they realize the enormity of the
treachery purposed by the Executive and
his advisers, agaiust the party that clc
vated them to power, and their deterniiu
ation to foil, forever, the designs of trait
ors both North and South.
Connecticut, Vermont and Maine have
all been carried against the influence of
the Executive. The last election—
Maine—being the most overwhelming be
cause his treachery was'the more mani
fest.
Tho*e who, but a tow weeks ago seem
e I to rejoice at this treachery, and at the
anticipated beticGts they were to receive
from it, now look quite chopfallen. Let
our people make a final rally for the
right, and Pennsylvania will even beat
Maine in the overwhelming character ol
her verdict at the next election. In this
county we can carry our whole ticket by
an average majority of five hundred
We hope our friends in the difLreut dis
tricts will at once make the necessary ef
fort to bring out their whole vote. Let
us-tiling Butler couuty back to her old
fashioued majorities.
Jteif The Richmond Whig seems to take
an intelligent view of the political situa
tion in the North. In a recent number
of that paper we find the following:
"It is nit to be expected that a great
party that has been built up and consoli
dated by almost superhuman efforts —that
ha* lor its leaders and supporter* the
leading intellect of the North—its schol
arship, its most learned and influential
ministers of the g ispel—all the Govern
ment und other lcadiug State officials, and
that was powerful enough to dissolre the
President'* Cabinet—can be put down
without a great effort."
t&r Our friends who hava been at
tending the series of meetings arranged
throughout the county, report large en
thusiastic meetings everywhere. The
people are fully awake to the dangers of
the hour and their ability- to avert it, and
they are de'erminod to do the work of
patriot* and to do it well-
JtiT'Captain Z e le is the Ch irmiD
of the Democratic Executive Couiniitsee.
j t he seenH to have doserted hi* post.
Where is he ? 'ln 'G3 ho canvassed the
county in the interest of Woodward, and
frequently took occasion to tell the pub
lie 'hat the election of Curtin would bo
the "ignsl for anarchy and despotism !
That his elcctiou secured the overthrow
of our democratic form of government !
He took the name high ground iu 'O4, in
reference to the election of Lincoln - al
leging that his election would be the last
Presidential eleoiion ever held in this
country. Perhaps the Captain thinks
that the people might a>k him for ex
planations and modifieati ins of his proph
ecy ! At any rate the people would like
to see thc*Captain on the stuuip.
By the by, R seems rather cowardly to
see the Democracy dscline an open can
vass iu our county. The President has
laid aside both consistency and dignity
for the purpose of braving Northern sen
timent, and pleading the cause of the
Southern Rebels, who again wish to rule
the nation with the help of t'aeir North
ern friends. Are our Copperhead neigh
bor* not willing to risk tlionisedtcs in the
issue with him ? Come, gentlemen ! the
people are very anxious to hear your plea
in behalf of treason and against loyalty.

Our readers are aware of the politic il
■character of the New York Herald. It
is one of the most active Conservative
journals in the country, yet it never wish
es to sink with its party, wheu disaster is
stariug it iu the face. It dona good ser
vice fot McClellan in 'Ol, but when the
populur curreui set in so strong nga.ust
hiui as to leave no doubt as to his over,
'vheluiiug defeat, the Herald frau kly ac
knowledged the situation aud accep'e 1 it.
Its confessions tire therefore looked for
with interest, iu its issue of last Wedncs
day wo find a long article of which the
folio wing is an extract:

that this remarkable election turned more
upon the exciting political events of the
day, North and South, than upon the ex
act political issues presented between the
Southern restoration policy of President
Johnson and the reconstruction policy'of
Congress. Extraordinary results arc gen
craliy due to extraordinary causes. Had
the Republicans simply had something
like their standing majority iu Maine,
the result could have been explained by
the simple statement that the battle was

perhaps ANOTHER REOROANIZA

After such frank acknowledgements of
awaiting defeat, from sueli a high source,
it is little wonder that the Johnson men
iook blue.
Skif Rut a short tunc since the South
ern Press took occasion to let us know that
uuless the election this fall was very de
cisive, they would nit consider the mat
ter settled against them. The following
from the Richmond Times, would seem
to indicate a disposition to acknowledge
IIIH situation. It says:
While no one anticipated the defeat
of the Radicals in any of the New Eng
land States, wo have been startlel by
their enormous gains in States where it
wasanticipated that they would elect their
candidates for Congress by decreased ma
jorities. Far from gaining a Congress
man in Maine, the only district which
was reported as doubtful, has returned a
Radical Congressman by nearly 4,000 ma
jority."
SS7~Froa) the following it will be seen
that the Democracy are heartily sick of
their new Moses. In Maine the Demo
cratic papers openly denounce the Pros,
ident as the cause of their defeat. The
Portland Adcertiier is especially vindic
ti.e :
"We say unhesitatingly, for it is God's
truth, that the timidity and feebleness ot
the Executive power in this Stare over
the sources and springs of popular influ
ence have alone caused the mortifying
results in Maine, and the sooner it is
known to the President, that he may
spare other friends in other States a like
fate, the better."'
And so it will be everywhere. The
President is the heaviest load the demo
crats ever undertook to carry. He will
