Weary 11v life and heart-sick, I startid a grosery in the 6th ward, noo York,-where I hed hopes that the Dimocriey wood rally to my support, and give me a suffi shency uv the two prime necessities uv life, - a roof and whis key. But that didn't anser. I drank up twenty-five per cent. Uv my stock, and the balance wuz sold on credit to that class uvdimoorats whose proudest boast is that they never pay a bill. He needs to be an aco'ot man who deals with sich. Unable to maintain myself there, I returned to Confedrit X Roads, where I am now livin, and where, probably, I shel'die. It! Is the most sootable place for me, for here I am entirely safe. Massyohoosets ideas can't penetrate us here. The aristocracy uv this 'seckshun bleeve in freedom 11v speech, but they desire to exercise a supervision over it, that they may not be led astray. They bleeve they'r rite, and for fear they'd be forced to change their minds, whenever they git into argument with anybody, ef the individooal gits the better uv them, they to-wunst shoot him ez a disturber.
