48. XLVIII.
DECLARES FOR REPUDIATION AND UNION WITH
THE SOUTH.
Church uv the Noo Dispensashun, }
July the 10th, 1864.
I hev made up my mind that the Southrin Confedrisy is a
success, and that my fondest hopes is about bein realizd. Troo,
the next blast that sweeps from the South may bring to our
ears the news uv Lee's defeat, but at present writin things is
favorable. Wat follers?
Its plane that the Dimokrasy kin never live in peace with
Noo England. We cood endoor it wen we hed the Suthrin
States to balence em at the poles, for whenever wun uv em
startid a noosepaper, or went a lecturin out West to spread Noo
England ijees, we suspendid the liberty uv the press and uv
speech, by hangin the lecturer and smashin the press, wich
is Dimokrasy.
The North-west must cut off from the East, with a view uv
jinin the Confedrisy. Uv course, that nashen woodent take us
with a debt on our shoulders, for they wood hev to repoodiate
it; and they are a gentlemanly style uv people, who won't do
a dirty thing ef they kin git sumbody else to do it for em, wich
they hev never failed to do, sence they bought us Dimekrats
up. Hence, they would require repoodiashen, wich we wood
do gladly and willinly, for these reasons, to-wit:—
1. It woodent tech many uv the faitheful, ez them holdin
greenbax and guverment bonds are almost excloosivly Ablishnists.
Therefore, it wood be a punishin uv our enemies.
2. Ez a rool, the Ablishnists wood leave the country in disgust,
wich is benefishl in two ways: givin the Dimokrasy a
clean sweep, and enablin evry indivijjle uv em to git wun uv
their farms — the only way we'll ever git em.
Then we'd hev slavery in the North-west. Eckstatic thot!
My heart dilates at the bare ijee! I, Nasby, who hez bin refoozd
credit for likker — whose throat hez bin parcht becoz
the dime wuz not — who hez bin obleeged to obtain his licker
to sustane eggistense by stratejy — Nasby, P. V., will hev a
plantashen and — Niggers! Won't I demonstrate the sooperiority
uv the Anglo-Sacksun over the Afrikin, by wallopin em!
Perhaps not! Won't I hev niggers for carpenters, and blacksmiths,
and bricklayers, and sich? Won't we clean out the
poor people, and establish a genooine aristocrisy — ownin labor
instid uv hirin it? Won't we, the sooperior class, dodge the
cuss uv labor — fillin our quota uv sed cuss by puttin in nigger
substitoots? Won't I spend my days a suckin cocktales
and my nites at poker, sellin a family every now and then to
keep up finances? That's happinis condenst — that's my ijee
uv a terresterial paradise.
Hasten thy work, O Lee! Make thyself strong, O Boregard!
Be wise and bold, O Johnson! Go forrerd in yer nigger-killin,
O Forist! and O, Davis! (Jefferson) may yoo manage the helm
ez well ez they execoot yer commands! These is my prayer!
For wun victry for Lee, and a short crop, addid to the taxis,
and the drafts, and sich, will turn enuff week Ablishnists into
peece men to bust Linkin, and elect a peace man. Then will I
assoom the speer in wich I am fittid to move.

Paster uv sed Church, in charge.
