Mr. Emtor ; .
Sir : I am ant two tho illustrious
Petroleum Verdigris Nasby; butt though
-1 am his ant, I am proud too say that I
was never know never born a -Whig 1
It is absolutely sole-eheerin, two the hart
of a Dimmycrat two here tho many
touchin stork-3 I can tell of the daze of
hour ants-sisters. "When the blood of the
new-born nation which the Whigs called
a Federal Union was gushin' inn its in
fancy ; when the Whigs inflamed that
blood to fever-heat buy llevolution which
plunged tho striplin into war ; when
WasLington ut the head of tho Federal
army was IcaJIo' everything two victory,
nt! ants sisters proved to tho world that
there's was Dimniyeratie blood. The
Whigs stigmatized thcui as Tories then,
even as there descendants, the Black
Republicans, would now brand hour suns
as Copperheads. . ,
My brother, tho lamented father of
the illustrious Petroleum "Verdigris, was
never born a Whig. True, he was unfor
tunate in his marriage relation; havin' bin'
chosen buy a woman who always voted
him on the W big tickets; and who would
have voted him last November against the
Seemore and Blare ticket, strait on two
Blick Republican perdition, if he hadn't
inn - mercy too his family seen fit two
kick the bucket and .save us the disgrace.
Petroleum don't do his family justice,
lie : lay3 awl his Dimmocracy two his
dread of nigger equality, women's writes,
taxation, and the like. lie needn't. Diin
mocracj's inn his blood. It was badly
adulterated buy his unfortunate relation
to ann Abolition mother, but Dimmycrat
ic invigorator is a ruitey ant-I-dote two
such adulterations ; and, though we never
could (owin to that unfortunate relation)
quite obliterate his natural propensity for
scein' and. talkin' of things so that people
can see 'em as they air, Ave as a family
have long bin content two leave his Dim
mocracy in the care of Baseoni and his
whisky.
I no, Mr. Editor, yew wood have shed
tears by the quart over my unhappy state
of mind if yew had had the pleasure of
my distinguished acquaintance during
the dark and bloody daze of the late
dark and bloody Abolition crusade.
I awlweighs teas literary ; aicliceighs.
I have never believed women h.-.d politi
cal writes any more than niggers ; and
hear-too-four, when awl tho mite of my
giant intellect has been stirred buy Dim
niyeratie troubles ; (and nun but the
faithful can no the depth of them) when
defeat coiled itself around hour trailing
banners; when Joe Lane hid himself;
when Valiandigham ran away two Cana
da ; (knot C&iada which is inn the Forks
of Santiam, butt 'tother place. This
one's named for 'tother because its bin a
rendezvous for Dimmycratic refugees),
when Lee surrendered and Jefferson
Davis, our idle-cysed and hcw-rnaii
Precedent, was surprised inn the pleasant
occupation of tryin' on his wife's female
riggin; when Abolition ghouls surround
ed and made him prisoner of war ; even
under awl these try-alls, I held my piece
and kept the allotcd place of a woman;
that is two say, I supported my family,
raised my own and my husband's toc-back-owe,
and knit socks two sell for hour
whisky, while Jedcdiah Spooks (that's
my husband) voted Dimmycratic strait.
But the late disastrous defeat has rowed
vie, sir I I shan't keep still if I am a
woman ! Black Republicans, bec-wcar !
A Dimmycratic' woman is aroused this
time, and yew 6hall tremble ! I'll tell
the truth, even as I understand it, feelin'
that its a sin to longer hyde the brilliancy
of my class-sick intellect behind the big
and burly shad-owe of my drunk old man!
This effort has exhausted ec ! I
meant two tell yew in this letter sum

father in that place, who has got "a good
thing" in the way of silver mines at
Treasure Hill, Nevada. The letter bears
date December 21st, 1SG3: j
'The good mines here arc he'd all the
way from 83,000 to 875,000. Mr. Or is
a watchman on the Ebcrhardt, and gets
820 per day. I visited the mine last
night. It is an immense mass of silver
ore, as massive as the copper ore in the
Union claim (Copperopolis) was, and did
the proprietors desire they could imme
diately take out as much silver ore as the
former has copper ore, tliat will assay
S1,000 per ton. There must inevitably
be a bijf rush here from all parts of the
United States, as the mines are proving
richer every day. The Central Pacific
Railroad in a mouth will be within ninety
miles of this locality. The snow has
nearly disappeared, aud the weather is"
clear and cool." Accompanying the let
ter were too silver bars one weighing
4.S0 ounces, valued at S5.301,- and the
other 18 ounce?, of .855 fineness, and
worth S19.80, the latter taken from ten
pounds of rock, both the product I of
mines at White Pine possessed by the
writer, who is in a fair way to become a
millionaire. !
A Little Advice. When the col
ored members of the Georgia Legislature
were kicked out, one of them made a
farewell speech. Here is an extract: i
The gentleman had a good deal to say
about social equality nixing up of the
races, amalgamation, I believe he called
it. Now, sir, we colored men don't want
to mix up'with tho white men; we all
like our own color best, and if these men
that talk so much about the inferiority
of the race, and of mixing up with the
"nigger," will let our colored women
alone, we won't have so many ring
strcaked and speckled people among,
us. We want tho white men to mind
their own business, and not come sneak
ing around our women at night, or any
other time, for unlawful purposes. Now,
Mr. Speaker, wc arc a law-abiding people,
and if I ain't here according to Jaw I
want to know it right away, so a3 to go
home and go to work. I thank the
House for hearing me. I haven't any
thing more to say.
