I drew encouragement from his remarks. The deep vane uv pious thankfulness wich run through his discourse was nateral to him. He is a trooly pious man, and wuz just back frum the meetin uv the Synod uv one uv the Southern churches, wich still persists in quotin Onesimus and Hayger. I feel encouraged. O, Dimmycrats uv the North, let us "Our vigger renoo, And our journey pursoo," and I feel shoor that success will at last crown our efforts. PETROLEUM V. NASBY, Lait Paster uv the Church uv the Noo Dispensashun. VII. A Vision.--Celebration of the Anniversary of the Taking of New Orleans.--In the Vision the Spirit of Andrew Jackson appears, and discourses of Various Things. CONFEDRIT x ROADS (wich is in the Stait uv Kentucky), January 12, 1866. We had sort uv a celebrashun uv the 8th day uv Janooary at the Corners last nite. My meetin house wuz gorgeously decorated for the occashun; the walls bein hung with confedrit battle flags, and on the corners of the pulpit wuz placed two skulls uv Yankees, picked up at Andersonville by one of the guards, who is now a loyal citizen uv this State, residin at this pint. These skulls wuz illuminated by placin a taller candle inside uv each uv em. The effect wuz inspirin. The guard who contributed em, is, I need not say, a conservative Democrat, and in the matter uv swearing at Ablishnists he displays more talent, and hez a more comprehensive range uv oaths, than any man I ever knowed. The church wuz also decorated with mottoes, furnished by myself and others, uv wich the followin is some uv em:-- "The Yoonyun ez it wuz--under Bookanan." "The noble dead uv Kentucky--them ez fell pintin their guns north we'll alluz remember." "Our returned soljers--beaten, but not conkered." "Niggers and northern Dimocrisey--we've lost the first; thank God, the latter is ours forever." I hevn't time nor space to give, in full, the perceedins uv the evenin. Suffice it to say, at 12, precisely, the company broke up, and sich uv em ez were able, departed. I remained. There wuz suthin in the refreshments wich indoost me to stay; in fact, I coodn't conveniently get out from under the table, where I hed fallen. While peacefully sleepin the sleep uv innosence, my unfettered sole went orf on a explorin expedishen into the land uv dreams, and I dreamed.
