 To send " Clear Grits" to Davy Jones

 HURRAH FOR BUCHANAN I 
 
 If a list for Hugh C. Baker, that would cover 
 half an acre, 
 Were filled with real voters— as they say I 
 Never mind, my jolly souls ; when we meet 
 them at the polls. 
 
 They'll find Buchanan will be sure to win 
 the day. 
 
 Let them hoist what rag they choose, mixed 
 with Oray$ and Bromu, and blues. 
 
 To bamboozle men too sterling to suspect 
 them ; 
 We'll run up the " Union Jack,"— that will show 
 them in a crack. 
 
 We have men that see the dodge, and will 
 detect them. 
 
 Tho' the day of nomination, should have been 
 the termination 
 Of a struggle, that's a juggle, as they know ; 
 Tet, as the disappointed batch, persist in coming 
 to the scratch, 
 
 We'll give them rope enough, and then — 
 let them go. 
 
 Then Hurrah for L Buchanan, tho' he's not from 
 Ballyshannon, 
 
 Or where else bis Irish friends so much 
 admire ; 
 If " Scotch to the backbone," he's Canadian, too, 
 they own, — 
 
 And what can Hamilton in reason more 
 desire \ 
 
 The Qreat Western in its might, may put forth 
 all its spite 
 
 ^faiiMl the housa that built it, where it 
 stands ; 
 But tho' battreia'd up with alanlar, with e>Ty, 
 and with dander. 
 It will find itself defeated on all bands. 
 
 After tacking on our B'boys, the nickname of 
 "Sepoys," 
 And not a friend in England to defend themi 
 How dara they stand up here, and in elections 
 interfere, 
 
 Without azpeeting retribution to attend 
 them I 
 
 If Britain never minces, to vaunt her Barohant 
 
 princes, — 
 
 •-iiWhy is Canada to be without her boast ; 
 That she has one within her realm, that is fit to 
 
 take the helm. 
 And be the first of merchant princes in her 
 
 host. 
 
 Then Hurrah for I. Buchanan, though bo's not 
 from Ballyshannon, — 
 
 Or where else his Irish friends so much 
 admire ; 
 If " Scotch to the backbone," he's Canadian, too, 
 they owii, — 
 
 And what can Hamilton in reason more 
 desire ( 
 
 COLLOQUY 
 
 BETWEEN A DZSCENDANT Or THE VAR FAMED WIZARD 
 WHO WARNED LOCHOtL, AND O. C. B. 
 
 Hnch O I Hush O t beware of the day, 
 Whaa Iioao ahall meet thee in battle array. 
 For a field of drunk voters is bared to my sight. 
 And the friends of the "Dodger" are beat in tbe 
 fight 
 
 DVOH C, 
 
 Avaunt I thou foul fiend — disturb not my dream. 
 In a vision bright honors before me did gleam ; 
 And Bucha aan, despairing, had left me the field. 
 And my foe^ in great terror the contest did yield. 
 
 Hugh C I Hugh C I it was but a vision, 
 
 For the vaunts of the Dodger we treat with 
 
 derision ; 
 Brave Isaac triumphant shall carry the day, 
 In spite of the CodiSsh and Alderman O — y. 
 
 O Wizard 1 O Wizard I you're sadly mistaken, 
 C. J. B — e assures me the contest 1 11 gain ; 
 Buchanan's supporters we easily can quash. 
 By a plentiful bribe of the O. W. Cash. 
 
 Hugh C ! Hugh CI in spite of your money. 
 When it comes to the poll, you'd feel rather 
 
 funny ; 
 And the O. W. R. with all of iU gold 
 Will find itself this time most deucedly sold. 
 
 Begone ! eoothless tormentor, my hopes you 
 
 have crushed, 
 And the Government horors that through my 
 
 brains rushed. 
 Have vanished, and left me to grief and remorse, 
 I retire, and leave Isaac to walk over the course. 
 
 WIZAID. 
 
 Hush 1 Hugh 1 your resolve I admire. 
 And r^oice from the field you've seen fit to 
 
 retire ; 
 Now take this advice like an honest John Bull, 
 Ne'er again make yourself a Great Western tool. 
 
 BUCHANAN AND THE SOUTHERN. 
 
 Hauiltoit, 14th Dap., 1867. 
 To the Editor of the Hamilton Chwivari, 
 
 Brothbr SKPort, 
 I calculate Mr. Bnohanan, our top 
 sawjrer, baa touched Mr. Brydgea and 
 Mr. Baker, the lower sawyer, on the raw, 
 in hia circular to the non-resident voters 
 of our city. That he is a brick, not baked 
 yet by Baker, is I guess a fixed fact. I 
 hope he will be fixed in the House, where 
 he will, I expect, demolish Grit and dear 
 Grit slanderers — As I am given to under- 
 stand, you intend publishing a sort of 
 Punchiana, in order that all Canada and 
 Great Britain may perceive the fixings 
 they want to saddle our intended member 
 with, do me the favor, Brother Sepoys, to 
 insert the following paragraph — Repetition 
 is no evil, for as a learned French Philo- 
 sopher, aptly said — " It is only by repeat- 
 ing that we can learn." 
 
 "Mr. Brydges will, by and bye, find 
 
 the belief that the Southern Railway can- 
 not be built independently of them ; and 
 the President in London, Mr. Robert Gill, 
 who told the Shareholders that the South- 
 ern Railway was a monster Bubble, will 
 require to acknowledge that he has been 
 the instrument of deceiving them. For 
 the moment, however, what I have to do 
 with, is, the monster requitilion to me, to 
 allow my name to be used as a candidate 
 for the City of Hamilton, which, of itself 
 is sufiicient proof that all parties on the 
 spot here know that I am right, and Mr. 
 Brydges and his supporters wrong, as to 
 the true interests of the shareholders of 
 the Great Western Railway." 
 
 One word more — " Hurrah, for Hamil- 
 ton and Buchanan ! Hurrah for Truth, 
 the best policy of Honesty, and accept 
 Brother Sepoys, 
 
 the best wishes of an 
 
 laAAOBKTJXK BUOHANANSKTJKS. 
 
 Hk does'nt 
 what he will 
 
 Know. — Mr.

 he 
 
 Baker knows 
 will oppose 
 
 Buchanan, he will oppose the Southern 
 Railway, he will oppose the Ministry ; he 
 will oppose anything and everything if 
 you will only elect him — but do not ask 
 him what he will support, for gentlemen, 
 he doesn't know.

 THE HAMILTON CHARIVARF. 
 
 AN ODE TO THE SPEAKERS. 
 
 What fury, wkat sorrow, what heartfalt diitreu, 
 Baker feels at our popular memberB' suooeu ; 
 With malice and fury, in Brydses henrt flare, 
 White Brown, is done brown, wu«n ha thought 
 he would scale. 
 
 Oh, yos, we confess 
 The Loafers have not a slight chance of success I 
 
 There's Lioao, whose talents win fortune and 
 
 fame, 
 Who stands on his legs & he oovors with shame. 
 The Loafers who would, if they could, pull him 
 
 down 
 And drag our Buchanan, all over the town 
 
 In mud. We confess 
 He's one of the boy's that will fix, his success I 
 
 Then there's Ryau, the doctor, not Billingsgate 
 
 like. 
 And the LTNo'sJolly brothers, all ready to strike 
 With Rai and UcKinstrt, all fit for n lark 
 While Spencer and Barnes won't be kept in the 
 dark. 
 
 These bricks we confess 
 Are boys, who'll make sure of Buchanan's suc- 
 cess! 
 
 Then there's Ouuming's, the coming man, for 
 aught we know, 
 
 £x-^ayor, of Hamilton, and wbo will show 
 
 Master Brydges and Baker and such railway 
 snakes, 
 
 That the best we can do, is to^j; them on stakes, 
 Yes, these, we confess. 
 
 Are the lads, to secure, friend Buchanan's suc- 
 cess I 
 
 And then there's a name, that rhymes with Rob 
 
 Roy, 
 God a mercy, my lads, it is Bob Mao Elrot — 
 It does one's heart good, manj to hear the boy 
 
 spout 
 And cover with shame those he'd put to the rout 
 
 Eh, man, we confess 
 Bob is one of the lads to secure B's success ! 
 
 Then there is, do not start, one Jounnt K Staxt, 
 Who deserves at the end of his name to see 
 
 Bart. ; 
 For he speaks like a Roman, so pithy and clear, 
 And when he has done, we all cry out, " hear I 
 
 hear 11" 
 
 By Jove, we confess 
 He is one who has itarted, the cry of success I 
 
 For eloquent Atkinson, who speaks from his 
 
 heart. 
 And who feels that he's playing a right honest 
 
 part; 
 We will say that his words are free from alloy, 
 And although he is black, he's a pure ahtte 
 
 Stpoy. 
 
 Thorray, we confess 
 Brother Atkinson wishes Buchanan success I 
 
 One word for the son of the Emerald isle, 
 The gem of the sea, where all the girls smile, 
 'Tis Dev.\ny we mean, who speaks like a host 
 Who'll scare all the Baker's, with Brydges' 
 ghost 
 
 Ooh hone — we confess 
 By the powers, he's sure, of Buchanan's suc- 
 cess I 
 
 And another, Aoushla Machrse, we admire, 
 For tlie boy, when he spakes, is a bxtoy all on 
 
 fire! 
 Tkrbt Branioan, one, who will tell all the 
 
 town. 
 That, twtr: as he lives, he will put Baker down 
 
 With his dough — we oonfess 
 Terry's one of the boys for Buchanan's success ' 
 
 And NiLLioAN, lads, — not related to Nell 
 Who was Charley the seconds most beautiful 
 
 belle I 
 Is a man, in whose bosom, fair honesty beats 
 Who hates dirty Brydges, and Baker's what 
 cheats 
 
 Och hone — let us bless. 
 Such KntlVt as will toll against Baker's suc- 
 cess I 
 
 As for GiBBs — not the Oibbs, of London renown, 
 Who bartered his honor Ji Alderman's gown — 
 But Hamilton Oibds, a true man of taste 
 Whovotes for Buchanan, and Baker he'd baste. 
 
 Hurrah, we confess, 
 That OiBU* is a man to ensure B's success I 
 
 And one meed of praise for McDuwall, for all. 
 For KiNREAD and for Skinner, who keep up the 
 
 ball; 
 Upon all, upon each, let God's blessing descend, 
 Long after the Polling shall be at an end. 
 
 For all, we confess 
 Have added their mite to Buchanan's success t 
 
 Hurrah, for the Miller's, the Wuite's and 
 
 GOUKLAT, 
 
 For Burn's and for Price, who are men of the 
 
 day ; 
 For VcKenzie, for Cusaok, & Ireland, ooh hone, 
 The Stinson's, the Grant's, honest to the back 
 
 bone 
 
 Who'll shout — we confess 
 We're, for Hamilton, boys, & wish I. B. success I 
 
 Talk of Millers, my lads, don't forget all the 
 
 Mills, 
 Billt Kerr, I. M. Williams, whose coaches we 
 
 fills- 
 China Patton <k BfOELow — may they never feel 
 
 low, 
 But grow big, and drop pattens, while singing 
 ohow — chow, 
 
 All these — we confess. 
 By the dragon, they're sure of Buchanan's suc- 
 cess! 
 
 : We could spin a long yarn, about MaoIntosu's, 
 ! Carpenter's, and McCabis, cot thinking it both ; 
 And hand all these names, adding Oen'l Bkock, 
 And Lawson, whom Baker, shan't lead to the 
 block 
 
 Down to fame ! And confess 
 That these are the boys, whose secure B's. suc- 
 cess 1 
 
 And now we'll conclude this long list of bricks 
 
 Who are bound, all together, like so many 
 sticks ; 
 
 As there's nothing like worth — sterling worth 
 we would say 
 
 Hero's for Grear and for Sterling, and so ends 
 our lay. 
 
 Good Lads, we confess, 
 
 May God bless you all ; wish Buchanan suc- 
 cess I ! 
 
 LatMt intelligenoe from the Seat of War. 
 General Hioholwn. 
 
 We are given to understand that the casual 
 ties which occurred on the side of the Loafers, 
 at the battle of the Court House was, that one 
 General Nicholson had been dangerously woun 
 ded, and rifled by a rascally camp follower — 
 that he nearly lust his " lianner," and that the 
 monster Qunn had been left sticking in the 
 mud. 
 
 An Appeal to Hamilton. 
 
 Oh Hamilton lads, 
 
 And oini-bus cads. 
 Haste and set yourselves right with your Baker! 
 
 This is Biidgee cry. 
 
 But it is all my eye. 
 For this Baker's a sly money raker ! 
 
 If you want any tin. 
 
 To buy bread and gin, 
 Or to have a jollification, 
 
 It is twenty per cent. 
 
 At which it is lent, 
 This Baker loves multiplication I 
 
 For his motto my boys, 
 
 Is one I hat decoys. 
 His arms, three balls, shot from a Oomn, 
 
 And his motto is this, 
 
 He dont think it a-miss, 
 Ecce— "Do, but H C wont be done"! 
 
 MORE MISREPRESENTATION. 
 
 MR. BUCHANAN AND THE COLORED CITIZENS. 
 
 The following letter speaks fur itself : 
 To the Editor t f the SpstMUor. 
 
 My attention having l-e»n called to a letter 
 in the Sanntr of the Sth inst., over my signa- 
 ture, in which I am made to state that I was 
 discharged by Mr. Buchanan from his service, 
 on account of my color, I now desire you to 
 contradict this statement, being perfectly sat 
 isfied that the whole matter was wilfully mis- 
 represented to me by Mr. Jones, and that Mr, 
 Buchanan knew nothing whatever of the trans- 
 action. 
 
 Yours respectfully,

 The^, have ever been the glory ; strength and sinew of the land, 
 
 While in honesty of purpose, nobly daring to be free 
 
 With our strong right nrni we win us — the best gifts of Liberty, 
 
 Liberty of thouelit and action. Liberty of heart and brain. 
 
 These onve yielded, tell me Brother, wnst is worthy to retain. 
 
 Lost to manhood, lost to freedom, oroaching hounds and whining slaves. 
 
 Better that our name should ))crisli, better far, be in our graves. 
 
 Wherefore, did God give us reason ' heads to think and hearts to feel, 
 Suiely not that we hIiouKI oatil them 'neath the tyrant's iron heel,' 
 Wherefore, taught he this petition — " Give us this day our daily bread, 
 But that we might well consider, by whose hand we are cloth'd and fed ; 
 Out upon you God despiaers, ye have put your trust in men. 
 But when tribulation cuniFtli — will they know or help you then. 
 No I for this they do dc^ni^c yon, ye have stoop'd and ye must kneel 
 Till they place their mark u]ion you, with a brand of burning steel. 
 
 Oh ! my Brothers when I eaw you, stooping to be servile tools. 
 
 In your folly and your nindnesp, making God's of knaves or fools, 
 
 Who would bring disgrace upon you — yea, would slay your souls as well. 
 
 Drugging you with deep potations, from the liquid hres of bell ; 
 
 O how virtuous manhood suffer'd, in that Devil inspired eclipse. 
 
 Faith in man had well nigh perish'd, and these words burst from my lips, 
 
 " Back ye sycophants to Europe — back and raise that servile shout. 
 
 When with pMlsied limbs receiving, what the work-house doles you out." 
 
 Wives, and mother's to your bo8om, when ye clasp your little sons, 
 Feed them with the bread of freedom, Jfow their Father'tgiv* them ilontt ; 
 Teach them manly self-reliance — teach them faith in God, and then 
 Fail not in a Mother's mission — teach them to be almafit men, 
 Then whatever may sasail them, hearts in manhoods armour steel'd. 
 Struggling with the ocean tempest, storming o'er the battle field 
 They may sink beneath the billow, or they ull midst heaps of slain. 
 But the world wilt look with honour, to the Molher'i of such men. 
 
 Oh ! my Brother's in your folly, ye have sinn'd as Gsau.sinn'd 
 Ye have sold your heaven-born birthright, at the temptinga of a fiend ; 
 Say ye boldly to your master's, you may claim my time and skill. 
 But my God-given gift of reason is not your's, and never will. 
 Last to self-respect dishonour, loUow quickly, dark and foul. 
 Spurn the drunkard's cup 'tis given, to enslave your heart and soul ; 
 Stand once more erect and scorning, them who would bring shame on us, 
 Better far our name should perish, than perpetuated thus. 
 
 H. 0. Baker's Lament 
 
 Alas ! alM! for I'ln defflsted, ' 
 
 The people would not me elect ; 
 
 The Dodffer sadly hsa me cheated, 
 But I'll be even with him yet. 
 
 He (hinlcM that I will pay the whiskey, 
 That the crowd su frcvly drank, 
 
 The Bannerg Bills, and Squibs so nasty 
 He scattered round, but I'll not thank 
 
 Him for his dirty tricks and capers, 
 
 Nor yet a cent shall I fork out ! 
 Let C. J. Brydses pay the papers 
 
 The whii«key oills let Adam foot ! 
 
 For me tbo sad humiliation 
 
 Of sore defeat is quite enough. 
 With every " shaving operation," 
 
 Exposed in language plain and bluff, 
 
 For me no more I shall be tempted 
 From the dull duties of my desk, 
 
 They fooled me once, but I've repented 
 And long for quietness, peace and rest.

 Leggo's Last Story- 
 
 WHAT WILL VOU BKT 'tI8 A LIE ! 
 
 An old maid, who had not made herself, 
 but who long longed for a hubby, finally 
 got desperate, at not finding one. In her 
 distress she went into the garden, and fal- 
 ling on her knees at the foot of a tree, 
 devontedly crossed her hands, and gazing 
 on the clouds, exclaimed, with all the pas- 
 sion old maids are capable of possessing 
 at the age of sixty — 
 
 " Oh Jupitor Jovie.I am so in lubby ; 
 
 By Murcary send me.a handsome young hubby. 
 All of a sudden she heard a voice crying. Oh I 
 
 To-whit — to who-who-who-who who-o-o-o I" 
 
 A cold sweat ran down her face, and 
 watered the " forget me nots" at the foot 
 of the tree, who thankingly sent forth 
 most fragrant odours. This revived the 
 old maid, who filled with oxestary, shouted, 
 
 " Any one by Jor«, any one, a Baker, a Baker 
 if yon cnose, so loug as he be a hubby I"

 Hurrah, for th« straight, hard iron road I 
 
 For the fire-hurie iwift and utrung I 
 Horrah for the pond'roue ohariut-train 
 
 That fleetly speeds along t IdaU, 
 
 Through wood and wild — through hill and 
 
 Paet Ilainlet, hut, and hall. 
 The snorting fire-horse flys apnce, 
 
 With a swift adieu to all, 
 
 Trees, rocks, and streams seem darting past 
 
 Like shadows on the wind — 
 The earth itself is ruxliing on. 
 
 To recede, fast, behind ! 
 Away ! away bounds the mighty steed, 
 
 While wondering crowds admire. 
 And, breathless, uaza on the fearful force 
 
 Of iron moved by fire. 
 
 The horse — the horse of our graudsires days, 
 
 With bones and muscles strong — 
 And the camel tall aad the elephant, 
 
 Could drug huge loads along ; 
 But the t/on^iorse, from the hand of man. 
 
 Impelled liy mind and steam. 
 Whirls mountuiii chariots through the air 
 
 With the swirtneHB of a dream I 
 Speed on, strong horse t with thy tidings glad. 
 
 Through wood and wild, speed on — 
 Thou bear'st abroad in triumph now. 
 
 The conquest mind has won I — 
 The marvels, mysteries, magic, spells, 
 
 Of a darker, bygone day, 
 Before the /ai;< of the iron horse 
 
 Must quickly pass away — 
 
 And fleet and I'ar o'er the iron road 
 
 Strong thoughts shall soon be borne, 
 To burst the bondsman's irksome chain, 
 
 / id blast the tyrant's scorn ; 
 Tnt. .ligence, and power, and peace, 
 
 As the Maker, God, designed. 
 Like a rainbow wreath shall gird the earth. 
 
 As the heritage of mind.

 This illustrious orator purposes issuing 
 a volume of orations, to be published at 
 the Banner office, as soon as Tom Gray 
 and Bill Nicholson can sittlo tlio pending 
 question of disputed possession. Dick's 
 orations have been pronounced by experi- 
 enced Physicians to be tlio mo.si potent 
 Soporifics yet introduced, and mothers 
 will do well to procure a co|>y of the book, 
 as by reading a single hariingue they «an 
 still the noisitst brat in the family, and 
 make him as mum as a Balierite, after the 
 second day's polling ! 
 
 Enormoiu Lying of Mr. Baker's Friends. 
 
 'Twas slander fiUed lier mouth with lying words 
 Slander the loulest whelp of Sin. The man 
 In whom this Spirit entered w s undone — 
 His tongue was set on fire of Hell ; his heart 
 Was black as death; his legs were faint with hast 
 'Topropogate the lie his soul had framed , 
 His piUow was the peace of families 
 Destroyed, the sigh of innocence reproached, 
 Broken friendships.aud the strife of brotherhood. 
 Yet did he spare his sleep, and hear the dock 
 Number the midnight watches, on his bed 
 Devising mischief more ; and early rose, 
 And made most hellish meals of good men's 
 names'" 
 
 One would think that the above had been com- 
 posed expressly for the Hamilton election. "The 
 '• Banner" of the foe ought to have the following 
 words, printed in huge letters on its cotton folds, 
 •' The Flag that braves ten thousand lies 
 And feels not ill at easel" 
 
 Mr. Baker's Polittes. 
 
 Notwithstanding the full discussion of 
 the principles of the respective candidates, 
 it is yet a matter of doubt of what Mr. 
 Baker's politics are made up. We take 
 it, however, tnat he goes strictly on 
 principal, and that his interest in any 
 given question can always be calculated by 
 so much per cent.

THE HAMILTON CHARIVARI. 
 
 BAKER'S DEFEAT. 
 
 It fell on nomination day, 
 
 When the voteri muttered early, 
 That a rabble rout from the Ruilway ihopa 
 
 Game to bully the electors fairly. 
 
 They marched them alonff through the public «tre«t«, 
 
 With Uie Dodger for their leader, 
 Nor ktoppeil, but to liquor, till they oaine to the place 
 
 Where tbc people wore luwinblod together. 
 
 Now the people were true to liaao, ihuir chief. 
 
 And hated the trnitorouH Raker, 
 Who tried to Hell their donr-bought right* 
 
 To a haughty Railway Dictator. 
 
 And this rabble came, by Brydges' command, 
 
 The rights of the people to trample ; 
 But the (iiopio were Htroug, and asHurted their rights, 
 
 And of Bal(or they made an example. 
 
 They voteil him down with his Railway crew. 
 
 And they whipped him off the hustings ; 
 So his partizans cleared as fast as they could, 
 
 To the Rum Shop of R. C. BusooinDe. 
 
 This Brydges and Balcer were drawn by the crowd, 
 
 Who from men had lieen chan(][ed into donkeys ; 
 And the people Haw and looked on with disaust. 
 
 Crying, "There go the Railway flunkies P' 
 This Baker and Brydges they spouted thorn hoarse, 
 
 With slanders and lies on Buchanan, 
 And the whi9i<ey they poured down the rabble's throats, 
 
 For they thought, they could win them by gamnton. 
 
 But the people said nay, with a terrible shout. 
 When the day had arrived for the polling; 
 
 And Buchanan went in, and Hugh C. was left out. 
 With his friend, C. J. Brydges, condoling !

 Mr. BrydgoB ii^ favor of Mr. Bucha- 
 nan's plan» 
 
 Hee Spectator IJIJitorial, 1 Sep., ISfitl — written during Mr. B'l 
 ftbaence in England, with tlio object of securing the Soudiern Road 
 for the O, W. R. R., in which effort he wu joined by the unani- 
 moUR voice of the oitizena of Hamilton. 
 
 And Mr, Zimmerman denounces it, as merely a SCHEME 
 for the affrandisemenl of Hamilton I 
 
 • * * • But the opponents of the scheme are not 
 satisfied to await the result, and must needs keep up the 
 excitement, in order, if possible, to throw discredit on the 
 whole movement. In this they will be mistaken, however, 
 for public opinion is fast gaining ground in its favor, and to 
 this end the last letter of Mr. Brydges has contributed not 
 a little. The erroneous impression that the Managing Di- 
 rector was opposed to any scheme for the amalgamation of 
 the Southern line with the GreatWestern, has been removed 
 by the letter in question, and the only objection urged by 
 Mr. Brydges is against the mode in which the scheme has 
 been attempted to be carried out. He distinctly avows that 
 it would be to the interest of the Great Western Company 
 to make its double line along the Southern road, instead of 
 along their existing track, but favors the idea of forming a 
 junction with the Great Western at Chatham, instead of 
 continuing the road on to Amherstburg. This is an important 
 admission in favor of Mr. Buchanan's scheme, and the only 
 difference between the Managing Director and Mr. Bucha- 
 nan would appear to be as to the method the latter gentle- 
 man has adopted of obtaining the control of the Southern 
 Railway. This much admitted, the dispute rests solely 
 between Mr. Buchanan and the Zimmermanites, the latter 
 arguing strongly that the sole aim of the scheme is to ag- 
 grandize Hamilton at the expense of the rest of the West- 
 ern peninsula, jt^ Capital, Hamiltonians ! now tell us, 
 who is your friend and wno your foe ? Was Zimmerman's 
 opinion a good one, if so, Mr. Buchanan is the man for 
 Cfalway !

 horridly tempting piles on thit right hand

 take possession thereof, thereby proving 
 himself an able general, as he had all the 
 Bhicks on his side.
