HIRAM GREEN TO KONIG WILHELM
He Reviews the Career of a Lunatic. -- A Graduate with Nice Ideas. KING WILYAM, Most noble Loonatic: _We gates all der while!_ Accordin' to the Marine Cable, I understand you've given old BONEY a _slosh on der cope mit der Sweitzer case;_ or in good plain United States talk, LEWIS NAPOLEON has taken his Umpire, and shoved it up the spout, without the benefit of Judge or Jewry. I kinder had an idee that when the now busted up rooler of the Umpire tackled you, that it would have been a ten dollar greenback in his panterloons pocket if he had let the contract out on shares to his nabors. I've allers heard say that as able-bodied a Loonatic as the French say you be, could handle any 3 ordinary men, "Be be Jost or Gobler damed," to cote from our friend BILLY SHAKESPEER. We have had evidences here, of the superiority of Loonatics, mor'en once. If a man can prove that his upper story is crackt, he can wallop his wife to his heart's content; and if anybody interferes, he can popp him off with a six shooter, and the law will stand to his back. Judges and Jewrys, when tryin' such a man, think he is sum punkins, while all the illustrated papers stick the celebrated Loonatic's fotograf onto their first page. |
