"Bother evening as I was a-reading over the Globe it occured to me that, in the absence of good Sir Oliver, (with the accent on the Sir) that pa- per was trying to run something nice at us like Sir Oliver used to on the eve of an election, and there I see a column of balderdash under the head- ing, ‘ The Diffusion of religion.” This forcrbly reminded me of the three Niggers caught in a thunder storm, who decided that something religious had got to be done ‘ mighty quick,” and as none of them could either preach, pray or sing, they de- cided to take up a collection. Guess the Globe Writer had better call on the numerous (flicial appointees of Mr. Hardy for the “collection,” and never mind leaving "his fort” to talk ,religion at this juncture.
