enjoy his "ruminations" very much,
but wheu ho yot mixed up with that
wouuui h foot it caused us some apprehension*,
but the Inst communication
somewhat reconciled us, ; 11 1 we
concluded that ' Undo Zeke" 1ms ft
good d'iHl of comiuou aud "horse"
sense, mid furthermore he is ft fairly
good judge of luiinnn nr.ture. Ho
(Uncle Zoke) will pardon us for a suggestion
us to his personal appearance
1:: his debut in your columns ho stated
tlmt when wo beheld the homliest
looking man wo ever saw, wo would
know that it was "Uncle Zeke." So
tlio other day a certain man, somewhat
a Htranger in theso parta, Haiti
that uitice hia attention had been
called to tliia certain ugly peraonage
connected with The Sentinel Journal,
that ho had taken every man ho haw
that he wan not acquainted with to
ho "Uncle 7,eke," for they were all
ugly, HO it caused him uneaainocH fur
nothing, thinkiug that now he w >u Id
have to pay thai Ion# past due sub
wcription. So if you would represent
yourself at) handsome very seldom
tb?t nun would blush and run his
hand in his pocket to see if lie had
the right c'muge.
