Come On, MacDuff.

" The presence of David B. Hill at the head of the Democratic movements in New York makes it certain that this is going to bean active campaign. In spite of Cuckoos and Brookin Dabshicks and many other sorts of croakers and squawkers, there will be the grimmest kind of a shindy, a piping hot mellay. Maine and Vermont and the rest of the names on the beadroll of calamity, don’t count here. The Democrats of New York are in for fun and a fight, regardless of Mugwumps, cowards, traitors, fools, and, if need be, the adirfinistration. Keep back your obituary poetry for the present. The New York Democrats are not going to be licked without one of the finest fights to a finish that have been seen since Tubal Cain went in for free iron; and even if they should be licked, as a memorial of the triumphs of the Administration, they will live to fight again. The brood of political cutthroats that is trying to stab the New York Democracy is making a fruitless effort. * “The grave’s not dug where traitor hands shall lay, In haste and hate, that murdered corse away.”
