TUESDAY, MORNING, Nov. 29.
THE NATIONAL HOG.
Jim Fisk, whom a writer in the West
minister Review , has so very cleverly re
viewed, and pronounced his miud "extraor
dinarily fertile in ideas and expedients—
while ins conversation was tilled with unu-
al imaacs and strange forms of speech,"
aaionu many other apt hits, never hit a
more happy and appropriate nail on the
head than lie did when he cropped the ears
of “our noble President — Ulyses the first,
and turned him loose on the world as "the
National Hug.'’
This characteristic not only befits him
ill his public and official acts, but it is still
more appropriately becoming in his private
and personal conduct and mannert.
If in the selfish greed of bribery, gold,
horses, houses and lands, he evinced a hog
ish trait, that trait was still lurther devel
oped in his uttjr lack of dignity of charac
ter his gross ignorance of the proprieties
of life, and bis indecent disregard of the
refined sens! ilities of the people, and the
respect of public opiuiou as to deliberately
and leisurely enter a church—the house ol
God—filled with worshipers, ou a Sabbath
morning, and walk down the entire leng'h
of the aisle with his bat on his head, and a
huge cigar in his mouth.
Such a creature, would be called a heath
en hog, and yet this fellow Grant was re
eently guilty of such a monstrous breech
of decency. At the Methodist Church in
Washington he habitually enters and tra
verses the lisle without removing his hat,
and hegishly puffing his cigar.
And Fisk was right when he called him
the National Hog.
