EY THE KING OF BAVARIA.

"The King of Bavaria, who has not yet lost his taste for writ-
ing poetry, h, caused an ode or elegy, entitled Europe in th e
Ninteenth Century,' to be inserted in the Almanack for 183'.
From the tenor of this production, his Majesty appears to be no
longer animated by the liberal sentiments which he evinced in
his former compositions. He laments the opening of Pandora's
box. The people, given up to delusion, are led towards destruc-
tion. Everywhere appears a confusion of language, as of old, at
the construction of Babel."—The Sun of Tuesday.

Good bye to humanity ! Monarchs, good night !
'Tis your season of gloom and despair,
There's Nick in a fever, and Mig in a fright,
And Ferdinand gone—God knows where!

Rebellion through Europe is dancing quadrilles
To the tune of " The Devil to Pay ;"
And the shock she gives one king another king feels,
For we're all in the family way.

Not a night of our lives but off horrors we sup, *
Not a day but some treason unravels,
And scarce have we time a few shirts to pack up,
Ere we are packed off on our travels.

In France the mere phrase " a legitimate throne"
Is a theme for republican laughter,
In England, too, ➢fonarchy's going, or gone,
And Nobility's following after. t
The Pole's tearing discipline up by the roots,
Don Carlos is banished Irons Spain ;
The Turk has turned Christian, wears breeches and boots,
And gets tipsy with Russian champaigne.

The Protestant faith is at discount, yet oh !
Not a Protestant's likely to miss it ;
The magic has fled from the Pope's holy toe,
For the devil a Papist will kiss it.

Once 'twas said that whate'er is, is sure to be right,]
But now it's as sure to be wrong,
For Mind, the dissenter, has found the " new light,"
And Freedom, the gossip, a tongue.

Alas for the days when, as firm as a rock,
Each king could do just as he willed,
And had only to say to his passive farm stock,
" Dilly, dilly ducks, come and be killed."

When the dungeon, the axe, and the scaffold were his doom,
Who dared but to think for himself;
When the worship of thrones was the essence of wisdom,
And virtue, the payment of pelf.
Alas for those days ! They are all on the wing,
Worth's—honour's fine bubbles have burst,
And Infidel Europe is crowning as king,
His Highness, king Satan the First.

Then, monarchs of Europe, whatever you do,
Hang together, be sure you don't rat ;
Vain prayer, for, methinks, all the Liberal crew
Reply sneeringly, " Ditto to that!"

• I have supped full of horrors."—Macbeth.
t His Majesty is here mistaken.
" Whatever is, is right."—Pope's Essay 04 Mass.

COURSING EXTRAORDINARY.—On Sun-
day last, as one of the mail-coaches was proceeding on the
road from Bridport to Exeter, a fine hare, pursued by a
(fig, ran towards it; and o❑ the guard sounding his horn
the hare and dog went over the hedge, and turning took
the same direction with the coach, for more than a mile,
which they headed for half a mile, to the great amusement
of coachee, the guard, and the passengers. At a turning
in the road the parties in the coach lost sight of the sport,
but speedily came up with the hare and the dog, which
were both so completely exhausted that they were lying
side by side in the road, the dog being unable, from ex
treme prostration of strength, to seize his prey. The
coachman embraced the opportunity, and pulled up, when
he descen4ed from his vehicle, and took possession of poor
puss alive.—Salisbury Journal.

SOUR GRAPES.—An American Editor gives
the following delicate hint to a friend ;—'• Some very de-
licious grapes were presented, as we learn, to the members
of the Court of Errors, on Wednesday, born N. Prime,
Esq., end were gratefully receaved. We might have atte-
nuated and enlivened the foregoing paragraph, had a por-
ton of the delicious fruit found its way to us. Ours were
sour,'—that is, we feel sour, because we did not get any."
William Gall, wright in Arbroath, has con-
structed a pair of self-acting fanners, which, without the
aid of man, sift wheat, corn, &c. The simplicity of the
invention is astonishing. By a funnel of sheet iron the
whep.t descends upon an iron wheel full of brackets ; the
wheel is so nicely balanced that the moment the wheat
falls the wheel revolves and throws the wheat into a pair
of fanners on the fiat below. 03 the outside of the iron
wheel is a wooden one, and over it is a belt attached to
the fly-wheel of the fanners, which impels them, and so
long as a particle of wheat is kit the machine moves and
throws it out.

YANKEE SENATORIAL ELOQUENCE.—A
Neiv York Paper says, " In a late number of t e Lonis•
vile Journal the following is given as a spec;men 01 elec-
tioneerin, eloquence. It is an extract from a sturup speech
made by Colonel Boone, since elected to Congress:—
" Fellerscitizms,-111y enemies have slandered me in
almost every way they can invent! They say that I can
spile a quart of whisky r- very day ; that the old Gi-eral is
goin to give me an appointment to the Court of Blaii
Hawk; that I voted for the veto, session afore last, after
voting for the Bank ; that I fell out with Mr. Henry Clay,
because he woulon't take no notice of a letter I sent bin
in his room ; and that I got Colonel F. to write my lett,.
and circular.. I have now come among you to coqfut the
calumniating charges, proclaim to you that they are b.i.e
fabrications, got up and set afloat to demolish my election,'"
LAWYERS IN AMERICA,...—AIIIODgtit the
other blessings of abundance in America is that of an
abundant supply of lawyers, if the following paragraph,
given by a N-w York Paper, is to be believed :
" The Bar s,.ems to be the highway to public distinction
in the Maine. The lawyers stem to exercise a tremeodous
p..ditical influence in th,t section. The I:397.7tlandCourier
says that the Press is almost entirely under their control.
Oat of twenty-five palit'k;iai papers in the state, 411 but
one, or two at most, are edited by lawyers. Four lawyers
in succession have exercised the (ALA: of Governor, viz.,
Parris, Lincoln, Hun,oon, and Smith ; and now there are
fur candidates in nomination for the next Governor, and
ail them are liwyers. The Representatives to Congress
are lawyers, and nut of fourteen candidates now in nomi-
nation for Congress eleven of them are lawyers."
INSTINCT.—A short time brick, Mr. Keith,
a veterinary surgeon at Turitr, had occasion to go thence
to Aberdeen, 35 miles. lie 11,d a favourite dog, which
he was desirous of leaving at borne, and took measures for
that purpose. He had not proceed, d a mile, however, when
he taw the dog following the coach. He got down, and
endeavoured to flog the animal back, but in vain; at last
a fellow traveller proposed enclosing the faithful creature
in a large empty box, on the roof of the • coach;
was agreed to, and in tail dark "prison be was

. acquiring a knowledge of the
r9A(I which he had come. Next night Mr. Keith
W-ent to the theatre, still closely followed by his dog;
but, from the crowd, the animal was trodden upon, and
frequently yelped aloud. At the conclusion of the perfor-
mance Mr. Keith came out, but the dog could not be '
found, nor could he the whole of the next day obtain any
tidings of him. Giving him up for lost, he let out on
his return to Tariff, where, to his surprise, he found his
favourite had arrived before him ; the poor animal having,
by the power of instinct alone, found its way to the place
ivlniciet it came.
