II Toy for full groqOn Children.
From the New-England republican.


Mr.. PRINTER,
AMONG the characteristic virtues of
the present day, and perhaps not the
least laudable, may be ranked dis
position to instil into the minds Of the
rising generation knowledge of, and
veneraslOn for, the political institu-
tons of our country. tits the opin-
ion Of some that ballads, and light or
familiar poems, are well calculated
for this end. The antient poem, en-
titled The House that Jack built"
is familiar to every body while the
original sense and spirit of it is pro-
baby In great measure lost. 1t
was thought that Parody of thatpo-
EN-, adapting it to some of the impor-
tapt events Of the Nineteenth Centu-
ry, might not be unacceptable to the
public. Rhyme and numbers, we
know, lay hold of the mind more
tenaciously than prose and the
addition Of scenical exhibition GER
tainly very much increases the effect.
Perhaps it is liberty not strictly al
lowable TO Parody but as it was
not convenient to accompany this
work with the advantage possessed
by the original poem, (that of plates
or cuts) the writer has ventured to
give it a dramatic form.-By this
means, perhaps, it may be made
productive of great good among our
young patriots, by actualtheatric ex-
hibition on some Of our national fest
ivals. 1t may be considered as a spe-
cies of Pantonan1e the poem OF
song, explanatory of the action OF
scenery, to be performed by Cho-
rus, In the ancient manner.
1t may be sufficient to premise, that by
the " House that George built" is
intended the Constitution Of the Uni
ted States, formed under the guiding
influence of the immortal Georgt
Washington and that the " Trunk
is the Treasury.
