The reception OF Gen. Jackson on Sa.
turday, was such as to excite on his part
The most grateful sensibi!i!ies he ever expe-
rienced, and such as was honorable TO the
city Of New-York. At IL O'Clock, the
General lanied al Whitehall from On board
the eam-Boat Nautilus, from The seat of
the Vice President on Staten Island. When
passing the Battery, his approach was an
nounced by salute fired by detachment
of artillery. He assembled the pier under
salute from the Revenue Cutter, amidst
the animating huzZas of thousands who ad
assembled 10 behold the man who had per-
formed so many and such important servi-
ces. Having mounted his horse, the Gene
raj was escorted by two companies of ca
vaIry through Broadway to The City Hall.
where he was received by The Mayor and
Corporation. After the ceremonies at the
Hall, he was escorted to his lodgings,
where he received numerous visits until four
o'clock. A little after five the General,
with his suite proceeded TO the residence
oil bis Honor the Mayor, where they dncd.
In the evening he attended the Theatre,
which was crowded with beauty and fash

YANKEE PUNS.
Kicking Cattle.

One story leads on to another,
Twas Clod ,peThops-perhaps, his brother,
Who cattle own'd, much prone to kicking
! untam'd by coaxing or by licking,
So down be goes, the roguish wretch,
( To put them of for wha: they'd fetch.
AT length man he chanc'd TO light or,
S At Brookline, Roxbury, and Brighton,
Who wish'd to buy SO feeling round,
They fairly kicked him to the ground.
"I VOW" said Clod, sand I'll be swore,
Ineyer seed them kick before"
The cattle lock both sleek and thriving;
So thinking that twas over driving
Them restlesssnd uneasy made,
The bargain struck, and money paid
The man his cattle drives away,
And puts them up TO corn and hay.
Blu, ifhe e'er comes near their shanks,
He fnasihem full of kicking pranks.
Ere long he found the rogue, who, sold;
And gan most furiously to scold.
'.You rascal, villain, scoundrel, cheat,
, Az honest man how dare you treat
As yeu have me ? Who'll trust you more!
i Tosay they never kick'd before ~
3'Stop, sir, look sharp says Clod you'll Ind
SWhen e'er they kick, they kick behind"
