Another assures the world that these e. ections turned entirely upon the presidential ques-

These some of the lies political, to say nothing about the oft repeated, oft defeated Her initiate story of "bargain and sac," Golfers of the presidency" sc. &c., or of the eectioneering pro- pensites of Messrs Adams x Clay, in their nterer- with the election of borough officers, orderly ser
  merae under this head the story of the six militia men, and sundry other unpopular reports against Gen Jackson; but by so doing we should lay ourselfable for the very attempting to expose.

At the time the living Morgan has been found at Smyrna, richly attired in the livery of the Grand Turk, and faring sumptuously upon the fruits of hia aposacy This touch at the lies masonic not to mention the often revealed secrets of the crafi, and the many bloody deeds for which it is answerable, To give variety to the scene, ''windfai" from England makes

With $500 borrowed money in his pocket, our of fortune starts for NewYork, en- gages his passage for Liverpool is set shore at Sta Island, and is next heard of in Canada, snapping his fingers at the guils who had taken swindler's word. The Morgan affair is forgotten, and poor Jo seph' slate friends taken all aback at this and successful scheme at over-reachiDg. This, with notice of infants being born with sundry important political names plainly printed upon their eye-balls,- of lambs coming into the world with their hroats cut under mistaken notion that the Tariff bill would not pass, and sheep be no longer profitable stock ;-of skull bones ofpersons supposed have been murder ed, turning to lived hue and dripping with blood. the approach ofthe supposed murderer, must close third series, relatives to articles daily retaled round the country to the asonishment the creduIous and tue scandal of the times.

 U'In eight months, ending the lsr of April last, 43,9O2 packages of British Goods were received at the port of fNew-York. In the period the pre- ceding year the imports amounted to only ? ,543- giving this year of 359 bales packages.
