lady sent up to the platform pretty little boy Of four
years old, to Cngusz to be kissed and caressed by
the new Othello; she enjoyed the SO well that
she sent up also pretty little girl of six years old
to get kiss also, Of the same desirable thick lips.
We thought every moment she would have kissed
the fellow herself bat she had too much modesty
for the heroic act-she only prayed and made the
chief present.
Our rcsLIc MES AND fusIsc ,dEAsuREs.-
The eyes Of all our public in all parts Of the
csaatry, are turned to the state Of New York. On.
its measures and for the next five weeks,
depends the fate Of the two great political parties for
the next five years, well all their measures and
movements. The preparations for the coming contest
commenced this week in the ward meetings; and
from this time till the November election, there will
be a constant succession cftrickery and reguery and
lying and cheating, and swearing and rascaty Of
the tallest kind, all perpetrated from tho patr
otto motives imaginable for the COED Of the country
and the preservation Of the party; which means
sef-interest and scoundrelism.
Every thing connected with the political aspect Of
the country for the next four years. will depend upon
the coming November election That will deter
mine the question of the next presidency. After the
election we shall be able to determine whether Mr.
Van Buren, is to be the next President, or whether
he is to be succeeded by General Scott. Nor ii is
not at all certain which way the state will co. Dsss
spite Of all the lies, and braggadseas and boastngs7
and stupid calculations and follies that will be
trated by rascay politicians from this time till the
second Tuesday in November; il will Be i'm
possible to say until the returns are il, whether
the administration party will regain the state or not
1t is as likely to 90 for Mr.. Van Buren, as against
him. But which ever way it does go, goes his
chance for the next presidential term. Governor

foolish way; he has been hard at work the whole

the country; he is new busy with plans tc remove
