han these two saints are. Several years ago, beth
we're democrats-both frequented Tammany Hall
King appeared in cid coat and sIouched hat, long
black wiskers with dirty shirt sticking out at his
wrists, bawling out for " democracy and the buck
lails-down with Clinton" Noah was at The same
place, in Of the second hand suits Of his tribe,
with red whiskers, old hat, his dirty iaen site king
out Of his breaches, drinking beer out Of mug,
and also bawling the same cry" democracy and
buck tails-down with Clinton" Both Noah and
King then supported Van Baren and opposed Clinton
We remeMber the time as well yesterday. By
and by they quarrelled about the spo'is-sepa-
rated-casd each .ther all sort Of names, and came
near fighting, only Noah was too great coward
King went for Mr.. Adams, Noah for Crawford. Since
then both have changed sides and suits as oten as the
gre It Alexandra changes characters at the Park
Theatre, till at last they are found side BY side
again in the party, each the organ OF clique in
Wall street, one trying to foist Henry Clay the
country, and the other, lacking himself to the
skirts Of General Scott, our special candidate, pro-
which we must say indicates tact. Both
these fellowsl and their cliques-the one profess
ing old clothes Jew, believes in nothing;
the other claiming to be second hand Christian,
who believes it little-are tearing to pieces
the whig party, they 6srcey tore their breaches
in stamping and hurrahing for democracy at Tam
many Hall
We say it is amusing to these fellows, because
neither Scott Clay be be benefited or injur-
ed by either. In this city their mpndence, assump-
ton, arrogance, and folly well understood. and
some curious "reminiscences of this shall give at
our leisure. Meantime General Scott is the only
candidate that can be elected by the wings.
NECTAR FROM HEAVEN The other evening at a
small literary and musical soirse, we tasted some
very choice champagne :" Where do you get this?'
asked we. From Gil Davis's famous cellar
the reply. I'VE must try that cellar one of these
days." and so we shall.
THE METEoRs At LAsr--Henry Meigs, Esq,
observed a beautiful Aurora Borealis, between 10
o'clock and noon yesterday. The rays of light as
sumed the most brilliant ultra. marine hues. They
from the zenith towards the east and the west
none south. The sun was shining with great bril-
lancy, bat not much to obscure their light.
This phenomenon not generally observed-the
worse ssrmons-and not seeing the q ry Of God, or
observing his great handywork. For mine own
part would rather the language ofthe Almighty,
as rten over the broad sheet Of heaven than hear
the dull sermons Of half the pious blockheads in
New York. The little finger Of the Lord is worth
the full grown carcases often thousand dirty
