Lscoiocoism that has all England up TO the
very hem Of Victoria's petticoat.--If it goes any
further with her, we shall cut her acquaintance We
have hundreds and thousands of churches and rail-
roads, and steamboats, and state prisons, and penn
tentarics, and pretty women, and poudrette compa-
MES; and there 10 earth, or in heaven,
or hell, why we should not have paper money enough
piled up to reach the arch Of heaven, cotton enough
on hand to bridge the broad Atlantic and unlimited
credit till the cry of the Archangel is heard on the
resurrection morning, when God Almighty have
mercy on the soul of every sinner in this city, part
cularly the pickpockets and pious people that pro-
menade Wall street weekly.
REPUBLICANS IN EUROPA great number of re-
publicans and democrats including two of His
Democratic Majesty, have gone to Europe for the
benefit of their health their intellect their pockets
their manners, and their grammar; and strange to
say, many of these republicans as can get .
clean shirt and good pair of breeches presented
to the Queen, and become good royalists ever fter
They become entirely changed; and by the time Mr.
Webster and others get back to America, they viii
be in fit state to second Mr.. Van Buren, in all his
movements No class Of persons seem so devoted
TO all the forms and fashions of royalty the pure
republicans of America and we really begin to
think that democracy means nothing more less
than royalty of the purest water q carats fine. We
all becoming royalty drunk royalty ridiculous
by the intercourse and march of steam. Steam is
changing every thing; steam is turning the world
upside down. and playing the very devil with every
body. .stAa-ssa
BY the aid of steam His Democratic Majesty sent
his two princely to be introduced to Queen Vic
toria; by the aid Of steam Mr. Webster dined and
drank wine with the Queen, and danced at her ball.
BY the aid of steam the Atlantic has lost half its
width. By the aid of steam Mr. Clay is making a
royal progress in the West, and Mr.. Van Buren, a
royal progress in the East. Steam does it all, and
by the aid of steam we all going to the devil.
The conjunc tien Of the two royal planets will
take place over cool spring at Saratoga, where the
two monarchs can take glass Of Congress Water,
cool themselves of, and recover their senses. In
Short all the wisdom, fslly, wit, id nonsense,
philosophy, piety, roguery, genius, twaddle, and
intellect, are getting mixed up by Of steam,
that hardly knows what he is whether he IS
himself or somebody else, whether he is a man
only woman III breeches In Short steam is unsex-
ing the world, and turning it upside Mr.
Clay is delivering speeches by steam the Falls
Of Niagara, and Mr.. Van Buren, is doing the same
over his cabbages at Undertook; both great affairs
but Mr. Cay's is by far the greatest In short, he is
the greatest man of the day-the only great man
there is in the world; and tomorrow we shall proba-
bly, translate his great speech into English, for the
benefit Of posterty. lie, else viii ever
speak greater speech this side the grave, whatever
they may do the other. We doubt whether another
" 80 There may possibly be as great
a speech made ON the day Of Judgment; but il is
id doubtful unless here is plenty Of steam there.
BY steam all losing distinctive charac te
tories are becoming radcals-apd locofocos royal
lists. We might safely oifera reward Of 81 900 for
democrat; for couldn't find one. We light offe r
$1,000 reward for Wing, or a royalist; but we
couldn't find one. We might safely offer $1,000 re-
ward for the devil; but he couldn't be found; for
steam has SO completely changed His Satanic Ma
jesty, that he would be mistaken for an angel Of
light We all out OF joint; and we want an
earthquake, or thunder storm, or laundering uni
versal conclusion, or food, or general tearing up
Of every thing, to set straight again. The world
doesn't run rodnd fast enough the procession of the
equinoxes which took place in 5000 or 5000
years, ought to take place every five or six years;
the attraction Of gravaton, the centripeta and cen
trifugai forces must all be superseded by steam and
we must sweat less and swear mare and so work out
our soal's salvation.
