The Progress ofthe Rerol,aion in Rhode Island-7he
Gas escaping-Ihe contemplated Organi.atio, Of
the Ne,c Government.
JAMES GORDON BENNETT, Esq.
SIR:-
The small beer effervescence, which has been 60
ing on for some time in this State, still continues
though so much of the gas has passed off since the
bottle was uncorked, that it rather subsidies. Don
Parmenter Il Co. the elete of the revouonists, and
the grand focus of the immense circle work hard to
keep up the excitement to the end of the humbug
which is to of on Tuesday next. Great pre-.
partitions are making by the head and front of the
party to carry out the august ceremony Of inaugma-
lion, and for charlng his Excelency-Heaven save
the mark-and organizing the disorganzers. And
| such band! would not libel the name and me-
mory of Jack Cade; and, therefore, will compare
the leaders and the led to that celebrated parsonage
and his motley host. History, it is believed, does
| not charge honest Jack with forging notes, nor
stealing leather, and whatever may have been his
other faults he stood fire. and took his chance with
his followers. part of the heroes of this revolu-
ton, having dlsresh for the smell of gunpowder,
and a peculiar horror of stone walls and hempen
cords, have backed out within few weeks past
The remaining members OF the staff, more obstinate
though not whit more courageous, will follow suit
and clear from the field the moment the enemy ap-
pears in sight.

while to enjoy little sport, would not be bad no
ton for them to take trip to this place TO witness
the imposing ceremonies, and participate In the do
mgs of their brother patriots of Rhode Island. The
celebrated orator, Pamener, will, no doubt, very
cordially receive his friends Vanderpoel and Purdy,
and present them TO his especial friend the Governor
elect, under the peoples constitution par ercelsnce
1t would be very edifying to the ignorant Rhode Is
landers to hear discussion amongst these learned
wseacres, with the addition of a steam doctor, OF
the important subjects of criminal Jurisprudence the
means of detecting flaws in indictments, and the
merits OF root beer, lobeha, cayenne and steam.
The editor of the New Era would be very import
ant addition, as he would be able to inform the
public how many forgeries IT requires man should
perpetrate to give him character above reproach-
Vide New Era on the character of Parmenter.
The meeting OF the sympaihisers In New York
has not raised the steam much in this community
few of the most simple among the insurgents, ii
bic portion have little faith in the spouting and re
solves of the Bucktas, who, il s'well-known, re-
solve and re-resolve, and die the same. They
know, too, that those same Bucktails, in backing
their friends, always conduct the same as the sooty
majesty of the neither regions, who sustains those
who league themselves with hun, Just as long as II
may suit his interest, and then drops them INTO --'
The Tammany Bucktails would like very well to
head Captain Tyler; and are perfectly willing, at
present. TO give some little encouragement 10 the
dlsorganizers here, long as they may entertain
hope of revolutionzing the STATE and usurping the
political power But that hope, if it now exists,
will be short lived; and in fortnight hence
they will be as likely az any way to be on
the side of Captain Tyler and arrayed against
their Rhode Island friends and proteges, All this is
perfectly understood; and besides this, the disorgan
zers cannot for the life OF them, get nd of the UNI
comfortable reflection, that Uncle Sam has his eye
upon us, and will give the Bucktails and other mer-
cenaries gentle hint to remain at home, while he
sets things TO rights in the household of his little
daughter Rhody.
The Dorrites have given themselves a great deal
OF unnecessary trouble, aud made much needless
buster Expecting to be interrupted in the prose-
cution Of their boyish parade, on Tuesday next.
they called for troops, purchased muskets, and or
gained squads of grown up boys to use them; and
have looked big and talkedloud But no interruption
ls intended, or has been intended, and the hum
bug will be permitted to go on ito the end Of the
chapter. After that comes the winding up And
then, if Vanderpoel, Purdy & Co. think proper to
back up their friends, let them come on. They will
meet warm reception, and be provided with snug
quarters, at the public expense, ORDERLY.
