IMPEAcHMEsT OF THE Presidential

might be attempted against the there existing

Now, As these movements IN New York
for Rhode Island are so very phanthropc
i ], is meet that the good pcop" Of Providence
Plantation prepare for the terrible onslaught
/ Ml. John Windt may make upon them. But
os for the President, assaled on all sides by
the Locofocos, and on SO many sides by the
Wings, we know not what will become OF
him, It Mr.. John Windt should, perchance
march hls army upon Washington!
marching forth to vindicate the rights, and
honor of Rhode Island! Imagine the Five
J Points 10 battle array in the land of Roger
I Williams! There, is Major General Windt
on the right wing Of the corps Of latterde-
~maliops. armed with shln bones, and accou.
lttrd ~ Joseph coats of many colors, with long
md doubtful inlcrsiices between. And there
: is on the leil wing Jack Cude or Jim Crow

and many tongues, with brlckbats IT, one hand
md broolnstIcks IN the other. The chlvalry
OF ireland forms the centre with shlllclahs
brandi,hing, and voices screaming ant
screechlng ;--aud then succeed a host o.
camp followers at all nations, creeds, color:
and clothes, whose language would confount
the builders NJ Babel, aud whose look create
the most snlinalIng astonisbment in Nara

surrounding the city Of Providcnce,-to win

the kitchens would suffer ten thousand times

W. speak thus con,emp,uously Of those
