which he was represented as one o.
those little dancing Jacks, and Lord
Wellington had hold OF the string,
making him kick in every direction,
and underneath was written the
words A"a man that kicks every
way" This is, politically and gen
orally speaking, about a fair repre-
senlalion OF the man, as he kicks fre-
quenlly ut friends as well as foes.

He has very singular way otintcr-
iuptin9 people when they are talk
