MENT OF THE YOU'VE Observation-Disclosures
OF JEM GRANT CORPORATION BARBER-We
hasten to inform all applicants for office under
the new corporation that comes into power
on the OH of May, that in virtue of our "de-
mocracle" we have appointed Jem Grant, No.

important appointment of Corporation Barber, and
we have issued orders that he shall Immediately
commence trimming, shaving and brushing up all
poor devils, who during the recent wing dynasty,
have been in want of soap snds and other necessary
comforts.
The famous slate" with the secret of its ma
gical power has also been placed in possession,
enclosed in something that resembles the ark of the
covenant, or in its peculiar shape rather more like
the coffin of Mahomet, which was suspended be-
tween heaven and earth at Mecca. This extraordi.
nary slate contains two sides, Tone of which is red
the other blue. The names placed on the red side
are set down as certain OF success, those on the
other, uncertain, as uncertainty in application for
Office is rather blue business.
We have therefore opened the blue slate and re-
corded the following names, some of which will be
transferred to the red side as the applicant
is propery trimmed, lathered, shaved and brushed
by Jem Grant so as to be fit to pass muster.
