Ticking the R'bs of DUFF Greer sra the Rsgudctor5
sen. Duff Green, who appears to be serving
the public III a sort Of way il, London, has Wit
ten several letters to the London Times about
Reputation, &c. IN reference to Sydney Smiths
scowling sarcasms. The Times at last excluded
him, with the back handed compliment that his
impudence was talent The Reverend Joker
Of Jokes responds to him as follows

a fox, says Pipay, caught by, the leg IN d

eng cries Of distress forthwith all the BIRDS OF
the yard gathered round him and seemed TO de-

dishonesty; nor, remembering their former state,
can restrain myself from calling on them Though

I am astonished that the honest States OF Anne
rica do not draw Gordon SaJtt0ire around their ul-
paving brethren; that the truly mercantile New

duration Is any man so iooish as 10 suppose 'liat
Rotllschild has nothing TO do with such wars as
these and that bankrupt State without the power
of borrowing shilling in the world may n0tbe crp-
