INTO the old co' trade ?! In order be able
these enquiries, we directed the other day, several
OF our reporters TO make investigation into all
the old clo' shops of New York, in the range Of
Chatham street-hoping that some information might
be found, IN that quarter, of the Whereabouts of
this Hebrew curiosity-this amable broken-down
consul-this kind broken-down politician-this vir-
tuous broken-down edior--broken down Judge ,&c
After dilgent search and at an enormous expense,
our corps Of reporters ascertained that the Major
had actually sunk into the editor and proprietor of
low, vulgar, dirty, obscure weekly paper, issued
somewhere near the Five Points, or Chatham row.
that he was driving away his old trade of SANDER
and polltics-that he still showed symptoms OF the
blood of Judas lscariot and Barabbas mixed
in "a small way-hat he had nearly reached
the end of his career, and that his last
hold was only a feeble grasp upon the old
breeches (cost of mendng the hole only 62a

Tor pork contract-a consulshp at Ichaboe-or, at
al events lot OF old clothes worth thirty pieces of
silver to crafty his taste for spos in his old age.

lie fully informed from the amiable old Major him.

following extract from copy of his last Sunday paper
which, like true Jew descended from the race of
Barabbas, he publishes weekly on the Christian Sab
bath. The initials and some of the names are only
altered as to shew precisely his present occupa-
tion-his existing caibrr Of mind--and his real po-
stion the Napoleon of the press rustcating on
st. Helena. Alas poor old Jew!
