Prostitution,

The cry Of Prescription is raised by the Lo'
eoloce press throughout the country over every
change made in the public officers by the Ad-
minisIraIion. When Gen. Taylor came into
power he found almost every Office al the dis
Posal Of the Executive in the hands Of brawl.

many Of them delested by the community in

yet the cry Of prescription is raised when the
people demand their removal, and the Admins

But, let them cry prescription! prescription IL

From the Pittsburg Gazette.
THE POLITICIANS LAMENT.

An editor sat in his.o old arm chair,
His brow wore look of sorrow and care.
And strange were the thoughts which passed thro'
his brain,
As he turned DER his papers again and again,
And read on the pages all scattered about
How ZaCk must go in and Polk must 90 out!
IT'S strange said the editor wipng his brow,
'That we, the Democracy fail town now;
For Cass is man whom we all did expect,
By speeches and writing to safely elect.
The size of his body the strength of his mind,
His service in State and his letters combin'd,
Are wonderful truly, beyond any doubt,
Yet Zack must go in and Polk must go out!''
The editor sighed remarkable sigh,
And something like water came into one eye
And something like water stole dowd his smooth
cheek,
And fell on the "Union," so honest that week,
Now doubling the TRUTH then fearing to doubt,
That Zack must in and Polk must 90 out!
"Ah!" said the editor starting with pride,
As he cast the dear "W ashington Union" aside,
"Ts folly to grieve when we know we are right,
So let lis prepare for the next coming fght
And slander Old Zachary as much as we can,
Till we get every State to cry down the rude man,
And this is the way we'll put them to rout,
Make way for our party and turn the Wings out.
"But OH" groaned the editor, scratching his head.
"Tis four years to that, and the Wings must be fed
In the meantime the scamps will grow saucy and
fat,
Look plea-ed with their keeping, and buy this and
that,
While must lay on my back in this homely old
chair.
A good deal the worse from political wear,
Lamenting the day as turn me about,
When Taylor stepped in and Jimmy stepped out"
