He kept out of the reach of every

And the enemy too, and it was done
without falnting.

No doubt of it: he wouldn't be a
Democrat if he was not familiar with
corruption.

No doubt Gen Eiall had your best

Presidential question. He is out strong
for Scorr:
each pretty hand
Can steer ship becamd; but he that will
Govern hera and carry her to her ends, must know
His tides, his currents; how to shift his sails;
What she will bear in foul! what in fair weathers:
Where her springs are, her leaks, and how to
stop 'em:
What sands, what shelves, what rocks do threat
en- her;
What forces and the natures o. all winds,
Gusts, storms and tempests: when her keel
poughs hell,
And deck knocks heaven; then TO manage her,
Becomes the name and Office Of a pilot"

purpose.

published in London. | see it goes
strong for Pierce, and no doubt your
friends will subscribe!
Exit Locofoco, in hurry.
