ALL ABOUT HEADS.

heads, which, lest you may fail tie pnt
under the appropriate head, | request
you to place under the head of 'heads.'
Now whether an idea will be hatched
by an incubation or not | am not, at
this moment fully prepared to say ;
but am Of opinion that they are bad
eggs, on account of so many being
added.
There is "A great variety Of heads, a
fact which | huve learned by long tx.
perience and great observaton--bot
animate and lnanlmate the most prom
inent Of which are the dough heads, the
mutton heads. the mullet heads, the
leather heads, the heads of sermon,
the head of family, the head of the
heap, and the head Of navigatin. Up
en- these heads we will make few re-
marks, in the order in which they oc.

assert, as my opinion, that the dough
head members of the calico p rty' will
ruin the dough head members Of the
Legislature, and that the d~uIh head
members of the Legislature Will ruin
tho reputation Of the State. What Il
catastrophe Of dough heads !
The mutton heads are sort Of olca-
ginou, institutions, and Of nee >sity
rather hard TO handle They should
more properly be called putty heads.
They are us'ul in stopping up the
seams and hnIus Of the social circles,
their Susceptibility of indentation ena-
