Has Anybody seen SAINT

Has any one seen him, sure enough :?
We are in earnest in this inquiry. The
dusty young giant of three years since !;
that miraculous young man whose clothes
were made of star-spanglcd banners; who
took exclusive possession of our national
fowl, and was won't to take his rides up
on the back of that great old bird-where
is he? He used to be around" and
we received weekly notifications Of the
Whereabouts of his footprints, but now
alas. we see nothing about "Sam" in
any of the intense American" prints.
Miraculous young orators, who, three
years ago, were won't to "stir up the
great American heart" with their eulogies
Of "Sam," are now as silent as the harp
which is supposed to be hanging on Ia
ra's walls 80 no, they never mention
him p
Where rs "Sam ?" That remarkable
young man who essayed to rule America /;
who had such fear of the Pope and
Catholic school marms; who was so great
on Smelling Committees and " ashingt ton
Monuments-has anybody seen him p
Will none of those old fogies who SO sud-
denly discovered "Sam" was the boy for
.heir money; who believed that tue Office
should seek the man, and who had their
eyes opened all of sudden to the new
and startling doctrine that Americans
should rule America; will mono of these
old grandames tell us the present locality
Of the young giant? He can't be dead,
for there is abundant testimony that be
is immortal. Didn't Carrot Davis say
SO? and don't Carrot know? Don't the
Louisville Journal say so? and who can
gainsay what appears in the Louisville
Journal? He can't be dead. Oh, no.
lie has great work to perform yet
He has to change the naturalization laws,
elect Mr.. Fillmore President, suppress
Popery, put Americans on guard, and
rule America. Carrot Davis and the
Louisville Journal said "Sam" would do
this, and Sam will do it or burst. But
the question comes up again, where is
Sam? Is he sleeping? Has he gone
North to see his brudder Sambo? or is
ne unwell himself? Has AIRY borry seen
him ?-f5ualsfon Heoman.
