It's politics are healthy sound. The pro-

Of this assertion. The principal characters
represent the world at large, with SD positive
line drawn between the good and bad as to
leave no doubt as to which party they would
Join were they American citizens.
LIST. The IMMoRTALs" undoubtedly rep
resent the Republican Union Party. Espe-
cially are we confirmed in this opinion when
we see them triumphing over the powers of
darkness.
2d. The " ANPHTBEA." These mongrel
creatures are introduced into the play for no
other reason than to represent the johnson
party.

4th. The "INFERNALs." Democracy in its
palmiest days, never surpassed these sulphur
rous demons in downright cussedness. In
deed the likeness is so striking. that the refec-
tive minds of many who haze grown gray in
political sin, are startled from their wonted
squanimity as they witness this indubitable
evidence that the home of Democracy beyond
the grave is tropical in temperature, and sui.
phur baths are no rarity there.
| In conclusion, We not only exonerate Bro.
MITcHELsOS from blame. but compliment him
on his sagacity. in so early discovering the
