For the Republican,
WHAT THE DEVIL THINKS or TT:

His satanic majesty, who reigns below,
Bundled up in haste on earth to 60.
Oh /! viii her now" his fireman cried,
Does your majesty intend to ride!
Sure. sinners plenty steam and fry,
And loud for water, water cry;
Our cells are full our fires burn bright.
Then wherefore, Lordship, ride tonight"
:" Well" answered he, in haste go,
To combat friend instead Of foe;
For earth seems ready to rival hell,
I must stop their fuss. or II! have to sell.
There kolitics do ride so high,
The good, for quiet to US will fiy
They can not stand the stir and strife,
Would cen seek hell for quiet life.
They'd ruin my kingdom in trce,
By filling it with virtue instead Of vice."
Pray" said the fireman, pray tell me,
What all this fuss on earth may be-"
Yes" answered majesty, ~ will explain,
How comes this fuss in Grants domain
The Radicals are. you know, in power
Have held the reins for many an hour,
But the party was about to split
They've had spasm, or else fit.
And DR.. New Departure came around,
With his patent salve for every wound;
The split-otf man. he tried it on,
But was greeted by fierce Begone!
Ill not be fooled by quack quack, quack;
Dr. n. D. you had as we'll so back
Into Mr. vallAndigham's brain.
And not slsw me your salve again
But the good doctor gave grUnr
And softly pOcketed this arfrUnt,
Then turning to Democratic ears,
Whispered, quiet your nerves and calm your
fears,
The very salve YOU long have sought
To bool Ia 70 ve
iii grease your amendments well,
And soon their presence none can tell.
II your party with my salve will grease,
I'll assure twill bring it power and ease
So Courier Journal. Esq. in haste sets out
This happy issue to bring about.
But all in vain he putfed and blew,
He could only prevail on very few
To grease, and ease their every pain.
And their men the offices thus regain.
But such q noise he manages to make
That good folks ears begin to ache.
What with Democrat quarre.s and Radica! splits
They are giving the States particular fits
And what to do can't we'll tell,
Ii the good people do take to hell.
Nor when I'll be back, can now say;
But you'd best chain up while I'm away.
Make up fresh fires, very large and hot;
I'll bring back the leaders, il they can be got.
We need speaker Lere below;
III bring Mr.. CT, unless he says no.
And a collector, too, to gather my dues,
I'll ask Grant for C-y; he'll not refuse
No other use he has for him now.
And think can get him anyhow.
But the biggest fire prepare for the Tammany ring,
They'll be apt to burn like anything.
I'll have to brir them down from the States,
Or they'll rival hell, going on at these rates.
know we II be crowded. but better thus
Than be rivaled by an earthly fuss"
Thus saying he rode, as mounting higher,
Called back to the fireman. Now make that fire, :"

A PROFESSIONAL GoATCATCHER-John
Henderson. reported as professional
goatcatcher in the First District was be-
fore Recorder Houghton for making use OF
language containing threats. When asked
4or lis lawful commission, he produced a
document after a military form. which
authorized him to capture all kinds OF
animals, except rats and chickens, which,
he said, was obtained for him through the
extreme kindness Of Captain Cain and
Neneral Houlihan. But his commission
Nio not permit him to utter threats against
mankind and disturbing the city's peace.

are we coming to, when city official, one
holding such an exalted position. is not
only incarcerated, but actually mulcted in
an inadequate penalty
New Orleans Republican., 1871-10-08

If citizens or others do not relish seeing
their names published in tue REPUBLICAN,
they must not lay themselves liable. The
moment that an arrest is made and charge
written we are undoubtedly authorized. by
all right, to print the same. If any tribu-
nal has right to arraign prisoner in open
court, we have a right to parade the case
before that portion OF the public that could
not be present when the judicial examina-
tion was in progress.

exterminated the small songsters that for
merly made that suburban locality not only
musical, but kept down the supply Of insect
life, such as are injurious to garden vegeta-
ton. Dwellers in that section miss small
birds, and will soon ask our City Council to
circumscribe the limits allowed to pot hun

Money is what most people tug and toll
for: and the majority are always short of
this very necessary article. This comes
from not outstanding their means, and oc-
casionally buying ticket in the Louisiana
State Lottery. A few dollars spent in this
way not unfrequently brings wealth and
ease for the balance of life.

Who stopped the Tidal Wave III 3nor
the knowledge of the undersigned that the pre-.
servatiOn OF the city Of New Orleans FROM the
threatened inundatiOn by the tidal wave is mainly
due to the superhuman and hercuean efforts of
Murty Sullivan ESQ.,, deputy constable Of the First
Justice Court. who, with the laudable view of
saving the public from so dire calamity had the
clerk of the weather enjOined from pursuing his
threatened course; but neither Sheriff Sauviret
nor any Of his deputies could find any such person
upon whom to serve the document, he was thrown
upon his own resources.
But here the gigantic intellect of Mr. OSuvan
came into play. Being fertile in eXpelients, he
proceeded to the Lake end, where. having arrived.
he Immediately called for SON ething to keep the
cold out. this done feeling greatly refreshed and
strengthened thereby, he walked to the waters
edge and delivered the following address: Il,

court, and of my blackshorn stick which hold in
my hand, do hereby eniOin you 1.-THE tidal wave) to

tind to purshue" After delivering this burst of
elOquence finding the waves did not abate, he be-
came lncensed at this seemi 8 contempt Of his
thO1ity, and dvested himself of his clothing. with
his good blackthOrn in his hand, he prepared for
the onslaught As fast the waves advanced he
