The Disguised Metropolitan.

Officer Babylon is evidently disgusted.
but not for the reason ascribed to him BY
one Of the lively and highly imaginative re.
porters of the Times. Yesterday this faith.
full Metropolitan appeared to us in the light
of a man who was something more than
disguised. He had read in the Sunday
Times long account Of a-pretended inter.
view, in which he IS placed in the role of a
dissatisfied fugitive from the field of duty.
He handed Us the following card. which he
accompanied with what the Danbury Nems
man would characterize as few forcible
remarks:
