1t would be very safe to offer

Debauchery of Prominent Men.

The reign of Charles III left no
deeper stain on the pages Of England's
history for debauchery and the license
for the indulgence of the bascst pas
sions, than is being made on the history
of our unfortunate country by those
in high position. An occasional lit
ing of the curtain reveals to the public
gaze scenes that are being enacted on
the official stage that should mantle
every American cheek with shame.
The most shameless prostitution, oil
every character, which calls down the
curse of Heaven upon our country
is of every day occurrence, and calls
loudly for a Hercules to clean thu
public stable and if the matter Il
much longer delayed the country il
inevitably ruined. y
