 BRIEF POLITICAL BIOGRAPHIES.
 VOL. Fl.
 There a queer fellow named Tilden, Who in Gramercy Park hire a buildin'; Then he cipher dispatched
 Until he got catched,
 Which last politically killed i'm.
 There was a sad Yankee named Barnum, Who was vigorously given to darnum' He fixed up, with 8 brag,
 The Chinese letter gag,
 Then died-his disease, too much yarnum.
 I'll.
 There was New Yorker called Roscoe, Who endeavored to get up Boss Co.,, But New York snelled rat,
 And Conkling, he gat,
 And might now as well be in MOSCOW There was small man called Platt,
 Who was hired to hold Conklings hat; And when Roscoe said 'Boo !"
 He'd pipe out sMe too,''
 And he never dared say more than that. There was 6 man who could harp but one string, And to that New York declared she'd not sing; His Sharpe, And Roscoe the harp
 (Which last is hung up the poor th1ng). There is a man named Malone,
 Whose body all skin and bone;
 And when with great buster
 He yells siRe-ad uster,"
 The Bourbon encampnent doth groan. There is Pocket Book walter,
 Whose destiny money can't alter,
 And when election is thro',
 He'll have nothing to do
 But spend what is left for halter.

Monsignor Seton, of Jersey City, has some thing to say concerning clerical authority in this country which will meet with general approval. It won't do, he says, for priest to swing his shiIlelah over the heads of an American congregation and order them to do this or to do that, when the doing or not doing Is none of the reverend gen. tleman's business In matters of faith there is rule which priest and people are equal ly bound to obey. Outside of that, in secular matters, the parishioner is free to decide and to act for himself, and any at tempt at dictation on the part of the pastor IS an impertinenee. f1n the church, D says he, q am Monsignor Seton, prelate and in church matters I have authority. As an American citizen I am plain Robert Seton, and the bricklaya: who builds the walls of my house is my equal 3
