manufacture and unconscious of crime, we are happy to hear they have been all liberated.  King George III. was taken in such bad company as is a sufficient proof that he is crazy. Napoleon undoubtedly rejoiced when he beheld the faithful execution in our waters, of his continental system.  Washington and Hamilton were glad that they were in their graves, before their country had been plunged so deeply in disgrace.  Had not Pickering and Hillhouse been indeed made of wax, they would have thrown Bonaparte and Jefferson overboard and given them the freedom of the Seas.  If the custom-house officers had kept possession of Poor Madison, they could never have obtained much money for him, as he now is a sorry figure, since he has been scalped and tomahawked by Smith.  Burr, the democratic vice-president and traitor, who has now gone home to France, ought to be exhibited for the instruction of the People, in every village.  Giles must have been liable to have been York-sheared by Mrs. Clark, who, on a July day, when the weather was at blood heat, must have been in a melting mood and susceptible of impressions.  But he is an advocate of Non-Intercourse.  The officers of the Revenue, notwithstanding they were in such a taking fit, and had conceived such vain & high blown hope of the immense wealth they should receive as the ransom of their Captives, have not half so good a chance of a prize as those adventurers who will call at Cushing and Appleton’s, one door west of central Building, and purchase a Ticket or quarter in Harvard College Lottery now drawing.
