grace. 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.
