T he S aturday P rrss .—This pa
pur published weekly iu Now York,
comes nearer to our idea of a truly
humorous, witty and comic paper,
and that without pretending to be
merely such, than any one of the at
tempts that have been made to make
a funny paper in this country.
It is conducted by Henry Clapp,
who says more good things in a sin
gle number thau the late M ra. Grundy
said in her whole twelve. By the
way, Clapp denies that he was ever
on the old lady's staff. Who that
read Mrs. 0. could have imagined
such an absurd idea?
We give a few clippings from the
last 8. P. :
A etc Form of Allegiance. —I here
by solemnly subscribe to the Consti
tution of the United States for life,
and to the New York Sat urday Prang
for one year—promising to renew
my subscription to the latter as often
/is called upon.
Witness my hand and
Seal " this of ——
Green
A. I).,
Name,
Address,
Any person filling up the above
form, enclosing the sum of three dol
lars, and forwarding the same to this
office, will give a proof of his loyalty
and intelligence which will place
him (in our opinion), in the first rank
of American citizens.
We learn on good authority that a
new Irish society is about to be or
ganised in this city, having the
same object in view as the Fenians.
It is to be called "The Independent
Order of Hod Fellows." Every
member is expected to be a brick.
The insignia of the order, it is said,
will be similar to the Masons.
Thus Fur and No Father. —The
City Council of Chicago have been
on a visit to New York during tjie
week to see our city fathers, but
have found only a pack of city poli
ticians.
9
The city having been cheated out
of its census by Mr. Depew, is now
being cheated out of its seuses by
Mr. Herrmann.
The Embassy from the Hey of
Tunis has just made a visit to the
Bay of New York, and very much
regrets that the Bay of New York
cannot pay a visit to the Bey of
Tunis.
OF" The Boston Transcript says
there is now on exhibition at a jew
eller's shop in that city a curious
piece of sculpture, intended as "a
present from a gentleman of London
to a literary gentleman of Boston.
The carving is on a piece of Heme's
Oak, Celebrated by a well known
passage in Hhakspeare. This famous
oak, after having stood the blasts of
many centuries, was prostrated by
one of more than ordinary fury,
vvhich swept through the forests of
Windsor in 1853. Great has been
the anxiety of thousands, since its
destruction, to possess fragments of
it, but few, who had not 'a friend at
court,' could be gratified with even a
small fragment. In this exquisite
piété of sculpture Shakspeare is
finely represented, as are also Herne
the hunter, and his horse and
hounds."
ty The N. Y. Times —Republi
can—denominates the Sumner school
o^ Radicals "chronic malcontents,"
and says "there can be no doubt
that the country is tired and dis
gusted with the extreme and extrav
agant style in which the claims of
the negro have been pressed. By a
very active and peremptory school
of political and social reformers, the
claims, interests, courage and char
acter of the whites have been made
wholly subordinate to those of the
blacks. There must in the nature of
things be a reaction to all this—and
the Connecticut election indicates
that it has begun. How far it will
go, or what results it will accom
plish, remains to be seen. It will
probably, at all events, somewhat
dampen the ardor of ambitious poli
ticians who have supposed ultra de
votion to the negro the only winning
card, and it may possibly satisfy
party leaders that it is not always
safe rashly to insert new planks in a
party platform."
#*grThe Indian names which desig
nate BO many of our naval vessels are
the subject of many transformations
by Jack. He calls the Wissahickon
the "Widow Higpns the Miami
the "Miasma and now the Mianton- j
omab has been christened by the same |
authority. "My aunt knows no-man," i
and the Shockoekou the "Shocking,
corn." '
