 SCENE Washington, .4rtS. Midnight; totrn bell

 ringing.

 Bmco.-(Awaking from sleep and rubbing his eyes. )-Good heavens wife, what's that noise? What bells that3 What's that ring ing for, this time O night3 My stars how doeful it sounds. Iwonder if Clay is dead ! But, histl here comes Quill, and, by the saints, he's without his brooches. Wife, don't look at him-cover up your head I see he's frightened out of his senses. Hal To, Quill what on earth is the matter2

 Enter, Quill

 QAH.-Humph, notr admy paper Well, sir, you can do as you please; but shall re- port your conduct to the. Clay club, whose political guillotine is as prompt and sanguln- ary as that of the reign of Terror

 Banco.---I1old, Mir. Quill do notmake an ass of yourself, and exhibit your ears for the inspection of your enemies. If don't read your paper, use 1t ]; but for what purposes need not mention. Ny time, Mr. Quill, is taken up by revising work on phreno-poli- teal magnetism, written by Dr. sprigg, for
