ECCLESIASTICAL TRANSPORTATION.

Now B--y P--l has beat the Whigs,
The Church can't understand
Why Bot'ny Bay should be all sea,
And have no _see_ on land.

For such a lamentable want
Our good Archbishop grieves;
'Tis very strange the Tories should
Remind him _of the thieves!_

EPIGRAM.

An American paper tells us of a woman named Dobbs, who was killed in a
preaching-house at Nashville, by the fall of a chandelier on her head.
Brett's Patent Brandy poet, who would as soon make a witticism on a cracked
crown as a cracked bottle, has sent us the following:--

"The _light of life_ comes from above,"
Old Dingdrum snuffling said;
"The _light_ came down on Peggy Dobbs,
And Peggy Dobbs was _dead_."
