HON. JOHN MORRISSEY

Is also a Great Ex-pounder. Even greater than WEBSTER, for the

constitution of the United States is a trifling affair, compared with

the constitution of J.C. HEENAN.

Mr. MORRISSEY is a very able man and made his mark early in life. Before

he could write his name, I'm told. No man has made more brilliant hits,

and his speeches are concise and full of originality. "I'll take mine

straight." "No sugar for me," &c., have become as household words.

A man like this, though he may be vilified and slandered for awhile,

will eventually come in on the home stretch with a right bower to spare.

That's a nice place JOHN has got at Saratoga. Fitted up so elegantly,

and with so much money in it, it looks like a Fairy bank with the

fairies gambolling upon the green. It's all very pretty, no doubt, but

excuse me if I pass.
