The Dame, prolific in her wanton feats, The Lawyer, in the Monarch's throne, now seats. He sets example, and each pair embrace! The clock strikes twelve, the King his throne descends,. A Regent seek to fill the empty throne! From our young friends may we example take, o q From principle, not fear-a Regent make! Like them invest him with dominion wide, A potent ruler and a faithful guide. May next Twelfth-Night no other fill the throne A happy people, blest with liberty! So shall the joys of this revolving night To us give gladness, and to him—his right ! g CHARLES. T CONSULTATION EXTRAORDINARY.”" [Front the Morning Herald, Jan. 10.] 1 1 IN the course of the last three day's certain Politicophysico characters have been consulted apart, by persons in the maintenance of high authority, on the necessity of some anodyne to be administered to John Bull, under the, alarming symptoms of his present disorder! The senior recommended the trial of another sleeping dose, which generally abated his fever. The two next in rank recommended simple emollients only, for an alterative, as a nausea had arisen on John's stomach, and his tongue exhibited rather a rough coat, from too long an adherence to the same diurnal doses. A fourth, fourth, of bolder practice (the said compounds having lost their effect), would immediately prescribe a lumping bolus of Convalescence, which, if skilfully administered in John's usual broth, might operate as an! astringent, and prove a salutary bracer to the Constitution! The fifth begged to defer his opinion, as in all complicated cases of a political tendency he never ventured to write until he had first consulted-his Wife. An open Consultation is expected this day, when John's case will be taken into their joint and most mature consideration; for, although two of the Physico-politico may not be able to attend personally they have promised in that case to send their Proxies, conformably to the rules of the Highest Practice!
