This very remarkable man was born at a a very early ape, of distinguished, but pious parents; and it Is said, on coming into the world, he went into (he wailing business ; thus clearly showing that lie was created especially for fighting battles, and wailing his enemies. Becoming tired of wailing, he took a great saucy to the milking business , but in the course of time he became wearied from this, and took lo eradleing for living ; When he was first horn, he had no idea of ever running for President; this remark able fancy not taking possession of him till quite late in me—altogether too late, we fear, to do humans good. It is not positively known whether he is the real original little boy *• Wltli coik-scrcw curls and strong lied Eje, Who never, never, never told a lie,” or not; but in the absence of any other little boy claiming to be the original Ja cobs, we think we may safely say lie was. It was a sad piece of neglect of his stern parent that he never planted a cherry tree and left a hatchet lying around pnmiiseu ously. If lie had, how easy might his son have become the Father ofiiis-country. At an early period of his life, he cut his teeth on a copy of the Constitution of the United States; and a little later on studied strate gy from a cheap edition of the American “Hoyle.” From.this latter hook be learn ed to cut and shuttle iu a remarkable man-. Ijjr. and could make hisuiartnei' ‘believe he "id whenjiVlJ; tke white he. I{4k, tC remarkable' fact, that.' for tin- fbpt two yeays of t liv-04o#adi^iM^*: Ue'kiM*n*t many since. The* t first.' word he did say was “ Wii.-tbtr tf^tj ‘refer/ed to pap known us official, cannot- of course be told. There seems to he considerable doubt ex isting as to what his initials (l ~ H.) stand for; some contending l'or United States, and others for Unsollstirated Sardine.— Neither of these, however, are correct.— They simply stand for L'seless Simpson. Useless, after a celebrated Fenian Emperor, yvas given him by his grandfather, who was a learned historian ; and Simpson is after an uncle, who still carries on business in the Bowery. Useless’ principal amusement in youth was breaking horses and breaking wood ; anti when he was only ten years old he could tell a horse from a mule in about two minutes, and coni I break lb*' smallest quantity of wood of any boy of his age.— One day, when his father had gone away from home, ’his obedient hoy went out trf the barn, and putting the bridle on a tine three-year old colt, took him out in a field for the purpose of breaking him. He broke him in .just three minutes—he broke his neck. For this little jok“ his father llanked him severely. He was always very fond of driving and taking care of spirited oxen, and would do any kind of work with them. He took a team one day, unbeknown to any one, and. going out into the forest, actually hauled enough woo l to make a respectable tire with. With the aid of half a dozen men, he could easily lord the biggest log iu the forest, and, furthermore, he could stand by all day and look at a man chop it up Quite early in life he had his counterfeit presentment taken, and his head examined by a celebrated artist and learned phrenolo gist, who told him lie would undoubtedly one day become President—o: a debating society. From the fact of his telling so ioug beforehand that Useless would become distinguished, this learned phrenologist could not have possibly been a pupil of Fowler & Wells. In the company of other boys, Useless was very quiet and reserved, though on ail desperate occasions he was always selected as the leader. But, to tell the truth’ he cared very little for the socie ty of boys, preferring to associate with horses and mules. There is no truth in the report that he was ever a tanbark student, though he al ways had a great taste for grand and lofty tumbling (a taste, by the way, which he shortly expects to indulge), and at one time devoted all his spare moments to learning to carry water on both shoulders at once, without spilling a drop. Perhaps the report from the following little incident: A circus coming to the place where he lived, he borrowed a quar ter from a fellow horse-tamer and went down to see the show. The Hug-master, some time during the course of the intellec tual and moral exhibition, offered a coun terfeit five dollar bill to any boy who could ride the mule around the ring a certain number of times. Young Useless imme diately accepted the bill, and jumping in the ring, said he’d “ ride that mule around if it took all summer.” Springing on his back, he busted him over the ear, and thou ted to him to go on. The mule imme diately bolted forward, then suddenly stop ped ancl kicked up behind and before, and reared up and tumbled over. But all to no purpose. Like the celebrated Roman warrior, Egregiously Mistaken Stanton, Useless refused to be shook. The ring master, seeing his bill was in a fair way of changing owners, become considerably riled, and at once let a living cyno cephalus loose in the ring. This strange creature immediately jumped up behind young Useless, and got on his shoulders and on his head, and in his pockets, and in front of him, and all around him, and, in fact, got himself so mixed up with him that it was impossible to tell which was the ponkey and which the future great strate- (Tri-tUcchli) CouGtitutioiuilim. gist. However, he won the monkey, and if is said that even to this day the man owes it to him. Having no taste for the tanning business as carried on toward him, by his father, he applied for and obtained admis sion to West Point. Here he was princi pally remarkable as a good eater and sleep er; and, by applying himself closely to his studies, soon distanced all competi tors, and, on gradua ing, stood num ber thirty in 'a class of thirty-one. It is not positively known whether the thirty-first boy was General Sickles or Gen eral Schenck. Lieutenant Useless, as he was now called, fought and distinguished himself in all the battles of the Mexican war ; and, had brigadiers been as plenty then as now, he would in all probability have been reduced to that rank In society. What he did in the late rebel I ion, everybody knows ; and, if they don’t, we advise them to ask a grave digger in lie is at present residing at a small city, called Washington, under the immediate care of a Mr. Washburne, who talks in Congress and knows all. about him, and more, too, and a celebrated canalist by the name of Butler. This latter personage is the same man whom Grant once had a difficulty with about a bottle, and who succeeded in making a beast of himself during the war. These two moralists are going to do something with him, or for him, or for themselves shortly ; but what it is, no one knows. The beginning of the little unpleasantness which has culminated in impeachment found Useless sitting quietly on the fence, with one logon either side, indulging in the luxury of a cheap Rappahannock, and deeply engaged in thought—perhaps think ing of the (very) Low-ell statesman and his bottle. But soon becoming hard pushed, he lost his balance, and tumbled over the mire of Radicalism, where he will in all probability, to use the elegant word of a learned African reconstrnctionist, “ stick.” Useless is said to be a man of great p)luck ; mid from the manner which lie has put up with certain parties at that, small city called Washington we should also say of great endurance. But his ideas of the situation ure Radically wrong; and altogether, we think, he will make a very one-horse Presi dent. Tom iYonder. [From t! e New York “Revolution,” May jjl. Tha Republican Party Dagui rreetyped by a Radical and "Loyal” Pen, Republicans elected Andrew Johnson for party success; they impeached him for par ty success; and since the day the sceptre of power came into their hands, they have worked for party success rather than Lite nation’s life. While they have deceived the people with the cry of constitutional amendments, loy alty, negro suffrage and impeachment, they have shown themselves disloyal to the grand principles ut our government, by their attempts to drug down the Federal Constitution to their -low platform; to force negro suffrage on the Mouth while re pudiating it in the Northern States; and alter proving the President guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors, strangling im peachment with their own hands.

JPUeivmy Bentliam says, “the people can not be too distrustful of their rulers.” — When the American people learn tliaL men and parties are nothing unless based on principle, and that whether under a Repub lican or Democratic dynasty, we have the same results, they will awake to the re sponsibility of self government. As we turn over the pages of history we can sec how nation:}, groaning under taxa tion, ignorance and | overly, have been deluded, blinded and without dreaming that we, ourselves, are to day the thoughtless victims of selfish and crazy rulers, who think only of their own aggran dizement- Just as Rome, with fetes and feasts, with holidays and deadly combat : between man and beasts, with gladiatorial exhibitions in crowded amphitheatres, turned the people’s thoughts from their wrongs—so do our rulers to day, with cau cuses,conventions, campaigns, impeachment trials and the coarse brutality of the press and politicians, amuse the people, degrade the public taste, anti destroy the virtue of the nation. Unthinking leaders inflame the North against rebeidom, and damn every man who dares put in a plea for jus tice and mercy to the Sontji, with the un meaning name of “copperhead.” To rouse the people’s wrath they point them to the bones of their brave sires and sons bleach ing on nil those Southern plains, forgetting that with their own hands tney built that sepulchre where our brave dead now sleep. The chain that held the black boy in the everglades of Florida and the slave girl in a New Orleans market was fastened round their neck by New England’s sons and daughters. Through our avarice and sel fishness the land of orange groves and flow ers lies bleeding and desolate to-day. Blame not the South, but our own constitutions, creeds and codes But while we ended with the sword a slavery of brute force, and overturned the Southern oligarchy, by cunning legislation, we have substituted another form of slave ry in cur own system of finance. lit our national debt and taxation, we have placed the whole labor of the country at the mercy of a moneyed aristocracy of banks, bond holders and land monopolists. Having just escaped from the yoke of 400,000 slav eholders, we are about to bow our necks to the yoke of 400,000 bondholders. Flushed with conquest, these “ High Art Swind lers’’ have bought up the nation’s virtue and choked our prophets who have dared to speak. The Great Sa;xgekfest.—The great musi cal festival which begins <>n the I6th, is (lie newest sensation in store for Chicago. The idea is a German one, but Chicago lias taken hold of it as if with a determination 10 adopt ir, and, ns much ns possible, to make it its own. The journals insist upon it, that the Bsengerfest shall be a regular institution, to be celebrated every year—for, says one of them, with much truth and point— “ We, too, Americans of to day, have much to borrow from the Germans, who have come hither from their older civilizations, and with older modes of thought. We can learn from them that juste milieu between ascctism and bestiality, between a toial abstinence from what pleases ear and eye and lasle, and that reckless indulgence which always lowers,” All trae—and being true, we oi New York can well afford to give the Germans n hearty and spontaneous welcome when they come among us, to repeat the Ssengerfest, on the same scale on which it is celebrated in the Lake City. f Neio York Express.
