Why is the solution of the Rebus published last week like a chestnut? Give it up? because it came out of a Burr.
Why is the present administration like the atmosphere? Because it is supported by the Globe.
Why is the Boston Advocate like a watch in good order? because it is wound up.
Why is the town of Warren like the Little Bear? because it contains the Northern Star.
Why is the Constitutional Convention like Sam Patch's leap? because it is a hazardous concern.
