He had a large number of relatives whom he
placed in all the fat offices, and though there was some dissatisfaction
with his government, it was generally agreed that he was better fitted
for his position than anyone of the Titans would have been. No one knows
what was the ultimate fate of JUPITER. He was, however, dethroned by the
Emperor CONSTANTINE, and was never afterwards heard of; though it is
well known that the inhabitants of certain inland counties of New Jersey
still believe in his existence, and have not yet heard of CONSTANTINE'S
reformation.

TO OUR READERS.
Many complaints have been made to the Publishers of PUNCHINELLO
regarding the price asked for the paper by news-dealers in some parts of
this city, as well as elsewhere--viz.: Fifteen Cents a single copy.
Now, the price of a single copy of PUNCHINELLO is Ten Cents, and no
newsman has a right to charge more for one, seeing that his profit on it
at the regular price is equal to that made by him on any other
illustrated paper.
