Another NE W-V ORK ADDRESS,
“ To all honest hearts and found bottoms."
VE loyalists all, within the town,
I Attend unto my ditty,
You know how oft', with great renown,
I have harang'd the city.
Yankee doodle, &c#
You know full well, from rostrum high.
With seeming genuine steal, fir,
I help'd to raise the patriot cry,
And propt the rebel weal, fir,
But confeious of my former crimes,
And greatly dreading Bow, fir,
I snugly turn'd my coat, by times,
And gently made a bow, fir#
Since hard I've laboured in the cause.
And strove with might and main, fir.
To aid an injured Prince's laws,
And help him out ' again, fir.
For this I'm call'd a traitor now,
And held in great contempt, fir.
And if I'm caught, I fear, I vow,
From danger not exempt, fir.
As this, perchance, may be our fate
From which good heaven defend us,
Stiver Locket Bitot's of , Muslins tamboured;
THE
Tapes.
Razors of the fiift quality,
in cases, with Straps, &c.
Watch Chryftals and
Springs#
Black and white narrow
and broad Lace.
engals and Ginghams.
An effortmint of Ribbands
Pots.
Iron Skillets#
Copper Coffee-pot# and
Skillets.
Brass Candlefticks#
Cast Boxes.
Window Weights*
Bike stones, &'# Also,
Cinnamon, Raifirs in jars,
Philberts, and Almonds
by the Bag-,
S >me hogsheads of extra
ordinary Indigo, wtih
numberless other articles
too tedious to mention.
We need to fear the rebel hate,
But Harry will befriend us.
On British Clinton we rely,
And hope to be rewarded,
The rebel Clinton we defy,
We loyalists are recorded.
You know we told you th' other day,
How what we fear'd was doing,
The French and rebels, in their way,
Great mifehiefs were a brewing.
' Since certain things havecome to pass,
Which prowess could not hinder,'
It is our duty, now—alas!
To dread one more surrender.
Hence one advice I wiffi to give,
We know not what may hap, fir,
Loyal we are, and wiffi to live,
But not in rebel trap, fir.
We all mould keep a (harp look out,
Nor trust to time or chance, fir,
For Washington may be about
Another York Town dance, fir.
With count de Graffe and Rochambeau,
And all the rebel route, fir,
That H?rry himfelf may hardly know
How fafely to get out, fir#
If this ffiould be our wretched ffate,
And this.our cruel lot, fir,
The " civil resort" may fix our fate.
And fend us all to pot, fir.
Better it were to quit the more,
And go beyond the sea, fir,
In Britain they will love us more
Than here we e'er can be, fir#
A gen le prince upon his throne,
With goodness looking down, fir,
Will give us each some beef and bone,
And call us all his own, fir,
There we may, with Galloway Joe,
Partake of royal boun y,
And miniOry too, for aught we know,
May give us each a county.
Should we cross the India seas,
And undertake the job, fir,
We may return when e'er we please,
As rich as great Nabob, fir.
With all these profpeßs, hopes, and feari,
This varied feene before us,
It is enough to draw forth tears,
And make good men deplore us.
As we have join'd the noble cause,
And laboured in the royal,
We all mould feel for Britain's laws.
With hearts most truly loyal.
We mould deplore the fatal day,
Which makes us all so sober,
And so we fh@ld, as well we may,
The rebel month October.
For in one day, fh^rdbels fell,
How fell the great Burgoyne, fir,
On the fame day, we knowfull well,
Cornwallis did tefign, fir.
Eight thousand men, they fay, and more,
Of British-- Heffiari- -mould, fir,
And Anfpach too --the like before,
In story ne'er was tol'd, fir.
Heroes and chiefs, of great renown,
The glory of the nation,
Were forc'd to lay their laurels down.
And march in humble Ration.
What dir^difgrace !—What fatal day §
Does fortune thus deride us!—
And will not Europe, wond'ring fay,
Unfriendly stars do guide us.
With France and Spain, and eke the Dutch,
And a.I the rebels found, fir,
Alack-a day ! —lt is too much,
Rejoicings will abound, fir#
