-co AN OLD CHEST OF DRAWERS.

Hail, ancient Chest ! I never look at thee,
But various musings occupy my noddle ;
For thy respected form was known to me,
Before my infant pegs had learned to toddle.
My daddy owned thee, and I think, the rather,
Thou once belongedst to my father's father.

Think not, old chest, that thou shalt e'er be sold,
Or chopped aria changed away in foolish barter;
To part with furniture so good—so old,
Would make me sorry both before and atter ;
Long in the family ha't thou been of value,
And never h st thou once changed hands, nor shall you.
When but a little fellow, newly breeched,
I owned a part of thee to hold my raiment;
Dress badly cut, and very badly a itched,
And badly purchased for a heavy payment.
Oh, when I think upon th, times departed,
llow glad I feel that Moses ever started.
What different garments dolt thou now contain?
Thy drawers are now enriched by Messrs. Moses,
Who prove that competition is iii vain,
In spite of what it vauntingly proposes.
All thou container t—Trowsers, Coats, etcetera,
Proves Moses,' clothing infinitely bettefer.

gate, Sheffield ; and 19, Thornton's-buildings, Bradford, Yorkshire ;

he Branch Establishments, as above.
