4 Hombre Epitome of Mr. WifITIIIIEAD'S Speech on hie
Opening of Parliontent, Nov. 8, IS 14. •

Mr. SPEAKER--.AT no one is by,
Disposed on this subject to chatter,
You'll think it uncivil if I • •
Don't say a few words on thd matter.
First, why are we call'd here so early?
For cash;—Mister VAN do not mash it,
'Twill make the town all burly burly, -
If you should want courage to ask it.

Rum ti iddity iddity,
Rtkukti iddity ido.

Of the war we now wage I'm not loth
To tell you I think it a shame,.
The Mover and Seconder both
Should throw on the Ya'nkies the blame;
'Twas CANNING'S fault only, and now
I'll say what I said to his face;
And I'll kick up a bit of a row,
Since in—he is out of his place. _

Rum ti, &c.

ilTho is CANNING I gladly would learn, •
And for teaching will any one thank, •
That It 4v it should conic to his turi►, .
To hold an Ambassador's rank, Sir. •
While I must keep bellowing here,
His road to preferinent!s made shorter,
He gets fourteen thousand a wear,
And leaves the to fume with my porter.
-Rum ti, &c.

Abroad he may touch up his. rhyme,
But I've yet a more forcible rub,
He " the hist'ry" may write " Of his time,"
In the manner of Bone, and Bub.
Tice death of Ross is an event,
Which with Dat:M*MoNDIS I needs nra3t deplore, Sir,
BmtcLAY's defeat I lament,
But for Washington's capture much more, Sir,
Rum ti,

By beating the Yankies, be sure
We lengthen the war with their nation;
So Coco naNE a copy procure
Of gallant Pftevor's Proclamation.
These things and. a late reprimand,
Demand that we of them inquire, Sir,
As burning great MADIsoN's
The writings put all in the fire, Sir, _

Rum ti, &c.

'Notwithstanding the Congress has met,
The Continent will not be quiet,
For several nations are. set
On making a terrible riot.
To Saxony some Would advance,
• With the cursed Don CoSsaa.'s fierce ".hurrah!"
And some, as they BONEY front France,
From Naples would bundle pout. MURAT,
• Rum ti, &c.
•

I wonder the.late restoed Kings
Some reason have not elninc'd to gain, Sir;
What wretched contemptihle things • •
Are those of France, Holland, and Spain, Sir.
As some of them liv'd here so long,
And to hear our discussions w.are fret, Sir,
It needs, must be oWn'd they were wrong, •
Not to come and learn wisdom from me, Sir.
Run► ti, &c.

King FnitnY, though long out at school,
With. BON F.Y. it seems, no good taught is,
Or else he would not play the fool,.
•
By,sending to quod all the Cortes.,
It has much to do with the addrer.3,
But lately, when MINA was caught, Sir, •
King Louts sent. orders express
That he might be off-swift as thought, Sir.
Rum ti, &c,

Now pray let me ask if our rhino,
Of Fr.RDy supports the amhition,
If so, then, Sir, we (thit's all I know),
Support the ahhored Inquisition.
'Tis hard we must pay for i: there,
For Spain, or the Pontiff of Rome, Sir,
'WhiIP Ireland we drive to despair,
By not not setting up one at home, Sir.

Rum ti, &c.

Now to wind up and finish my song,
The address made me speak till this minute,
Nay, ford me my roar to prolong,
As ?one of these things arc nsm'd in it;
To flight I've' put half of your number,
The attendance I would not make thinner,
Those present may wake from their slumber,
The others come in from their dinner.
Run) ti, tze..
