BUBBLES OF 1825.
TUNE-46 Run, neighbours, run."

(From the John 80, April 3.)
Run, neighbours, run, you're just in time to get a share,
In all the famous projects that amuse John Bull ; •
Run, take a peep on 'Change, for anxious crowds beset us there,
Each trying which can make himself the greatest gull.
No sooner arc they puff 'd.than an universal wish there is
For shares in mines, insurances, in foreign loans and fisheries :
No matter where the project lies,
so violent the mania,
In Africa, New Providence, Peru, or Iknosylvanhi !
Run, neighbours, run, you're just in time to get a share,
In all the famous bubbles that amuse John Bull.
Few folks for news very anxious at this crisis are, -
For marriages, and deaths, and births, no thirst exists;All take the papers in, to find out what the prices are
Of shares in this or that, upon the broker's lists.
The doctor leaves his patient—the pedagogue his Lexicon,
For mines of Real Monte, or for those of Anglo-Mexican :
E'en Chili bonds don't cool the rage, nor those still more ro-
mantic, sir,
For new Canals to join the seas, Pacific and Atlantic, sir. .
Run. neighbours, run, you're just in time to get x share,
In all the famous bubbles that amuse John Bull.

At home we have projects too for draining surplus capital,
And honest 3laster Johnny of his cash to chouse ;
Tho' t'other day, Judge LithOT T gave a rather sharpish slap
at all,

And EL DON launched his thunder from the upper House.
Investment banks to lend a lift to people who are undone—
Proposalsfor Assurance--tbere's no end of that in' London ;
And one amongst the number, who in Parliament now press
their Bills,
For lending cash at eight per cent. on coats and inexpressibles.
Run, neighbours, run, you're just in time to get a share,
In all the famous bubbles that amuse John Bull.
'No more with her bright pails the milkman's rosy daughter
works,
A Company must serve you now with milk and cream;
Perhaps they ',:e some connection with the advertising Tvater..
works.
4- . • .
That promise to. supply you front the linipeJ stream.
Another body corporate would fain some pence and shillings get,
By selling fish at II ungerford, and knocking up old Billingsgate;
Another takes your linen, when its dirty, to the suds, sir,
And brings it home in carriages with four nice bits oeblood, sir.
Run, neighbours, run, you're just in time to get a share,
In all the famous bubbles that amuse John Bull.
When tireenwich coaches go by steam on roads of iron railing,

How pleasant it will be to see a dozen in a line ;
And ships of heavy burden over hills and valleys sailing, sir,
Shall cross from*Bristol's Channel to the Tweed or Tyne.
And Dame Speculation, if she ever. fully bath her ends,
Will-give us docks at Bermondsey, St.'Saviour's, and St. Ca-
therine's •
While side long bridges over mud shall fill the folks with Nvon-
der, sir,
-And lamp light tunnels all day long, convey the Cocknies under,
sir.
Run, neighbours, run, you're just in time to get a share,
• In all the famous bubbis that amuse John Bull.
A tunnel underneath the sea, from Calais straight to Dover, sir,
That qualmish folks may cross by land from shore to shore,
With sluices made to drown the French, if e'er they would
come over, sir,
Has long been talk'd of, till at length 'tis thought* monstrous
bore. . .
Amongst the many scheming folks, I take it lie's no ninny, sir,
Who bargains with the Ashantees to fish the coast of Guinea,
sir :
For, secretly-, 'tis known, that another brilliant view he has,
Of lighting up the famous town of Timbuctoo with oil gas.
Run, neighbours, run, your just in time to get a share,
IU all the famous bubbles that amuse John Bull.
Then a Company is form'd, though not yet advertising,
To build, upon a splendid stale, a large balloon,
And send up tools and broken stones for frish Mac-Adamizing
The new discover'd turnpike roads which cross the moon.
But the most inviting scheme of all, is one for carrying
Large furnaces to melt the ice which hems poor CAPTAIN
PARRY in;
They'll then have steam boats twice a week to all the newly-seen
land,
And cull for goods and passengers at Labradore and Greenland!
Run, neighbours; run, you're just in time to get a share,
In all the famous bubbles th4smuse John Bull.
