THE BELLS OF ST.
A NEW YEAR'S NOTIOI.
'Twas New Year's Eve—the last of last December—
Between eleven and twelve, if I remember,
When merily the bells of Aldgate Church,
Told us the year had left us in the lurch;
In other words, they rung with pleasing din,
The old year out, and then the new year in ;
And being rather sleepy at the time,
I closed my eyes and dreamt about the chime.
I fancied I was taken, unawares,
Slap through the gates, and up the steeple stairs;
And having reached the bell loft in the steeple,
Methought the bells could talk like " other people."
The treble bell, while up and down it:swung,
First in the octave wagged its iron tongue :
" Brethren," said he, " excuse your little brother
In rising first—vie understand each sther.
I beg to drop a hint which you'll discuss,
Touching•that mart which faces us;
The Warehouse opposite, we know full well,
Like Aldgate steeple, long has ' borne the bell ;*
And certainly this year before it closes,
Should hear a first-rate peal in praise of MOSES."
" That's right," said Number Two, " we can't do less,
On looking at their quality in
DRESS.
A very wise suggestion, Brother Treble,
And one which we'll adopt without a quibble.
MOSES and SON a merry peal shall hear,
For what they've done in trade the by-gone year.
Ring I Brothers, ring I do justice with your clappers.
To Dress-coats, Frock-coats, Trowsers, Vests, and Wrappers."
" Well done," said Number Three, " you're coming out ;
I quite agree with what you've talked about,
Much might be said in praise of this and that Mart,
But I'm inclined to touch upon
THE HAT MART.
MOSES In Hats and Caps are truly tappers;
And hence we'll advertise them with our clappers."
" Decidedly we will,' said Number Four,
" 11l lend a hand to publish Such a store ;
Nor do I think that any will refuse
To ring the changes on
THE BOOTS AND SHOES.
From what we view, on looking from our steeple,
MOSES' prime Shoes are valued by the people."
This was responded to hy Number Five,
Who felt assured that MOSES.still would thrive.
And In addition hoped they'd nor demur,
In giving one round peal for
MOSES' FUR.
" Tou need not be afraid," said Number Six.
Our peals of praise shall shake these stories and bricks ;
And, doubtless; we shall all of as agree
In praising MOSES'
FIRST CLASS HOSIERY.
They've sold such famous goods throuvhout the year,
That really w • are bound to applaud them here.
" MOSES' PRIME OURFITS,"
sold th• last but one,
An equal credit to the Mart have done."
" Well," said the Tenor. lam pleased to know
That all my brothers value MOSES so.
I quite agree with all of you, and, therefore,
We'll set to work without a.why or wherefore."
Then off they went, quite glorying in their theme,
Aid I awoke and found it was a dream.
E. MOSES aid SON beg to call the attention of Emigrants to
their low lists of outfits, commencing (including every necessary) at
755., lower if required. The list can be had en application, or sent
post free.
