SONNET TO WALSALL.

(From the Anti. Corn. law Circular.)
A stain is on thee, W4lsall 1 A foul blot
Is fixed upon thee ! For thou hast been weigh'd
And art found wanting Honest hearts have pray 'd
For thy success in a just cause. And what,
What bast thou done?
,Upheld a cursed law I
Cherished an incubus upon thy trade I
Nor heard the starving cries of those who made
Thee what thou art. And whilst around thou saw
Thy hundreds famishing; want, misery,
Spread far and wide—lent not a helping hand
Thy country'p, fettered commerce to set free.
Long be those names remembered through the land
With bitterness, who sunk thee low in shame
Blessings on those who strove to raise thee up to fame
