THE NATIONAL GUARD.

The visit from France ef the National Cat and
Is a capital theme for the mercantile bard,
Who, with every good Englishman, heartily cries
" Three cheers for our neighbours and friendly allies."
The National Guard, from accounts that are written,
Seen highly delighted at visiting Britain.
And wherever the good ;allic strangers have been,
They've declared themselves pleased at the sights they have seen.
The writer of this being present, for one,
When the National Guards came to MOSES and SON,
Can attest to the pleasure which each seemed to show
As he wond'ring stroll'd through the mighty depot,
Nat one of the visitors failed to admire
The shops set apart for the sale of
ATTIRE.
They noticed the mart in its business design,
And they noticed the dress, which they thought very line.
At the sight of the fashioas each heart seemed to glow
(And Frenchmen are judges ef fashion, you know),
And every oxe gave the peculiar shrug
Oa seeing the Over-Coats, stylish and snug,
ay the
a guard did I notice but seemed to be won
the elegant dresses of MOSES and SON.
After they inspected the prime
HATS AND CAPS,

• —eh you'll imagine come time would elapse,
tnd I scarcely need say that the National Guard,
.n seeing the goods, stared remarkably hard,
Such indeed was the case, end I didn't see one
Rho gave not due credit to MOSES and SON.
They next made their way to the prime
BOOTS AND SHO
Which of coarse they had no disposition to lose,
And here (for I judge from the shrug and the start),
.They were equally pleased with the grand City Mart,
Aad I certainly thought they were " sensible Sirs,"
Vfhen I saw how delighted they were with the
FURS.
" Well done, Messrs. Moses ; well done," said each man
(I give the translation as well as I can),
And having applauded these winter affairs,
They looked at the
OUTFITS AND HOSIERY WARES,
Which goods pleased them well, as the others had done,
And caused them to compliment MOSES and SON.
And be it remembered that, after inspection,
Each one of the "Nationals" made a selection.
Many thanks. gallant Guards, for your liberal aid,
With warmth is this public acknowledgment made,
And with this very view did the mercantile bard
Select for his subject the " National Guard."

E. MOSES and SON invite especial attention to their Shooting-
coats, which possess a peculiar cut and style, adding much comfort
ht the it. E. M. and S. are convinced they will be much approved
of by the public.
