' THE NEGRO BOY!

NEAR Portsmouth, the " Battle of Minden" the sign,
11 An Inn long renown'd for good cheer and old wine,
A handsome young hostess, and excellent lodging ;
An Officer lately came over from France,
No longer in idle attendance to dance,
His occupants Monsieur most gladly disgorging,
This Officer, then, ev'ry comfort ensuring,
At " Battle of Minden' a lodging procuring,
And items of use and of ornament lacking ;
In dress predetermined to shine all resplendent,
Directed, o'er all, that his sable attendant
A quantum should purchase of WARREN'S JET BLACKMON

When, lo! in the Boots, by the luminous shade
Of the Jrr, like a Mirror, his dark feitures glaring;
He geed in amaze, long with extacy mute,
Then laugh'd, as laugh'd with him the Child in the Boot,
And eagerly thence to his Massa repairing ;
" 0 come Massa Captain," he said," come and see
Him live in de Boot—blacky childa as me—
Mush like as my poor leteel bruder him seem,
Him die—him come back—die no more;" and his eyes
Were glisten'd by Joy, when aghast with surprize,
Two" Childa he viewed in the Boot's jetty gleam.
ills Massa the cause of the vision explain'd ;
And now in the youth was delusion restrained, •
His mind Superstition no longer attacking ;
Enhanc'd thence, in fame, is the fine glossy hue
That dress can improve, and dark Error subdue,
Of WARREN'S resplendent, inimited BLACEING!
