ANOTHER TERRIBLE ENGINE OF
DESTRUCTION!!

We hear a great talk now of " Warner's" invention,
And surely it seems to create great contention :
But how great is the evil, in my way of thinking,
To praise up a man for " destroying and sinking.',
Some say 'tis a dupe—others think it quite clever,
Some laugh at the trick, as a fruitless endeavour;
But whether he fails, or should chancemtodel.xocel,
Yet he carries, we own, an "invisible
But "another Great Engine"
-
is now on the tapir,
Which Warner's inveutionefoortuablelincts
otsppinsicones :
Its merits, well backed by p
Will spread like the lightning around the dominion.
The "Inventor" Is known as a friend to the nation,
He,is own'd as superior to all in his station ;
One feature likewise in his "secret's" surprising,—
The :..public" receive all the "profits" arising !
One spark from his brand—and monopolists all
Roceive such a shock that they totter and fall ;
Their "systems" exploded—deserted—follorn—
Whilst from records of "cheapness" their annals are torn.
Oh ! this is the " terrible engine" for beating—
The " battering ram" from which all are retreating,
And " I-IYAM." who rules it, deserves approbation,
For the good he achieves is beyond calculation.
In preference, then, to this Warner's invention,
Is " HYAM'S" benevolent far-famed intention :
Ills " saving in Clothing," to my way of thinking,
Deserves more applause than "destroying and sinking!!"
