THApY MULLIcAN.

There was lady Iivd at Leith,
Alady very stilisb, man;
And yet, i'm spite of all her teeth,
She fell in love with an lrishinan,
A nasty, ugly Irisbman,
wild tremendous lrishmap,
A tearingyswearing, humping, bumpking, ramp
ing, roaring lrishman.
His face was no ways beautiful,
For with smallpox twas scarr'd across,
And the shoulders ofthe ugly dog
Were almost quite yard across.
o the lump of an Irshman;
The whskey drinking Irishman;
The great he rogue, with his wonderful brogue,
the fighting, rioting lrishman.
One of his eyes was bottle-green,
And the other il out, my dear,
And the calves of his wicked looking legs
Were more than two feet about, my dear
o the great big freshman,
The rafting, battling Trishman,
The stamping, ramping,swsggering staggering,
leathering swash of an Irishmau.
He took so much of Lundy Foot,
That he used TO snort and snuifie-O;
p Aud in shape and size the fellows neck
Was as big as the neck of buffalo.
the horrible freshman,
The numbering, laundering Irshman,
The siashing, dashing, smashing, lashing, thrash
ing, hasang freshman.
His name was terrible name, indeed,
Being Timoty :hady Mulligan;
And wbeneverhe emptied his tumbler ofpunch.
He'd not res, til he filrd it full again
The booz'ng, brs~sing Irshman,
The 'toxicateG Irishman,
The whisky, frsky, rummy, gummy, brandy, no
dandy Irishman.
This was the lad the lady lov'd,
Like all the gi Is of quality,
And he broke thu skulls of the men of Leth,
Just by the way OF iollity,
o the latherng Irishman,
The barberous, savage freshman,
The hearts of the maids, s. the gentlemen's heads,
were bother'd I'm sure by this Irishman.

dy. Poor Lucy said she, $ her sun
set early; but a long dim twilight preceded
lie. Flattered and worshipped by the gay
and gallant throughout the country, whilc
her splendid Inheritance was locked on as
secure. No sooner did the scene change,
and the blight of her fortune come on, than
her admirers dropped away. Neglected
and uunoticed, she retired to the residence
of favorite relative, and pined away, a
sickly plant, until she fell TO ruin. She
died in the season of flowers but there
was not one among all who had paid her
homage in her days of prosperity, found

In his communication, 10 the Legislature, Gov
ernor Shuttle, of Pennsylvania, thus hand
somely aludes to the Nations Guest:
With the most pure and heartfelt de-
light the citizens Of the United States have
witnessed the arrival of the great and dis
tinguisbed friend of our country, General
IA FAYETTE. Having reached our shores
since your last adjournment, you have not
yet had an opportunity of expressing in
your legislative capacity, those sentiments
of affection and gratitude, with which all
classes of the people are animated.-The
vivid recollection of his great and disin-
terested services the manifestation of
feelings, which has so universally prevail
ed, give reason to believe that our friend
and benefactor will receive some evidence
of the substantial gratitude of the Nation.
The means will be for the wisdom of Con-
gress to devise. This desirable result,
might perhaps be promoted, by an express
sion Of the wishes Of the legislatures of
the respective States of the Union. 4
resolution Of the legislature Of Pennsylya-
MIA, with this object, will receive my most
cordial appreciation and concurrence"
