ALnsHorsr RErorr.-The age ofpoetry ia not gone
for sser Homer is dead-yrel is dead-Horace is
desd-Shakspcsre is dead-Scou i doad-Byron is
dead-bo, the spirit Of poetry YET remains. The
Almshouse Repor, just published IS one Of the great
est poems in any language. Tho Illiad is only sub
hme-the Eneiad only bcautful-the Paradise Lost
only terrible-but the Almshouse Report, Of 1897,
combines all these poetic beauties in one. It's the
great heroic poem Of paupers, pigs and postry. y
shews that the end and aim Of our social fnancia
and political systems is to erect palaces for paupcrs
provide them with good food-and take particulsS
care of the honest cows and interesting pigs.
A full review Of this remarkable posiical production
will be given in day or two Alderman Hoxe and
his little clique have some merit. They will immor-
talIze them selves the founders Of new school in
poetry" the psuper school" No matter Il costs
the city $4,000 more per snnum, than ever the
slpshouse did before. The poetry Is worth tht
mepey.
