A Happy New Year.

A Happy New year.
ira FROM JONATHAN MUGGs, AT THE MANOR HoUs
MS MASTER IN TOWN.
Honored Sir, have written 10 say
The poachers have taken your game;
The greyhound has worried the rabbits
Your favoriie hunter Is lame
Your aeighbor has entered an action,
The bull dog has bit his pigs ear
NV duty 10 you and the Missus--
Aad wish You happy New Year.
planted the bulbs that you sentus;
They were putting up beautiful shoots
Butt sow cot into the garden.
And rnmmaged them up by the roots
The cider we sade is all spoit-
Fberes singular taste in the beer;
We found we had mashed up puppy
but wish you happy New Year.
LORD Beagle has left you his card;
lie was here with the hunt and the hounds;
They came al fine sappng pace;
But they've terribly cut up the grounds.
AZ seems that they met With check,
the dollhouse had sheltered the deer;
Tvs broken the plants an. the glass,
But wish you happy New Year
The hay wasn't sold at the market
Cause somebody fred The stack.
Old Cheatsm's estates very bad;
And your bill nyon Buggley's come back
don't think you'll ever get sixpence,
find that he's much in arrear;
The man you were bound for has bolted-
wish you happy New Year
NV duty TO Missus. and tell her
The parrot walked out OF her cage,
BY some means laid bold her album,
And picked into bits every page.
Her ne phew hos got in a scrape,
And hopes you'll al once interfere;
Ien sovereigns the barmad Is aSino-
But wish you happy New Year
/ trust Missus finds herself better
q. her terrible winter complaint
(The damp has got into the study
And spoiled a great deal ot the pant)
I'm sorry 10 hear your attack
O the govt has been very severe;
Mr.. Thomson has sunk under his;
Bat wish you happy New Year
On the opposite side of the river.
Just facing the drawing room door
They're beginning so build up a soap ry-
The rops IN the summerhouse floor
The floods have much damaged the piles;
The bricks ne by ore disappear;
The carpenters sent in his bill:
But wish you happy New Year.
| sent, BY The coach, up a basket
Two turki8s Two pbeasaR;s. a goose;
They were all so crushed by the luggage
They really cont seem fit for use
The guard brought 'em back in furry,
Ana said he was tiummoxrc with fear;
Twas all through the man al the office;
But wish you happy New Year.
The servants desire me to give YOU
And Missus, their dutifu word
And hope you will not be down hearted
AT all the mishaps that's occurred
Fer you are an excellent master,
And one that we al must revere
We'd chimney on fire last night
But wish you happy New Year.
p. S. I've had your addresses all posted
They look very well on the wall
Butaeelher candidates started
They say that you've no chance at all.
I'm sorry TO add that the thieves
Last night came visiting here
The only thing taken's the plate
But wish you happy New Year,
