How they were milk-.nai5a. SO g'eesom aad gay,
And tina wh.el loom whiied their hours away
Thus By shsir economy shsir Fathers did thrive
Aud calico dress then Of yards took but five
Tenpora inu,an,e.---how changed is sas ssena:
Instead OF FIVE Only, il takes Hiesn--
The iaxsshes is beoken---tac shuttle is still
The dairy's fo.saksa--- the cow runs =. will
Natures form then deck.d in honcspua alone,
Squeez.d up like wasp, nole ia satin mus, groan.
And muIiass aai -;u.ings and padding. aad lace,
And li,tle .iDs Ia Fou,s'' to rn!:ven the face
To ronping a, balls and parties confined

Bot lovely fair. 'mongss your many defects
You skill those vrtuss---.he pride Of your

And save nay old "inill'' future wh'ckity whacks.
OTe cha p,cr is ended, another begins
A word 10 the GENTRY, their folies and sins.
Cons listen ye aippan,sbeadlsss, whiskare5 asd all
For to srus tale your aitsn,onsl call;

Your Fathers did make them s.als hoosaes's nes','
You then in your ii,tsey rocked III trough,
Tail stouter limbs from the bore you Off
I our Daddy's ins,rIctf3as were then ynIE delight,
BY day in the ii .d---in the cabin by nighi:
But alas. from ID lessons you've wandered away,
In tn, of fashion now seilass stray
To tbs voice of instruction We turn deaf car,
Bu; JeruT,d and Delighted as dandy's appear
Bsstarch'd and betayor'd, and stocked tho chiu,
You,vs all on the outside, and nothing within
All woe to the country where this shall fall,
They mix with It's virtues shn NORWOOD and gall:
Eei ,hi. town peaceful, SO moral and plain,
Is 'adly belaboufcd by you, might and MANI
Yo1r rirtuo,s, pretensiozs at present leave

But DOWN with the gate, thu old mills Oh Tho rack
Aud awhile let i, cease from lis clickty claCk
This hopper is cleared 50 the well drsss,
And start upon politics fresh from the press
In the mill Wing, Conservative, and Tory shall 90
And with ,hsn Globes, Journals, and Daiy's we'll throw,
The gate ngaa hols.ed with crashing and smashing.
Away go the w,sel---she 90 to lashng
Bu, hark! wha.minslcd sounds those,
Which from tie hopper break upon the earl
They are ths ut,e.ancs of coua,Ty's woss-
They the uailings OF her Tyrans's fear:
The mighty voice thar gave our rulers power,
Is raised 10 check them in their mad
I, speass 10 tell them from this very hou-,
Prepare tae DOM which drawe;h near"
A str has risen in Eastern sky,
To guide tia soeInrs of their couniry's good,
Where freedoms banner, ever fu,.eriny nigh,
Upholds the stripes died in hero,'s b!oods
It's growing light shall dim rhe lusd glare
OF wild arnbitoa's Loco-foco sun,
And lead the freeman and the pat7io, thsre,
To speed the work they nobly have begun.
voice cries onward 70 the glorious goal
A country's freedom is the prize nj stake,
\ voice for freedom let it onward roll
Ger hill and pain-tiIl every oenan shake:
Till from his palsied grasp shall fail the ,cfsnd
That thus has raised him 10 his proud estate.
The golden t1lisa,an that gives command,
To lawless ,yrants-o'ef Peoples iare.
The "mill'' has s,opped-and ITS cla'er's DER,
Wen to Patrons say just word more:
To give toll for grinding 50 much news,
Ue pay the nj and we ask OF you.
To give the .DaSl'' wha, you think 'his due.'
