WINTER Is COMING

WIN Eh ID CUNNING.
Ye maidens fair, yourselves prepare,
Winter is very near:--
Wrap up your ears, my pretty dears.
Winter is coming.
Within triee, upon the ice,
And over sleet and SHOWS,
To freeze your toes and nip your nose,
Winter is coming.
Ye msidens old, ard every scold,
Lock, lock your parlor doors,
To soil your floors with shells and cores.
Winter 10 coming.
A noted quiz you know he 10,
Peeps through each crevice, whisii--
Ply. ply the list! let none be missed,
Winter is coming.
The ssucy chap ne'er stops to rop,
But whisting rUshes I'M
Through thick and thin, his way he'll win,
Winter is coming.
Ye lasses all, before We fall
In love with beaus, be ~ise
To tell your lies, and eat your pies,
Winter is coming.
Grandmother! dnrn-a ball of yarn
Keep constant at your side,
With hasty stride, and long to 'bide,
Winter is coming.
Ye turkies run, or you're undone
Geese, ducks, and pigs so small,
Ye'll rue this Fall-to roast ye all,
Winter is coming.
Now pull the plug and fll the mug,
And blow the FIRE a blast:
With brow o'ercast, and fierce and fast,
Winter is coming.

Think Of this gradual consumptive de.

culture Of our country. Yet there IS no
defect in our institutions we stand ele-
waited in the eyes Of the world for capacity

vessel she sends to New York, buys ons
of our vessels, takes il home, and puts 1t
on stocks, as model TO build after. Does
she want steam vessel, New York is
the place that she sends to for one. Is
cotton factory wanted, America furnishes
il. Does Prussia want a mill 10 grind
her grain with, she sends to Rochester for
it, and b Baltimore Tor an engineer and
machinery. When Austria wants loco.
motive, she sends straight to Philadelphia
to get one. When Egypt wakes up from
her Pharaoh-like sleep, and finds that her
bull mills are not the best ia the world,
she sends here Tor steam engine. When
Texas wants machinery, she sends to
Lowell and Patterson for it. And even
England-when England wants loco
motive she sends to Phladelphia-desr
Phladelphia-sister Philadelphia, send
one over TO US, for we eau build nothing
to equal it. Laughter and applause
Oh then protect your laborers-pro.cct

Lord j. Russell understood that officers Of hel
