; To lend, that's lose, their books,
Are shared by anglers, folks that fsh
With literary hooks:
Who call and take some facorite tome,
But never read it through;
They thus complete their set al Rome,
By making one at you.
j, Of my Spencer quite bcreft,
Last winter sore was shaken;
OF Lamb I've but quarter leis,
Nor could save my 'Bacan.'
And then / saw MY 'Crahhe' At last,
Like IIainlct's backward 90;
And as my tide was eb5ng fast,
or course lost my Rowe
NY sMallei' served to knock men down,
Which maaes me thus talker;
And once, while was out Of town,
My johnson proved walker
While studying DER the fire one day
My Hobbies amidst the smoke;
They bore my sColnian' clean away,
And carried of my Coke
They picked my Locke to mo far more
Than Bramah's psieut worth;
And now my losses deIlore
Without Home on Earth.
II once book you let them lift,
Another they conceal;
For though caught them stealing 'sw;n.'
As swiftly went my steele
Hope is not now upon my shelf,
Where late he stood clated,
But wba; is strange, my Pope himself
Is accommodated.
My little Sucking in the grave
Is sung, % swell the ravage,
And what twas Cruaoe's fate 10 save
Twas mine To lose-a Savage
Even sGIover's Works cannot put
My frozen hands upon;
Though ever since lost my sFoOte,
Ny sBnnyan' has been gone.
My fHoyle' with Cotton went-opprsssed,
My Taylor too, must fall;
To save my Goldsmith from arrest,
In vain offered 'Bayle.'
Prior sought, but could not see
The Hood 50 late in front;
And when turned to HINT for Leo
Oh! where was my 'Lei.h Ilunt:'
/ tried 10 laugh, old Care 10 tickle,
Yet could not Tickle touch;
And then, alack! miss'd my 'Mickh'-
And surely Mickle's much.
sTis quite enough my griefs 10 feed,
Ny sorrows 10 excuse,
To think cannot read my Read
Nor even use my 'Hughcs;'
Ny classics would not quiet lie,
A thing SO f,ndly hoped;
Like DR.. Primrose, may cry
ssMy 'Livy' has eloped."
My life is wasting fast away
suffer from these shocks;
And though fixed lock on 'Gsay,'
There's grey upon my locks.
I'm far from 'Young'-am growing pale
Il see my Butler tiy;
And when they ask about my cal,
'Tis sBuron,'" reply.
They still have made me slight returns,
And thus my griefs divide;
For, oh. they've cured me OF my Burns
And eased my 'Akeuside:'
But all I think shalt not say,
Nor let my anger burn:
For Us they never found me Gay
They have not left me 'Sterne.'

was in labor although days than had been

Prince Albert, whose conduct distinguished by
the most afectionate solcitude, combined with hrm-

Duke of Sussex, it is stated unable 10 attend,

to come from the stud-house at Hampton court, did not

Palace kept in perfect quetness, while all noise
from without, from the passing of bands or otherwise,
was interdcted.
From those who had the best means of information,
we learn that her Majesty evinced a firmness and
composure almost incredble-at intervals exhibiting al
cheerfnness and patient submission to her sufferngs
in all respects consistent with the well known attr
butes of her character The approach Of that in

any fugitive slave to be secured who may be IN

this city and its environs, and they continue to null
tply rapidly.
These being, at hest very unpopular in this
quarter, Che having the Aboltionists the flesh and
the devil, contend with) it will be necessary for
those wishing to his services to forward him
power of attorney, duly executed, and infinitely de
scrptve Of the fugitive and also fee of $50 to deiray
preliminary and contingent expenses. His universal
charge for securing such slave is $780, and all reason
able expenses.
