And feel a inle grand;
Id want little daughter, and
Likewise little son.
And when I'd little time to spare.
Id have li.ie fan.
A little glass; lake ID have.
Well filled with little fishes;
My liule pantry shelves should shine
With little pewter dishes.
Around my cot the little birds
Should tune their lit.Ie throats,
And on little hill should fisk
My little nanny goats.
Id lounge a little after meals.
And take a little ease;
And ifmv little wife should scold,
I'd raise a little breeze.
Id let il rage li!le-then
I'd take little "horn,a
And little snapped go out and hoe
My little field of corn.
rs should want little cash,
I'd take some little pains.
(Since every little trife helps,)
To lay up little gains;
And then I'd smile at little Ills,
Avoid life's little snares,
ENJOY liule paradise.
And laugh at little cares.
These little long ms, though. are il
\ ct Iitils minds they bore, Ivain-
And when a mortal little gets,
He sighs for little more.
Despite the little ballad SAYS.
Or, call ii little song,
"Man wants but little here below.
Nor wants that little long"

entirom this city along with tins immense our nifty of flour
thirteen hundred and forty eight thousand hundred and
thirteen pounds of butter and lard There sent over
two and quarter millions of pounds pearash and other
ashes Now, If the good people the road will furnish
proper "wettng and the place to bake it in, will put
two pounds OF good flour in each foot of cake and lard but
ter and saaratus enough match, and treat them with
continuous Snort Cake fourteen hundred and twenty six
thousand miles, and hundred and eighty rods long.
One end of this cake might be placed in the capital OF
