dlebury, Thursday evening Feb. 22d.
r.5 1t was stated that at the meeting Of
the Young Mems Temperance Society after
the late SESSION of the County Court, at which
the Report was made by its Committee OF
the success ofIhe Society's Memorial against
The granting OF licenses by the Court, one Of
thecounsel for the applicants was present, and
warned the Society, with some feeling, that
reaction would take place, that people
would not submit to be driven over by the
car of Juggernaut. \ member present, a
mechanic by profession, the printer in fact
OF tins paper, interposed, saying it is not
ire or Mort IS No JUG - The expression
was caught at by a Washing;onian verse-na-
aer, and made the subject of the song.
4 good part of the Joke " as hat Tie learn
Ell counsel himself was present at the celebra-
ton, & seemed disposed TO enjoy as well as any
body the beueloent progress Of his car Of
terror The singer, at the same time, remind
ed the Wing portion of the company that the
tune would be familiar to them as a remnant
Of the era of 1910, when they had sung it to
what was called the Whig National Anthem
Of Tippecanoe and Tyler too'-and called
upon all who were disposed present TO unite
III the chorus.
o what can mean this agitation
Taton-up-hll and down.
Il is the cup, it i, the pot,
II is the CAR ofJCG-oR-NoT-
It is the CAR Of JUG-oR-Nor,
And its wheels will crush every glass
Glass-glasses used to pass;
And its wheels will crush every glass.
Here from the roadside daughter,
Danghter-weepins but glad;
Her father bottle she has got
To put under the Car Of Jug-or-Not,
To put under the Car Of Jug-or-Not-
And its wheels will crush every glass,
Glass-gasses we used 10 pass;
And its wheels will crush every glass.
The ladies are plenty that behold her
Hold her-weeping for Dad;
And all their decantcrs out have brought,
As pavement fit for Jug-or-Not.
Apayement fit for jug or-Not--
Aai its wheels viii crush every glass
Gass-glasses we used to pass;
And its wheels will crush every glass.
The Minister brings his toddy cup,
Cup-with no toddy in:
ltis not the Bee when his wood we got,
But it is the Car Of Jug-or-Not,
Iii the Car Of Jug-or-Not-
And its wheels will crush every glass,
Gass-glasses we used 10 pass;
And its wheels will crush every glass.
The Lawyer brings his Clients cup
Cup-and asks 10 FILL
Let him Gil it himself the ftp he's got
We ask no fees fer Jug-or-Not,
We ask fees for Jug-or-Not;
And IFS wheels will crush every glass,
Gass-glasses used to pass;
And its wheels will crush every glass.
APensiye worshipper is the Wing
Whig-sartin for Clay;
Hard cidec viii save him some apples that rot,
Nor hinder the progress of Jug-or-Not,
Nor hinder the progress of Jug-orNoti-
But its wheels viii crush every glass,
Glass-glasses used TO pass;
But its wheels snail crush every glass.
And cunninger is the Loco-foco--
Foco-of the Van Buren, school:
Each voter is welcome TO go to pot,
Or tug at the Car of Jug-or-Not,
Or tug at the Car of Jug-or-Not-
As its wheels shall crush every glass,
Gass-glasses We used to pass;
And its wheels shall crush every olas,.
The Churchman has another MOTTO
Motto-no wine, no Bishop too!
His cannon was charged with apistol shot.
To cripple the Car of Jug-or-Not,
To cripple the Car of Jug-or-Not-
But its wheels will crush every glass,
Glass-glasses we used to pass;
But its wheels will crush every glass.
The river Gauges is full of water.
Water-and so are other streams;
Wen drink at their brim from hands all hot,
That handle the ropes of Jug-or-Not,
That handle the ropes of Jug-Or-Not-
When Its wheels shall crush every glass,
Glafs-glasses we used to pass;
WHEN its yhe4la hall er,.h a-.rr ci...
