WRirrEN BY A LADY OF WASHINGTON, IN 1882, PEND
ING THE SECOND ELECTION OF GEN. JACKSON.
When late in the Chamber of Council we stood
Hope rose at the noble display; [land,
Our eyes beamd they scand each strong prop of the
But they rested on Senator CLAY.
Halfhorse-algator-w whatever he be,
With mouth capacous as brain,
He can turn back the tide, or draw to his side,
Sans maggie or legerdemain.
When chivalrous brothers, the sons of the South,
Drew the brand with more passion than reason,
He spoke, and his word put sheath on the sword,
And calm'd them--at least for a season.
If ever at falkland error is found
Inherent in every station
Twas only a slip-he ne sr gaze up the ship,
But held fast the Flag Of the Nation.
The present incumbent is honest-was brave
"a little too much decision of TONED
With heart and true, and head that might do
Would demagogues let him alone.
But swarm Of vile insects buzz, buzz round his ears
That would barter their country for gain;
He can't their wing, but the State feels their sting
And it courses through every vein.
To set things to rights, now out of repair,
Twill needs take old Harry himself to be there;
Then glory to the palace and Presidents chair
We all shall be happy when Harry gets there.
