HOLLAND GIN!

From the Cumberland Civilian.
HOLLAND GIN!
OR, THE ToPER's LAST LAMENT.
lis all my mouth is wat'ring for, it's pure as it is
sweet,
But not ftp is in my fob, or friend upon the
street,
Yet, oft as have gulph'd it down, mid noisy frol-
ick's din,
Oh my throat, my throat is husky, for a glass of
Holland Gin.
Now ranged upon glit'ring shelf, with Brandy,
Wine and Rum,
Within cut decanter bright as mute as am
mum;
The sparkling Deeds that lie concealed within this
tempting sin,
Will bubble for some other lips, that love pure
Holland Gin.
I sometimes think of former days, when wealth and
friends were mine,
How oft they to sup with me, and ask them
selves to dine;
Then, oysters, snipes and canvas backs, like gor-
mand they stuffed in,
And washed them down with burgundy, OR pure
old Holland Gin.
Those supple Friends, who cringed like dogs, to
have me do them grace,
Now cross the sreet,>or pass me by, with cold adj
verted face;
They led me on with de'sh wiles, thro' every grade
of sin,
Till pride and honor, wealth and health-are lost
in Holland Gin.
My west of England wool-dyed black, is now with
out Skirt
My pants the pride of Dryden's shop, will scarcely
hide my shirt;
My crownless hat was Keeval's boast my boots
Peck's best calf skin,
Are soleless now and bootless too through love of
Holland Gin.
Hyperion curls once frontled DER my forehead
broad and white,
Where elin locks in tangled mass, are now per-
feet fright;
worn and thin,
Are emblems of the ceaseless thirst l have for
Holland Gin.
They drove me from their glitt'ring bar, am not
welcome now,-
Where once they met me with smile, and served
me with bow;
No boon companion smirking comes with friend
ships hollow grin,
To hob and mob and drink with me, glass of
Holland Gin.
My couch is in the market house, beneath butch
er's stall,
Or in a friendly lumber yard, or where chance to
fall,
No friendly hand is stretched to aid of all my kith
or kin,
They the victim sot of pure old
Holland Gin.
All! where was Green's reforming hand, or Father
Matthew then,
To pluck from the gamblers room, or drunk
ards filthy den?
Oh, where were friends whose good report did
not strive to VIM
They've left me with the growing ills that wait on
Holland Gin.
l sink beneath burning thirst, tremble for
glass, I
But my cash and credit both are gone I'll stretch
me on the grass:
And when the sexton digs my grave, he'll say as l ,
roll in +
"Alas, poor DEVIL he is gone, he dies for Holland
Ginn'
My requiem will thus be said, when all my griefs
are DER,
When earthly ills and earthly wants shall trouble
me more;
But-there are thoughts of other woes the punish
ment of sin,
That makes my thinking soul recoil, and curse old
Holland Gin

His features, once the abode Of health anC

we're coarse and bloated! His cheeks were
of crimson hue, and covered with blotch-

face unshaven, and instead of the brilliant
glance which once shot from his keen black
eye, telling tale of intellectual capacity ant
genius, was seen the stupid idiotic stare
which marks the hdbitual drunkard.
His wife seemed bowed down to the con.

WORM gN8lI45

These LOZenges have now been in use, in
the Southern and Western States upwards on
twelve months, during which time they have
gained for themselves a popularity unprece-
dented in the annals Of medicine. In over
$4,000 cases they have proved an infalIible
remedy for the destruction of those reptiles
within, which are the means of sweeping of
hundreds and thousands ofthe most blooming
children and youth, s~evering the cords of af-
lection, and forever blasting the fondest hopes
Of the parent. So great has their efficacy in
variably proven, that they may well be called
the only certain worm destroying medicine in
use, and the greatest discovery ever made for
expelIing the various kinds of worms that.so
frequently and diStressingly annoy both child
en- and adults. Many diseases arise from
worms and occasion long and intense suffer
ing and even death, without their ever being
suspected. Grown persons. are very often aE-
ficted with them, and are d~octored for vari-
Gus complaints without any benefit, when one
or two doses oftheSe L~ozenges would speedi-
ly cure them. They are a~certain remedy. and
so pleasant to the taste, that children cry for
them, and eat them as readily as a common
peppermint Lozenge. Wherever they have
been used, they have received the most hatter-
ing concentrations from Physicians, heads of
families, and the public generally. Much
more might be said in their favor. of the safe
ty with which they may be administered to
persons of all ages and sexes of the vast ex-
tent and magnitude Of the suffering and death
occasioned by worms; of the im~potency of
most Of the preparations which heretofore
have been presented to the community as a
remedy.
