For the Freeman:
To COrrespOnflents: nts:-HOWeVer!


To COrrespOmdlents:-
To those of my suffers, who, wishing of late.
To unite with M. E. in that most happy state
or enjoyment, awarded 70 such as so love
As TO merit the favor of Heaven above,
l have word of caution ere ever can
With safety reply to a ove-sick young man:
If you closely observe it, the language of eyes
Resembles the twinkling Of stars in the skies.
But the former ie caused by electrical fire;
And that is the case, why the great wire,
By which lightning conveys to u parts of the land,
The news ia instant? The time is at hand,
When ''the man at helm," at Telegraph station,
Without Doubt will become con6dsnt Of the nation.
think il is better to trust there, at once:
Besides, who can help calling amy yone-"dunce"-
That vii! pass by Office, where ONE man will know,
To another, where many will not be too slow
In publishing, openly. through ev'ry street
The name of an author to all that they meet!
True, editors MUST be privileged class;
For with them and thsir hslp-mates, find as mass,
Though eyseemin theiFbusness cautious and snug
ThaJ they lean side like one-handled jug
Which soon will keel over, if moved the right way.
In fine, WHOM 1T coNcEREs, will say;
That il will be prudent make "charge d'affars,'
ANY one who is troubled with family cares.
For am not divested of preconceived notions
OF ''the Telegraph Office despite pills and potions;
Ahd.there(ore, all orders intended for NJ. +,
Must be to that place: | am done. Let me see
No. don't want a fellow wrapped up m "sack'
Conveying, snai-like, all his wealth on hls back,
With nought in his wallet, and 'fdiitO' in head:
Ifunired with such, always should dread
Cold weather; if Borras breathe but breeze,
Now amy, expecting to gain my estermr,
Must faithfully follow some calling deem
or importarce; (see, catalogue published by M f.
The rest will be slighted. So Mr. j. c.
Your verdure, Sir, don't talk about;
Your letter proves you "kren,"
But when a woman funces you,
Louk out for something green.
You say you bachelor;
A cotquean too, | trow:
II you should ever visit me,
just START when BID TO GO.
I soon would all intruder drive
Out of mv house or room;
Or pin the dish-rag 10 his back;
Perhaps, take up the broom!
As you have lived these two score years.
A single, useless life,
How can YOU even HOPE to get
A young and charming wife?
Then such comparisons as yours,
Might make a Stole laugh;
For flowers from the ''mky- way"
Would fat an unweaned calf.
I'm. E. you want plot You
Through calms and storms forever,
III pack you in a shaving-hox
And launch you on the river.
You surely have not courage yet
To leave your home aone()
Your moiher, certainly, would fret
To think that you were gone!
So now-a-hem!-don't take it hard
To fnd your suit rejected;
1t is than what you might,
In ason have expected.
To U. S. must reply:
like the mildness of your eye,
But. never knew that this term, 'beauty,'
Could be applied to men. In duty
Your candor binds to express
What would fan conceal, unless
In private. W(h )igs are now in fashion.
(Hope Taylor friends will not get in passion)
Tobacco lips meier could kiss;
The Odor poisons all the bliss;
Which else might be enjoyed,-the candle
i cannot personate,-the handle
With such poor, old, rusty blade,
Would soon be thrown into the shade;
For reven You complaining.
That 'rheumatis' is your quicker pace restrain ng.
This bad complaint, do suppose,
No "DocTOR' can remove. Your nose,
You say, is perfect, and your whisker,
Is elegant; twill make frsker,
If kept till summer. when the flies
Modest the ladies' noses, eyes,
And ears: you may, by their permission,
Then ''fan the flies:' but there is one condition
Which does look we'll; for when
The chin is covered Oer, and then
The mouth is puckered like rabbits,
The man is given to stingy habits.
I've heard that some men have knack
Ofcufting open ev'ry "SACK,''
And 'saying by;'' the heap increases,
Till they, despa.ing, sell on TICK the pieces.
am not from ''New Jersey" to what to you.
Il seems, is disgusting: for stockings of blue
never put on your anger don't vent:
Pm native born Buckeye, of Grrman descent.
Your failings many. good qualities few;
regret. Sir, there is not the least hope for you
There is thing besides uncouth expression
cannot endure; that is-your profession.
What. pedagogue? Mercy! How have you the face
To make the avowal? ! would not disgrace
All my friends, by uniting with one ofa set,
Thai acknowledged mPostors; nay. further, yet,
Why man Of YOUR calling should seek for a wife
With no OTHER pursuit, cannot tell for my life.
A pedagogue. Ell! You. doubt, long story,
Can tell of the arts: perhaps in your glory, N
Like quack in his office. surrounded by 'roots,'
Intent on "extractng;'' or lawyer with suits,
G ute unable to settle the 'seAsL' now sn hand;
Never talking TO profit, but keeping the stand.
You cannot win NJ E by such means. you must know;
Law may be your principal object; if so,a
You may teach as, doubt, many oihsrs have tried
Just carry your book to the sc0cs shona4s ani hide
The same in your desk; while no claks-sS49,
You can read in your OWN book, we'll st htsht.
If law BE your aim, will make amendssA
Though slight you myself, have numeroussfriends
To whom Will recommend YOU So with Us,
G NJ E. never noted for making a fuss;)
FOREVER MUST CEASE. ASK NO BUss!
