How sad it looks like Desolaton's seat,
Or wandering ghosts terestine retreat,
1t seems deserted like ruins mouldering pile,
Or storm wrecked ship cast on some lonely isle.
Yet stay, what means those letters Ger the door
Eternal powers is this liquor store'
Is this the place of such for reaching fame
That Pandemonium likes to hear its name?
Volcanic hale whence liquid fire doth flow
That sends its victem to the fire below;
Eternal crib, where Satan's self might dwell
To lure earth's tenants TO his native He'll
Yet Satan's selfnee not begin the trade;
His ministers are plenteous, alas, self made,
Whose thirst for gold excels the murders knife
In spite of conscience, God, and human life.
The curse of Heaven hangs DER each damnine
hole,
And natures curse loud rings from pole to pole
And dark. deep graves doth curse each Turing
store;
Widows and Orphans walls do curse them evel
more.
"Not without cause,"-oh! bones of human
life,
Crimes greatest source upon this stage of strife
Eternal foe to religions sacred laws,
Eternal foe to freedoms noble cause.
Eternal foe to wisdoms, virtues bright
Is each dire rebus, more dread than tenfold
might.
Ne'er, er shall earth be ought like Heavens
paradise
While these deep springs of misery DER her bo-

While man for gold such deadly, poisonous
drugs shall sell,
Nor peace, sweet peace hold her celestial reign
Till earth, like heaven, hath not one vicious

1t is pleasant to sit with ones wife,
By the light of a brilliant taper.
While ones dear companion for life
Looks over the family paper
And now and then reads song or story
A marriage, or death. or tragedy CORY
To feel that ones nothing to do
But sit and philosophize gravely;
Each muderous deed to es chew
Applauding the editor bravely.
For his tact and his talent, his taste and his
shears,
Now waking to laughter, now moving in tears.
Oh, happy the man who is blest
With wife who can tastefully read,
Who will give his newspaper no rest
Till its items have all gone to seed
Who exclaims, now and then, as she pricks up
the taper,
My dear, won't the printer want PAY for his
paper.
