0, l am sad and dying
Gloom wraps my heart about;
hear n low voice signing,
"Thy soul is going out
30, it has hoped ga inst sorrow,
And frownei despair away
But ever has tomorrow
Been sadder than to-day
"They told thee, proud endeavor
Would build thy name on high;
That hope is gone forever
They wronged thee-thou shalt die J
"Tby early promise given,
Was but the springing leaf;
The flower must bloom in heaven
Earth's seasons are too briefp

THE PRESIDENTS PROGRESS.
EI- A Patriotic Poem.

+
BY PLUTARCH PUFFER.
1sT--Stowing hoy and nth iotops His Ercelef,cl
SET out for the Old Dominion.
ALAI .t4 a l. HfE .eHEs...
When King and Queen their subjects visit,
very splendid pageant is it,
And papers puff and poets sing a.IH
The doings Of the Queen and King.
Shall Royalty have all the praise,
And no one tell the toandering ways
OF Libertyi 1 now present a.sasg
The progress Of our President!
III,
Whate'er account the papers give
Is only prose, which cannot live;
While would, to the latest time, .r
Hand down the chronicle in rhyme.
w.
Moreover, Editors, they say,
Write so and SO, as led by pay;
No Poet Laureate am !, a.
But love the truth, ana scorn TO lie.
!" Republics are ungrateful;" 20
is not a certain one know,
Which, If it err at all, may be
A little { other toay, you see.
VI.
The President has friends and foes,
AS everybody has, God knows!
I'll therefore choose from praise and blame,
And give the truth to deathless fame
VII.
With observations of my own,
To all the world beside unknown;
Though how acquired, is my affair
You must admit their lifelike air.
e a.Ht4 IA. e0EE VIII.
1t was day Of August hot: .
The President up early got,
And shaved, and washed, and then did he
Look out to see what he could see.
The dusty trees, the Avenue,
Were all that met his anxious view;
But presently he heard coach
With rafting, fiery speed approach:
And then another; then the twain
Drove up; the drivers drew the rein,
The footmen jumped, the doors flew wide,
The visiters stepped forth with pride
In majesty, Of course, superior,
First came the Honorable Interior,
Who gloried at his management
To show around the President!
XII. tM
Virginias son had argued thus:
an take him down TO visit us;
The Old Dominion boys will stare,
And me clever lad declare
XIII.
"why Sandy will they say, "indeed,
Is such man as must succeed
See what fayorite he is! -..M .#
How strange we never dreamed Of thisl" y
XIV.
So Sandy smiled, and then his thought
Went on: "Poor Dickon's sold and bought
he get virginia's yote-oh, DEAR
But shall win by't never fear"
XIV
Now spare me, friends your dread reproaches,
For having left SO long the coaches;
And instantly wheel about"
