gARRIIER'S ADDRESS,

To you the worthy Patrons OF the Times"
Your CARRIER sends around his usual rhymes.
Times wheel has turn around the Sun more
And left your CARRIER some things TO deploIe,
What future was. has now merg in the past,
And The Bentonan levers cured at last.
On HowAHp stands the pattern county yet
She she alone is free and out Of debt;
Her Jail's deserted, and her Lawyers dread
The Time may when they may beg their bread;
All will adjust their claims without their aid
And each the other heIpng-teet ceH paid;
Hasten the time, so prays the Glasgow Times
Aud then the Editor will pocket dimes.
Our mint drop Senator OF fame renown,
Has, since my last, aow'd his face 10 rown
His seell tes-eratic in their way
Have deI'd 10 doubt, tho Bullion said his say:
So round and round and here and there he's gone
To speak for Buncomb, and 10 laugh 10
Those who for many years have olIowd strait,
Now roughly thrust him from the Treasury gate
One consolation would your Carrier give,
To the II AM" and that is Qearn and lise)
Act as his brother Wolsey, in old time
Repent-snd ask Editor 10 dine,
You'll find him better company than those

The Presidency you will never get
SO in the Yankee Phrasc--"But do not Ire'
The huulbug Of my last was 'ille" Thumb,
And Of the sight, your CARRIER got crumb:
But the great humbug OF the present day
Will take gold and silver far away;
However | some consolation draw
Missouri will not lose by "Nong tom patv."
The Swedish Nightingale sings fine, doubt,
But few do know what It's she sings about
And paying high for sound shows little sense,
And the high puds we hear-aTe mere Pretence,
Another DER the water large and vast,
And the "psy bills" have il otis well cast"
Queen, Princes, Lords, &c figure there
And its cognomon is, the Worlds Great Fair
Who will be there? you ask, why "a the world
Unless creations into ruin hurl'd.
The 'bird" that sings so sweetly, and her guide
In whom say, she takes but little pride;
Yet she is worth plum IT'S said,
And only lhry-snd she is not we'd
So cross The "Herng pond" ye beaus OF song,
And let her find you in her vocal tlrong.
Barnum will feel behind the times when there,
But he will items tske-ior future fair"

And gain ourselves credit aud renown.

Which have astoni,hd Bullion's corps elect;
And before | OF lime shall go his round

And then despair will seize and hold him FAST
