Hackneyed RHYMES.

A friend says: ''In a volume
recently publishe d. I was looking ovel
a poem written in alternative rhymes
when / anne to a lineending with the
word childhood The rhyme to this
said to myself will, I am perfectly
sure be wild wood Itwas so. Ever
since Campbell wrote his Exile Of
Erils wild wood has been the
invariable and il Inevitable rhyme fol
Fchildhood.' There is no escaping it;
the two terms stick together like
substance and shadow. A friend Of
mine, an enteprising youth, who
makes notes from the magazines,
assures me thatIhe has already col
lected seventy-nin e instances mwhich
childhood has ragged wild wood
into the verse by the head and
shoulders, and has great hopes Of
making the list a hundred before he
is finished.
What I wish to state III trough your
j journal, for the benefit. of my dis
tressea eountrymen, the American
poets, is, that they are submitting to
d necessity which exists only in
Imagination. There are plenty Of
rhymes for childhood quite as good
ih every respect, as the one which
they are in the practice of putting
to such hard service. Here is an
e ample4 a little poem, the name of
which | have not yet decided upon.

"There, | make over these rhymes

is wanted, will you please to say
that they can be furnished from the
quarter. / shall be amply paid

verses about childhood will discharge

PUN AND FANCY
The Hot Season.


The folks that on the first of May,
Wore winter coats and hose.
Began TO say, the first of June,
Good Lord !! how hot it grows
Al last two Fahrenhei,s btewup II
And killed two children small,
And one thermometer sho, dead

Now all day long The locusis sung
Among The leahess trees: II
Three hew hotels warped inside ouI;
The pumps could only vheeze;
And ripe old wine, that twenty years
Had cobwebbed DER in vain,
Came spouiirs through the rotten corks,
Like Joly's best Champaignel
The Worcester locomotives did
Their "trip in half an hour; !
The Lowell cars ran forty miles
Before they checked the power;
Roll-brimstone soon became drug,
And locoiodos fell;
A asked for ice; bul everywhere
Salpeler. was TO sell.
Plump yen Of morning, ordered tights,
Bat, ere The scorch Ing moons,
Their candle-moulds had grown as loose
As Cossack panlaloons!
The dogs ran mad--men could no. Try
If water .hey would choose;
A horse fell dead--he only left
Four red-hoI, burning shoes! II
But soon the people could not bear
The Slightest hint Of fire; N
Alldsons To caloric drew
: A flood Of savage ire.
The leaves OF heat were all torn on,
From every book at school,
And many bIackguards kicked and caned,
Because they said--"Keep COOL"
The gas light companies were mobbed;
The bakers all were shot; !
The penny press began to saIk
OF lynching DR.. Non;
And all about The warehouse steps,
Were hungry men IN droves,
Crashing and spiniering through The door
To sn ash the patent stovesl
The abol ilon men ard maids
Were tanned TO such a hue,
