"ThOse we POlked in ~
We'll Pierce in 81"

Is the burden Of "Song" printed, but no,
sung, by the Democracy. Whenever we see
it, we are reminded of the old proverb, "If a
man cheats me once, be the shame his ; if he
cheats me twice, be the shame mine." The
confession Of having cheated the people in "a,
is unnecessary: they understand it; and they
have no intention of having the game repeated
at their expense.
The Pennsylvania Tariff men were Polked,
It's true; but their interests need no additional
Piercing from the same party.
The hatcrs of Slavery in Ohio and New
York we're PoIked with Silas Wright's opinion
that they would curb that evil: they have not
the notion, now, of Piercing themselves with
the same folly again.
Vessels on the Western Rivers and Harbors
have been Polked about against snass and on
sand bars and rocks, enough, at present; if the
people there wish the system continued, they
will be Pierced through with greater sorrows-
which we think they don't intend to do.
The veteran leaders of the Democracy were
Polked one side in "a, and as to being now
Pierced upon the wall, and there ransfxed as
defunct specimens of Old Fogies, they wont if
they are not fools.
No, no, Messrs. Polk-ites and Pierce.ers!
your design is too transparent; the people of
your party did not appreciate your system, Ell
ther in 4s or in choosing the convention of
81. Your only excuse is, that like the old
maid who took very Indifferent man for hus-
band, saying, "a poor husband is better than
none," you agreed upon Pierce, rather than
have no candidate, and resolved to ago through
the motions" trusting that
