"What's in q Names''


With ship new rugged and crew all Hale, :
And choicest stores for use.
From Adams TO the present time,
No voyage was ever planned
With crew and passengers more prime,
Or Briggs more neatly Manned.
The sparkling Brooks have furnished Fish
The Hunter with mis- Hart;
The HEM, choice and savory dish,
The Butler will impart
And etmerry as marriage Beu'' iifasl.
They'll pass the "live long day;'' 5 agG#
No Badger Burro,os in his cell X a.d
More free from care than they. aa -a
And thus rugged out they'll Chase away
Dull care in every form,
And have perfect Holladay,
In spite of Sno,o or storm. -aa
And though through pleasures they may Ydds
They love the Church,ceH too; -
And they've Dean already made,
To teach them what to do.
If mischief should be set on Foot, as
AS sometimes is the case, LOS E1#s .
re DIS in pickle for the brute % EEa
The Bayiy's in his place, @5ta#
If such reproof should not suffice ar -a
81 To keep the rogues in check, gsargaa.
g There Is one more the Jaw applies E sr
Ills Gable round the neck. ot -r.lr
This crew, whatever be their cheer,
Must needs have pleasant labors,
For, whatsoever course they steer, E
They're sure of first rate Nabrs.
Music hath power to melt the heart
The SaO1ge hearts of Stone at.r -~.-rr
Till rayished BY the Harper's art, a
Ali mingle into one. I'd z5z7ras
Some fear that if their time should lag,
THEY'LL Gamble ii away:
And at their fav'rite game of Bragg
May be induced to play.
And there are ime who apprehend
They'll drink their cares to sleep, --
For 'gainst the "Maine laws they contend,
And Meade and Porter keep.
i And often, as their glasses fail, -aF'" ,z1
They call for one Gilmore; a 'a 81 st..
And while such customs shall prevail J.
Hotoe can they give it DER?
This ship, it will not be denied, .t
Has got motley crew @ ar g..
For King and Queen sit side by side .~ ...J
With men of every hue.
All shades and coors here are seen,
From dusky Broicn to While, .5-
With dapple Grey and bottle Green,
Fantastic if not Bright.
Alltrades and callings, far and near,
Promiscuously mingle;
The Cooper and the Cartier here
Meiodiously jingle.
The Mason and The Miner too,
The Fuller and the Miller,
Will find enough of work to do, H
Ii not enough of "siller.''
The Taylor, with bis goose in hand,
His thimble and his shears, E..
Will Gu all rente except on land, aa
And such as conscience wears

The Walker takes his usual round
To exercise his sstrotters,''
And well he guards the public ground
To keep away the "squatters
This crew will find enough to do,
Already now begun; -s..-
And that should be the first put through
That's aiken to be done.
But there's disposition shown,
Among this gallant crew,
To Dodge all matters but their own
And let them all slip through.
If that should be, some pointed Penn
Should give the rogues Tuck,
And make them Smart like honest men,
Till they're in better luck.
IT'S said each man has got his Price, a
Like goods Kept in store; F
Some very cheap, some very nice,
Some costing less. some Moore.
w nile many men penurious Grosc,
And held their manhood Cheap Euf
Some Goodrich men, perhaps for show,
Are found among the heap.
"Where none are beaus,'' the poet writes,
IT'S useless to be bellies"
But here, though one Gaylord invites,
No lady gay here dweis.
In Riddles though they don't abound,
II still must be confessed
That some things are 80 by the sound
An Eastman from the West
This is no "fiibustering' horde ftE
VI lawless men and grim; law
For though an OuttasU is on board. .Er5.E
The law looks out for him. iaraEIa
The Gentry that compose this band
Have all their certain dooms,
Their Shields and Mace cannot withstand,
They're destined for the 1oom6s.
Inc gallant captain, 90 we'll skilled,
10 coon to step on shore; 3c lH
Ills place with credit he has filled, -s5
And trust he may FiLLmoRE.
