What Now. Getting Scared .---Eh:

One of the opposition Organs of Richmond in yes

with an effort to show that the American party is
pro slavery party
If they are proslavery, why is every Congressman
whom they have elected assisted to elect North of
Mason and Dxons line, in favor of the restoration Of
the Missouri Compromise?
And why did this self-styled American party, throw
its entire influence defeat the reelection of the
FoRTY,FIvE Northern Democrats who voted with the
Southern members in the last Congress for the Kansas
Nebraska bill, and for the repeal of the Missouri
Restriction?

The Siege OF Robbery

he Siege OF ROxDerfy.
Onward the Nunnery Committee!
No man was dismayed,
Although the volunteers knew
1t was terrible blunder:
Theirs not to make reply,
Theirs not to reason why.
But to know nothing,
Into old Robbery
Rode the seventeen.
No Jesuits to right of them,
No Jesuits to left of them,
No Jesuits in front of them,
No nothing, but women.
Boldly they rode and well;
With four good horses,
In two omnibuses,
Rode the seventeen.
When will their glory fade +!
o, the great search they made
From cellar to dormitory,
In a proud blaze of glory,
All the world wonders
Twenty-four to nineteen
Honor the Nunnery Committee,
Gallant seventeen.
On to the Norfolk House,
Mine host will provide:
Refreshments are needed:
It's tiresome to ride.
Charge then, this turkey-that ham,
Charge the bills to the State,
We're fighting for glory and-Sam.
Then backward they rode,
Each to his place of abode,
The noble seventeen! J. L. S.
