themselves to the bent of their inclinations-
There was no drawback. The music was excel

THE SONGS OF SAMUEL.

had dream the other night
When everything was still;
dreamed ] saw young SAMUEL
A coming down the hill,
A monst-ous flea was in his ear,
A brass knuck in his eve:
Says he-'Pm getting ont of here, -
Pope-fearers, let us fly"
o Pope-fearers, strn
Don't you cry for me,
Pm going up Salt River,
With Fillmore on my knee.
The Pope has got us by the neck,
The Dutch have found us out.
And if they should get hold of us,
They'd make us into krout.
The "Sags" have all the Offices,
For which we were designed,
And if we cannot "purge the polls"
We'd better be resigned.
Oh Gyrett Davis,
thought you said that we,
Intense A-mer-i-cans,
Should rule A-mer-i-kee.
We asked the "Sags' to draw their man,
But then you know they wouldnt
And now we've carried cen State,
Alas for more VIC couldn't.
Oh 3! had they put on Philip Moore,
And Jimmy Buck rejected,
And Philip had got Jimmys votes,
Then Philip were elected.
Oh Fillmourners,
Don't you cry for me,
Pm going up Salt river,
With Sambo on my knee.
