BILL ENGLISH'S DREAM.
A PARODY.

In slumbers Of midnight one Bin English lay,
His documents scattered and tossed BY the wind;
But speech WON and weary, his cares few away,
And visions Of happiness danced DER his mind
He dreant ofhis kolr, down in dear "lltils Seot,H
His picture in Harper, his roaSsEfsl HBiIl;S
And he thought, in his hent. as he lay his cot,
That the world couidn1 match hun for wisdom ard hf
Then Fancy, her magical PiniOns spread out
And bads Billy BnsEish IN ecstasy rissi
Now, Ear, far behind him, his home down in Seosi'
And the White House Washington blesses bis eyes.
Now, stately he steps, with an unusual "swen,"
And presently reaches The door Of the Han;
All trembling with transport be rings the dOOr-bsI,
And the voices Of loved ones reply to his call.
A Jesse bends DER him with looks Of delight, e.
His cheek is impsarld with Buchanau's sarz tear.
And the lips of yosng Bill, in lOve-kiss bnits
With the lips Of one Green, whom his bosom holds dear
The heaFt Of The sleepsf beats high in his breast
Joy quieksns his pulss-his haraships seen DER.
