FOR THE DEMOCRAT.
OUR COQUETTE.


Yes, must own, her fettering tongue
Has sealed my gloomy fate,
Whose heart beat wildly when she sung
The airs she learned of late.
From childhood have seen her grow
Have feasted on her smiles
While like an adept she could throw
Coeuetry on in piles.
Like mustang On his native plains,
I've rear'd against her charms
Would fee the hand that held the reius.
And trembled with alarms.
She then would play the tabby.oat,
Toy'd with me as her mice;
Shed loose me as too small rat
To stay her stomach nice.
When freedom did strive to gain,
Her glances off would throw
Id try her "magic cord" in vain,
But find it was ''no 60"
she, like the savage, always arm'd,
Delights in teasing life;
And l, poor dolt, who saw no harm,
Soon felt her scalping knife.
I've seen the scalr-string of this shrew,
With trophies strung, score
Clerks, lawyers farmers, doctors too
Some twenty-five or more
And |, poor fool, with Judgment blest,
Charm'd by her honied song,
Full soon was hampored like the rest
Dragged by the neck along
She vow'd she lov'd me-simple dolt,
swallOw'd every VOW;
followed like long-ear'd colt;
Alas what an now!
The laughing stock of all the town.
On whom all eyes are bent;
With spirit of sucking hound,
As e'er on two legs went.
How blinded Oft is silly man,
When once of love the slave,
lie fawning licks the tyrant hand,
When reasons voice would save.
Then from the learn'd lesson learn,
Nor from advice depart
If wOman's side you do not spuru,
You'll 1ie with broken heart.
AT least, if you would save your hide,
Pass BY this coquette fair;
If you do not, be sure your pride
Will catch the - there.

dRATUIToUs ADVERTISING.-Th follow.
ing notice from the Prairie News, should be
read by everybody, Just imagine yourself
an editor doing all in your power to '.live
and let live" and you may be able to appre.
ciate it:
Some people there are who are so limo.
Gently simple as to believe, or affect to be
lieve, that the editorial columns of a news,
paper are public property in which every
society, every school, and every meeting has
special interest that entities it to special
right to be blown into notoriety or pufTed
into public favor. Preambles and resolu.
tions, no matter how long or of how little
general interest they may be, individual
pulls, business nnouncements-alI are ex.
pected to be printed, gratis. We have, to
some extent tried to dsabuse the public
mind of this hallucination. It is ali yery
well to argue that an editor must fill his
paper with something, and that such things
will "hll up" as well as anything else but
be it distinctly understood that we possess
and intend to exercise, the right of being
the judge of whatever matter is likely to be
of most interest to our subscribers. We
pay for every line of type that is set up in
this Office, and no one can reasonably expect
us to pay for the setting up of type for his
pecuniary benefit, without paying US for the
space he wishes to occupy. In cities a man
would as soon think of going into a store,
and ask the proprietor to give him a suit Of
clothes, as to step into a printing Office and
ask the editor to give him a notice that
would benefit him pecuniurily. In the
agrarian districts, however, it is little
different; but printers, like other mechanics,
must be paid for their work, Money is as
necessary to the steady going of printing
Office as are wheels to the running of cart
AS man we treat our fellow men with
the same degree of courtesy and kindness
they extend to us; as a printer, we will
mcte out justice to those who are just to us.
