THE TINES.
A voice of lamentation
Is heard on every hand
a fearful Consideration
+ broadcast thro' tho land.
The people 'gainst the currency
Are waging direful war,
Aud waIllng. of the " WILD CAT"
Are coming from afar.
All Ger the western waters
i heard the dismal cry.
And on The distant Prairies
Who Will the fact deny
The people and the currency
Are at it day and night
The people and the currency
Are in fearful plight.
Up North among the Pineries
The walling Is begun,
And where Is dug the mineral
There there. they're at 1t strong
The people and the currency
Are in serious fuss,
The deas where issues WILD Car
Are in dreadful muss.
In city or IN country
In village, or III shop;
Or on the iron thoroughfares
Where e'er the cars may stop;
The people md the currency
Are found in earnest strife
And heaps aud heaps of = WILD CAT"
Is gaspIng out is life.
A while ago this currency
Was call d a handsome thing
a while ago this currency
Did much attention win,
In halls Of Legislation
The wise heads call'd it good.
Aud " WILD Car" Ger the country
Came rushing like a flood
In every place of merchandise,
In every paltry store.
The people clutch'd the currency.
And anxious were for more
They gleefnlly encouraged it,
They said. d" j, cannot tail =
But 10 the money coniurers
Have fiercly ,tu5'd It's tail.
And now this stub tail curreacy"
Is look'd on with disgust.
And every pic'ur'd paper thing
Is Ioath'd in great distruss.
The peoples Indignation, TOO,
Is heard in every street.
And oh what dismal face ono
AT every turn does meet.
Dup'd by the soft palaver
TIE people went to--vote;
Then oh how very rapidly
The ,oi!G cat was afloat.
Mere bogs assumed dignity.
And claim'd r NOTING rank:
And Toady sw amp holes valiantly
Became a " WILD Car" Bank.
Alas alas how eauly

Ala5 alas how easily
Poor voters may get trool'd
And in their legislation.
And Senate halls, and tha',
Let loose upon the country

To teach us common sense:
