feat preceded by De:
OfRebe Rams, or, better say
Ram-po,ts strown o'er the watery way:
0UPoliticians, all intent
On serving Self-and Government:
OF Major Generals displaced,
Or, as their friends would say disgraced:
Of Proclamation which, to-day,
Strikes Afrc's heaviest chains away:
Ofmosr str,ivnr5os ssaaios oI Drag,
With but a single game Of Bag:
Ofspeoie none, and in its stead
shinplasters thick, but g. nary Ted:"
Of Prices running up so high,
That Folks 81 little short" can't buy;
OF Draft, which speedily creates
stiff knees stiff necks, and stiff-icates
Of fat Contractors, prompt and and quick
To serve their country-Sonte trick:
Of State Elections, going-wel,
The Carrier of course will tell
ofDemocats in luck again,
Like Seymour, Brooks and & brother Benz
Ofhow The HERALD lives and moves,
As every Daily Issue proves
Of these and more the Carrier sings,
Asronnd the world his fghthe wings.
Dear Friends, ask your gracious leave,
As now again my rhymes weave,
To tell you, if you choose to hear
The Tale of the Departed Year.
OLD sIxrY-Two unenvied
He wears upon the Scroll of Fame,
For human hearts with sorrow swell,
AS on his sickenng deeds they dwell
His coming, as all well know,
Was over mountain-piles ofsnow.
Twas snow in kitchen, snow in shop,
With roads, as statesmen say, "tlptop"
A thorough Democrat was he;
A leveler, to some degree
