Not to AdmirA.

nj THE BARD oy TeWBR HALL.
Not to admire /" an ancient sage
Made this his principle Of action,
And thought himself behind bis age
II he at aught showed satisfaction.
He deemed 1t worthy of child
Or Of simpleton, to be
by any earthly sight beguiled,
Into sstonished eestaoy.
But had his lot chanoed In our time,
think he scarcely could have seen
Some modern speotRoles sublime,
And kept an apathstic mien.
II he on Tower Hall had gssed,
That so mejestically does rise,
he would, undoubtedly, have praised
30 fine buildings grace and size.
Or even II his stoio pride
Resisted this impressive sight,
He must, on vieWing the inside,
Have given way to his delight,
To look on such a mighty mass
OF Well-mAde Clothes, in order placed,
Adapted to each social class,
To every age and every taste.
We hAye BY far the largest and best Rssori
ment of Clothing in Philadelphis, to which larg
dsily additions are made. keeping it full an
fresh At all times.
