Poetry.
A Railway Esaiind.


Judy "a literary thorn in Mr.. Punchs side)
publishes the following Tom Hoedish ballad
of john Guinne IS, or the Railway Porter
John Guinness was an freshman,
About tive toot or shorter;
Ge was stout of limb, and he was called
The little Dublin porter.
Nov, john he loved Maria Brown,
ANA !on$ed Ok 10 be by her;
HOY HAPPY would be-" said he,
II could wed Maria
Bu! when he tried } tel! her so,
he found his spirit failed him;
And then he drank such los of beer,
That people asked what allied him?
1t happ'nd that, with her traps and trunks,
Once CANA Maria fair,
10 travel by the Dublin line,
10 get some change of air
On her the porter fixed his eyes
(his heart was rent with pain,
Aud, dOublin' up his courage, ran
And caught her by the train.
She jumped inside, and screamed aloud
"Bsgonel care not for thee:
He stood beside the door and cried
Maria, a-door theep'
lie needed not the station-beII
But got inside the carriage:
re hoped to ring sweeter BELLE
us thoughts We're all of marriage.
tnou knowest," said he. 81 love thee we'll;
Why need this repeat?
And, on my sole, lay, to boot
Ny fortune at thy feet!
Maria, love, thou art by far
1he sweetest lass that could be,
And, by the light of LUcifer,
U! what match we should bel"
"Ol john" she cried, "thls is some trap
For me to tumble in"
by Jove!" cried he, although e is rum
1swear il is no gin;
by thy dear sa cred sell, swear,
There Is no art in me,
Except the cart beneath this shirt
That beats and pants for thee"
Thy words" quoth she, "are all ia vain;
Thou hast been tar m.scarrled;
For, by st. Bride, I'll speak the truth;
I'm married John, I'm married."
"ol cruel, false, and tickle maid,
by thee, a-lass! I'm undone''
Tha train beside the platform stood.
And, lo they were in London.
