A SAD BUT TRUE TALE.

Miss Flora Gushing was by all acknowledg-

And many scene of slpendor grand was by
her subjects seen;
AS she went so the robs all went-whate'e
she did was we'll
She Joined the Saratoga ring, and soon be-
came the belle.
Her form and face were faultless. her name
without stain,
Her dress was locomotive-like, it had so long
train;
But dire misfortune seized the girl and caus-
ed her mournful end;
Disease it took her Off right straight-'twas
called the Grecian Bend.
She grew much worse, yet she received not
pity but abuse
Anu though she never had looked fast, they
said she then looked loose;
Her parents were in deepest grief-their
hearts with pain were rent
Yet still the girl with Grecian Bend kept fol-
lowing her bent.
AT last when she found that her ways her
friends and parents troubled,
And that her form lost half its charms, al
though she thought it doubled.
she said henceforth she'd stand erect-which
when she tried to do,
Shed grown so stiff that, in one word, the
damsel broke in two
